Secret Rescue Mission

Kayla had to act fast if she wanted to rescue the shivering creatures from the bushes. She glanced back at the house, feeling excited and nervous. Her dad wouldn’t be home for hours, and her mom was busy cooking in the kitchen. This was her chance.

Kayla was determined to get the animals into the warmth of her room. So, she carefully picked them up, one by one, and tucked them into her coat pockets. They were heavier than expected and strangely still. But Kayla didn’t have time to wonder why—she just needed to get them inside before anyone noticed.
