Bob, an alligator mole, was busy labeling his collection of pebbles when he noticed something unusual in the corner of his burrow.

He squinted his little eyes, trying to make out the shape of the strange thing. It was scaly, and seemed to have pointy teeth. Bob felt a shiver of fear.

Gathering his courage, Bob decided to investigate. He cautiously approached the strange thing, his heart pounding in his chest.

As Bob got closer, he realized the scaly thing wasn't moving. It was inanimate, but the pointy teeth still looked dangerous.

Bob carefully dragged the scaly thing to the central chamber of his burrow. Under the better light, he saw it was not as frightening as he had thought.

Upon closer inspection, Bob realized the 'teeth' were just sharp edges of the thing's body. It was just a piece of scaly skin, not a creature!

Relieved, Bob laughed at his initial fear. He decided to keep the scaly thing as a reminder of his little adventure.

Bob labeled the scaly thing 'the scaly intruder' and placed it among his collection. He was proud of his bravery and the new addition to his collection.

The incident made Bob more alert. He was more curious about his surroundings, ready for any new 'intruders'.

Bob the alligator mole continued his daily routine, but now with an extra sense of wonder and a dash of bravery.

That night, Bob slept soundly, the 'scaly intruder' silently sitting among his collection, a symbol of his bravery and a testament to his adventurous day.

Bob's love for labeling things had led him to an unexpected adventure. It made his peaceful underground life a little more exciting and a lot more interesting.
