Shrinking!

Shrinking!

I have to find out what happened to Mayor Bloom! " thought Roxy. She looked at her friends. “ Hey, guys, ” said Roxy. “ I forgot my lunch money. I'll meet you at school. ” “ I can lend you some money, " said Terrell. But Roxy was already gone.

A moment later Roxy arrived at City Hall. But the building had disappeared! “ This is really weird, " thought Roxy. “ I'd better find Detective Smith! Maybe he knows what's going on in Metro City. ” Roxy flew to Police Headquarters. “ Oh no! ” Roxy cried. That building was gone too.

“ Rocket Girl! ” a tiny voice called. “ Huh?” Roxy looked around but didn't see anything. “ That's strange, " she thought. “ I thought I heard someone say my name. " The voice called out again, “ Rocket Girl! I'm down here! " Roxy looked down. “ Oh! ”

Detective Smith stood in the grass, next to a dandelion. He was about a centimeter tall. He didn't look happy. Roxy smiled. “ It looks like you have a little problem, Detective Smith. ” Detective Smith frowned. “ This isn't funny, Rocket Girl. " “ You're right, " said Roxy.

“ Can you tell me what happened?” “ We heard a strange sound, " said the detective. “ Police Headquarters began to shrink, and so did everyone inside. I jumped out a window. Then an enormous figure picked up the building and walked away! ” Roxy scratched her head. “ Metro City’s new skyscraper shrank too. But it doesn't make sense.
