Once upon a time, in a magical world full of talking vehicles, lived a sleepy dog named Milo. Milo loved bones more than anything else. One day, he found a sparkling bone that was different from any other bone he had ever seen.
As soon as Milo touched the bone, he was whisked away to a new part of the magical world. He found himself in a bustling city full of talking vehicles. The first one he met was a big, red, talking fire truck.
"Hello, I'm Milo," he said, trying to hide his fear. "I'm a fire truck, but I've forgotten how to work properly," replied the fire truck sadly. The city was in chaos because the fire truck couldn't put out fires anymore.
Milo decided to help, even though he was scared. He asked the fire truck to explain what it used to do. "I used to spray water to put out fires," said the fire truck. "But now, I can't remember how to do it."
Milo thought hard. He remembered seeing a fire truck in his world. "You need water to put out fires," he said. "Do you have a water tank?" The fire truck nodded. "But I don't know how to fill it up," he admitted.
Milo had an idea. He found a big hose and connected it to a water source. "Now, try to suck in the water," he instructed. The fire truck did as Milo said, and his water tank was filled.
Next, Milo asked, "Do you remember how to spray the water out?" The fire truck shook his head. Milo thought again. "Maybe you need to push the water out with force. Try doing that."
The fire truck tried, and to everyone's surprise, water sprayed out! The fire truck was so happy that he started to dance. But then, a fire broke out in a nearby building.
