A Bird Calling

Chapter 5

Into The Woods

"Peter! Peter! Wake up!" Missy hissed as she shook Peter awake. Peter slowly pulled himself up.
"Oh, we're goin' tonight?" Asked Peter. He got up and grabed a suitcase out of his closet.
"You packed. The point is for them not to see we're gone and you took half your cloths?" Missy squinted and pulled the suitcase away from Peter. "Unpack and pretended you never left." Missy was wearing her purple lace nightgown.
Missy threw the suitcase on the bed that lay in the middle of the room. She grabbed peters wrist and pulled him out the door.

They reached the edge of the wood that lie to the left of their house. Well it's not so much of a house. Try mansion, Missy thought. She still hasn't let go of Peter's wrist. She quickly snapped her hand to her side and walked into the woods.
Peter followed close behind, probably hoping not to be killed. I understand how he feels. Missy thought. Wolves.
They where her most feared fear of all. A terrible being. Missy closed her eyes as she remembered the time her orphanage was attacked by wolves. Mia, a small girl from the orphanage, huddled up close to her in bed, when a bark came out of nowhere. She screamed and Missy huddled up closer to her and then she went blank.
"Okay. Let's go. We need to get out of here before sunrise!" Said Missy pulling Peter into the woods.
