A runaway adventure

Chase

Ryder Pov

Dear diary, I decided to write a journal entry in case something happens to me and my pups need to know why I'll start from the beginning my very first pup

Chase

Xx day of the Xx month

Tomorrow was my birthday so to celebrate my Mom and Dad decided to get me a pup, we had looked at pictures ahead of time they were trying to figure out which pup I like the most. I can tell There not good at keeping secrets, I said I always wanted a German Shepherd despite them being so big. I even custom made a pup tag for him if I ever got one it's special because it holds a lock-it with my picture in it and, the information anybody would need in order to return them to me I made one for him and one for me.

"We'll pick you up from school sweetheart"

"Okay Mom bye bye dad"

I said bye and they left everyone was happy that tomorrow is my birthday even my big-time crush Katie came up to me and said hello my other friends Jake a year ahead of me and Carlos who lived in the jungle, came and help me celebrate that tomorrow is my birthday

At the pet store

"Should that be the one"

"Yep, a cute German Shepherd just like he wanted it's cool.  School should be ending soon, will surprise him by picking him up and giving him to Ryder"

"We would like this one please"

Back at School

I'm waiting for my My parents and I can hear other kids talking I don't pay attention to them I wait on my friends Carlos and Jake but they look sad as they walk up to me

"Hey guys what's wrong"

"Ryder didn't you hear"

"What are you talking about Carlos"

Everyone looked at me and gasped some kids were saying under their breath 'oh he doesn't know'  and 'that poor boy' I was so confused then I saw the police showing up outside her school calling my name I came up to them worried standing next to me was my principal who looks deeply sad and she looked at me trying to be brave but she wasn't doing that well.

"Is this the boy you were telling us about"

"This is Ryder"

"So he's their son"

"Hey what's going on did something happen to my parents"

"Yeah kid they died in a car accident"

At that point skin was as white as snow I thought they were lying to me

"I'm so sorry"

I was about to start crying bawling my eyes out until I heard someone yelling it was a fire chief

"Hey look not everything was destroyed something survived the accident a dog"

I looked up and I couldn't believe my eyes, that dog was a German Shepherd just like I always wanted not only that I noticed something

"That tag"

"What tag you mean pup tag"

I got closer to the pup who seems to be fine with me and I touched it and just as I thought that was mine the hand custom pup tag that I made for the dog I wanted to prove it I opened it up it was a special lock it with my picture on it
