*This Story Is NOT In The 1800's Or Something.
They Are Meant To Use "Pa Or Ma." Okie Dokie?
Chapter One: First Day Of A Brand New School.
Reina Sat Down In The Lunchroom And Stared At Her Food.
She Poked It With Her Fork Once,Twice.
She Looked To Her Left Then To Her Right.
Her New Classmates Looked So... So... So Different.
She Looked At The Small Slip Of Paper With Her Locker Combination.
094 She Said Over And Over In Her Mind.
The Food Looked Like It Came Out Of A Trash Can.
Note To Self: Bring Lunch Chicken Alfredo Day.
Everyone Was Talking To Each Other, They All Had Friends.
The Lunch Lady Came To The Table Where Reina Sat Alone.
"Would You Like Ranch For Your Carrots?" The Lady Smiled.
No Thanks Replied Reina.
She Looked At Every Full Table.
She Looked At The Clock. 12:01.
About 3 Hours Left.......
She Looked At Her Food Once More.
Her Stomach Rumbled.
A First Grader Walked Up To The Sixth Grader.
"It Looks Nasty But It's Actually Edible."
He Smiled.
Umm Thanks.
He Set His Tray Down By Hers.
"So You're New, Right?"
He Bit His Carrot.
Right.
She Became More Comfortable Talking To The Little Kid.
"I Hate K-12." He Paused To Finish His Carrot. "It's Just Everyone Is A Big Kid."
Reina Smiled.
Why Are You Sitting By Me?
"You Want Me To Move?" He Picked Up His Tray.
No,No. It's Just I Wondered Why You Were Sitting By... Well Me .
The Boy Set His Tray Down.
"I've Been Here Since Kindergarten But I Still Have No Friends. I Wanted A New Kid To Come And Your The First."
Oh. She Pondered As This Boy Sat By Her.
Are You Ever Moving?
"Well Maybe. Next Month. To That One State Below Us."
Texas?
I Wish I Was Still In Georgia.
The Prairies,Orchards,The Beautiful State.
Me And My Friend Used To Always Buy These Great Cookies For Five Cents.
"That Sounds Fun... Guess How Many First Graders Are In Our Class?"
Hm 7?
"10."
Just Ten?
"The Others Moved."
How Many?
"Around 7."
Sorry..
Wow....
Tis' Already Time For Recess.
Why Aren't Calling Us?
"I Don't Know.
They Don't Let Us Out For More Than 45 Minutes!"
Only 45 Minutes? Reina Stared In Amazement.
The Lunch Lady Started Dinging A Bell.
"TIME FOR RECESS!" She Called Out.
Reina Through Her Tray Away.
The Boy Tapped On Her Shoulder.
"Those Are Plastic. We Keep The Plastic Ones."
Reina Put Her Hand Into The Trash. I FELT SOMETHING MOVE!
She Picked Out A Worm On An Apple.
Many Kids Laughed.
She Pulled Out Her Tray,Dumped It,And Set It In The "Wash Pile."
She Ran Out To Recess Leaving The First Grader Alone.
He Walked Through The Fourty-Room School House.
He Found The Door.
"WAIT UP!"
She Turned, Her Sandy Blond Hair Flew In Front Of Her Face.
She Ran Into The Swing Set Pole Looking Back.
At The End Of The Day She Walked Home Through Huge Meadow Of Over 1 Mile.
She Usually Was Brought In The Ford.
What A Horrible Day! She Shouted To Her Mother Sewing For A Living.
"Hun What Did I Say About Stress?"
Don't Let It Take Over Yadayada. She Rolled Her Eyes.
She Looked At Her Mother In Disgust.
Chapter 2: Farewell Pa.
Reina Woke Up At Five A.M. For School.
She Wanted To Hug Her Dad Before He Went To Work So She Rushed Down Stairs.
Pa!
Before You Go To W...
