CAUGHT

TRAPPED

Look, I didn’t want to go back in time, I mean it could’ve been someone on the other side of the world but why did it have to be me. At first, I was just surprised that I could time travel, but then I realized it puts your life in so much more danger than ever before. Before I did not want to be like the others that lived in Texas and went to school at evergreen, now I want to be just like that.
My parents know nothing about what had happened on that day, every time I say something about time traveling, it is like someone is rewinding that moment with a remote, and going back to the word I said before time traveling, never letting me say anything about it. It's not like it is my first time I’ve seen something weird, but I eventually gave up on trying to tell my parents about it.
There is only one person that I am glad I can tell about time travel; she also experienced time travel too. My sister Katherine.
I’m Hudson Stetson, and I am in 7th grade. Things started getting weird and crazy on November 13th; I was heading to school.

It was cool, and the sky looked smoky, as I walked out of the door a blast of icy air greeted me. “Hudson, you can’t stop right in front of the door, scurry along penguin.” Yelled Katherine. I wanted to go inside by the fireplace and warm up my icy fingers but when Katherine yells an insult at me I have to accept the challenge and move along, sooner or later I knew she was going to get cold and I wanted to yell an insult back at her. Today she was wearing her usual CHEER shirt and high heel shoes. A year ago when she was in 5th grade, she tried to convince mom to get her 2 inch high heels because she wanted to be just like sassy friends.

Friday is my favorite day of the week, but today I wasn’t looking forward to going to school, and I can’t quite put my finger on it, all I know is that it’s not because of the Russian history test we have today. To get to school, we have to cross a dark alley, and that’s where all the not so good kids go to, like creepy Tod Chucky. As my mind is about to trail off into other random things, I notice that something is wrong with Katherine, the color in her face has drained out looking like she was given a waterlog. “Katherine, I know you, and I know that there is something wrong.” She stayed silent for a while, and once she passed the alley, she suddenly sighed, “I was trying to think about the image I had in my head after we left the house. I had a sudden feeling that when we passed the alley, someone would...” In the blink of an eye she was on the ground, and before she went unconscious, I heard her whisper run.
