"Run! Children run!" shouted Mrs. Tarthwaite. Emma, Steph and Beatrice grabbed as much stuff as they could and ran to the front door. They had escaped the fire but there father was still inside the house. There mother looked on in amazement as she saw her husband running out of the house. "We are all alive" she screamed happily as she and her family had just survived a terrible fire. The children saw a large black automobile pull up across the road and a cat jumped out and ran into the house. "The sugar bowl! My sugar bowl is in there!" Screamed their mother, she ran inside after the cat thinking it had been sent in there to steal something. Followed by the triplet's father. Beatrice turned around to her 2 sisters "Who is in that car?" she asked. Steph and Emma turned and looked at the automobile.
"How do we know" they spat at there sister. Beatrice was always asking stupid questions that no one knew the answer to. Beatrice stepped towards the car and looked inside. No one was in there. She turned around and her siblings were gone. She ran into the house screaming desperately "Emma, Steph!" but no one answered. Beatrice walked outside and saw that her siblings were in the strange car. She walked towards it and tried to let them out but the doors were locked. Suddenly a man with very shiny eyes ran towards the car with her mum's sugar bowl and pushed his keys desperately into the lock. Beatrice knew he was a thief and she kicked him "OW" the man exclaimed dropping the bowl. Beatrice grabbed it and ran into the house.
She grabbed the phone and rung the police and fire brigade. 10 minutes later lights flashing blue were approaching. The man with shiny eyes saw and ran to his car. He drove away cursing angrily. He had Beatrice's sisters! Beatrice took a note of the license plate: I H8 ORFNS. She told the authorities and then searched the house for her parents. Her mother couldn't be found and her father's body was lying there in the ground. Burnt to a crisp. Beatrice cried for many nights knowing she would never see her siblings again and that they had been taken hostage. She had been at her house for 3 more nights with her Aunt Bella. The next day she was going to her cousin's house to live with them. On her last day she had discovered a secret passageway. She followed it for 6 hours and found herself in a Hotel. She wrote a few details down in her green notebook then she walked back down the passage with achy legs.
Aunt Bella had called the police straight away. 2 of her nieces had disappeared and now Beatrice had gone missing. At half past 7 the police had arrived and still there was no sign of Beatrice. They searched the whole house for and hour before they found her jumping up from a trap door. The police were very mad and they told her off then left the house. "tut, tut, tut" Aunt Bella said when Beatrice walked into the room. Beatrice walked upstairs and laid on her bed wondering what fate was destined for her. She was going to meet an Uncle she didn't know and her sisters had gone missing.
Meanwhile back at the ranch, a phrase which here means "at a completely different place and nothing to do with a ranch." An evil man was driving down Death Avenue, a street he knew well and he kept on driving into the city. The 2 girls were still in the back tied up and gagged. The car parked outside of a large hotel and the man got out leaving the children inside the car. He came back out with 3 tickets with the letters VFD inscribed on them. He got back in the car and untied the children "Your sister will be fine, just fine" he laughed and flipped their mothers sugar bowl into the air.
