Lost and Alone

CHAPTER 4

"Love you, Mark. Bye," I yell as school ends.
i have to wait for my parents so i wait inside. They walk in with Matthew and Matt, my nephews.
"Lets go, Marianne. We have a surprise for you at home," my mother says.
"Coming!"
We walk outside to see a giant coyote and hawk watching the front doors. There is a giant ring of coyotes surrounding the school. we slowly walk back into the school.
"What are we going to do!"
"Well, we arent going to panic, mother. I'll go see if there is a way out of here." i say as i run down to the other end of the school. I came back.
"There is a gap in the coyote circle, if i hurry i might be able to make it through before they notice me." I gasped, panting.
"Fine then, but Maria," I paused in mid step and turned toward my dad, "Be careful. Your mother and I love you very deeply."
"I will," I said. Then I ran off. I was back before you could blink. "I am too late. The gap closed. There is only one way to settle this." and with that I walked right out of the building.
