It already seemed about an hour until the lights went out. Ashley was crying. William was saying in his breath "Come on lights. Come back on. We need you."  The lights still didn't come back on. William and Ashley had to deal with it. 

"Wait a second. The candles." Said William. He got out 1 candle and lit it. Ashley had forgotten all about it. When he turned it on, there was another kind of animal. 

They realized it was a snake. "Run! Again!" Said William. And they both ran. They wanted to get away as fast as they could. And that's when they heard a little kid. 

"Help!" Said the kid. William stopped. He lassoed the snake.  He didn't want nothing bad to happen to the little kid. When he got close, he recognized the man. 

It was no other than Looper. "Hey Looper! Pick on someone your own size! Or pick on this snake!" Said William. When Looper saw the snake, he ran away. When Looper was gone, William picked up the girl. 

The girl was only 12, when Ashley and William was 13. "Thank you. My name is Tessa." Said Tessa. That's when something ran into Ashley head. A 12 year old girl named Tessa? She wanted to answer the question, but she would need more information.
