wanted me to tell them about Grampa and papers but I didnt know much. The big boss in the red mask got mad.
Where does McLean keep papers? he shouted. Where is the anthem? Where?
He took a gun out of his pocket and started waving it around.
Talk! he shouted. Or I will shoot you!
I wuld of been scareder but I had to go to the bathroom. Its hard to be scared when you really have to pee.
Vi stepped in between the boss guy and me.
Let Bunny alone. He doesnt know anything she said.
She pushed him out of the way even tho he was much bigger than her.
The three mask guys went off and talked to each other. I didnt understand what they said but I herd the word Spencer.
Spencer is my brother I said.
So they started to ask me about Spencer.
Does he know where is the anthem? asked the boss.
I dont know I said.
Spencer is a smart guy. He doesnt always see stuff but he knows stuff. He didnt see Grampa in the video we looked at. Even tho it was clear to me.
I wanted to call him but I didnt have my phone. It was in my pocket when I was skating but I didnt have it now. Did Spencer know where I was? Probly not. Was he worryed? Probly.
We will call Spencer the boss told me.
Can I talk to him? I asked.
No said the boss.
He left with the other 2 mask guys. It was only me and Vi.
Sorry Bunny she said.
No it isnt. We shuld treat you better. I believe in our cause but I dont want to hurt you.
She was talking soft. Her eyes were big and wet like she was about to cry. Im sorry she said agane. What can I get you?
Uh I said.
Wuld you like something to eat?
Yes I said. But uh first—
I was hopping up and down.
Oh she said.
There was a black mask guy standing at the top of the basement stares. He nodded down to me. The bathroom was small and dusty. The stone floor was cold on my winter sock feet. I didnt care at all.
When I got back to my room Vi had a paper and pencil in her hand.
Rite a note she said. Put down what you know about what is going on and I will deliver it. Do you want to go to the police? I will take it to there. What we are doing is rong. I am on your side she said.
I didnt know what to say.
Trust me she said.
And she left.
That was a few minits ago. I wrote the note about what I culd see from my window—the barn and the speed limit sine—and now I am wating for Vi to come back so I can give it to her.
