  1. Story (continued)

    Once upon a time there were too young doctors stealing dead bodies out of the grave yard to experiment on them.

    (continued from previous page)
    The two men came into the car. The driver began to drive and the other man sat beside the corpse as he thought. When they went a piece one of them put his hand on the dead body and said "Hi Paddie he s getting warm." The man answered "If you were where I was you would be warm too." The two boys jumped out of the car and away. Ever since that they never stole any dead bodies.
