(Qwi) ㅤ"Charlie, what's your action?" ㅤㅤ"I don't know!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"sh00t a fireball!" (Rubie) ㅤㅤ"but I have to roll a 13 or higher!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"just cast a protection spell!" (Qwi) Charlie decides to sh00t a fire ball but the dice roll off the table. ㅤㅤ"WHERE ARE THE DICE??" (Cherry) ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"I DONT KNOW FIND THEM" (Rubie) Cherry's mom, Lina, yells at Cherry to clean up. ㅤㅤ"Cherry!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Mom, we are in the middle of a campaign!" ㅤㅤ"Too bad! Your friends have to go home" ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"20 more minutes!" ㅤㅤ"No." ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ------------- ㅤ"I got the dice!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"what was the roll?" (Qwi) ㅤ"A seven, does a seven count?" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Did Cherry see? No, so it doesn't count." The group packs up their things and heads outside. Qwi and Rubie ride away on their bikes, while Charlie stays behind for a bit. ㅤ"It was a seven." ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"What?" ㅤ"The roll, it was a seven. The Demogorgan got me." ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Oh." ㅤ"Uh, well i'll see you tomorrow!" The lights of Cherry's house flicker behind her. The other 3 ride off on their bikes. Qwi takes a turn to the Right and Rubie and CharIie keep going straight. Rubie turns to her house and Charlie keeps going. The light on Charlie's bike stops working and she sees some weird figure in the distance. She gets distracted and falls off her bike. She gets scared and runs back home. Her dog greets her as she gets home. She locks the front door. ㅤㅤ"Mom? Hazel? Mom?" Her mom and sister are nowhere to be found. The monster appears in her front yard and the monster unlocks her door from outside. In panic, she runs to the shed outside and grabs a bat. What she doesn't notice is that as soon as she gets inside and locks the door, the monster is behind her. The lights got bright and Charlie was nowhere to be seen. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ------------ ㅤㅤㅤ"Keys, where are my keys?" ㅤㅤㅤ"Hazel, have you seen my keys?" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Uh, no. Check under the couch?" ㅤㅤㅤ"Gosh, their not here!" ㅤㅤㅤ"Have you woken up Char?" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"No, i was making breakfast!" ㅤㅤㅤ"How many times do I have to tell you? ㅤㅤㅤ"Make sure she is up!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Sorry!" Safiya checks Charlie's room but she isn't there. She starts to look for her but she cant find her. ㅤㅤㅤ"Hazel, where is Charlie?" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"I don't know! She isn't in her room?" ㅤㅤㅤ"No ... maybe she just slept at Cherry's house!" Safiya goes to call Lina to ask if Charlie is there. ㅤㅤㅤ"Hey Lina!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Hey Safiya! How are you?" ㅤㅤㅤ"Uh good. Hey I wanted to know if Char happened to stay over last night!" ㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤ"No, is she not at home? Let me ask Cherry!" ㅤㅤㅤ"No, its fine! She probualy just went to school early!" Safiya puts the phone down and heads to work. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ------------- Cherry, Rubie, and Qwi arrive at school and put their bikes on the bike rack. ㅤㅤㅤ"Charlie's not here?" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"She's probualy late ... that's all!" ㅤㅤㅤ"I guess your right" The day passes on and Charlie still hasn't arrived at school. After school, Safiya goes to the police department to report her missing child. ㅤㅤㅤ"And your sure she isn't with her dad?" (Lyra) ㅤ"I'm positive!" ㅤㅤㅤ"Your sure?" ㅤ"Lyra, IM SURE! JUST FIND HER!" ㅤㅤㅤ"okay then ... I gotcha" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ-------------- Cherry grabs her walkie-talkie and talks to Qwi and Rubie. ㅤㅤ"Guys, we need a plan" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"What do you mean?" (Qwi) ㅤㅤ"I mean that we need to go look for Charlie, we can't just stay here and do nothing!" ㅤㅤㅤ"Yeah, but our parents wont let us leave" (Rubie) ㅤㅤ"We can sneak out!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Uh, I don't know ... that's seems risky" (Qwi) ㅤㅤㅤ"True, but Cherry has a point! We can't just sit here and wait for Charlie to come back. For all we know, she might not even come back ..." There is a silent pause, no one talked for about a minute but it felt like years. Qwi finally says something to lighten up the mood. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ"I say we go on our own search party and sneak out at about 9:30? That way no one sees us.' ㅤㅤ"That sounds like a plan!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Alright, see you guys at ... hmm. let meet up and Rubie's house, that was the last time we saw her!" (Qwi) ㅤㅤ"Okay, see you guys soon!" (Rubie) ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ----------- Cherry and Qwi arrive at Rubie's house and begin their search. They bike around at first and decide to go on foot. ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Woah, its REALLY dark out there." (Rubie) ㅤㅤ"Wow, would have NEVER noticed." (Qwi) Qwi gives Rubie a slight shove. ㅤㅤㅤ"Guys, stop messing around!" ㅤㅤ"Okay, I say we go home, I'm not trying to go missing, either " (Rubie) ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Don't be such a chicken!" (Qwi) ㅤㅤ"I'm not!" ㅤㅤㅤㅤ"Sure." ㅤㅤ"Okay guys we didn't come here for nothing, we could get grounded. FOR LIFE. Lets go." (Cherry) They walk into the woods, and wave their flashlights. They hear branches break and turn around. There was a girl. ㅤㅤㅤ"That's not Charlie ..." (Cherry)
