FOX’S CAVE

Daisy the penguin opened her gym locker and was surprised to find a 

heart shape box in it. She looked round to see if there was any one else 

the room. But it was empty

That’s weird I wonder who could’ve put this in here? She thought to 

herself. When she began opening it a bad smell filled the room

Ugh! What’s that smell? She cried out loud then dropping the box onto 

the floor. She bent down but instead of picking it up seeing that there 

was some green smoke coming out of it. Daisy quickly kick the box 

across the floor then grabbed her stuff and ran out of the locker room

After school she met her friends at the local pizza shop and told them 

what happened

Okay let me get this straight someone broke into your locker and left you 

some smelly box. That pours out green smoke when you open it? Tommy 

the tiger cub frowned

I didn’t open it I dropped it on the floor and that’s when the smoke came 

out of it

Why would someone leave something like that? Vicky the dragonfly 

asked

Don’t know but I don’t think it was very funny Daisy frowned

Maybe you’ve a secret admire Sammy the turtle smiled

Or a smelly one! Tommy laughed

Very not funny! Daisy smirked

So where’s this famous box now? Cookie asked

Probably where I left it why?

I want to take a look at it maybe whoever left it also left a clue of who they 

are Cookie shrugged

Soon afterwards they were back inside the locker room

It should be right underneath that bench Daisy said that’s where I kicked it 

to

Are you sure cause its not here Sammy answered after looking underneath it

What? I swear it was there where when I left

Maybe it grew little feet and walked away! Tommy laughed

Remained me to laugh later hey what’s this?

Its just a candy wrapper Sammy shrugged

I know what it is dummy what I meant was something is written inside of it 

Daisy smirked. She picked it up then read the message out loud

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO LEFT YOU THE BOX

MEET ME AT FOX’S CAVE TOMORROW AFTER SCHOOL

Oh wow! It looks like we got ourselves a little mystery to solve! Cookie 

laughed

What do you mean we? Daisy’s the one who received the box

Oh come on Vicky, Sammy’s the one who usually chickens out don’t tell me 

that you believe all those dumb stories about Fox’s cave? Cookie asked

Hey! Sammy cried out

Cookie’s right not only can we find out who left me that dumb box. But this 

can be our chance to prove to every one that the legend of that place. Is 

nothing more then a made up story so what do you say you in ? Daisy added. 

Vicky could tell by the way that Daisy was staring at her that she didn’t want 

to go there either. And she definitely didn’t want to go there alone. So after 

thinking about it for a few more minutes she smiled then said 

I’m in 

The next day they all met in front of Cookie’s house 

So are we ready to go? Cookie asked

Yeah hey Sammy what’s inside the bag? Daisy asked

Umm let’s see I’ve go some snacks, a couple of flashlights and some other 

stuff that I thought we mighty need he shrugged

Gee Sammy we’re only going to there for a few hours not the whole night! 

She laughed

Okay here’s the plan me and Sammy will check out the left side of the cave. 

And you girls check out the right and we’ll meet back here in hour. But if 

you guys see anything just yell Tommy explained as he handed each a 

flashlight

Okay where do you guys want to start? Cookie asked. But the other girls 

didn’t answer her

Umm hello what’s the matter?

Vicky shined her flashlight on the object so Cookie could see it better. 

Standing in front of them was a strange looking monster that seemed

to be growling at them

For a few seconds none of them could move nor speak until Vicky finally let 

out a loud scream and took off running followed by Cookie and Daisy. And 

they didn’t stop running until they got back to Cookie’s house

Ten minutes later the boys showed up 

Hey what happened to you guys? Why did you just take off like that without 

telling us? Tommy asked frowning

The, the Vicky began

The what 

The rumors are true!

Okay will some one please tell us why she’s freaking out

Cookie quickly told them what they had seen inside the cave

Oh wow! Sammy cried out then popped his head inside his shell

Well at least we solved one mystery but I still don’t know who sent me that 

dumb box or why Daisy sighed oh Sammy before I forget here’s   your 

flashlight back

Thanks just put it in the bag

Daisy placed the flashlight inside the bag she was bout to zip it back up. 

When something caught her eye it was drawings of the monster that looked 

a lot like the one they just saw inside the cave

The next day at lunch Daisy told the girls about the drawings 

So you think they planned this whole thing? Vicky asked

Yah Tommy was the master mind and talked Sammy into playing along Daisy 

frowned

I thought it was kina of weird the way Tommy acted when we told him 

what we saw. He had this look on his face like he was trying not to laugh or 

something Cookie added

I can’t believe those little jerks would do this! And think that they can get 

away with it Vicky cried out

Now ladies let’s not get our furs all uptight I say we turn the tables and pay 

them back Daisy answered 

And how are we going to do that? Vicky asked

Daisy leaned in closer to them and whisper her plan 

And you think this will work? Cookie asked

I certainly hope so 

What’s wrong with you guys? Tommy asked noticing that the girls all had sad 

looks on their faces

Daisy lost her ring she thinks she dropped it when we went over to Fox’s 

cave the other day Cookie explained

Oh bummer what are you going to do? Sammy asked

I’ve no other choice I’ve to go back and look for it my mom will kill me if I 

told her that I lost it Daisy shrugged

She then slowly got up and started to walk off followed by Cookie and Vicky 

You guys are not planning on going now are you? Sammy asked

Yah the sooner the better but its okay you guys don’t have to come if 

you don’t want to Daisy answered

Hey Sammy did you take down that cardboard monster from inside the cave 

wall yesterday? Tommy asked once the girls left

Umm I thought you did didn’t you?

Oh great come on we’ve to take it down before the girls get there

A few minutes later they arrived and went straight it

Good they’re not here hopefully they changed their minds

Yah I’ve to handed it to you Tommy we really scared them. Hey did you hear 

that? Sammy asked

Hear what?

A piece of small rock suddenly hit the back of Tommy’s head followed by an 

earth cracking scary scream. Causing them to dropped every thing they were 

holding and ran out

When they got back to Cookie’s house

Good they’re not back now remember Sammy we never left we’ve been here 

waiting for them

A couple minutes later the girls showed up 

Hey did you find it? Tommy asked Daisy

Oh yah I suddenly remembered that I wasn’t even wearing it yesterday. But 

we went over to my house just to double check it was still in my jewelry box 

she smiled

The next day Tommy and Sammy went to the library 

Hi boys there’s a box on the table for you the library aid told them

For us? Tommy asked do you know who left it?

Sorry boys I’ve no clue

They slowly made their way to the table on it was a heart shape box along 

with a message that read

HEY GUYS! WE THINK THAT YOU FORGOT THIS INSIDE OF FOX’S CAVE!

LOVE 

DAISY, COOKIE AND VICKY
