Write a Book in a Day 2017

Chapter 5 “We have to hurry” Drew said. “We don’t know how what they’re planning to do with Terry.” “Where did you say the office was again?” Miss Lotus asked. Once Drew had told the rest of the group that Terry had been taken Miss Lotus decided that Drew, Riley and herself would go to Earls office and convince them to give Terry back immediately. “It’s just around this corner” Drew said as he ran past the familiar berry bushes and trees, whirling around the bend to the place where he first heard of Earl’s and Doris’s plan. As he reached the building he spied in through the window only to see a bushy head. Doris. Before Drew could knock on the front door he heard something that made him stop in his path. “I sold the scruffy dog just like you asked now where is the money.” Earl growled. “Fluffy dog?... Terry?!” Drew was devastated, they had sold Terry, they were too late. Miss Lotus burst through the door angrily. “What have you done with Terry!” She screamed, irritated and furious. Doris and Earl spun around, alarmed by the sudden intrusion. “What are you talking about?” Doris demanded. “He was our friend you monster!” Riley cried “Tell us who you’ve sold him to… or else!” Earl strode towards Riley until he was face to face with her, he didn’t have to bend down to be at her height. “Or else what?” he said intimidatingly. “The whole Scooby gang will hunt us down? I don’t think so little girl. You see, once I was happy and innocent like you and then I grew up, you should do the same.” Riley was left standing there, dispirited and gutted. Earl walked away from her and back to Doris. “Your heart was broken wasn’t it?” Drew asked, stepping out of the shadow of Miss Lotus. “We know you stole Terry, what did you do with him!” Doris rolled her eyes “So what, he was just a silly animal”
