Chapter 3: One Month Later:
Stacey: "Stacey! Come in here!" Yelled my mom. "Coming," I called. I raced down the stairs. She was in the living room watching the evening news. "Watch this," she murmured. I sat down and watched. The newscaster was talking with Buddy Barrett, a kid we sometimes sit for. "It was big and furry", Buddy was saying. "I saw it." He looked excited. Mrs. Barrett was holding his arm and she too talked to the reporter. "It was horrible. My goodness, it looked like a huge wolf. But it was on two feet." "Did it attack you?" The reporter asked excitedly. "No, it didn't. It looked at us and ran off. I think it was crying. It must've been scared." "And there you have it. The Werewolf appears again." "WEREWOLF!" My mom cried. She looked at me worriedly. I know what was coming. "I really hate to hunny. But you are forbidden to go out past 9. I will not take chances." "OK, Mom." Wow. Claud and Kristy were right. Just then the phone rang. It was Kristy. "Emergency meeting tomorrow!" "I'll be there." I hung up, and helped my mom make dinner.
Mary-Ann: ".No going out for baby-sitting jobs, or anything else." Sharon was telling Dawn and me. We had just seen the news and school was now cancelled until further notice. We had to stay home at all times practically, unless the sun was shining. Sheesh, Sharon. It's only once a month. Knowing what was going on, had made me feel a little calmer. Besides, I had to worry about Tigger going out and Dawn. I glanced at her. Her face was reddening as her mom went on about keeping an eye on each other. I could tell she wanted to say something but didn't. I looked at my dad. He was watching Tigger who was sneaking behind the table. He looked scared too. Poor Tiggy.
Dawn: I wish Mom would stop. I wanted to talk to Mary-Ann. But, I guess it was important for our safety. After an hour more, she stopped. Mary Ann and I went upstairs to my room and I shut the door. Mary Ann shut my open window. "So what do you think Kristy will sat at the meeting?" I decided to cut to the chase. "I don't know", she said. "Do you think.?" "I hope she doesn't think it's one of us", Mary Ann said, shuddering. "Me too"
