This story talks about a man (Daniel) who's a locker. He has a family. His daughter (Elisabeth) hears one night a shot and she was scared. But Daniel tells her a story about a fairy and he gave to her a magical layer to protect her.

Daniel came to Jean Cabot's house to put a new lock. But Jean says to his husband: that this man could give the keys to his friends and they could enter the house. But Daniel hear all the conversation and he gives the two keys.

The next day he came to the Indians shop to put a new lock. Daniel says to the seller that he must changes the door because he can't put a new lock and the car-jackers can enter. The seller doesn't listen to him and that night the car-jackers steal in the shop. The seller was very upset and very angry. He follows Daniel to his house and when he gets off the car the seller points the gun to him. Suddenly he shoots the gun and the bullet goes to the back of his daughter. But when the seller bought the gun and the bullets he didn't know that he bought false bullets. And the daughter said “ It's OK daddy, I'll protect to you with my magical layer”.
