A policewoman opened the door to my room. She picked me up off the floor, and wrapped a blanket around me.

She told me, “Your friend was lucky. He found the main road near here. We were driving on patrol when he ran into the road. After we heard his story, we called for backup and came to teach these criminals a lesson!”

The three men were arrested, handcuffed, and bundled into a police van. I got into a car with the policewoman. She took me home to my worried parents.

After that day, Kiki and I were more careful when we went exploring.
