ne day, an 8 year old boy named John Smith was having a stroll through the old park, when he saw something that caught his eye.It was a dark path hidden amongst the trees. He was just about to wander of, when he realized what time it was. So he ran back home as fast as his legs could carry him, and by the time he got home, he was all puffed out and out of breath.

Every single thing seemed normal again, he went into the house and checked. ?othing. No sign of the silver chains.? He reported. This must be my lucky day today! Thought John. He decided again tonight that he would go to the park to investigate the path he found early onopen and silver chains where pouring in through the open windows. He jumped out of bed, and out of his bedroom, and ran around the house looking for and empty room. The only room in the house without chains in it was the bathroom.

His parents were waiting for him out side. ? w what happened, John?? his mum stammered. ? don? know mum, but I sure wish the chains would go away!? Just as he finished the sentence, all the chains suddenly disappeared.
