Excerpt: He got the boy through the narrow opening he had made in the door. It was pitch black outside and frigid. Like himself, the boy had nothing on but a shirt. Billy tried not to think of the cold, how much his arm hurt, or the ache in his shoulder from carrying much of the boy’s weight. They stumbled into the darkness being aided only by the small amount of light the moon was providing. They finally got out of the clearing that surrounded the house and into the woods. Billy felt the need to stop and rest and try to get his bearings. He tried to remember which direction would take them to the main road without getting on the dirt path that they had driven in on. He knew his best chance of getting away undetected would be to stay in the woods. He was struggling with the need for rest and the knowledge that the man could wake up at any minute. He knew that as soon as the old man saw that they were gone, he would chase after them. Billy couldn’t go very fast with the burden of helping the other boy. But he was thankful for the darkness. less
