The teddy bear looked up from the place underneath the Christmas tree,hoping this
year the boy or girl that was going to get
him would be happy,last year he ended up
in the hands of a little boy that kept yelling
at him, swinging him about and throwing him,'
I wanted a b.b. gun wheres my gun you promised,
then he threw the teddy bear into the trash,yuck garbage .Suddenly he heard footsteps,laughter and cheering,it was here, Chritmas Day,the teddy bear prayed it would be a nice little boy or girl. He felt hands on him suddenly as he was picked up, the paper was tore off around him. it was not a boy or girl this time,he felt teeth closing on him,sharp teeth.He didn't feel to good,but at least this dog was careful with him as he carried him in his mouth,dog drool yuck,but better then bein yelled at or torn apart,As the rest of the family enjoyed their Christmas,the dog went outside ,carrying the teddy bear and went into the backyard,he put the teddy bear down started digging a hole and the teddy bear felt uneasy,was this going to be what he thought,suddenly the dog picked up the teddy bear and placed him in the hole burying dirt all over him, the dog then stomp on the mound he made and left the teddy bear,at least with the dog he'll know that he would be back for him, suddenly he felt worms on him ,not to soon for me ,he thought as the dog rejoin his family.end.
