1. It was Talon’s party and everyone is ready to go.
“Ok guys! Lunch’s over, time to continue to have more fun!” screamed Talon. As the
crowd cheered, he continued, “we will play hide and seek next, so find your group to stay
with and let’s get started!”
As they all rushed out of the house into the trees and grasses of the island, Darius
formed a group with Garen, Jack, Kelvin and Talon. These four boys are really good
friends starting from little 4 year olds during kindergarten. They really like to run around
and play tag or hide and seek, which is also one of their favorite hobies. Kelvin Jakc and
Talon are more of the sporty types of kids, they really like sports and rarely just stay at
home doing nothing. But Darius and Garen are more of the opposite of the other three,
they like to stay at home playing video games and watching television, even though they
like playing videos games, they also really like sports, just not as much as Jack, Kelvin and
Talon.
So then they ran off to the furthest end of the island and up on to a big tree, unaware
of the distance between the house and their location. As minutes and hours past they
started to realize that they didn’t see anyone and hadn’t been seen by anyone, nobody
even walked past. The sky started to get dark and it was almost raining, they knew that
they have to get back. But how?
“What can we do? We don’t have a map, nor a cellphone. How are we gonna contact
anyone or find our way back?!” Garen asked panicked.
“Shhh! I’m trying to remember the path back home,” Talon replied.
“How can you remember the way? It was a long way from the housed, I don’t even
remember the direction we came from!” Garen replied back.

Long Lost
2. “He lives here, Dumb boy! Of course he knows the way around!” Jack said with anger.
“Well then may you show us the way?” Kelvin asked politely.
Suddenly it started to rain, they all panicked except for Talon because he had
remembered something that he always did when he was still a boy and it was raining.
“No worries! I have remembered now,” Talon shouted with excitement.
“How did you remember?” Jack asked curiously.
“Look see, I used to always play with my brother, far away from where my house is, but it
turns out to always rain when we go out. So then my dad built that treehouse that we
always hide in when it is raining, there is food, torches, maps, and a phone just for
emergency, and I know just which direction to go to find that treehouse.”
Then they head off to the treehouse with joy, but when they got there because the
treehouse was too small, they could only fit three. Kelvin and Jack then were left out
waiting downstairs for the others to get everything ready. Meanwhile, Talon made a phone
call to his parents, telling them their location and guiding them back home. Darius and
Garen grabbed a little bit of food and a torch for everyone to make the journey back home.
After they all had a snack, they started to head north as they were told to, then move east
when they saw the big red rock lying there. The sky was dark and the moon had came out.
They turned on their torches to shine the way.
“ Thanks Talon! We couldn’t have made it this far without you!” said Jack.
“ It’s my fault that we got lost, I shouldn’t have chosen to play hide and seek, so it is
my responsibility to bring you back” Talon replied.
Soon, the house is in sight, along with all of their friends waving at them.
