This one is dedicated to Glen Springs elementary for helping me learn from Kindergarten to fifth grade.

Rosie followed The Great Dog into the clearing that she had known for about a day now. " Well, young Rosie, here we are. It is time for me to, as I promised, tell you what I need your help with." Rosie nodded eagerly, ready to hear the important news. " I'm ready." She says with a calm smile. The grey and white dog sighs and begins to speak. " The thing that we desperately need you to help with is..." Rosie holds her breath.

"Well, there is this woman who goes by the name of Anne Marie Marcher." Rosie nods. "I know her." "Anyways, as you probably know, she passed away just a week ago." 

Well, there is this woman...

I know her.

"And, when she passed, she became a ghost. A mean ghost at that. She always has hated dogs, but she only died because a young Golden Retriever came and bit her leg for smacking him with her stick."

"Once Anne was dead, she decided she wanted revenge on the dogs. This is what sent her-as a ghost- into the dark forest on the edge of town. Anne seems to be quite close to discovering The land of the dogs, so..." Rosie's head shot upward. "That is what you need my help with!"She cried.

"Yes. Every two days, Anne haunts her old mansion on the hill and each one of those nights, one of the dogs from town disappears. No one knows where she keeps them..."

"Your mission is to go with Zoraline here in order to stop her for good. Think you can do it?" Rosie's smile grows even bigger. "Yes. I think I can." She replies. Just then, the small brown dog known as Ron hops out from the shadows. "Mornin' your greatest! Its time for your breakfast. Oh! Good morning to you, too, Rosie!" He says in his funny little voice. "Good morning, Ron." Rosie walks over and scratches his furry back with her soft hands. He says goodbye and walks back with The Great Dog, leaving Rosie all alone with Zoraline.

"Well, Rosie, it looks like its down to just you and me. Shall we go?" The beige dog asks. Rosie looks down at Zoraline and takes a deep breath. "Okay." She says. "Let's go." Then, the brave team takes off through the magic portal to the human world. "Its faster this way." Zoraline says. And, Rosie trusted her. After all, she had been here her whole life! 

Whoooooaaaahh!

Whoooaaahh!!!

" Whoooaaahh!!!" Rosie and Zoraline say at the same time. "Phew!" Says Rosie when its over. They both give a big sigh of relief as they step into the human world.
