Danny sat at a park bench, and watched Jamie play on the playground. Joe was at the baseball field. Somehow Danny had been suckered into taking Jamie and Joe to the park, even though Joe insisted that he didn't need a babysitter. Danny sighed and zoned out. He closed his eyes and let the warm sun wash over him.
Jamie slid down the slide. A man waked out from behind the trees, he had a dog leash in his hand.
"Excuse me, have you seen my dog?" Jamie shook his head. "Can you help me find him?" Jamie shook his head again and turned to walk away. The man grabbed him and out his hand over his mouth. Jamie tried to scream but he couldn't. He clawed at the man and tried to kick him, but he was little and then man dragged him back, with ease. Jamie struggled and tried to scream again. He bite the man's hand. He drew it back in shock.
"Danny!" The man placed his hand on Jamie's mouth and began dragging him into the trees again.
Danny heard Jamie scream his name and jumped off the park bench. He ran to the playground and searched, but didn't see Jamie. He noticed drag marks in the bark and followed them. He stopped when he saw a man holding Jamie. He charged. He swung at the man.
He let go of Jamie and Danny kept swinging.
"Run Jamie!" Jamie ran to the baseball field.
"JOE!" Joe dropped his bat and ran to Jamie.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
"A man tried to take me. Danny...he needs our help." Joe motioned for his friends to follow. They all ran to the trees. The man froze, there was a hoard of twelve teen age boys running towards him, he turned to run, but the caught him and took him to the ground. He was out numbered. Jamie ran to Danny and wrapped his little arms around him.
"Thank you, Danny." Joe hugged them too.
"Is everyone alright?" Joe saw the bruise forming on Danny's cheek.
"Yeah, I'm good." Danny turned to Jamie.
"You're bleeding." Jamie looked down at his knees. They were scraped and the pants were tor and bloody. Jamie shrugged.
"I'll live." The boys chuckled and sighed in relief when they heard police sirens. The scum bag was going to jail and the boys were alright.
