Would you...

I want to see how creative people can be. Lets write a short, descriptive (adjectives) story about finding some sort of treasure. It doesn't have to be gold, or something. No graal related treasure. Infact, don't include graal alot in your story. Lets see if we can get about eight paragraphs. Two to four sentences in a paragraph. I'll start. Try not to include any Graalian Account nicknames/account names.

One day, I had woke up at about 3:30 PM and walked outside with a warm jacket on. As I was walking down the cold, long, black, ice-covered street, I noticed a small crumpled up piece of paper close to the grass. I walked over to it, bent down a bit and picked it up. I thought it was just trash, but I uncrumpled it and noticed that it said something very eye-catching...

For example, the next paragraph someone writes will say what it said, and go on in more detail.

Quote whoever your paragraph is taking place after. Stick to this, please.

....In fact, it was very interesting. I examined it very closely. It said in tiny print: "Meet at the local docks at 4:30AM (date unreadable), don't forget to bring the money, or you'll regret it!" I thought this was very interesting, I will show this to my friends....

Was I going crazy? Or was my luck running out? What use did this mysterious paper have? I ran to hide in the junkyard...

Suddenly an anvil feel on top of your head and the story goes back to James post.

I had just realized that the piece of paper was an invitation to krahanderman's extravagenza at the zoo! On the way there I walked, hopped, ran, flew, swam, and trotted like an african horse. Once I arrived i had realized that I wasn't even CLOSE to a zoo, but at card kingdom. The next day brought sad faces to me, all because of one little, puny, good for notihng squirrel.

For some reason I found that hilarious.

Now this squirrel wasn't any ordinary squirrel, it was diabolical. The squirrel had escaped from the zoo. His mission? Nuts. This crazed squirrel would stop at nothing to get a nut, and he had a plan. And unbeknownst to you, you have just sprung the first trap in his malicious plot....

The squirrel pulled out a chaingun and ran down the street litterally painting it red, in blood. I ran out with two fourty-four magnums strapped to my waist. I then unholstred them and began firing all matrix style. The squirrel though turned out to be AN AGENT OF THE MATRIX!

...but all in all. The squirrel was a terrorist. He planned to destroy the world! So I ran the squirrel over with a lawnmower...and I start over from the beginning, this time, spending weeks and weeks camping out at the local docks. Waiting to see what would happen...

...As I waited, I began to nod off. It was getting late, and the sun was setting. Shorty after I had fallen asleep, a tall dark figure appeared infront of me. Startled, I scrambled to my feet and waited for him to speak, or any sort of communication...

...It was Bin Laden so I killed him and the US government gave me the "treasure" of 25 million dollars.

The end.
