It was a Sunday afternoon when Erik was at a Dog Park with his puppy, Scrappy. Scrappy was a gray pit-bull and had a white collar. He was about 2 feet tall and weighed about 60 pounds. Erik was a type of kid that loved his dog and would always take Scrappy to the Dog Park to play with him and give him his walks. They were playing fetch, when all of a sudden, Scrappy got lost. Erik had no idea where he went. He got lost when Erik threw the ball for him to catch and he never came back.

Erik got scared and said,”Oh God, please let me find my dog”.

 He started to cry and asked people around the park if they seen a little puppy. They told him no and he started to panic saying, ”Oh no, Oh no, Oh no”. Erik goes back home and gets help from his family and friends.

An hour passed and Scrappy was still missing. They went back where Erik had first lost Scrappy but he wasn’t there. Erik, his family, and friends split up to look for Scrappy but they had bad luck on finding him. After looking around the park where Erik first lost him they where convinced  that he was no longer in the park. They got back together and went out to look for him in their neighborhood.

Erik said to himself, ”We’re never going to find Scrappy”.

His friend Oscar replied, ” Yes we are, you’ll see”.

They spend hours and hours looking for Scrappy and Scrappy was yet not found. At last they all got tired of looking for Scrappy and decided to go back home. Erik was very sad and disappointed because they couldn’t find Scrappy.

”It was all my fault”, he said, ”If I could of been more careful, this wouldn’t be happening”.  He thanked everybody for helping him look for his dog. As they drove up on the drive way they saw Scrappy waiting for them in the doorstep. Erik was so happy to see Scrappy and said, ”That a boy, I knew you’ll come back”, petting him.

Erik put Scrappy’s leash on and went back to the park to play for a little while. Erik threw the ball and Scrappy ran to get it and brought it back. Erik was happy that Scrappy came back to him, “good boy,” said Erik petting Scrappy on his head.

After playing for another hour it was time to go home, “come here boy!” shouted Erik, Scrappy just sat there looking sad. Scrappy didn’t want to go home, Erik had to chase him around, “stop, sit, stay, lay!” shouted Erick but Scrappy wouldn’t listen. Scrappy got tired and stopped running, Erik was so tired he could barley stand.

Erik had put Scrappy’s leash on and walked home. Once they got home, Erik had just opened the door and Scrappy ran in and jumped on the couch and fell asleep, Erik was so tired, he said,” Oh brother, what a long day it was today”. He went to his bedroom and fell asleep too.

He walked for about an hour already but yet he didn’t find no exit out of this caved. He decided to rest for a while so he went to go sit down in this huge rock. As soon as he sat on the rock the rock broke and he fell into this huge hole as soon as he hit the floor he had knocked out. As soon as he woke up he got up and saw this huge amazing place full of diamonds,crystals,rubies even gold. He taught to himself “If i take this ill be the richest guy on earth!”. He got up he wanted to take all that gold but he couldn’t it seemed to be stuck and he couldn’t it pull it out of the walls. As he was trying to yanked out he noticed something behind him it was shining so he decided to go check it out as he reach to go see what was that shining thing he only saw that it was and old nasty monkey paw he picked it up and kept it he tought it was pretty cool. So he went walking down the small cliff and he noticed a bit of light from an edge of the wall he went to go see and it was unvalibable it was an exit out of the cave forgetting about all the riches he had left behind he got out as soon of possible.

 When he got home he told hes wife everything that had happened so she wouldnt worry. After a meal and a nice hot bath he went to bed and then thats when he remembered about the monkey paw he had found. Later that night he stared thinking about the problems him and hes family been tru so he made a wish that he family would become incredibly wealthy and all of a sudden the monkey paw closed one of hes fingers but he didnt noticed so he just went to bed. The next day hes wife woke him up all excited telling him that they had one the lottery and that they were stinky rich! He couldnt believe it himself and thats when he remembered that he had wished that lastnight while holding the paw of the monkey. Then he had realized that the monkey paw that he had found in that curse cave was actually magical. He decided not to tell hes family about the paw he wanted to keep it to himself or else hes family especially hes wife would think that he is crazy. Later that night hes son was talking about going to a university he wanted to major in being a Doctor. well that university would only accept certain type of people people that actually qualify for going there
