Anna and her mother were in the car, going back home at midnight. It was very dark and the street lights were not working. Then suddenly they saw a big stone in the middle of the road.

At that moment, the car stopped. Suddenly the door opened. It was the big man with the hook! He was a killer. “Get out and leave the keys in the car”, he said. Anna and her mother got out of the car and ran.

The hook took off in the car. Anna and her mother were left out and they both were extremely scared. They kept on shouting, “Help, help”, but no one came to rescue them. Anna’s mother had unfortunately left her mobile in the car. Then suddenly they saw a van passing by. They shouted, “Stop, stop, help; help”. The van stopped. They told the man their story and sat inside the van. The van’s headlights were not working so the man was also scared.

They just kept on roaming around in search of their home. Soon it was dawn and they could see a little bit. Then suddenly they saw their house. They were very happy to see it. They thanked the man, got down from the van and rushed inside their house.
