“Come on Spencer!” The young girl padded her knees happily as a small gold retriever puppy galloped over to her. “Come on, gimmie the ball!” She giggled and tried to pull the ball away from the pup’s mouth. As she wrestled with the small pup she heard so rustling in the bushes near the hole in the fence. “Uhg, rabbits.” She scoffed as she walked towards the rustling. She pushed the bushes away with her hands and found a little, old, dirty garden gnome. She rolled her eyes and reached out to push it aside when it let out a ferocious screech. The girl fell back in surprise and stared at the little man with wide eyes. “Y-you’re alive?!”Her voice trembled. “Of course I am child, all gnomes are.” Its voice was shrill and unnerving. The little man treaded towards her slowly as she was frozen in fear. “I’m going to make a deal with you.” He has a sort of sinister grin on his face. “What kind of deal?” She was trying to keep her voice from shaking but you could tell it working at all. “Well.” He paused. “I propose you allow me to take anything I want at any time and any place from you. . . .” “No.” She interrupted. Slowly her fingers felt the soft grass searching for anything to grasp in her hand. “Don’t disrespect me!” He growled as he shook his little chubby finger in her face. “If you don’t give me what I want, I’ll tell everyone what you have done. She swallowed as her fingers rested upon the wooden handle of a shovel. She gripped the handle firmly and said softly. “Well . . . here’s your answer.” She quickly jumped on to her feet and swung the shovel towards the evil little gnome. The shovel collided into him and smashed him apart sending pieces of his body everywhere. She dropped the shovel on the green lawn and walked towards the porch. “That fixes that problem.” She brought out a hose. “Now to clean this porch!” She slowly rinsed the wooden porch cleaning it of her sins.
