The Lucky One – Final: The rain and wind lashed the branches on either side of them‚ cutting their faces and hands. Beth nor Keith could see a thing due to the storm. The fallen branches on the path didn’t help much either. Beth knew that she had to hurry to get to Ben. But the faster she ran‚ the more she fell. Keith was right behind her and wasn’t staying on his feet well either. The mud was thick‚ sucking their feet in like a suction cup. By the time they made it to the bridge that crossed

“Dude‚ we’re completely lost.” Fluffy groaned. His tail twitched‚ displaying his agitation. “What do you know? You’re a cat.” Michelle asked incredulously. They walked side by side‚ leaving footprints in the blazing sand. The air was dusty‚ and the sun was beating down on their backs. “It’s so hot!” Carina said‚ sitting on a rock. “Wow‚ I expected the desert to have a nice breeze.” Fluffy sneered. “Well it is a desert‚ and deserts mean hot days‚ plus why did I agree with coming along?” Carina

We went tiptoeing along a path amongst the trees back towards the end of the widow’s garden‚ stooping down so as the branches wouldn’t scrape our heads. When we passed the kitchen I fell over a root and made a noise. We scrouched down laid still. Miss Watson’s big nigger‚ named Jim‚ was setting in the kitchen door; we could see him pretty clear‚ because there was light behind him. He got up and stretched his neck out about a minute‚ listening. Then he says: “Who dah?” He listened some more;
