Chokichi cried himself to sleep, and Michiko, as usual, kept the ever watchful eye on him. he night seemed to drag on, hour after hour. Thoughts raced through Michiko's mind, trying to figure everything out. She refused to believe the words of that man, and better yet, she refused to give up. She vowed to herself that she would find a way out of this situation and get back to her family. If they are still alive she thought. She instantly disregarded the thought, thinking only positively. Morning finally came and the doctor came by to check on Chokichi, still sound asleep.
"I'm going to put a hard cast on his leg today," he stated.
Michiko nodded and aroused Chokichi from his keep. Chokichi, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, sat up.Preparing his tools, the doctor hummed a familiar tune, one that Michiko and CHokichi's mom used to hum all the time.
Once the hard cast was on, a few men came in and surrounded Michiko and Chokichi. A man, small compared to the others, wearing a suit stepped forward.
"Come children. It is time for us to leave."
Michiko had heard that voice before in the room! Michiko wrapped her arms around Chokichi, refusing to move.
"I guess we'll have to do it the hard way." the man said with a smirk.
