Trapped
As the vibrations from the heavy trapdoor hitting the floor die away, everyone stands frozen to the spot.
 |
"Whew! Man! I nearly wet my pants." |
 |
"Shhh! Keep quiet. Someone's dragging something across the trapdoor up there." |
 |
"They're trying to lock us in!" |
Brad bounds across the cellar, up the stairs and pushes his shoulder against the trapdoor.
It moves about an inch and faint light comes in.
But the weight is too much and he has to let it fall back in place. He pounds on the door and shouts.
 |
“Hey! Open this door. Let us out.” |
|
“Who’s up there, you moron? When I get out of here I’m going to tear you apart.” |
They hear footsteps moving about on top of them. Someone walks to the door of the store, opens it and goes outside.
 |
“What can we do? We're stuck down here." |
|
"Wait a minute. Let's calm down and think." |
How can Ben and the others get out of the cellar?
Go
