47 - Legend of the Lost Legend
“Marissa cried. She spun away from me. “We can’t let the dog get away! It may lead us right to the Lost Legend!”
She grabbed my hand, gave me a hard tug, and started to run, pulling me across the clearing.
As I ran after her, I tried hard not to let her see the big smile on my face.
I knew my little trick would work with Marissa. It always does.
If I ever really want to do something, all I have to say is, “Let’s not do it.”
Marissa always disagrees with me. Always.
That makes it very easy to get... her to do what I want.
“Dad said we weren’t being helpful,” she murmured. “He was giving us a hard time because we wouldn’t find firewood. What if we find the Lost Legend? Then we’ll be helping him—big-time!”
“Big-time,” I repeated.
I pictured Marissa and me handing Dad the silver chest containing the Lost Legend. I pictured the shock on Dad’s face. Then I pictured his smile.
Then I pictured the three of us on the TV news shows. I imagined myself telling everyone how Marissa and I found the valuable old manuscript—without any help from Dad.MoreLess
