Take the following story aspect and work it into a piece, whether poetry or prose, whether you explore what led up to this place in the story, it begins with the thread, or the thread is merely a tiny aspect of the story that has crystallized around the original image. However you choose to write it, use the following as a jumping off point.
Today's thread is...
You find a mysterious object (which you keep mostly-secret) in a Chuck-e-Cheese ball-pit that sends you on a three week-long mission.
Before you get to far, remember that a) it must feasibly be in the ball-pit, and b) you must be able to leave the area with it without drawing attention.
