Thank you peoples who reviewed and if you were wondering, yes, I jumped up and down like a weirdo and yes, My parents stared and me and asked if I needed a therapist. So thanks! Oh and if anything sounds like something Amu wouldn't believe in, remember she's 6! I don't own! Anyways, on with the chapter!

I was walking up and down the streets, wondering what I was going to do for the night, since I had nowhere to sleep and there wasn't anyone anywhere in sight. Occasionally I saw cars go by in the empty street, and every time they startled me. Ughh, I hated being alone, especially in the night, all cold and scared out of my wits with monsters possibly in the dark alleys with ten eyes and blue gooey skin. Wow, I think I just made myself more scared. Geez, where's Teddy when you need him? I was still wandering when I heard some chuckles from far away. I quieted my footsteps, and then I stopped and tried to hear what they were saying.

"Hey, you seen that red ruby in the museum?" I heard one gruff voice say. It sounded like a man.

"Yep. Yep, that one's a beaut," I heard another man say.

"It would look better in our hands, wouldn't it?"

"You think?"

"Hahahahahaha!" I heard all of the three men laugh. Were they planning to steal this weird ruby? If they were then they're probably thieves! I thought that stuff only happened in cartoons and movies! I peeked over the side of the wall to see three men in black hoodies and black pants. They looked as if they were in their thirties or forties and they were holding a bag and one with a moustache had a silver knife in his hand, ready to strike anything in their way. Then something felt funny up my nose. Oh no, please, PLEASE don't let this be a

"A-A-Achoo!" I sneezed loudly. Oh no!

"Hey, what was that?" a man said. He looked over at the wall and saw..me. Then I knew what I had to do.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed as I ran for my life.

"Hey, stop right there, kid!" The guy yelled as he and his gang started to chase after me quickly. I ran as my little puffy skirt flapped fiercely against my legs.

"Hey, come back!" The guy yelled again, but this time he ran after me with his knife in the air and his eyes staring at me menacingly. I looked into the dark forest filled with who-knows-what and decided to run into it. I almost crashed into a huge tree by how fast I was going and I checked to see if the burglars were still behind me. Yep, they were and they were catching up to me by running faster by the second. Me, I was running slower and slower. I felt exhausted, but I kept going because if Mama and Papa were gonna come back, I want to be alive! I gasped for air and tried my best to keep going, when I tripped on a tree root. Owww! Why does everything happen to me? Why? But there was no time to think about that! I was on the floor with a possibly sprained ankle with three crazy thieves on my trail! Not the best position to be in! The men finally stood over me and said " Say, goodbye, little girl." He chuckled. My eyes widened with fear and I was expecting the pain, when something stopped the man from sticking his knife into me.

"Hey! Who's-"He stopped as the man groaned and fell down with a knife plunged into his back. The other men ran away in fear of being killed too. They aren't very good thieves, I thought. I sat up and asked "Who did that? Who's there?" but all I saw was the dark of the night between the trees.

I walked out of the forest as I rushed through rough branches and as plants on the floor scratched my legs. It took me a while to get out of the forest because I had gotten lost while running. I shuddered as I thought about it. I finally found a green bench near a video game shop and I laid upon it and decided to sleep there. It was really hard and uncomfy but it's not like I could find anywhere better to sleep. I prayed to whoever is up in the sky that keeps you safe to protect me for the night. I drifted off into a deep sleep while listening to the soft wind whistle through the trees.

Yay! Another chapter! I decided that I'm gonna update….whenever I feel like it and hopefully I won't be lazy like with my weekend homework where I always say "I'll do it tomorrow" and end up doing it on a Sunday.

Thanx for reading and r&r!
