3 Chapter Two

They wait until it's 9:30 and turns off the lights and puts stuff under the blankets so Ms. Andersen will think they're asleep. "The basement door is over here", whispered Caroline. They attempt to open the door but they can't because it's locked. "We need a key", whispered Raphael. Caroline snuck in Ms. Andersen's room and found a key in her nightstand and successfully stolen it. Ms. Andersen was fast asleep so Caroline ran quietly. They unlocked the door and quietly shut the door. Caroline got her phone out and turned her flash on to see. They went down the stairs quietly but still made creaking noises. They went in the floor and saw a pet tortoise. "Aw, so cute! I'll name you Shelldon!" Said Caroline. Raphael found a person and screamed. "What is it?" Asked Caroline. "It's a dead body", said Raphael. The person woke up. "More food for me, mommy? Wait, who are you two?" Asked the person. "That's not a dead body, silly", said Caroline. They heard a door open and they hid. "Anyone there?" Asked Ms. Andersen as she used a flashlight. Theodore was crying. "Theodore, it's way past your bedtime", said Ms. Andersen. "Who are these hoomans?" Asked Theodore.

Ms. Andersen was shocked. "What humans?" Asked Ms. Andersen. "The ones that are hiding, mom", said Theodore. Ms. Andersen looked at the corner and found Caroline and Raphael. "Caroline! Raphael! I told you not to go in here and it's way past your bedtime!" Said Ms. Andersen. "Sorry, I can explain. Raphael loves to jump into conclusions", said Caroline. Raphael was mad. "I do not!" Yelled Raphael. "Let's talk about this in the couch. You can come along, Theodore", said Ms. Andersen. They sat in the couch. "Theodore, sit in my lap", said Ms. Andersen. Theodore sat on her lap. "Now would anyone like to explain?" Asked Ms. Andersen. "Well, Raphael saw you taking a plate of food down in the basement so he was curious", said Caroline. Ms. Andersen sighed. "Well, you guys made me change my mind about having my son in the basement", said Ms. Andersen. "Really? How about the tortoise?" Asked Caroline. Ms. Andersen smiled. "Ok fine", said Ms. Andersen. Caroline smiled and got Shelldon. "Go to bed now, children", said Ms. Andersen. Caroline and Raphael nodded. Caroline built a bed for Shelldon and went to sleep.

The next morning, Ms. Andersen woke Caroline and Raphael up. "Caroline and Raphael, breakfast is ready!" Said Ms. Andersen. Caroline woke up. "Yes ma'am, we'll be there in a second", said Caroline. Caroline woke up Raphael and he screamed. "It's okay. Ms. Andersen made breakfast for us", said Caroline. "Oh sorry. Hold on", said Raphael. They went in the kitchen. Theodore was sitting in a big high-top chair. "Mommy, please give me more bacon", said Theodore. "Hold on. We need to save bacon for Caroline and Raphael", said Ms. Andersen. Raphael and Caroline sat in a chair while Ms. Andersen gave them bacon and eggs. "Thank you, ma'am", said Caroline. After Caroline finished eating her breakfast, her and Raphael decided to go outside for a walk.
