The Box

Ten years ago, in the middle of the night, I woke up, and found myself floating on the world’s biggest donut going down a Dr. Pepper river. The donut was warm like it was freshly made. The giant donut was 15 feet tall and 40 feet wide. I had absolutely no idea how I got there.

I realized I was so hungry that I started eating the part of donut next to my ear. I ate a little ways down until I found a tiny room inside the donut. The one thing that caught my attention was that there was a large shaped object in the middle of the room. I tried to get the mysterious object without making the frail donut collapse. I finally got it and it turns out it was a chest made out of donut. I struggled to bring it back up out of the floating donut. I shook the chest and I heard something inside it. It sounded like something small and hard was inside of it. I had no clue what it was.

I could not exactly figure out how to get inside it so I took a big bite out of it. Inside the donut covering was a wooden chest. I thought there was gold in it and before I knew for sure what was inside the chest, I pictured myself buying all sorts of fancy things like a private limo and jet. When I looked more closely I saw it required a word to open it up. I could’ve struck gold but instead I was locked out of my treasure. Then I heard an unusual sound coming ahead of the river.

I looked ahead and found a Dr. Pepper fall. I started trying to slow the donut down by paddling but it was no use, the current was moving too fast and every second the donut would gain speed. I was almost at the top when I looked down and to see the enormous drop. I decided to jump out just before it plummeted down  to avoid the steep drop. I hit the water, I was so happy to be alive, but I soon realized I forgot my treasure. I tried to dive to the bottom but as I just got there I started to run out of breath. I had to hike to a high rock and jump off. I hit the soda again and shot to the bottom faster than a bullet. I felt my way around the bottom and I came across what I thought was my box. I popped up at the surface and I saw that I had found my treasure.

I almost got excited again when I realized I needed to enter a password to get the box open. I started thinking when I realized that I found this chest, in a donut which probably meant the password was donut. I opened it to find a small glazed donut. I couldn’t believe I went through all that trouble for one simple little donut.
