Return to the Fookie Shack

The two sisters sat on the concrete floor in the long hallway outside their room at the Sea Shell Inn. They could hear the loud music from the pool party area below. They were in deep trouble. Holding the plastic bucket of ice, they looked at each other, searching for an answer. Dad would ground them again. He would be furious that they left their room after being told not too. Now here they were, locked out. The book that was supposed to provide a clever way for them to re-enter the room had slipped out of place. There was absolutely nothing to do but sit there, sweating, and wait until their parents came back to the room to discover their sneaking out. "e;Just great! Now we are in for it"e;, the older sister, Gloria, said. At that moment something moved at the end of the hallway close to the elevator. "e;What was that?"e; Ava asked in a whisper as green and blue feathers flew out of the elevator shaft.
