Chapter 2-The Lie
Eric was driving down the quiet streets near his home when he spotted Ruthie running down the street as fast as she could. He pulled the car over to the sidewalk and started to get her attention.
"RUTHIE!!!" he yelled.
"DAD!!!!!" she cried back. She raced over to him and they hugged, and Ruthie looked up to her dad and almost started to cry because of how happy she was that she had gotten out of there alive.
"Where have you been? What's wrong?"
"Oh, I-uh. I." Ruthie started to remember what the man had said '.don't tell anyone what happened her today. Or else.' She could still hear the roughness in his voice and feel his hand upon her face. "I got lost." she lied.
"Lost?! You never get lost on the way home from school. Are you ok? Did something happen?"
"No..yes..no..I'm fine..I just got lost. I think I made a wrong turn back over by school."
"Ok, lets get you home..we'll talk more about this later."
Dad opened the car door for Ruthie and she got in as she looked behind her trying to find the house that she was brought to, maybe then she could tell the police without her family or her getting hurt.

'Where could she be?' Annie thought. Then she heard the front door close and people walk in. "RUTHIE!!!" she yelled as she ran to the front door.
"No, mom." Said Lucy. "It's just us getting back from ice cream. We didn't see Ruthie at the promenade though. She hasn't gotten back yet has she?"
"No, unfortunately not." But then the front door opened again and Eric and Ruthie walked in. Annie ran over to Ruthie and gave her a big hug and Ruthie smiled and gave her a hug back. "Are you ok, Ruthie? What happened?"
"I got lost." Ruthie said plainly. "Lost? You never get lost." Annie looked up at Eric and they both knew that there was something other explanation for all of this. "Lucy, could you order some pizza for everyone while your dad and I talk for a little bit."
"Yeah sure mom." Said Lucy as she walked the twins into the living room and Simon and Kevin walked in with Ruthie asking what happened every two seconds.
After everyone left the room Annie said, "Eric, I don't think she got lost. I think she got kidnapped and escaped somehow."
"Why would you think that?" Eric said.
"Look at the news." Annie turned on the news and listened to the report.
"A message to all children and parents. There is a kidnapper on the loose that apparently escaped from jail just this morning. No kidnappings have been reported yet, so keep your eyes pealed for this man." They then showed a picture of the man. Annie turned off the TV.
"She was walking home alone, Eric." Said Annie with a scared tone in her voice.
"I'm going to call the police, you go and see if you can get anything out of Ruthie." Eric replied.
