Helen's Arrow

Helen and seven friends raced to the field behind the school. They wanted flowers for the classroom. Helen was the boss. "Mary, get those daisies! Emily, watch out for those thorns! No, Matthew! That's a weed!"

"Zzzzzz ... " The children looked up. A helicopter flew overhead. "The police must be looking for someone," Matthew said. "Maybe some bad guys," said Emily.

"Look, there are two bad guys over there." Connor pointed to the nearby forest. Two men sneaked through the bushes. "Yes, it is them!" All the children waved at the helicopter with one hand and pointed to the men with the other.

The helicopter flew slowly west. The forest was in the east. "They don't see the bad men!" Mary said. "They don't see us!" "Quick!" Helen ordered. "Let's make an arrow! Everyone, lie down! Connor, here! Emily, there!" The children formed an arrow. It pointed to the forest.

Would the helicopter see them? Yes! The helicopter flew back to them. It flew above the forest. More police came. They chased and caught the two men.