Her Father Sighed.
Why Do You Have All Your Stuff And Boomer On A Leash? (Boomer Was Their Dog.)
"Uh Well Reina... I Love You. Never Forget That."
He Walked Out Of The Cabin.
Reina,Crying Ran To Wake Her Mother And Found Her In Her Room Dressing Annabell.
(Annabell Was Reina's 5 Year Old Sister.)
Ma! Ma! Pa Is Where Is He!? She Took A Breath.
Where's Pa Going? Her Heart Beating Fast.
"Your Father Is Going To Uh Travel."
Oh. I Was Scared Ma I Was.
He's Been Threatening To Leave Us Ever Since Annabell Was Born.
"Pa Wanted To Leave Because Of Me!?" Annabell Cried.
No,No. I Think He Just Didn't Want Another Child.
Reina Said.
Annabell Ran Back Up To The Attic Where Reina And Her Shared A Room.
Ma Don't Lie.
"Your Father Is Leaving."
I Knew It.
He Lied To Me.
He Said He Loved Me.
She Quivered.
"He Does. He Just Doesn't Love Me."
Reina Hugged Her Mother.
She Knew Her Mother Had Been Hurt.
"Reina" Her Ma Cried.
"I Want You To Have This."
What Is It?
"It's My Wedding Ring."
Reina Looked Shocked.
Ma.
Is Pa Going To Re-Marry?
I Don't Want To Call Another Woman Ma.
That's For You And You Only.
Her Mother Smiled.
"I Love You Too Reina."
Should I Tell Annabell?
"Good Heaven's No!"
"She'd Be Crushed!"
Well,Reina Sighed.
Ma.
You Are Now On The Market.
Her Mother Looked Puzzled.
"What?"
You Are Now Available.
Reina Smiled.
"No. I Doubt Your Pa Wants You Calling Someone Else Pa."
So We'll Be A Gal Family?
"Sure."
Haha. Ya.
"You Get Going To School I'm Going To Watch Annabell Today."
But It's Pa's Turn!
Reina Frowned.
"I Know"
Can I Take The Car?
"Who Would Drive You?"
Sebastian!
"Remember? He's Not The Servant Anymore He's The Babysitter."
But He's Nice.
Reina Smiled.
"Ask Him. He's In His Room."
Reina Walked To The Main Floor And To Pa's Old "Work Room"
That Was When Reina Was Little.
Sebastian?
"Yes?"
Will You Drive Me To School?
He Smiled.
They Ran Up Out The Door.
Let's Go!
Reina Yelled.
"How's School?"
I Have A Friend!
"Oh Ya?"
He's Only Six.
But He's Nice.
Sebastian Chuckled.
About An Hour Later She Arrived Just Ten Minutes Before School.
Chapter 3:School.
Bye Sebastian!
Reina Called.
He Waved Good-Bye.
Emily The "Popular" Girl Walked Over To Reina.
"So You Have A Slave? So Un-Cool."
Uh No. He's My Little Sister's Babysitter He Just Drove Me To School.
Emily's Attitude Was Horrible.
She Squished Her Lips Together As If She Didn't Believe Her.
"I Heard You're Hanging Out With My Little Brother, Davey."
That's Your Brother? She Looked At Her In Embarrassment.
She Giggled.
He Was The Only One Who Came And Talked To Me Or Anything.
"Pfft. You Know You're Not Ever And I Mean EVER Get To Hang Out With Us Now."
I Don't Care.
I Wouldn't Want To Hang Out With You Anyway.
"Well You're Going To Miss Out."
Reina Laughed And Walked Away.
Emily And Her Followers Paige And Elizabeth (Liz) Walked Away.
"Emily!" Liz Said.
"What!?" Emily Said Astonished And Embarrassed.
"She's Perfect For Our Group! Why Were You Rude?"
"No She's Not!" Emily Said Angrily.
Paige Interrupted. "Yes She Is."
"I Have A Plan" Emily Said.
"We'll Talk About It Later?" Liz Asked.
"Yes." Emily Said.
DING DING DING! School Had Started.

