Emily Fields was sitting on the solid, cold ground as she heard light footstaeps coming her way.She turned to see Tasha Nome walk up to her. "Wanna play hide and seek" asked Tasha."Sure, but where and who's going to be it" questioneed Emily."In the woods obviously and your it"said Tasha.Emily stared at Tasha waiting for her to look at her and laugh.She didn't move a muscle.
Emily stood up and walked to a nearby tree and started counting. 1...2...3.Thats when she decided to just stop counting and go look for Tasha. What she didn't know was that Tasha had run home and let Emily to look for nothing in the woods.
Emily was strolling in the woods when she gave up. She was in the middle of a clearing.Emily was now lost and she didn't know which way was north.Emily stood in silence and thought long and hard.He looked for the mossiest tree's and headed in that direction. As son as she started walking she haerd a twig snap behind her.
Emily whirled around to find nothing behind her so she turned back around and started jogging.She heard another tig and ran as fast as lightning.She zig zagged through the trees as the rain started pouring down.
She came to the edge of the clearing and heard sirens wailing in the distance.Emily saaw two thin figures running towards her and saw that it was her parents.Her mother walked up to her tears streaming down her cheeks. As Emily waited for the worst her mother did something unexpected.She gave her a hug that made tears gush out of her eyes. For the first time in her life she was happy to be in her mothers arms.
