Chapter 5: A Cannibal?

Emily

We were driving somewhere. Flashing lights caught my eyes. I looked over and saw a carnival!

"Canibal! Canibal!" Emily shouted pointing somewhere.

"Cannibal?" Serena asked.

"No, Carnival!" Emily shouted.

"Oh, sure, we can go for a little bit." Serena said. She pulled into the lot and we all climbed out. Emily ran ahead of us.

We all went on a few rides, Emily chose most of them. There was one that none of us can go on since it was for younger kids. Emily climbed into the cart. It was a full cover, sort of like a car. You can't see the sides, only the front. Emily was then locked inside.

The ride started. It was a little river. Emily's cart went out of sight. When she came around I couldn't hear her giggling. When she got further out, It got fainter. As it got closer, I was supposed to hear her…..

"Emily!" I shouted.

The cart pulled in. The man went to open it. When he opened it, she wasn't there.

"EMILY!" I shouted. I ran to the cart. Serena joined me. She pulled something from the bottom. Her poorly tied yellow shoe.

"Emily." I muttered.

'So you're my daddy?" I asked.

"Yes. This is our home. We will be leaving in a few days. Umm…..this is your bed. How about you get some rest?" Daddy suggested. He picked me up and gently placed me in bed. He kissed my forehead and moved some of my hair from my face.

"But what about Serena? What about her?" I asked.

"She is staying with mom….." Dad said.

"But I want her!" I snapped.

"I know honey. It's just how things are working out. Maybe she will join us soon. Just, get some sleep." Dad said.

"Okay daddy. Goodnight." I yawned and went to sleep.

I was founy by Kevin. I was being watched intensively in the house.

"Where did you even go?" Kevin asked.

"For…..a run….?" I tried.

"Someone clearly needs to watch you." He said. I smirked.

"Can I go to the bathroom?" I asked. He sighed and nodded. I went into the bathroom and created a clone. I snuck out the window and started on the path to Dekker's.

So I am sorry about the update (even though I updated a few days ago.) but I can't update every day since Highschool is giving me a LOT of homework. I can update every other week a lot because I get no homework due to being in a vocational school. So next week, starting Monday, updates should come faster. If not, I am too busy. (I am in the newspaper club, robotics, signing up to be on student council, Movie club….now you know how busy I am…) so yeah…..