"Ya?"
He Smiled Seeing Her.
Sit By Me!
So He Did.
They Went Through Everything.
DING DING DING! Lunch.
They Walked In.
"Peanut Butter & Jelly Today Reena."
One Lunch Lady Said Smiling.
It's Reina.
"Oh Sorry."
Dave And Reina Sat Down.
They Ate.
"So..."
So....
"Wanna Go On The Teeter Totter?"
Sure.
She Smiled.
I'm Glad We're Friends.
"Me Too."
They Dumped Their Trays.
They Walked Outside.
Teeter.
"Totter!"
Davey Shouted.
They Went On And On.
They Went Inside.
They Sat And Read Until The End Of The Day.
She Walked Out.
"Wanna Go To The Pond To Swim Later?"
Can't.
Gotta Babysit.
"Ok.
I'll Go Alone."
NO!
I Mean Just Have Someone Come.
"Nah."

"Fine I Won't Go."

An Hour Later They Got Home.
Ma!
We're Back!
"Hey Hun!"
Where's Annabell?
"Oh She's In The Backyard.
Go Get Her And Take Her To The Park."
But Ma!
"No But's."
Uh!
She Walked To The Back.
Annabell?
Annabell Ran Up.
"Are You Taking Me To The Park?"
Yep.
They Walked To The Park Nearby.
Annabell Walked Over To Some Other Little Kids.
Annabell!
The Mother Of The Four Children Walked Up To Her. "Is It Okay If They Play Hide-And-Seek?"
Um.
"I'll Watch Her."
Ok.
Reina Walked Up To The Bathroom.
The Toilet Smelled Awful.
They Never Empty The Stool And Liquid From These Anymore!
Ugh!
She Came Out After "Finishing Her Business" As Her Pa Would Say.
The Woman Had Left Her Children Too.
ANNABELL!
ANNABELL!
ANNABELL?
She Looked Around The Whole Park.
ANNABELL!
She Cried She Walked Home.
Excuse Me?
Annabell Said.
Two Men Had Brought Her In A Cart.
The Man With Black Hair Smiled At Her.
The Looked Scared.
I Need To Go Home!
The Man With The Blond Hair Went Into The Store.
He Came Out With Paper,Pens,And A Doll.
"Here."
The Man Handed Her The Doll.
She Realized She Wasn't Going To Be Returned.
Are You Gonna Kill Me?
She Cried.
The Men Laughed.
"Why Would We Kill You?"
Well Are You Kidnapping Me?
They Went Silent.
You Are,Aren't You?
"Look Kid."
"We're Only Doin' It For The Money."
How Do You Get Money?
The Blond Wrote A Letter To Annabell's Mother Explaining They Had Her And They Wanted $100 In Trade For Annabell.
For Proof They Had Annabell Sign Her Name.
Annabell
NOTE* If You Thought Reina Was The Main Character You Are WRONG!
Annabell Takes Over For A While Then It Goes Back To Davey && Reina!
Chapter 4: Weeping Letter.
Annabell Looked At The Men.
Do I Ever Get To Go Home?
Annabell Asked.
"Little Lady, Yes. When We Get $100. Alright?"
She Nodded.
Annabell Was Starting To Get Fond Of The Men.
While The Men Got Fond Of Her.
Annabell Was Taken To A Small Cottage In The Forest.
She Looked At How Beaten-Up,Old,And Trashy It Looked.
What Is This ?
"She Said Disgusted.
"Just A Ghost Town." The Men Said.
She Looked Around To See A Couple Other Beaten Houses.
What's A Ghost Town?
"Old Towns That Have Been Destroyed From Wars And That Jazz."
How Old Is This One?
"It Was Made In 1704. Left 1775. Just Because Of The American Revolution."
Over 200 Years Ago?
"About."
What Year Is It?
"1974"
Are You Allowed To Stay In "GHOST TOWNS?"
"Well No."
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HERE!?!?!?!
"Over 5 Years."
I'M ONLY FIVE!
"Well Ya."
Where Do I Go?
They Brought Her Into A Small Area.
She Lied Down Fairly Frightened To Spend The Night.
A Couple Minutes Later The Blond Man Came In.
She Had Fallen Asleep Already.
So He Walked Out.
The Next Morning She Woke Up.
She Had Forgotten What Happened.
The Blond Walked In Shortly After And It All Came Back.
What's Your Name?
The Black Haired Man Walked In And Butted In Chuckled And Said "Teddy." He Chuckled Again.
Teddy? She Smiled I Like That Name.
I Have A Bear Named Teddy!
My Name's Annabell.
"Nice Name Yourself!" Teddy Said.
"What's Your Name?" Teddy Asked Sarcastically.
"Uh Well Uh Did You Know Today's Supposed To be Nice."
"Jonah!"
Annabell Giggled.

"That's Joan Of Ark."

She Smiled.
Later On That Day.....

"Good! Maybe Someone Knows About Annabell!"
Reina Opened A Letter.
"Dear Parent,

She Nodded.
"Uh..." The Men Were Somewhat Disturbed By Her Question.
"Ya. But Don't Use Too Much Hot Water."
She Nodded.
Will You Start And Stop It?
Teddy Started The Water And Jonah Stopped It.
Annabell Shut The Door And Got Undressed.

"My Niece Left Them."

