There
once was a little girl named Samantha, Sammy for short. She lived
in Watsonville, CA. to
her that was the best place to be! With an average of 60 degrees in
the summer it was a nice place. But what she loved the most was
playing with her Shadow she’d try to hop on her. She
would fail. The Shadow was also ready to play when
she wanted.
Then one day she disappeared. She searched for him every
where she asked other people if they knew were her shadow was. Most
of them replied “My darling your shadow is a part of you not
something you can lose.” They laughed at her
and discouraged her. But what she didn’t know was that her
shadow was looking for her to!
She
went home and she told her Mother about her day. The mother said
the same thing the others said. The Mother suggested that they all
settle down and watch Peter Pan. When Sammy saw what Jane did for
Peter she said, maybe Jane has my Shadow! The next day Sammy set
out in search of Jane she could not find her any were. But what she
didn’t know was she was not the only one looking for her
shadow. A mean terrible nasty man was looking for her shadow. So he
can get to her.
The next
couple of days Sammy just sat there and watched TV. That’s
all she could do, or so she thought. After about a week her mother
told her she need to go outside and play for a little while. Then
she saw HIM the mean nasty man.
He showed her
the bag and a piece of paper that said in Red“If you want your shadow back meet me near
the creek at high noon”her face brightened and it left
just as quickly as it came. She thought, “What if he
doesn’t really have my shadow?” well it’s worth a
try. Noting lost, but maybe, just maybe something gained. If this
wasn’t a trick her and her shadow would be reunited soon,
very soon!
So that
day at high noon she went to meet him next to the creek. She
didn’t see him anywhere then all of a sudden he appeared out
of nowhere and blindfolded her and taped her mouth shut. She
started to rethink the whole
thing.
How is this for a
Mystery?
