The Wicked Genie

Darryl was running around the beach picking up sea shells. Just then, he saw a green bottle. As he opened it, there was a whistling sound and smoke. Through the smoky haze, a huge bluish green form appeared before him. “Command me, O master,” said the genie. Darryl asked the genie for a big electric car and lo, there it was! “All you have is mine now.” asked the genie next. “What do you mean?” asked Darryl. “I granted you a wish. Now, you are bound to me,” said the wicked genie. Darryl was terrified. “Fine,” he said. Then, he led the genie to a little tunnel among the rocks. “I live here, but you are too big to get in. Why don’t you get into the bottle? Then I will crawl in,” said the smart boy. “Okay,” said the genie and went back into the bottle. Immediately, Darryl closed the lid and threw the bottle into the deep sea.
