After mom kissed me and poppy goodnight she went downstairs and watched TV. Eventually at 11:00 pm we could hear her snoring downstairs , which left us an hour to get ready.  We got our backpacks and i filled mine with an extra change of clothes, sleeping bag, 3 water bottles, a supply of  food for 2 weeks And my Swiss knife. 

Poppy packed a medicine bag and every thing tigon put in his backpack and we slowly tipped-toed downstairs and opened the door to outside. As he closed the door they turned around and our friend cleopatra was right there. It sent a jolt up tigon back "urg, cleopatra" I muttered " what's wrong tiger?" She asked, i hated it when she called me that. Cleopatra was 5 ft tall with long blond hair a pointy nose and she looked like a American doll: fake.

We starred at her in the eyes,  " she is defiantly coming!" Insisted Poppy " why, of course i am" said cleopatra in her 'sweet voice' " whatever " i said. So we all walked over to the run downed house and stopped at the door. Was there was little hissing voices or... was that just me hearing things. I could tell poppy chocked back a sob. I creaked open the door and inside there where cobwebs and dust everywhere and it looked like a kitchen.
