Chapter 2.
Jennie arrived. She had no idea where Kate could have gone, and why she hadn't picked up her phone. She was a text-aholic! So we tried texting her. No luck. We were really, really worried about her. We decided we should tell her parents, and ours, what happend.
"WHAT?! Oh no oh no oh no oh no! My baa-aby!" This was Kate's mother, Mrs. Smith's response. She was sobbing in about 1.5 seconds. Mr. Smith looked like he was going to cry but instead oulled out his cellphone and dialed 9-1-1. My mother, the absolute opposite of Mrs Smith, breathed heavy but asked us if we were okay and told us Kate would be fine, that she had probably just gotten lost. My father was at work, and had no idea what was going on. Mr and Mrs. Johansen had been staring in shock the whole time and said nothing, but held Jennie tightly in their arms.
The police arrived at my house within 10 minutes. Two police cars, 3 men, 1 women. They said they would look for kate, but they needed a picture. Mr. Smith took a picture out of his wallet in less then two seconds. "This isn't very recent, last year maybe."
"Hold on!" I cried a little to loud. "I have a picture of the 3 of us just a week or two ago, it's upstairs. I'll go get it!" I dashed upstairs, and heard Jennie say to her mom "lemme go with her, she's super messy." and her footsteps up the stairs.
"I can't believe it, Jennie, whats happening. What if the guy caught her?" I wailed to her as I tore through my pig sty of a room trying to find the picture. "I- I heard a beep right before the guy dissapeared, maybe it was like a- a text or some message that they caught one of us. What could they have wanted?" It- it just doesnt make sense!" I found the picture in a messy stack of magazines. "Jennie. No. What if it was the, do you remember when we were going to school, a couple weeks ago, and Kate found that box in a bush? She put it in her backpack and she never told us what was in it. What if it was money? Or, or something else valuable? That could have been--"
I was cut of my my mom's voice. "Ally, did you find the picture? Do you need help finding it? Honey, you really need to clean your room, it's very messy. You are going to clean it first thing when-" Her and her run on sentances.
"Yeah, I got it mom, we're coming!" Jennie and I went down the stairs. "We'll talk later. I think I know why they took Kate."
