THE GEOCACHING MYSTERY

Hello my name is Jim I've got a great story to tell, it's something that doesn't happen very often until now. It was typical Friday night and my friend Tom and I were up late playing video games. we always hang out on friday just to shake off what had happened that previous week. This night was so strange, Tom really didn't seem like he was so excited tonight, in fact he seemed like he didn't want to hang out. I could see it in his eyes that he wanted to geocach. It figures because he wouldn't stop yapping about it all night and all week. Geocaching ﻿was a program in which you go out and search for hidden treasures witha GPS. Tom is completely obsessed with it. In fact he is so obessed with it that he wants to do it right now at 10:30pm!A Before I could even answer yes or no he was already out the door shouting "I'll be back in twenty minutes." Appearently the cahc was only two blocks down from my house. It was now 11:15 when I started to worry, my parents just arrived and they suggested in a panick attack that we should call the police. I told him that if he's not back by 12:30am we'll call the police. After my parents tucked me into bed I quickly locked my door and snuck out the window. I snuck down the neiborhood to Evening Star Street, I remember Tom mentioning something about the cach being around that area. On the way down I found a slip of paper that said "Down by the big bro... It was only half a piece of paper, I figured that is was half the name of the geocach name. I looked up and down the street for something big and brown. (I figured bro meant brown but with w and n missing). So far i'd only found a brown house, a brown garbage can, and a brown wheelbarrel in front of my freinds Sarah's house. Under the wheel of the barrel was another sheet of paper that read: "wn shed". i put both pieces of paper together to read: down by the big brown shed. I knew exactly where a shed was. I turned around and crossed the street to the field and went for the shed. when I arrived i noticed something ruffling in the bushes by the shed. It was just the wind blowing the grass, inside the bush I found the Geocach. I picked it up and opened it, inside was Tom's GPS and a fruity scent coming from it. It kind a smelled like perfume Sarah would use. then all of a sudden all the clues came together, SARAH! Sarah did it she took Tom! first there was a clue under her wheelbarrel then the pefume in the Geocach. It was 8:00am when I woke up, i quickly ran down the stairs when i noticed that my parents were speaking with the police. i just ignored them and told them i would be riding my bike. I rode my bike down to Sarah's house. I demanded her to tell me what she did with Tom. Sarah screamed back and told me I was Whacko and that she have me arresed for harresment. I could truly see it in her eyes that she had no idea what i was talking about. she did tell me that she saw some guy pulling a kid by the arm. I rode my bike home as fast as i could to tell my parents the news, but when i arrived i saw Tom sitting on my steps. It was all clear now, it turns out that Rob, Toms uncle, saw Tom geocaching and wanted to join in, but he told himself it was to late and pulled Tom by the arm, and the scent, Rob had spilled his tropical punch on Toms GPS. everything was back to normal and Tom and his uncle Rob came over very often for dinner, and guess what else, I became friends with Toms uncle and Tom and I became Better friends with Sarah.
