Innocence

Chapter 2

"Oh my gosh."

"Oh my gosh!" I hollered jumping up and down on my basement floor.

"I did it!" I panted.

I looked over at Luna and see her just standing there looking at me. I'm breathing hard just from the rush of the situation..

I am really out of shape..

No comment

"Luna. How are you not breathing heavily? You just ran around that shelf about 5 times." I stated looking at her. She barked at me in response.

"Shhh! Be quiet." I hushed Luna. She quieted down.

Standing in the quiet, I looked around my basement.

"It's like I'm the home alone kid...just with a dog. " I said to myself.

"Luna..what do I do? " I asked slightly panicked. I have a window busted open, and two men in my house.

Luna just sat there looking at me.

"Oh okay.. So just tell me what to do all the time, and then when I actually need-" my sentence was interrupted by a low far away groan. My head snapped to Luna and she growled and ran up the steps.

"Luna?" I asked softly as she left me in the basement darkness.

I tip toed towards the basement stairs when I heard a squeak.

I screamed when something ran by my foot. That's when I looked down and saw a rat running past me.

"EWWWW! LLLUUUNNNNNAAAA!" I screamed as I jumped up on a short shelf.

So much for being quiet.

Hey. I am not perfect

No kidding.

Luna came rushing down the stairs, and stopped at the bottom. She looked around to find me, and once she did, she cocked her head to the side. Her right ear fell over the top of her head as she turned it.

"There's a rat!" I yelled. Luna barked twice. I saw the rat run back in its hole that it came from, and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

Luna then growled and ran back upstairs.

What is she doing?!

I got off the shelf and held my pan. I shuffled my feet towards the light on the stairs. When I made it to the steps, I skipped up them two at a time as I heard Luna's repeated barking. My eyes widen as her barks increase in loudness. I ran passed the basement door, and ran towards the kitchen where I heard Luna barking.. And a high pitched scream?

I swung the door open and saw a cute boy standing on my kitchen counter, screaming at Luna who is on the ground. Luna is barking and growling from the ground, and is trying to jump on the counter next to the boy. I also didn't miss the big red bump on his forehead. He left his crowbar on the floor.

"AHHHH! GET THIS DEMON OFF OF ME! " The boy yelled.

I held up my pan, pointing at him.

"GET OFF OF MY KITCHEN COUNTER! NOW I HAVE TO CLEAN IT AGAIN! " I yelled over Luna's barks.

The boy looked at me in shock.

I looked at Luna who jumped up and got her front paws on the counter.

Another high pitch scream was released, and I looked around the kitchen to find the culprit. I then looked at the boy who had his eyes closed and screaming.
