The five kids were walking through the field. A cool breeze blew through as the sun started to set. I wrapped my arms around myself feeling goosebumps on my skin. I looked around and looked over at Diego.
Diego had a large stick he used as a walking stick. He had a tang top on. Cuts on his arm look like he has been out here for a long time. I felt bad for him. He looked tired.
Lewis and Bryon were laughing with each other. They clicked instantly. Lewis was smiling an he was happy. Lewis yelled
"Watch this!" Lewis than tried to do a cartwheel than falling and he laughed than everybody laughed when Bryon started to chase after him. Bryon Than fell and scraped his knee on a nearby rock on the floor. "Are you okay!" Said Lewis running to him checking his knee and Bryon nodded looking upset but than he stood up. Lewis thought for a moment than he saw a huge divot and Lewis stated rolling down it and laughing than Bryon followed him. Diego was looking int he distance with his eyes squinted when you hear. "BRRRRRRR" The sound of a train is coming! Bryon and Lewis got up quickly and they all ran over
"We have to run and jump onto that train coming" he said then pointing at a train as it was driving at us at slow but fast speed.
As the train started to pass. Diego jumped on Than Brianna did. Than Lewis. I was running and i handed Bryon to Diego and Than Diego held his hand out for me to grab and get on. The train was speeding up. The edge was coming up. It came closer the train was speeding up.
A second before the bridge came i grabbed Diego's hand and he pulled me in and i fell on top of him.
I was breathing heavily from running that fast. I got off Diego and got up helping him up. "Are you okay Cali?" Diego said putting his hand on my shoulder. I nodded at him and smiled softly then going and sitting down. I looked over at Brianna and her face was red. She looked furious but upset at the same time. She went to the other side of the cart and sat down sitting in a ball with her head in her knees. I decided to just leave her alone because when she gets upset she tends to yell. I felt bad.
i put my head back on the wall sighing looking up. Bryon layed down on some hay in the cart. "We should all get some sleep." Diego said looking at all of us. Diego than shut the two cart doors. He than layed down on another pile of hay. I looked at him for a bit. I looked away and fell asleep.
