He crossed his fingers and opened the box but then... A leprechaun jumped out and said "Please help us we are in danger of disappearing! “How can I help?" said the boy whose name was Alex. “Take this piece of paper and read the directions very carefully," said the leprechaun, "If you do not do this we will be gone forever. Alex, you are our only hope." With that the leprechaun disappeared, leaving Alex puzzled.

After that, I was very rich.
