But he did want to see it though, it was a castle he got to see it and everything, including the silver knight. He had a dagger, a sword, and great armor. He really did like the present and the main tour, but he just didn’t want her to go. That same night,William and his stuffed bear (named bear) picked up the knight and touched him in one way… he woke up. “Ouch!!!!”William yelled. The knight covered his ears from the yell.

“Oh, I am truly sorry for yelling my dear knight!” he whispered. The knight spoke “What?” I said ”How about this, I speak softer and you speak louder. OK?” William said the knight agreed “ I am William, who are you?” “ I am the silver knight or also known as Sir Simon.” the silver knight said “ and you have broken a curse that Alastor put on me.” “ Who’s Alastor?” I said
