Maddie stumbled down the path to her home. She could hear the fright in her mother's voice. Yelling out her name.
"Maddie! Maddie! Where are you dear?" She stumbled and tripped.. Getting up quickly, she continued to try and keep running.
Her inner left thigh had a deep gash seeping with blood, straight through her cotton capri pants.
There were cuts and scrapes all up her arms and legs and face. "Mother! I'm right here!" But her voice couldn't carry with the wind.
" . . . Maddie?" Suddenly, Maddie tripped again. Yelping in pain, she screamed as loud as she could.
How did this happen? Well, let's go back a few months. Back when kidapping was just a thing she laughed about.
Seven months ago- Maddie as at the mall, with her best friends, Kaitlyn and Kelly. They were in American Eagle looking for a new 'casual' look.
