Robbi POV

One of the snakes picked me and jhosephina up and tossed us over their shoulders. we both screamed and kicked as the snakes ran away, which surprisingly they had legs! a man in a blue gi ran behind him. he looked like a ninja. we continued to kick and scream. The blue ninja tackled the snake, and caught me before I hit the ground. I have to admit pretty impressive foot work.

He called to a white ninja, he called him Zane. Zane nodded and threw his poky thingies( I have no idea what they're called.) at the snakes feet. the snake dropped jhosephina but Zane was there to catch her.

Both of the ninjas put us down and the one in blue asked me if I was ok. I didn't know what I should say, or if I should say anything at all. After what seemed to be an eternity of silence. I said "w-who are you?" I asked. jhosephina jumped "how about the coolest thing I've ever seen!" she said. now's my chance, while all the ninja were focused on jhosephina I would run away. and run away I did.

I ran away at least a block and turned a corner. the sun was starting to come out. but I didn't stop there I ran further to my fathers business. I walked In and slammed the door behind me. I took a deep breath and walked to my fathers office. I knocked on the door. "dad?" I said opening the door. he was at his desk looking at blueprints for a car. "what is it Robbi?" he said never looking up from his desk.

"I-I.." I stuttered " Roberta I have lots of important stuff to do, are you going to speak or not?" he said. I took a deep breath and sat down in one of his chairs. " I was attacked by snakes today." I said expecting him to comfort me but once again, I was wrong.

he looked up at me, his grey eyes piercing Into me. "Roberta I thought you were better than this, lying will do you no good." my mouth dropped open. "you think I'm lying?" I said. "Robbi what's the best color for my new car? red or black?" he said. I stood up and stormed out of the room, and slammed the door behind me.

I walked down the hall to my mom's room. when I walked in she was at her makeup desk applying what looked like the seventh layer of lipstick. "mom I was almost abducted by snakes." I said looking at her stormy blue eyes through the mirror. "that's nice darling," she smacked her lips. "would you mind handing me my curling Iron?" I couldn't believe it none of my family cared.

"So you don't care either." I said. she turned around and looked at me. "oh sweetie I care," she said, a wave of relief washed over me. "but right now I have a big shoot so... the curling iron?" that wave evaporated. I stormed out of the room again.

How could they not care? how could they say 'our daughter was almost abducted and turned into a snake, oh well.' I went to my room and locked the door. I paced the floor and felt like screaming when I heard a soft knock. I thought it was my mom and didn't answer it. then I heard "Robbi? you in there?"

I unlocked the door and opened it. my 4 year old brother stood there his hands in his pockets his gigantic blue eyes staring at me.

I bent down and opened my arms for a hug. a smile spread across his face and he ran up and hugged me. "oh Thomas.." I said. " I missed you!" he said. My heart.... take it. I felt like crying. I closed my door and looked at Thomas. he is so adorable.

"How was your day?" I asked him. "good." he said. "you want a piece of candy?" I asked him. he smiled ear to ear and nodded. I opened my drawer of my secret stash of candy and picked a random piece to give o him. I closed my drawer and have Thomas the piece. he shoved it in his mouth and said "haw vus gur day?"

"What?" I said. he took the piece of candy from his mouth a d said " I said how was your day?" my face darkened as I remembered what jhosephina and I had gone through. "not- not so good Thomas." I said looking at his blue eyes deep with concern. "why?" he asked. I shook my head "its nothing." I said

Then I smiled " tickle monster's gonna get you!" I said. he screamed and ran for the door. I chased him down the hall and into his room, where he hid under his covers. "uh-oh, where's Thomas?" I said inching near to him. I threw off the covers and said "GOTCHA!!!" he screamed while I tickled him. oh gosh I love my brother so much.
