Chapter 3

During the middle of the night, Buttercup was sobbing in the middle of the room. Saffy was pacing around the room trying to think of an idea. They shouted out of the window, “Help me!” but they were not loud enough. Saffy did not give up but Buttercup wasn’t so positive. They tried to lift up the floorboards but none of them were opening and Saffy was pushing on the walls. 

 

Every so often, Saffy got a bit angry at Buttercup because she was just sitting on the floor. She was slowly losing hope in everything. Saffy muttered, “Don’t lose hope we will get out of here.” Angrily walking up and down. Saffy tripped over a loose brick on the floor. 

 

Frustratedly, Saffy shouted, “Why don’t you just help? I can’t do it by myself!” but all Buttercup did was shrug her shoulders.

 

“There is no point in trying because we are never going to get out!

We are trapped for life!” Buttercup muttered. 

 

Just when Saffy was falling asleep, she heard footsteps echoing from the roof. She looked through the tiny window but all she could see was amber eyes staring back at her. Lilly barked sleepily, “Get up here and give me some wind ups!” Saffy reached out to give her some wind up. 

 

When Lily was full of wind ups, she opened her little mouth and dropped a small key into Saffy’s hand, “It is time to escape.”

 

Gently, Saffy turned the key in the door and it opened. They tiptoed out of the room and hid behind walls. They got to the back door and got outside in the back garden. They sprinted to a forest in the middle of the park and hid.
