The Treasure Box

The boy casually walked along the flawless sandy beach.As he strolled he observed the bright sun and the cloudless sky above .The sun beamed down onto the water , casting a sparkling shimmer,glinting  as the rough sea moved in rythmic motions with the tide .Suddenly his eyes were drawen like a magnet to a shiny object in the sand .Eagerly , he approched the object and stared in awe at a  box ...........Mrs Paton wrote this and i shall be continuing it bellow.

In the sand there lay a wooden box with silver rivets , and copper handels the boy bent down and dusted off the sand and seaweed but the grain clung on for dear life  .Then he noticed  a  golden padlock with a name engraved on it , Mr Jenkins . The  small box had a stripy patteren on it  and a dent on one side .He lifted  it up the stong smell of fish was eyewattering  it had a fousty smell to it , it also had lots of oil stains from where it had soaked through the wood. The box was cold  wet and hard , slimey ,slippery and grain on the box hurt his hands

He was really nosy "he was a nosy as a grandmother".He decided that he had to find that key he searched every nook and krany of that island .Finally he came to Edinburgh and in the town centre he saw a poster saying Kelly's Key Shop Now Open 48 Princess street open Monday to Sataurday eight am to five thirty pm  so he decided to take a look .He walked for  five  minutes then he was there he asked Kelly if she had any keys to fit the padlock he took the box out of his man bag  she put her glasses on  and studied the padlock  with great care  she went into the back shop and came out with a small silk  box and she opened it and a golden key shone in the sun she lifted out the key  and haned it to the boy  that will be one hundered and fifty pounds please  he took out his wallet and  handed her the money.

He sat outside Scott's monument  and had a sandwich and thought about what could be in the box  then he got to exited  and had to open the box  and in it he saw a peice of jewlery and a peice of paper it had written on it "The robbery was succsesfull we got away with the full contents of the safe".He looked back in the box and there was a peral necklace , ruby ring and dimond earings  and lots of golden coins   he wondered to himself  what could he do with the treasure  should he keep it or take it to the police .Finally  he decided to do what was the right thing to do  he walked a short walk to the police station and asked to seen the cheif  the cheif then explaind that if nobody claimed the finding's then he would recieve them .Three weeks passed .He recieved a phone call from the police asking him to go down to the station when he got there the cheif of police , Cheif Ruby  explained that nobody had cliamed the treasure so he got it all and by the time he was thirty five he was a millionare .Lucky Him.
