Bridget and know Carmen are missing it has been five days for Bridget and a day for Carmen. Things were strange around the town all children under twenty-one were not allowed out of the house without an adult. At least twenty-five with a bat or metal rod for protection. All people were afraid to leave their houses all locks and guns were all filing of the shelf's in order the mayor called it a town disaster and no one was allowed to go out unless necessary. But more people seemed to be worried about themselves than the life of two innocent girls and an unborn child.
Tibby walked over to what was her best friends Carmen's house. Carmen and her mom realized that she was growing up and been close knit up until her capture. Her mother had been crying so hard that day she was all red and her eyes were bloodshot. " Is there anything I can do" " Nothing but bring my daughter home!". Then she started to rock in her rocking chair holding what seemed to be a purple hippopotamus. The she started to sing " rock a bye baby on the tree top when the wind blows the cradle will fall when the bow brakes the cradle will fall and down will come baby cradle and doll."
Are you ok Tibby kept yelling but Bridget's mothers kept singing that awful lullaby.
If you thought much couldn't get worse it could Carmen and Bridget were still inside the building. Mary walked and the locked room they were in and both Carmen and Bridget were asleep she had a bag and she shoved Bridget inside. Carmen awoke to smoke and bright orange flames as high as she was. She let out a blood-curdling scream!
She jumped on some boxes that on her bare feet felt like many balls of fire. She went to the landing of the nearest window and sat on the ledge at least two stories high yelling for dear life. It seemed as know one cared if a girl was burning up in a fire sitting on a window ledge. After she realized know one was coming to help her she decided after her good intentions told her not to, she stood up and jumped just as the building blew up. She landed on the ground hard as a rock and squirmed as in trying to crawl from the scean but fell still, very still.
Back at Tibby's house a flash went over the TV and an announcer said " Tonight Folks a tragic landmark was burned from a fire in the downtown streets of johansburg square. Know one seemed to have been living in the old hotel building but one girl was found on the ground outside. She was seriously hurt and will be questioned on what happened and why she was there. Her name has not been released to the public but her family has been contacted. More information as we are contacted Thank you and goodnight." Just at that moment the phone rang and it was Carmen's Mother she wanted Tibby and Lena to come to the hospital as soon as possible.
