beating rapidly. 

"I think I will wait until I am older to do that again," he thought to
himself.  "That was really scary."  As he made his way to the ladder he 
noticed the butterfly that he had originally chased into the barn.  
With his arms outstretched he raced after it across the hayloft.  
Suddenly, the floor seemed to fall out from beneath his feet and Troy 
was cast into a dark narrow hole.  He tried to clutch at the sides as 
he fell, but to no avail.  After awhile he landed softly in the hay at 
the bottom of the hole.  Troy looked around quickly trying to find a 
means of escape.  There was no way to escape except for the hole the 
loomed high above him.  Troy's wide eyes started at the opening.  He 
started to cry as he realized that there was no way out. 

'Troy, Troy, where are you?" Troy heard his father's rough voice
calling. 

"Daddy, Daddy, I'm down here.  Help me out," Troy's voice came out as a
tiny squeak.  Troy heard his father's footsteps on the loft above him.  
Then his father's face appeared in the opening above. 

"Now, how did you get down there, you little rascal," Troy's father
said, reaching down and pulling Troy out of the hole. 

"Thank you for saving me Daddy.  I promise I will never go into the barn
alone again,"Troy said seriously.  "The hay loft tried to eat me, but, 
you saved me." 

"What an imagination you've got kid."  Troy's father said as they headed
back to the house.
