Ah, the perfect afternoon looking for shells along the seashore. While searching at the water’s edge,  Ella notices something bobbing and floating in the gentle waves: a glass bottle. The mouth of the bottle has been sealed with wax. Ella’s heart begins to beat faster as she notices a rolled-up, paper note inside. The note said” Help Me!!!!! in bold and red letters. Ella notices there is no name but, there was an address 20 eighteen Drive Ne. Ella thought. Then she remembers that address, it was her third-grade teacher’s house address!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day, Ella was in her bed thinking about what she saw. She knew that was Mrs. Trailorman. She knows how Mrs. Trailorman is in trouble. Her last name. The people that took her thought that she could act like a trailer, Then all of a sudden she raced out of her bed and got changed and went into her living room. Then her mom asked, “ What's all the rush?”

” Mom, Mrs. Trailorman is in danger here, read this note! Ella said.

 Oh honey, how do u know?” her mom replied.

” I found a letter, by the seashore.” Ella said.

“Okay honey. Okay, tonight we’ll go to that house after dinner at 4 o'clock, okay?” her mom replied.

” Okay, mom”, Ella said,” Thanks”

Later that cold day, Ella and her mom were getting ready to go to Mrs. Trailerman’s house.” Are you ready, Ella?” her mom asked.”

 Yes, mom.”Ella replied. Then they got in there bright blue car, and left.” 

“So, Ella why do u care about Mrs. Trailerman?” her mom asked.” 

“I liked her as a teacher, and she was funny. Ella replied 

“Oh okay, .her mom said.

************************************************************************************* One hour later” DING DONG! The doorbell said. No one’s home!” a voice called from inside. Then the person inside the house said:” I’ll call Nine One One! if u don’t leave!” They opened the door slowly. Get out!” now! the guy inside yelled.

“Sorry I didn’t know u were married to Mrs. Trailerman,” Ella said.

“I’m not!” he replied angerly.

“ I’m so sorry, sir, I had no idea where is she?” Ella replied.

“Leave Now!!!!!!!!!!!” he screamed.

“ Bye Merry Christmas!” Ella called and left.

“Bah Humbug!” he called.

While Ella was getting in her car. She paused and thought. (” Why was that man so grumpy?”) Then she asked her mom” So mom, do you think she is dead?”

"Well she might be," her mom said.
