Prologue

I ran, I ran as fast as I could. Me feet bare, with every step I took there was ice.  “Where is she?” A man yelled. “Follow the ice!” Another man said. I kept running. That’s when a vine touched my arm. I stopped and looked at the vine. I grabbed the vine and climbed up. The walked right under me. “The tracks stopped!” They said, “She’s smart. Lookup.” I started running as they saw me. They started to climb the tree. I jumped down and ran. That’s when I reached the highway.
