Chapter 3-

Dylan and I walked through the forest. I looked around there was something different about today. There are hardly any animals out today.

                " Did you notice?" Dylan asked.

                " The animals?"

                " yes..."

We looked at each other.  

                " I'm going up," I said.

                " Going where?"

                " The tree."

We walked around trying to find the highest tree with the sturdiest branches.  We walked around for a good ten minutes then came across one.

                " Their!" I pointed to a tree.

I ran towards it and made my way up. As I climbed I looked down and saw Dylan looking up at me. i stopped for a second to catch my breath.

                " Dylan! How high am i?" I screamed.

                " About twenty feet!"

I looked down and then sprawled backward and grasped onto the tree trunk. I have never been this high up a tree so far.

                " Laura be careful!" I heard him screech.

                " Don," I mumbled.

I couldn't scream, because I couldn't catch my breath to. I looked up into the branches and continued going. I reached my hands up and grabbed onto a branch and I started to lift myself up and then the I heard the branch crack. I was dangling in the air and I looked up and saw it start to crack. My eyes widened and I felt adrenaline flow through my body. 

                                The branch cracked and I fell and reached out for any branch within reaching distance. I grabbed onto a branch to my right and gripped onto it and banged against the trunk of the tree and hit the top of my head and I felt blood drip down my head. I was clenching onto the branch and then I heard a whole bunch of ruckus and looked over to my right and saw all of the hovercrafts. They were huge! It looked like you could fit thousands of people in there. Maybe even a million. I saw people crowded around it, and someone else start to get on the ship. They're all going on the ship. Why?

I started to climb down once branch at a time. My head dripped with more blood and I felt a little dizzy. I was about a foot off the ground and then I missed a branch and fell next to Dylan.             

                " What happened to you!" he cried.

                " There is a hovercraft... people... people are getting on it." I gasped.

He looked around and saw the top of the huge silver hovercraft.

                " What the?" He mumbled.

I touched my forehead and then Dylan helped me up.

                " We must get home right know!" He said.

I nodded my head and slowly stood up and I stumbled through the leaves. We walked to the farm and dozens of people flew past us going towards the hovercraft. I then saw my parents, sister, and brother running towards us.

                " WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?" My ma gasped.

                " In  the woods," I said.
