The Purple Ruby
The night was cold and dark, the cruel wind howled fiercely, causing something to shatter in the room next to me. I was terrified, but what shattered? My neck stiffened as I tried to lift my head, but I couldn't! I felt as if I was trapped in a doom dimension and I couldn't get out! Check that, I wouldn't dare try to get out!


My jaw dropped as I heard a faint noise in the background.
"Jessie dear! Jess!"
"Oh Mum! I was in the middle of playing my detective game!"
" Well that will just have to wait, it's time for dinner!"
I struggled to get out of bed, as my forehead still hurt from when I hit it on my bedside table.
"It's steak and kidney pie. Although the steak didn't defrost in time, so it's mostly kidney."
"Yeah, more like kidney pie." I muttered under my breath.
I finished eating and turned the TV on.


The news said that there was a giant ruby found in a cave and I was determined to get it! I phoned my friend Alice to tell her the news and my evil plan. She struggled to digest it.
"My Mum will kill me! I don't want to be grounded for my whole life!" Alice replied with fear and trembling hands, so trembling that she dropped the phone. I just had to go by myself!


I pretended to be an extra short scientist, with orange hair and a tiny brain. Somehow, I pulled it off! The head scientist Poindexter, gave me access to the backstage areas. I sneaked under the curtain (being extra short was a huge advantage)! I stole the purple ruby without anyone knowing. Poindexter sure regretted giving me that key!
