CHAPTER 2 - Missing Things and Unlocking the Secrets
Later that night, five floors up at Silver's apartment, Silver gets ready for bed, she takes off her dark-brown belt, and puts it over her bedpost. Takes her gun out of her gun holder, and puts it on her bed side table. Takes off her clothes, and lays them on her chair. She puts on her black nightgown, and sits down on her bed.
"Yawn! Am I ever so sleeply tonight," said Silver.
She took her boots off, and threw them near her chair, took off her tail rings, and put them on her bed side table. She got in and pulled up her covers.
"Now, I think am going to listen to some music, and do a little reading," said Silver.
Silver reachs for her walkman under her pillow, but for some reason she cant find it.
"Hm! That's odd, I know it should be under my pillow. Hm! Oh well, I will just do reading tonight, and Ill look for it tomorrow," said Silver.
So, Silver reads her book, and moments later, she closes her book, turns off her lamp, and goes to sleep.
-" BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!"- It's 7:30 in the morning, Silver turned off the alarm clock. She gets out of bed, walks over to her chair, and gets her clothes. She walks out of her bedroom, and goes to her bathroom to get ready.
Half hour later, she gets out, and goes back in her bedroom to see if she can find her walkman. Silver looks under her pilow, but not there. So, she looks under her bed, but still no walkman.
"Huh! thats stange, I can't seem to find it. I know it couldn't have just walked off," said Silver to herself.
Silver gets up off the floor, when she suddenly notices something else goes missing.
"Oh-no, tell me my gold tail rings didn't just go missing too. I know I had them right here on my bed side table," said Silver.
Silver turns around, and strangely finds more things missing.
"What?! First its was my walkman, then my gold tail rings, and now two paintings on my wall that my Dad gave me on my birthday is now missing??! So, is it just me, or am I losing my mind...!" said Silver curiously.
Suddenly, a cool morning breeze comes through Silvers window.
"That window wasnt open, except for yesterday morning to see what the yelling was about... Uh-oh! Now I remember, I forgot to lock it. So, I must be robbed, but who did it is the question?" said Silver, to herself.
Silver walks up to the window, closes it and locks it. Silver walks up to her bed to get her belt and puts it on. She gets her gun, and puts it her gun holder. Walks out of her room, into the livingroom. She walks up to her door, opens it and leaves her apartment.
Silver turns right, and starts walking. Suddenly, Silver sees two policemans talking to the next door neighbor.
"Im serious! This is no joke! I really did see an actual green-and-yellow handbag steal my laptop and my wallet!" said the neighbor, frustrated.
The policemans just laughs at the neighbor. "Hahah! Yeah right, handbags don't steal," said the first cop.
"Yeah! Unless, this so-call handbag your talking about runs on batteries," said the second cop.
"This guy is crazy, come on partner let's get some donuts," said the first cop.
So, the two policemen walked off, and the next door neighbor slams the door. Silver stood there, and sees the situation.
"Soo, my next door neighbor saw this handbag too. Huh! Well, maybe thats who stole my stuff, but how would a handbag get up on a wall?" whispered Silver.
Silver starts walking quickly, straight towards the elevator. She pressed the down button, the elevator opens. Silver gets in, presses one the elevator closes. The elevator soon reachs down to the bottom, the doors open and Silver gets off. She turns right, and heads for the exit door.
Silver exits the apartment building, she steps down two steps to the parking lot, and heads straight towards the sidewalk. Silver turns right and starts walking.
"Now, if I were a handbag who steals, where would I be right now? Hmm!... I don't have a clue where a handbag would be, but I think Im going to walk through this town and the park. Maybe I'll over hear and see something through here." said Silver.
So, Silver walked through the town, but didn't hear or see any trouble. She soon reachs the park, and there Silver does not see anything unusual.
'Well, nothing bad here so far... Oh! I always love this park, it's so peaceful and pretty. I can't imagine a theif would go here, theres nothing really to steal here... Since Im here, I just as well to see the pond here at this park...' thought Silver.
Silver turns left, and suddenly Silver stops. To the right at the picnic tables, Silver sees something quite familiar. A green-and-yellow checkered handbag with blue sides, and purple strap-like arms. A pack of raccoons sits on the benchs of the picnic table, some of them stand, and are all wearing red hats and shorts. Silver starts to think, and a flash-back comes to her mind.
'...I really did see an actual green-and-yellow handbag steal...'
"...Gasp! Thats it!" whispered Silver. "I've found my theif...
Hmmm! I see that the handbag got a little gang with it, I wonder what they are up to?" whispered Silver curiously.
Silver sees a near by tree, she quickly runs towards the near by tree, near the picnic tables to spy on their plan.
"This is great! Tonight we can break into the Grand Inn and Club and steal all grand antique treasures there" said the handbag.
"Yeah, it's a good thing we over heard the manager mention about the broken lock at the back door and the alarm system"
said the first raccoon.
"And over hearing the wonderful antique paintings and treasures that the manager was worried about getting stole," said the second raccoon.
"Heh! Heh! Well, I guess hes got a little bag of worries, and the bag must've torn open, and letting out the fun for us!" said the handbag.
The raccoons all burst into laughter, and Silver still near by the tree heard all they said.
"Hm! Better enjoy the fun while you can, for it's not going to last. As for tonight, I'm gonna crash your fun!" whispered Silver low.
