Once upon a time there was a fireplace. It was dry and needed some polishing. So, a boy went to the fireplace and polished it with some old rags. It got very shiny until suddenly it sparked, and the sparks started a fire. 
The boy was very scared and tried to put out the fire with some water, but it was too big. He called for help, but nobody came. Soon the flames were getting bigger and bigger, until they were too big to stop. 
The firefighters arrived too late and the whole house was on fire. The dry fireplace had caused an enormous fire. The boy was very sad he was not able to put out the fire in time. He sadly watched as the fire burned the house to the ground.
