        As I walked home with Stacey we talked about our life's and how we wouldn't change anything for it. We stopped off at the little shops before entering our neighborhood and looked at all the cool little nick-knacks they had to offer. I saw this pretty little key necklace and reached for my wallet as soon as I could but when I looked at the lady she was shaking her head. I looked down and saw the necklace was already gone. "Shoot!" I said aloud. I really liked it and was hoping to buy it. It was a heart key with purple gems around the silver heart. It would have looked good on me but since it was gone all I could do was sigh at disappointment. As we were walking back we heard a whisper from a bush by an old looking car. We decided not to go anywhere near that but the whisper got louder and we couldn't help but to walk closer to the sound. "Uh hello?" I said trying to look into the bush. "What are you doing? If you hear a weird sound you don't ask who it is, its bad enough we're walking closer to it!" she said almost screaming. I knew she had a point but walked past her arm she had put out to stop me from walking any closer. The sound stopped and so did we. We looked at each other then back at the bush to see a tall man in a black suit standing in front of us. We both let out a scream and I fell on the ground as Stacey tried to kick the man.            "Wow now! Easy does it!" the stranger said putting his hands in the air. "I am a friend not an enemy. I only came to apologize to the young Miss." he said lending me a hand up. Once again we all had taken a step back to examine each other and had a good amount of distance from each other. "Apologize for what?" Stacey and I echoed. "I had bought that ravishing necklace you wanted." he went for his pocket and held out the necklace to show us. I reached for it thinking he was going to give it to me but was shocked to see him pull it away. "I'm sorry Miss but I cant let you have this. Its mine and mine to keep and give." "What do you mean? I want it and you took it so its actually mine." I said taking another look at the necklace. The man seemed to be shocked at my answer and took a breath and quickly said things I couldn't understand since he talked so fast. "For you to say such a selfish thing is proof that you don't deserve this necklace and you should be ashamed for even looking at it. Young Miss I must say you shouldn't be going around and being rude to strangers since first of all you don't even know them or what they are capable of doing. So please I will have to excuse myself and once again apologize for this. Good day to you and you." he had said walking away but only needing two big steps to lose sight of him.              "We are getting that necklace back! That was so rude of him to teas me like that! Are you in?" I had said making my mind up and trying to convince Stacey to go along with the plan. "No you're crazy to have even talked to him I'm not going and you aren't either!" she said in her motherly tone. "Ill give for anything you want and ill buy your lunch for the next week." I said trying my best to have to tag along. I could tell my bribe was working since she took a moment to think about it. "Two weeks."  she replied. "Deal!" I said and we both took off after the man.           I'm getting back whats mine!
