In the morning I got up to let Bonny, my black Labrador out into the garden, I called her but she didn't come. I thought maybe I had accidentally locked her outside for the night so I went out the back and called her there. Maybe one of my friends had her left the front door open, I went out into the street but there was no sign of her there either.
None of my friends admitted to letting her out and we spent most of the day looking for her and calling the ranger and police.
By the end of the day it was obvious that we weren't going to find her and after my friends had left I went into the games room to get a drink from the bar fridge.
There in the corner of the room were the glowing light had appeared was a faint dusting of ash and what appeared to be paw prints leading towards it.
The next day I put up posters in the street offering a reward for the return of my dog, but no one responded and I never saw Bonny again.
