Locked In
I wander around the garage, around all the boxes and furniture. I can see pretty well in the dark. Unfortunately, I don’t see a way out of here.
I go to the big garage door and scratch at it. It rattles, but doesn’t budge.
“Hello? Can anybody hear me?” I call.
If ever there was a good time to use the Network, this is it.
“HELLO!” I try again. Louder this time. “I’M LOCKED IN A BUILDING THAT LOOKS LIKE A BUNCH OF GARAGES FROM THE OUTSIDE! CAN ANYONE HEAR ME? CAN ANYONE HELP?”
No answer.
Hmm. There must not be any dogs nearby. If there were, they’d answer. Dogs don’t ignore calls over the Network.
I pace back and forth in front of the door. There’s got to be a way out of here.
I sniff along the edge of the garage, right next to the wall. Maybe there’s a loose board or a hole I can make bigger. But I don’t see any loose boards or holes.
I push against the wall, but nothing happens. I scratch at the wall. I ram my shoulder against it. I even take a running start and ram my shoulder again.
All that happens is: I get a sore shoulder.
“HELLO?” I give the Network another try. You never know when a new dog might wander by. “HELLO? CAN ANYONE HEAR ME?”
Still no answer.
My shoulders slump. I could be stuck in this garage until Uncle Marty and Raina come back.
What if they never come back?
