Chapter 2 The Rescue
“Psst, Peter, Peter, PETER!” Yelled Sam as I awoke from my daydream.
“Hey, you okay?” asked Sam concerned
“Yeah, yeah. I’m fine.”, I said trying to get back to reality
“Let’s get going.” said Sam like nothing had happened.
“Home?” I said furiated.
“No! To the park, you’ve been standing there looking up at the trees.” he said as they were under a large canopy of trees.
“O.K.” After we went to the park I wanted to go home, so Sam and I went to my house. Sam’s parents were out. When I got home, Sam went inside thinking I was with him. I was actually by the mailbox. After school everyday I had to check the mailbox for letters. As I was walking inside I saw a letter, a letter, for me. I opened it up and it read:
“I have your friend, if you want him back bring 500 $ tonight. Town park. Midnight. $500. No funny business, or he dies.”
I was horrified, if I called the police, he would kill Sam, I couldn’t let that happen. I was turning thirteen in a few days and this is what I get. Thanks a lot mysterious blackmailer. So I prepared, I got my dad’s old medieval knife, night-vision goggles, and a whole lot of confidence.
That night I set out. When I was going out the door Oscar (my german wiener/ dachshund dog.) jumped out after me.
“No, Oscar it’s too dangerous.” I said trying to keep him inside
“Bark!” Argued Oscar, still trying to get past me. I thought, if Sam and I were in trouble I could tell him to go get the police. So I let him come with me. We sent off in a sprint to the park. At least, Oscar and I got there in a mere ten minutes. When we got there surprisingly there were signs to where his “Evil Lair.” I said in a girlish voice.
I followed the signs and went down some steps, carefully, because I was scared there were tripwires. After we got down the stairs, more signs pointed the way. Still I watched for tripwires. I ran into a curtain, because I was watching for tripwires. When I opened the curtain I found Sam in a broken electric chair. Next to him there was a man in dim lighting like in a movie, from what I could tell he was cra-cra in the head.
“Sam!”I yelled in relief. But Sam had a Bandana in his mouth.
“What’s with the fedora?” I asked sternly, making myself not laugh.
“Where’s the money, or he’s dead.” He added as I reached in my pocket. This was my two-years-worth saved up money, five hundred dollars.
“Here, now give me Sam.” I said handing it over
mysterious
“Actually, I’m keep the money and kill you both.” He said without showing a glimpse of remorse. I should've seen that when I saw his appearance.
“O.K. , but if you’re going to do that I just don’t want my dog to see this, just let him go.” I said knowing that Oscar would go get the police. And the mysterious man let oscar go.
“O.K. lets what first, who first? He said looking and many dangerous and painful weapons. After an hour of torchering the door bust open, Police! They were here they were saved!
The End
