Dear diary,last night I caught the Iron man.

First I wanted to see if I could trap a fox.These days foxes olny come out at dusk.

I thought I could lure a fox into the trap,I found a dead hen and chucked it in the deep,lonely hole.The fox,just walked around the trap.I was very confused.'Oh',then I knew,there was an enormous stomp and a S-T-O-M-P,the tree shook in fear ,it's leafs came trembling down the tree.

A cold shiver ran down my spine.

After a while,it became crystal clear that something was wrong!I turned right nothing,I turned left nothing,I looked straight,there stood the Iron man.While the Iron man was eating the barbed fence,I gulped.I thought to myself.I had a genius idea,I took a knife and a long nail from my pocket.Nervously,I tapped the nail on the knife.CLINK,CLINK,CLINK.It worked!Finally my plan worked.The Iron man loudly walked to me.

Sweat dripped down my spine.I didn't dare to run!The Iron man fell down the deep,dark hole.As fast as a cheater,I ran to shout for all the farmers to come out.

Later that day,we had a celebration trapping the Iron man.Meanwhile I could hear the Iron man struggling to escape the hole.Now I understand,the Iron man was kind.Personally I feel bad,sorry for the Iron man. I felt so guilty for him. Why did I trap him? I dont really know. I think I wanted to impress all the farmers. Anyways, in my opinion the Iron Man didn't want to harm anyone he just wanted some food.

Till next time diary,

Catching the Iron Man!
