Chased: A Short Story

C is for Chased

One year I took Caden to the lights parade in our motorhome. We found a spot to park it and got there a few hours or so before the parade started. We had some time to waste so we started walking around. We were parked by a sort of bad neighborhood next to a giant straight up hill. We thought it would be cool to check out the peak of it and headed up the street to get to the top by going around it. We got to the top and checked out the nice view. Caden and I were about to get going. I look at caden and saw he had a I-could-pee-my-pants-i'm-so-scared look on his face. I looked where he was looking to see one of those mean guard dog pit bulls standing there staring at us. It was blocking our way from going back
