Chapter 6: Close Call

  A kidnapper had seen them! No Parents! Just a suitcase! Then Elizabeth felt someone spying on them. The man didn't know her awareness. So, when the next adults came, they just walked with them. The guy then believed that those adults were there parents. They had a close call though, because the man who was looking at those girls was none other than a notorious kidnapper of LA. Then, Elizabeth talked to the adults they had walked with. They seemed very kind. When Elizabeth and Rosaline asked if they could stay at their house though, they said no and walked away. Now, the kidnapper spotted that and knew he could probably kidnap them. Although, by the time the kidnapper and his sidekick were ready, they had disappeared. The kidnapper decided he'd have to get onto the side the girls were on to be able to at least try to kidnap them. The girls ran towards their hotel and payed the money for a month's stay and went to their room. When they got to their room, Rosaline asked, "Sissy, why did yu wun away suddenwy?" All Elizabeth said was, "Because we're in danger." Then Elizabeth decided to tell her sister the rest,"I saw a suspicious-looking man coming our way. He looked like he was trying to kidnap us. So, I just decided we would be safe in the hotel." That's all for today! Bye!

Chapter 5: Villains or not?!!!

We left them at the BART station didn't we? Well, as you already know they got more money because they looked like beggars. As the BART train left the station, they took their seats. After around 5hrs. the train came to a stop. The train put its breaks so fast that Elizabeth woke up all shaking. Elizabeth tried waking up Rosaline but ended up carrying her. When Elizabeth saw Los Angeles, she noticed it had two sides to it. A side for poor people and the other side for rich people. When Elizabeth was about to cross the road, she felt someone tapping her shoulder. When she turned around she saw this kind-looking woman. "Need help?" she asked. "No, thanks." Elizabeth replied. Then Elizabeth  ran to hide in a corner. Suddenly, Elizabeth remembered she had a cellphone. She called the librarian and asked for directions to the hotel. They followed directions to the hotel. Elizabeth then said,"Bye!" to the librarian when she saw the hotel and told the librarian not to tell anyone that they were in Los Angeles. As they arrived, they found the hotel was named Comfort Inn. I hope it's comfortable like it says. She then woke up Rosaline. "Rosaline wake up! We're at Los Angeles!" Rosaline opened her eyes and unlike people that just woke up from a sleep, her eyes opened up wide. "We at Wos Angewes! We at Wos Angewes!" She got down and jumped around. Two people were spying on them with binoculars. Who were they? Let's find out tomorrow.

Chapter 4: Almost there

So, as they leave the library and head for the woods, something else is happening in the orphanage. The orphanage lady is in distress as the adopting mom comes and starts a dispute. "How dare you let them run away!" "I...I..-"Speak up you impudent thing!" "I was inspecting their rooms yesterday and they were just playing with the toys!" "Oh my, oh my! Are there any other girls I could adopt?" "Yes,yes go see for yourself." As the mom left, the orphanage lady mumbled to herself, "Now where could those children have gone?" Where they were was the southern part of San Francisco. As they approached the end of San Francisco they noticed a board that said, "Welcome to San Jose." Elizabeth knew about a few cities below San Francisco. She knew San Jose wasn't this close and thought it was just a trick. Then she notice that they indeed were in San Jose's freeway but not the actual San Jose. They walked on the freeway following the cars. They finally reached San Jose around 8:00p.m. and decided to set up camp in some nearby trees. After many nights, they reached a small city near Los Angeles called Lancaster. They still had one whole day until they would at least reach the beginning of Los Angeles. They had some money in their hands, they payed for tickets and got onto BART for Los Angeles. Since their clothes looked all tattered, people thought they were beggars and gave money to them. Let's find out what happens next, tomorrow... will they reach Los Angeles safely or will they have to be careful about dangers.

