Before the door lock even turned Kyle put his strong leg muscules to use and jumped out of the porch to the bushes nearby his house (the ones that divided his house with the neighbours'). The dor opened and the tall, strong firgure of his father appeared. Wearing a shirt and suit pants he should have jusrt arrived from work. Kyle's dad looked around looking for the culprit, corrected his glasses posture and shrugged his shoulders getting back in and locking the door. Kyle was heartbroken he couldn't stand that happening. He got out of the nushes and squatted. He hopped alonside the house to the yard. In his way he could hear the conversation thrugh house: work, dinner, Johnny's grades, "Where's Kyle? We should phone him" he heard his mother say. Kyle touched his pants but realized he didn't have the phone - maybe the girls had it.
He waited there under the kitchen's window- his mother was by the sink probably phoning him. T his surprise "he " answered it. Kyle could distinguish his voice form the other line.
"Ma, I'm staying a while longer, I'm now heading to Bryan's house!"
"Bryan, isn't that the boy who used to bully you?"
"Yeah! But turns out he's cool...."
"Kyle, what if it's a prank?"
"It's not. Please, let me go. It might be my chance to amend things!"
"Okay...."mother said reluctant.
I bit my lip so hard. That was the machine those witches had- it must have been! It imitated my voice. Kyle wanted to pop out and say it was all a lie but he was a monster, how was he going to do that? Something cold touched his back and scared him. Kyle turned around and saw Peppers his dog sniffinghim and "smiling" at him. The only one who didn't abandon him.
"Quiet, boy!" he hushed it. Kyle used his webbed hands to pet clumsly the dog. He then decided he had to do something, he couldn't stay there much longer before getting caught. Plus his skin was getting dry...
Kyle pet Peppers once more and received a lick in the face. He hpped once again into the bushes and slid down under the branches. "I hit rock bottom" he thought. Samanthat and Rebeca were going to PAY for sure. He hopped ver the neighbour's yard and prayed not to be seen, he did again over another house and so far so good ...finally Kyle reached a small forest by the road. Where would he go next...
