Elizabeth was scared now her mother had been running about the house throwing thing into a bag in a state of panic for the last hour. Ever so often she would stop run to the window stare out for no less that a minute and then continue running about the house. Elizabeth stood at the door holding her teddy by the arm and chewing the sleeve of the big coat she had on. In her six year old mind she was taking no notice of her mothers panic and was thinking about whatever came into her mind for instance at this moment she was thinking about dog and how they where big and scary.
Dogs had always scared her nobody knew why the just did and over the years everyone had just accepted that and thought about the "more important stuff ".
Nobody really paid much attention to Elizabeth. In fact in a good day eight people would talk to her and on a bad day only her mother would talk to her. She wasn't really worried about that though as she was only six.
