Chapter 2-Snatched

The police were happy to help the Reads' the next morning when DW still hadn't come home. They acted mad at first that they didn't call sooner, but when Jane said they tried, the cops got quiet and blushed from embarrassment.

Kate proudly gave the cops information about what her sister was wearing. She told them where she was in the store. She told them she left DW to look at toys. The cops were sympathetic and told Kate it wasn't her fault. They were glad she was ok; Kate was glad too.

Later in the morning, the cops and Kate went to the superstore with a warrant. The fat manager wasn't there. A skinny old guy was there. He was nicer than the other guy and showed the tapes before the warrant could be served. Kate looked with the cops and told them what time they entered the store.

A technician found the girls and followed them. Kate watched herself sneak away to the toys. She blushed. She knew her sister went missing after she left and she felt guilty. She hoped DW didn't just run away, but she also hoped no one took her too.

"Look, it's a scumbag!" one of the cops cried. Kate watched as a heavy-set guy in a hoodie bust through the dressing room door while the attendent was gone. DW struggled but the guy was too big. He slapped her hard and she had to comply. "Follow them to the parking lot," the lead detective said. The technician did. They watched as he walked out of the store with DW. No one tried to stop them even though DW still had a shirt in her hands.

In the parking lot, he forced her into the back of a black SUV. Kate started to cry as the technician wrote down the license plate number. Another cop took Kate to the side, "It's okay, Kate. We know this guy. We'll find him," the cop said. Kate sniffled but nodded. She knew the cops would do their best, but she still missed her sister.

That afternoon, the police released an old mug shot of the kidnapper and told all of Elwood City what happened to DW. People started calling the Read house and then news vans came. The Reads were scared of all the cameras, so David snuck them out after dark. The went to Thora's house. She was worried too, but she tried to stay brave for David, Jane, and Kate (arthur is at college. he'll come in later.).

Night fell all over Elwood City but there was no sign of DW or the scumbag. Kate couldn't get to sleep. Her pillow was too wet from her own tears.
