Hello again!!

I have decided there will be 5 chapters to this story and each chapter will be roughly around the same length as the first one, I did tell you it would be short :)

-------

I was shaking my best friend, she was gone, I was now alone in the dark foggy park. I didn't know what to do; I was in too much shock I physically couldn't move. Something snapped me out of my shock; it was the wind making the swings knock against the pole, at least that's what I thought it was.

I started running as fast as I could, I needed to get home and tell somebody what had happened. I ran and ran, it was dark and cold, I was scared, what if somebody grabbed me before I could get home and tell somebody about Ashley then no one would know what happened, all these thoughts were running through my mind as I ran through the cold dark foggy streets.

I eventually arrived home my mum was scared that something could of happened to me "these streets are no place for a 14 year old girl at night" she told me as I sat down on the lounge crying. I told about her what happened to Ashley and explained why I was home late, my mum was crying and worried anything could have happened to Ashley.

Mum said the best thing to do was tell Ashley's parents everything that had happened, so she drove me around to Ashley's house.m I told her parents what had happened and explained everything that I knew, they were crying, all of us were why wouldn't we be I had lost my best friend and they had lost their daughter, we may never see her again.

From there we decided it was best to tell the police, it was all up to them. A few days had passed and everyone was miserable, it was everywhere; all the news channels were talking about Ashley asking if anyone knew anything.

Around about 5 weeks later

About 5 weeks had passed the police had found nothing yet, well if they had found something they hadn't told us yet, we still had no idea where Ashley was. We were all scared for all we knew she could have been anywhere badly hurt or worse dead.

About two weeks after Ashley was abducted another child was reported missing from the same area. This time it was a six year old boy named Mitchell who lived down the road from the park, he had gone there with his 15 year old brother Kyle at around about 5pm, Kyle had looked away for less than 30 seconds and Mitchell was gone.

School had crept up on me, the holidays were over without me even realising, I wasn't ready to go back to school the next day but I knew I had to. In the morning I dragged myself out of bed, my mum had already left for work, so I put some music on while I got ready to try and lighten up my mood, I was dreading going back to school without Ashley.

School was boring, I had no one to talk to I just sat there staring into nowhere thinking.

About 3 months later

There were now about 8 children missing in this small town, including Ashley and Mitchell, kids ranging from ages 6 to 14. Parents were told to not leave their children unattended and not let them go to the park by themselves because this kidnapper was taking every child he/she could get. Some people didn't listen or just didn't care that is why there were so many children being taken.

It was Thursday today only 1½ days left of school until the weekend. I was sitting in my maths class half listening to my teacher babble on about another thing I didn't understand, I started to wonder what things would be like if I got taken instead of Ashley.

On the way home I decided to go to the park to see where I had lost my best friend, I knew it was a bad idea but I needed to. I texted my mum to let her know but I knew she wouldn't see my text till later.

The park was deserted, it never usually was up until about 4 months ago it was full of kids playing and having fun that was until Ashley, Mitchell and the others went missing now only a few people come here and it seems that most of the people that come here get taken.

I walked up and sat on the swing just slightly swinging looking at my feet. The wind picked up a bit I was off in my own thoughts when suddenly someone grabbed me from behind, they put their hand over my mouth so I couldn't scream and before I knew it they had knocked me out and dragged me away...little did I know I had dropped my phone by the swings........
