"We have to go after him! We have to look for him!" I screamed and pointed to the front door.

"No we can't! Its to dark! He'll come back! He always comes back..." Dan lowered his voice and wiped a tear from my cheek.

"He'll get lost, or... or he won't be able to see anything, or someone could take him..." A sob escaped my mouth as I looked at the open front door and the rain pouring down from outside. I had to go look for him. I just had too.

I pushed Dan off of me and ran out in the rain. My bare feet splashed in the sidewalk puddles as I ran down the street to look for him.
