Chapter 3
THE LIGHT! I saw light.
I saw the inside of the card store. We were placed in the front, on a rack that said “Webkinz.” I saw accessories, and everything! I kept my eye on the clothing, so I could imagine myself wearing the cool Webkinz clothing!
The good news was that I was on the same level rack as the Lil’ Bulldogs! I could find that Bulldog who talked to me!
Then, a girl came in. Most of the Webkinz looked excited. I guess that must means that she would probably adopt one of us.
Then, she picked up a Toco Toucan, one that was right next to me…and…she ripped its tag off! Then she put it down on the rack and examined the tag.
I knew I had to do something! So then, I grabbed the Toco Toucan’s wing, and we jumped right off the shelf! The sound of our beanbags inside us jingling when we landed, it made the cashier look! She caught the thief!
“Young lady? What are you doing with that tag?” the cashier said.
“I er…”
“Were you trying to STEAL that tag?”
“No! I grabbed the toucan by the tag and it fell off!”
“Those tags are sewn on very well! And that Toucan’s side was faced AWAY from you! There’s no possible way that tag would of come off unless you ripped it off!”
“But…”
“Come with me, young lady! Now!”
The cashier snatched the tag, picked us up, put me back on the shelf, and brought her to the back of the store, probably where the manager was.
I was proud of myself, yet I felt bad for the Tocan. Would it get a home?
Eventually, night time came, and everyone left the store. Now was my chance to find my friend, the Bulldog!
