Escape

Two girls of 14 walk down a country lane. It is late at night, silent and dark. They dance and skip, laughing in the moonlight. Occasionally, one will glance back at a large manor receding into the distance behind them as they walk away from it. They will laugh as if in on a joke being played on the estate.

One girl is tall with grey-blue eyes and long blonde hair falling straight down her back. She smiles a lot and sometimes skips up in the air, spinning about without a care. A leather satchel bounces off her denim-jacketed back. Her t-shirt is white with "Freedom to be" written in yellow and her blue-green shorts show off her long legs. Her dancing feet are cased in black gladiator sandals. The label on her bag reads; "Property of Scarlett Bell."

The other is slightly shorter, with brown hair to her shoulders in ringlets and chocolate brown eyes. Her leather satchel is almost identical to Scarlett's, but reads; "Property of Kara Layton." She wears a purple, short-sleeved tunic which is belted at the waist and black leggings. Her brown, practical, lace-up leather boots reach her knees.

"Hey hey! Aren't we just like, queens of braking outta places?" Kara grins, adopting a false american accent.

"Oh yeah!" Scarlett grinned back and they high-5. "But... What're we gonna do now?"

"We'll go into the village, and get a taxi into town to get the train. Then, it's London, independence, puzzles and uncle Hershel." Kara seems excited.

Scarlett raises an eyebrow. "Straight into the arms of an adult? He'll kill you! He wants you to grow up well, and get a good job..."

"And your parents don't?" Kara retorts.

"Of course they do, which is exactly why I'm not going to run up to their door telling them I've broken out of the very expensive top private school for young ladies they put me in!"

"We'll deal with that as it comes. I know, what if we tell him it flooded and we were sent home early for the holidays?"

"The manor is on top of a hill."

"He's never seen it."

Scarlett sighs. "Ok. Tell me about this mysterious, elusive guardian of yours."

"He's not elusive, you just haven't seen him. The professor is really lovely, a proper gentleman. Lives in London, archaeologist. He loves puzzles though, and goes on adventures solving them." Kara says animatedly.

"Adventures? Alright, you've persuaded me. But we hop it the moment he tries to send us back."

"Deal."

What do you think? I have no plot ideas :/ Should I continue? Sorry it's a tad short...
