Foster

Part 3 The Escape

We crept through the line of beds and when we got to the door I stopped and turned around. "Stay here I see a flashlight." I crept to Willow's bed and took her flashlight I felt bad but it had to be done. Delilah slowly turned the handle and opened the door. Thanks god it's unlocked I thought to myself. We slowly opened the creaky door as it creaked opened creeeaaakkkk. We opened it the smallest bit so that was we could close it without a loud creek. Kyle slid through the door and stood outside of it, then Zoey, then Delilah, and then me. I closed the door with a quiet creeak. Then we all quietly went down the stairs with every creek to every movement. The room was so quiet that every step seemed loud.. the stairs seemed to be endless in my mine every creek taunting me. When we made it down the stairs we went past the "play room" and then Kyle tripped announcing a loud THUD echoing throughout. "Shh" we all said while I helped him up. We began moving again then realizing the door will be locked. "Where is the key, does anybody know?" I whispered Everybody shook their heads. "Okay well I've got an idea." I whispered moving the the front walking throughout the foster care center. Unfortunately Mrs. Darla was up! "Guys it's Mrs. Darla!" I whispered as their eyes got wide I quickly turned off my flashlight I tried to hand it to Zoey. She dropped it! Then Mrs. Darla turned! "Everybody hide!" I whispered seriously. I ran and hid behind the huge teddy bear. And saw Kyle hide behind a cabinet and Delilah she hid atop of the cabinet?! Zoey has nowhere to go I quickly grabbed her and pulled her behind the teddy bear. Just in time too Mrs. Darla came marching in she looked mad! So we waited until she left. Around 9:15 she left to go make sure everybody was asleep. That's when we moved. I grabbed the flashlight. We crept around the couches, and through the kitchen, through the creepy old hallway, and finally we made it to the door! We searched for the keg then Delilah found it. "Found it!" She said "where was it?" Zoey said. "No time for explaining we gotta get out of here!" I widowed then I heard a noise. Creek.. creek.... creek.. creek... then it stopped. I turned around and saw Mrs. Darla. "I've got you all now!" She said angrily. We panicked and right In front of us was the basement! We ran down the basement stairs and into the darkness we all scattered! I hid in the walk-in-closet behind some boxes. The rest of them.. I don't know. I just hoped they were okay. Then I heard the stairs creaking from Mrs. Darla's footsteps. I was scared but I had to be brave. I held on to the braveness I had left. Then realizing.. I dropped the key on the stairs! I knew Mrs. Darla picked it up there was no use in trying to get that back.
