Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They found a lot of bugs, like ants, worms and beetles. They put them in a jar and watched them crawl.
"Look at this bug, Lily!" Tom said. He pointed to a bug that was different from the others. It had six legs, two wings and a long tail. It was black and shiny and had red spots on its back. "It is so pretty!"
Lily looked at the bug and nodded. "It is pretty, Tom. But I don't know what it is. Maybe it is a new bug. Can we keep it?"
Tom smiled and said, "Yes, we can keep it. But we have to be careful. Maybe it can bite or sting. We have to give it some food and water and a name. What do you want to call it?"
Lily thought for a moment and said, "How about Spot? Because it has red spots."
Tom agreed and said, "Spot is a good name. Let's go and find some food and water for Spot. Maybe he likes leaves or flowers or bread."
They left the jar on the grass and ran to the house. They did not see that Spot was not happy in the jar. He wanted to get out and fly away. He used his tail to break the lid of the jar. He flew out and looked for a place to hide. He saw a big tree and flew to it. He landed on a branch and saw a lot of other bugs. They were green and had no wings. They were eating the leaves of the tree. Spot was hungry and decided to eat them. He used his tail to sting them and make them fall. He ate them one by one. He felt good and grew bigger and bigger. He became enormous.
Tom and Lily came back with some food and water for Spot. They looked for the jar and saw that it was broken. They looked for Spot and saw him on the tree. He was enormous and scary. He saw them and flew to them. He opened his mouth and showed his teeth. He wanted to eat them too.
"Run, Lily, run!" Tom shouted. He dropped the food and water and ran to the house. Lily was scared and followed him. But Spot was faster and caught her. He stung her with his tail and made her fall. He ate her in one bite. Tom saw this and cried. He ran to the house and locked the door. He hoped that Spot would go away. But Spot did not go away. He spread his wings and flew to the house. He broke the windows and the roof. He found Tom and ate him too. He was full and happy. He flew away and looked for more food. He spread his terror to the whole town. No one was safe from Spot. He was the baddest bug ever. The end.
