The moonlight cast menacing shadows on the pavement,as I crept along the path.Trying to avoid my parents' window,reached the edge of the distressed street (we had a corner house).I made a right turn.I needed to avoid the robo-police (bozo-police as I call 'em).See,under the new,ah,'management'no one was allowed to leave their house after 10:00.Not even the adults!Some people call it rebelling and dangerous to leave your house after curfew,but I call it being a 'teenager'.
I passed lots of shriveled and lop-sided houses,most of them a nasty cream-color others paint-chipped and dirty.
After a few minutes of nothing bu walking,I heard a siren:
WOOP-WOOP WOOP-WOOP WOOP-WOOP
"Oh,no!"I muttered and came to an abrupt stop.I turned to see a robot-like thing hovering toward me,it's alarm blaring in my ears.These bozo-police didn't have legs (hence the hovering),making them twice as fast.His (all the 'cops' were male) metallic badge glinting in the light blinding me as he hovered in front of my face."Where do you think you are heading female resident?"HIs annoying animatronic voice blasted in my ears.
"Um,"was my intelligent response before I turned and ran as fast as my short legs could take.
I laughed silently to myself when I reached my destination.
