CRASH! I was sopping in..."LARISSA! CARISSA! YOU ARE BOTH IN HUGE, AND I MEAN HUGE TROUBLE!" I screamed and raged to the empty room. Where were they? I thought. I started to go to clean the dung off me when something caught my eye. Actually,a few things. The sheets had been tied together and hung out the window. The desks and piggybanks were empty. I ran back into the room and picked up the two notes lying there on the floor:

Dear Mom, We thought we were too much trouble with a double. We ran away. We are heading through all sorts of places looking for a new owner. If this does not work, we will go to the pound. Thank you ever so much for your care. ---Carissa

Mommy, I want to choose how I dress and pick the clothes to buy. I ran away to find a better owner who lets me eat choklit for brekfust. I know that you like me but I want an owner who loves me. See you around. From Larissa

I couldn't believe it. My little Acaras went and did all this? After all I did for them, they ran away. Well, then I would just have to go after them.