Chapter 3- Planning of the Journey

Where were they running away? They hadn't the slightest idea. They were just going to go wherever their feet took them. Then, they had a big idea. They decided not to stay in San Francisco but go to LA where the movie stars lived. They hid and slept behind the library that night. The next morning, they went into the library. The librarian was kind to them whenever they came in. This time, she was able to help them as they were the only ones in the library. "We are trying to run away to LA." Elizabeth whispered to the librarian. "May we use your computer to book flights and hotels?" The librarian said, "What's this all about?" "There's a lady that's going to adopt us at 10:00 from the orphanage but she's mean. She won't let us meet or see each other in the house." After much hesitation she agreed. Then suddenly the librarian said,"How long are you going to stay there?" "For how long we can afford I guess?"replied Elizabeth. "Oh, and also, can you send us money while we're there?" "I'll see, said the librarian. I can't promise you." This is only the beginning of this journey...

Chapter 2: The Runaways

As that adopting lady left the scene,the next morning, the orphanage lady said to Elizabeth and Rosaline, "Spend all the time you want with yourselves right now because she will be coming to pick you up tomorrow morning at 10:00 ok?" "Ok ma'am," they said. Although, they knew that they would probably have escaped by then. Instead of spending time with each other, they packed all their belongings and were about to leave, when the orphanage lady was just passing-by the rooms. Lucky for them, she didn't see. So, they continued through the hole and both of them made it into the fresh San Francisco night air. To see what happens next, wait 'til Monday...

Chapter 1: The Wicked Lady

"I'm going to save you." she breathed. "I'm going to save you." Her little sister, Rosaline pondered upon why her sister was saying this. She then asked,"Sissy, what awe you shaying?" With that Elizabeth told her little sister what had happened and what she had heard. This might be weird though, but her little sister, Rosaline, said,"Let's wun away." Elizabeth had a sudden excitement and told Rosaline," C'mon let's pack our bags and use the money we do have." In all their excitement they forgot all about why they were running away. Just then, they heard footsteps. When the orphanage lady and the mom who had decided to adopt just Rosaline came in, Rosaline and her sissy as she called Elizabeth were shivering with fear hugging tightly to one another knees buckled. Seeing this the mom decided she would adopt both of them. "But, they will not be able to see each other in the house or meet anywhere in the house!" she said. The orphanage lady then said that this lady could not take these children by law. They had a large dispute. Finally, the orphanage lady gave up but said,"Give them one more day to spend time with each other please." Elizabeth and Rosaline were overjoyed by this and tried not to show it. If this one day was worth it, Elizabeth and Rosaline could probably run away! Let's find out what happens next tomorrow...

Preface

The girl went to sleep with her usual "no good night" at her terrible orphanage. She always dreamed that someone would adopt her. She had a little sister with her in the orphanage also. Whenever someone came to adopt children they wouldn't take siblings together. But this girl, Elizabeth, was not going to go easy on those parents like the others had. How? was the only question. After many days, a parent finally came. When Elizabeth eavesdropped she was shocked by what she had heard. She ran back to her little sister and hugged her tight. What she heard was obvious. Find out what happens next tomorrow...

Starting a new line of posts

From the next post onwards, I am going to write my own storybook from the ideas I've read in books. I hope this is going to be good. Also, I won't be writing the whole story in 30 minutes. I'm going to write a chapter every day. Then, depending on my classes on the weekends I will write. So, the weekends I'm not so sure that I will be doing blog posts. Ok, thanks. I just wanted you to know about it. Bye!

First Day of School- 9/2/10

Yesterday was the first day of school in my school. I'm in sixth grade now. Most schools start on the 1st at least in elementary. I love this new school so far. I started last school year in June. In my class there are 30 students including me. I'm also very happy that every week in sixth grade we get to go to the school library and checkout at least 4 books. (As you might know I love reading books.) I have to be careful with my homework the most because then I would get in trouble.  I'm looking forward to this school year. If your schools started yesterday, or before, I hope you enjoy it. Bye!
