'Wake up!' Shouts a familiar voice.
'Morning mom.' I say. I open my eye slightly, oh wait I'm not at home. 'Sorry I thought I was at home.' The girls give each other confusing looks. 'Well breakfast is ready, we have prepared a outfit for you. We recycled your old ones and made a new one.' Malaika said. Grace picked it up and gave it to me. 'I know it's pretty ugly.' Whispered Grace. 'Hey, I heard that!' Shouted Malaika. The breakfast looked nothing to what I have. It looked homemade. 'Good morning, how did you sleep?' Asks the mom. 'Good thank you.' Suddenly a belle went. 'Uh oh everyone, get down to the basement!' Said the mom. 'Is there a tornado?' I ask. 'No, I'll explain downstairs.' Replies the mom rushing to the basement. Grace grabs a huge basket of food and drinks and malaika grabs a box of notes pictures and electronics.

The basement is nice. There is one king size bed. 'What's going on?' I ask.
'Okay so once a month the government come down our street looking for us. So we come down here. We covered the lock door with a carpet. I think we're good.' Explains the mother.
'How did you make this basement?' I ask. 'We dug it.' Replies Grace.
'Wow, you guys are really eco!' I smile.
'Thanks, but it's not likely our earth will stay like this.' Replies Malaika sadly. Grace is eating a banana. We hear a door open from upstairs. 'Everyone stay silent, no eating or moving.' The mom whispers. We all nod. 'We will stay here all day, come out come out wherever you are.' Says a voice from upstairs. 'Or your tree will go down.' Says another voice. We all pull worried faces. Oh no. 'What they don't know is that there is a electric force field around the tree.' The mom smiles sneakily. 'AH OW!' Shouts the voices. We giggle. 'Let's go, they all have force fields.' Says the voice. We hear a door close. 'Don't go yet, we never know what plans they might have.' Whispers the mom. Grace was eating and malaika was drawing on a peace of paper. I watch them, malaika is drawing a tree with butterflies. 'Nice drawing' I whisper. She smiles
'Thank you.'

After one hour we exit the door, a belle had rung 3 minutes ago which is a sign to say it's safe. It's all normal again. But my question is how am I going to get back, and am I even alive. Well let's just not worry about that yet. The garden looks pretty safe. The girls carry the baskets back up. 'Why are you carrying a basket of electronics?' I ask.
'Because they don't find them and make more pollution.' Explains the mom. 'Call me Julia' adds the mother.
'Today we are going shopping.' Says malaika. Yay! It's like At home when I went to the shopping mall I got struck. Let's not get hopes up too much. 'Come on. Lets go get changed' says grace. I follow her up.
