The Mystery of the Stolen Gold

by Billy and Sarah


There was a treasure chest in the ocean. Two burglars were scuba diving and they got the treasure. There were two kids named Billy and Sarah who were detectives. They wanted to solve the mystery of the stolen gold but they could not because the burglars were their Dads!

So the detectives tried to get the gold out of the basement but there was a beehive. They did not want to get stung so they had to be very quiet and still. It did not work so they asked their Dads a question. "What did you get from the ocean.?" The Dads brought a treasure chest. Bill and Sarah knew that there was gold in the treasure chest. They said to their dads, "both of you throw it back in the ocean. It is just a piece of junk."

After they threw it back into the ocean, we asked our dads if we could go but our dads said, "what for?" We said, "fun." Our dads said yes but we could not find the treasure chest in the ocean. We came up to the surface of the water and found an island. We had our scuba diving tanks. Instead we swam on top and relaxed a little bit. Then we found a note and it said, "go to the Atlantic Ocean." First we took our tanks off to get air in them. We put on the tanks after we got more air in them. We scuba dived all the way to the Atlantic Ocean.

We could not find the treasure or the key but we found another island. This time we were right next to it so we just climbed on it. We found another note, and it said, "go to Texas and you might find the treasure key."

Then these guys came in disguise of our dads. We said, "can we borrow the rowboat" but the guys said no. We saw the floats so we used the floats. We did not have to share because they found their own floats. We laid down on our floats and swam after them.

Then Billy pulled off one of the masks. It was a stranger. Then Sarah pulled off a mask and it was another stranger. They had the treasure chest in their boat. We snached the key. Now it is in Billy's pocket. Sarah opened the chest. Then our dads stopped being burglars. Everybody was happy in the end.
