It was an accident! It really was! I found it on my daily stroll, I wasn’t specifically searching for it! It was on a hot summer’s day, when water was scarcer than ever. I had simply been on my way to work at the muggy office when I came across it. A small hole, one that no one would think twice of, hid treasures, and my watch as well. It had been flung off my wrist, and it had toppled right into the hole. Of course, I wouldn’t fit in it, so I had run home to grab a shovel and make the hole a bit wider. I had jumped in, praying that the ground wasn’t too far down, and yes, I knew it was stupid to do such thing, but that watch had cost me a year’s earning, and I wasn’t letting it go to waste. Luckily, what I had seen at the bottom of the hole had merely been some water, creating the illusion that it was dark, and making me assume that the end was far down. Wait… WATER!? I had been so stunned that I allowed the water to carry me along. However what I didn’t know was that at the end of my ride, a lethal waterfall was waiting. I had closed my eyes and hoped for the best when I was once again, surprised to find a soft landing. I opened my eyes, scared of what I might find, but there was nothing near that seemed menacing, so I began to explore. I had figured out that what I landed on was a soft mushroom, that was bouncy too! Of course, after exploring, I couldn’t help but drink some of that cold refreshing water… it was so tempting!

I sigh and think to myself, “I hope the Judge will enjoy my speech at the trial.”
