"What?" Andrea asked.
"We're going to cut open the doors to the Ministry. No one else can know about the knife, that's why I sent them away. We have to get there before them, but they can't see us. Let's go!" Lisa said, in a hurry.
"Maria, are you coming?" Andrea asked.
"Yes, I don't wish to be alone." Maria replied.
Lisa ran out the door and Maria and Andrea followed.
They saw Scarecrow and Gar-Gar walking through the nearby forest surrounding the house. So, they kept their distance from them and did a bypass to get around them and get to the Ministry before them.
After nearly an hour of running they were coming up on the grounds of the Ministry. Everything was quiet and it greatly shocked the three of them.
"We're going to go up to the doors, I'll slide the knife in between the two doors and the lock will be broken. We'll open the doors and run." Lisa said.
So they ran the few more acres to the Ministry. They approached the doors and still heard nothing. So just to check, they pulled on the doors to see if they were still locked. Sure enough, they were. Everyone was still inside, but silent. Were they dead?
Lisa took the knife in her hand. She turned it sideways and put it in the crack between the two giant doors. She slid it up and down and then pulled the handles of the doors. They opened.
She pulled them both open all the way. The three of them peered in. There was no living soul in sight. As far as they could see, the Ministry was completely empty.
"We should go." Andrea said.
"Yes. Let's go." Lisa replied.
They all turned and ran back to the house.
