Ethan looked around making sure all the windows were locked, his younger sister, around the age of ten, came in and put her mask on. Ethan's Mother walked down stairs "All the windows locked?" Ethan nodded, he fixed his hat with some pride "I finished that fencing job Ma" She smiled dimly, looking outside "Your sister can help you paint it ask the dust storm." His sister, Jackie, cried with frustration "But Ma!" The Mother of the children looked at her with a bit of humor in her green eyes "Your gonna do your part around here Jackie" Jackie crossed her arms with a bit of pity, she rolled her eyes "Yes Ma..." Ethan snickered through his mask, he looked outside "I think the dust is gone" His Mother looked outside "I suppose you two can head back out, ain't doing any harm" Ethan walked up stairs to his room, he took off his mask and walked down stairs with adventure-lust in his eyes, he ran back outside to his bike and started to ride.
As he rode down the dirt path, he saw his friends house, Mac was his name, he curved his bike into the dirt driveway.
