MR. MEREDITH ' S Caterpillar - Andrew Taft. I opend the box and Zip I fell down a trap door and then I heard a BANG and the door closed then the trap door shut. But it was not dark because torches lit up the walls. Spiders were crawling up and down the walls. Ahead of me there was a dark tunnel, so I started off down the dark tunnel. At the end of the tunnel there were some steps going up and at the top there was a door. So I went on up the steps and opened the door and there was a big room with a green dragon. In one comer beside him was a door I crept passed him and when I stepped through the door there was some steps going down and a door. So I went down the steps and through the door. I was shocked by a big flash of light then I saw swords, jewels and diamonds. It was treasure. And I kept it a secret for as long as I lived. - David Charron I opend the box and Growl came out a big big monster with three eyes, four mouths and he has cat wishers and eyes and has grey hair.
