4 chapter ONE AN ICKY FEELING When a breeze RATTLES the shuttered stores on the road I freeze Except for me and my friend Vijay no one else is here Come on says Vijay It's getting DARK
As he turns I spy SOMETHING on the ground Where did this come from gasp 5
6 A lucky cat statue stares at me with a pitted face and cracked ears It looks old enough to be in a museum I have to add it to my collection of LOST things I don't notice its split tail until Vijay points it out
7 It gives me the creeps he says No wonder someone threw it out It's so cool I exclaim No one has a lucky cat like this Vijay frowns at me More like a CURSED cat he mutters
