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....

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...

Slowly dark clouds moved upon the town. A storm began to brew....then out of the pitch black came a bolt of lightning killing the squirrel. A note floated down and landed on its corpse. It read "More is coming"....

I took a glimpse of the inside and I saw a chest with a keyhole in it. On top of the chest there was a letter, it read:

"Help me, I have tried searching my mansion but have no luck in finding my lost treasure, if you read this than you will know that I have gone to a better place, find my treasure and it is your's"....

...the tone of the dark enigmatic man's voice sent chills up my spine. i looked up at him as he smirked and extended his pale hand out and waited for me to act. what could of he wanted? was it the paper, i looked closer and held the paper to the moonlight, etched in blood, the title red "death certificate" and then i knew...

With a look over your shoulder at the approaching villan, you shove the letter into your pocket. Treasure hunting would have to wait till later. Now this man chasing you had to be done away with. So with a quick stride you make your way over to the police station. Surely no criminal would risk following you there. But this wasn't any criminal, it was a diciple of the malicious squirrel...

If you're going to post in this topic and have any respect whatsoever for other people, try to post something that will add to the story.

While this vicious squirrel was eating a purple coloured mango, he suddenly had these weird annoyances of people changing a so called "plot" by adding guns and terrorists. At this idea he flippin' lost it! He put on his heman underwear (!) and a turtleneck and started signing macho man. What happens next can only be read through a magic ball that that comes from a chinese restaurant inside of a fortune cookie.