So Anyway Back At The Ghost Town With The Kidnappers And Annabell.
-Knock Knock- "WHO IS IT" The Blond Called.
"THIS IS THE POLICE COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!"
The Men,Shocked Grabbed Annabell And Jumped Into The Ford Car Through The Back.
Of Course The Police Knew.
They Drove Through The Woods To The City.
There They Drove Past Annabell's House. Can I Go Back Yet?
The Men Knew They Couldn't Keep Her.
But They Also Knew They Weren't Going To Get The Money.
They Drove Past The Gas Station.
Then Past Her School.
She Saw Reina.
Reina Saw Her.
Reina Shocked Couldn't Breath.
She Just Stood There.
Thinking Her Sister Would Be Hurt.
Annabell Knew She Was Not Going To Be Hurt In Anyway.
She Looked As She Drove By The Pretzel Stand,The Guitar Players Asking For Tips,And All That Good Stuff.
Annabell Looked At The Men.
I'm Hungry.
They Looked At Her.
They Stopped At The Nearest Gas Station And Got Her A Donut.
Thank-You.
"No Prolem."
That Was How Jonah Said Problem.
Chapter 7: Let Them Go!!!!!!

"Not Now Kid."
But Teddy!
It's Important!!!!
"WHAT!"

It Will Lead You To The Pond And You Can Go Through The Woods!
The Men,Shocked That She Wanted To Stay With Them,Turned.
They Hit A Dirt Road That Led To A Camp Site.
The Cops Still On Their Trail Hit Glass.
The Glass Was Big And The Tire Went Flat.
So Then They Got Out To Get A New Tire Stupid It Was, They Got Back In.
They Went To Pick Up Reina And Her Mother.
They Drove Off All Around The City Finally On A Highway They See Their Beaten Up Ford.
They Make A U-Turn
CRASH!
Another Car Behind Them Honked.
"SORRY THIS IS BIG KIDNAPPERS RIGHT BACK HERE!"
"What The Heck!" They Heard The Car Owners Say.
The Police Apologized And Started Running While Reina And Her Mother Explained To The Car Owners And Promised To Pay It All Back.
The Car Owners Smiled.
"Aw Well No Need.
Go Get Your Daughter!"
Reina The Fastest Runner In The WHOLE City Ran She Ran And Ran!
Going On The Small Concrete Path That Divided The Two Half Of The Highways While Her Mother Helped Get The Car Out And Stop The Other Cars Before Another Crash.
Annabell On The Other Was Getting Car-Sick.
I Think I'm Gonna Puke!
She Screamed.
Jonah Handed Her A Gas Station Empty Cup.
There A Big BLAHHHH!
Came Out She Puked For 2-3 Minutes.
After That She Complained About Her Throat Hurting.
Teddy Looked In The Side-View Mirror, There Was Reina Huffing And Puffing Blood
Dripping From Her Mouth,She Needed Annabell She Couldn't Stop Running But The Pain She Had Bug Splatters On Her Face,Mud On Her Clothes But She Didn't Hesitate She Ran! She Ran Until The Next Stop Light. She Opened The Door When They Hadn't Noticed She Tried To Get Annabell But Ended Up In The Car Too.
"Annabell! What Did They Do To You!?"
Nothing,They Are Nice.
This Is Teddy She Pointed At The Blondie.
And This Is Jonah She Pointed.
"What Did You Do To Her!?"
They Bought Me A Dolly And Donut.
We Had Mac & Cheese Last Night.
"I Made It." Jonah Blushed.
Reina Could Tell They Weren't Bad People.
She Looked At Them Awkwardly And Said "You Know You're Going To Jail Right?"
"Yes..." Teddy Sighed.
No! Said Annabell.
I'm Staying With Them.
They Did NOTHING!
If They Go To Jail I Go To Jail.
They Tried To Talk Her Out Of That Statement But She Just Ignored Them Holding Her Doll.
Annabell Fell Asleep Minutes Later.
Around Twenty Minutes Later She Woke Up,The Car Chase Was Still On.
Reina Was Asleep.
She Hugged Her Sister.
She Also Saw Jonah Asleep.
Then The Car Broke Down On A Dirt Path Near The River.
The Cops Stepped Out Of A Taxi.
They Had Guns.
"COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!"
All Of Them Awake Now Came Out.
Annabell And Reina Put Their Hands On Their Head.
"Not You Girls."
"Yes Us Girls" Said Reina.
"I Asked To Go In."
YA! And When I Was Taken!
I Asked Them.
Truthfully She Answered That.
Annabell Had Asked To Go.
She Was Worried And Alone She Screamed...
"PLEASE SOMEONE TAKE ME!"
Reina Not Hearing That Came Out Scared.
So The Cops Walked Up To Her.
"Put Your Hands Down Now!"
No.
Annabell Said.
I Had Part In This.
Reina Smiled.
"We All Took Part In This Kidnapping."
Said Reina.
I Like Teddy And Jonah.
They Make Mac & Cheese,They Bought Me A Donut AND Doll.
They Were Never Rude To Me And Let Me Have My Privacy.
They Are Nice.
