The lights flashed. The sky turned black. The speakers breathed.
Attention Stagwell Community. Please report back to your homes. It is 9:00 PM. Once again, Stagwell Community, please report back to your homes. It is now nighttime.
"We need to go." she whispered.
"But I want to stay...."
"No. We can't."
"But I wanna stay, I wanna stay I wanna stay. I WANNA STAY!"
"Shh shh. We can't stay. We'll come out tomorrow."
"NO! I WANNA STAY! I WANNA LIVE LIKE THE GIRLS IN THE MOVIES! I-I.. I wanna be normal!"
The girl secured her friend's coat and put her hands on her cheeks.
"One day we won't live like this. And I promise we can stay awake til morning, and eat all the cookies in the world."
"You promise?"
"I promise."
The flash lights beamed all over the city.
One beamed over the two.
"Start running!" The speaker yelled.
The girl squeezed her friend's hand and started running.
Alice was 16. Her short wavy brown hair was frizzing from the rain, her long yellow raincoat jiggling in the wind, her black leggings tight on her legs, and her white sneakers splattering on the ground. Alice squeezed Mira's hand tightly.
Mira was 10. She had long brown hair, down to her butt. Her pink raincoat wrinkled near her pockets, and letting the rain drop on her blue skirt. Her black shiny flats were soaking, jumping on each puddle.

Alice and Mira shoved the metal door open and rushed inside, throwing their coats on the rack.
"9:20. Crap. Mira come on, we need to get to bed before they catch us."
Alice placed her carryon bag on the table and ran up the stairs, carrying Mira. Mira rubbed her eyes.
"I want to leave."
"I want to leave too.." Alice thought of her secret. She'll love it.
Alice opened Mia's room's door, and placed her lightly on the plain white twin sized bed.
Her room was soulless. No decor, no toys, no posters, no nothing. Just one window, a closet, and a bed.
Alice went into her room and pulled out the wood plank on the floor nearest to the closet, and took out a key. The thick bronze hearted key and put back the plank. She tapped two times on the back of the door and opened it again, and there stood a dragon. An off white, close to beige dragon. About 11 feet and 6 inches tall, actually. Her huge eyes glowed and her tail swayed.
"This is what we've been waiting for."
Alice came closer to the dragon and pet her head.
"Just a few more weeks. Just a few more weeks..."
The dragon's tail swaying, Alice spoke to her.
"If anyone found out about this, I would be dead.... Literally, Angel. They'd decapitate me." Alice frowned.
Angel started to lay down, and Alice did too. And there they lay, taking a nap.
