Number two:
Sam felt the sun shining down on his shoulders while he sat happily by the stream. It was a perfect sunny day and luckily he was spending it with Sarah. Then, all at once Sarah pointed at the water. “Look Sam!” Sarah exclaimed. “It is a…”
"Swimming monkey!"
"What are you talking about Sarah? Monkeys don't swim, everybody knows that!" replied Sam.
"Well, this monkey does swim! Come take a look. I'm not joking."
"Okay, okay. You better be serious." Sam walked over to the big rock that Sarah was pointing to. He jumped on it so he could get a better view.
"Do ya see it? Do you?" Sarah asked as she slowly walked up behind him.
"Umm... Nope, no I-" Sam's sentence got cut off when Sarah pushed him into the stream. Sarah stood there waiting for him to come above the water, she was counting the seconds out loud.
"One.. Two... Three... Four... Five..."
"Oh no... I didn't mean for anything bad to happen, it was just a joke," Sarah thought to herself. She started panicking. "What have I done? Sam's my bestfriend, and now, now he's gone."
She put her hand in her pocket to get her cell phone. It wasn't there. "Where could it be?" Thought Sarah. Then she remembered, Sam had taken it from her earlier and hid it in his pocket. She started crying. Her house wasn't anywhere close. She and Sam had gotten there on quads. It would take at least fifteen minutes to get back home and by then it would be too late.
She turned around and saw her quad sitting there. Yellow with black stripes, like a bumblebee. She quickly grabbed her helmet, started her quad and headed home. Going as fast as the quad would go. She was freaking out. She saw the tall trees which meant her house was near. The trees were getting bigger and bigger as she was getting closer. It felt like forever by the time she pulled into her lane. She jumped off the quad and ran into her house. She smelt the sweet smell of chicken and knew that her mom was making supper. There was no time whatsoever to be hungry she had to help Sam!
"Mom. Mom!" Sarah yelled as she ran into the kitchen, gasping for air.
"Sarah what have I told you about coming in the kitchen with your shoes on? I just cleaned the floor!" Said her mom.
"Mom, there's no time for an argument. Sam, he, he. I need help!"
"Sarah, calm down. What happened to Sam?"
"He fell into the stream and, and he never came up!"
"Oh no Sarah. Go get your dad, he's outside and I'll call the ambulance. Hurry."
Sarah left the house in a hurry and ran across the yard to her dad who was just loading his semi."Dad! Dad come inside. Hurry! It's an emergency!"
Her dad shut off the semi and ran inside. Her mom gave him a short, quick version of what had happened. They jumped in the truck, her dad driving, mom in the passenger seat and she sat in the back.
"Dad! Drive Faster!"
"Sarah, I'm going as fast as I can. I promise," Sarah sat there, shaking as they neared the stream.
As soon as they were coming to a stop she tried to open her door but it was locked. "Dad, unlock the doors. Come on."
Sarah jumped out and went over to the big rock. The one that Sam had fallen off. She got there and heard sirens. She looked over, she saw two police cars and an ambulance.
When the police cars and ambulance got there, they jumped out their vehicles and started looking around the stream. Sarah went over to the bridge, to look over there but a police man started yelling at her.
"It's too dangerous over there. We don't need you falling in as well. Stay here," The police man said as he went over and guided her over to where her parents were standing.
A paramedic came out from underneath the bridge carrying Sam. He was breathing. He seemed perfectly fine.
Sarah once again, started crying. But this time she was happy that Sam was alive.
"Sam!" Exclaimed Sarah as she ran over to him. The paramedic put him down. He was standing, soaking wet.
