Renegade Drone

My son had gotten a remote-control drone for Christmas. It was one of those cool ones that could take pictures. My husband went outside with the boy to give it a test run. Of course, my husband had to test it first.

He flew it high in the sky and navigated it above all the houses. When he wanted it to come back, he pressed the "return home" button.

But it didn't return home. It accelerated in the opposite direction. In no time at all, the drone had disappeared into the woods, never to be seen again.

My boy was shocked and disappointed. His Christmas present was gone. We've been searching for the drone, but still haven't found it. My guess is that it's in space photographing alien life forms. It'll be back with some interesting pictures, I'm sure.
