Jeremy was woken by a sharp pain in his arm. He could hear his sisters voice, but could not yet make out what she was saying. He was slowly waking from his old west dream, while Ana began to shake his arm.

"Wake up Jeremy!" he heard her say.

Upset that his nap was abruptly ended he scolded her, "Stop it! I'm up Ana."

He looked at the clock. He felt like he was sleeping for just a minute or so but he had actually been asleep for about a half an hour. Not the nap he wanted, but is seems it was the only nap Ana was going to let him get.

"I saw a new bird while you were sleeping." Ana proclaimed. She had a smile on her face ash she began to describe it.

"It was diving really fast." Ana continued, "It was a brownish black color, and it had a funny mouth." She said pointing to her mouth.

Jeremy couldn't stay mad at his siter. She was so full of curiosity and wonder.

"Ana, Birds don't have mouths, they have beaks." Jeremy corrected.

Pausing for a moment Ana said "It had a curved beak."

"A brown bird with a hooked beak, well it might have been a falcon." Jeremy guessed.

Ana was now in her seat chanting "Falcon, Falcon, a brownie brown falcon."

Apart from Ana the car was silent. Jeremy scanned the front seat.

"Where did Mom go?" Jeremy asked.

Ana shrugged and replied, "I don't know."

Jeremy look out the car windows and noticed that they were at a gas station. Dad was outside by the pumps talking to a man in scrubs. He began to wonder if Mom was hurt. Jeremy noticed that Dad's face was far too relaxed for something realy bad to have happened. He looked over to the gas station, figuring Mom must have gone inside.

As he looked about he noticed movement on the side of the gas station. He focused his eyes on the movement. He saw a man kneeling over another person. He was going through their pockets. Jeremy sat up a little in his seat trying to get a better look. The person on the ground seemed to be just laying there.

Ana was shouting again, but he ignored her. Just then he saw the person laying on the ground reach up towards the person kneeling.

"I said let's play I spy!" Ana shouted even louder.

Jeremy turned for a split second to look at his sister. She looked very unhappy, her arms folded. Jeremy glanced back at the men on the side of the station, but only the one who was on the ground was there. It looked like they were crawling towards the front of the store. It was then that he saw Mom bolt out of the store front. She was walking fast to the car.

Jeremy looked back at his sister, she wanted to play with him. He asked her, "Ok, but, who goes first?"

Ana began bouncing in her seat, "I do, I do!"

With a smirk Jeremy retorted "Why don't we play Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who goes first."
