Chapter 1. Kidnapped By Aliens
It was still dark outside that morning when Jordyn and I went to wait for the school bus on the corner of the street. On the way there I listened to my I-Pod and let out a sigh, elongating it so that small, white, vapor clouds formed from my breath caused by the chilly morning air. My sister was right on my heels, dragging her feet all the way. Once we got to the end of the street, we put our binders on the neighbor`s mailbox and set our book bags on the wet, dewy grass next to it. Jordyn then leaned on the mailbox after pulling out a manga book, and I just nodded my head and lipped to Dancing with Tears in My Eyes by Kesha. After a few more songs, I began to notice a large, white van slowly approaching the bus stop where we stood, but backwards. I took a quick look around to notice that there were no people at the bus stop other than my sister and I. This was probably due to us being unusually early since Jordyn insisted that we go early so she could watch the sun rise. Either way, I was a bit on edge and tried my best to not look like I was paying too much attention to the van to cause my sister to become suspicious as well. After all, I didn't want to scare her if it was nothing. I increasingly became more nervous and paranoid as I watched it as it continued to get closer and closer as it kept on driving backwards. My long sighs quickly increased to a short, light pant as it began to slow down about ten feet away from where I stood. I pushed the power button on my phone and got ready to call 911 if need be. Clutching it in my grasp I watched the van intently for any sign of movement. Dark windows, large back without windows, yeah, odds point to stereotypical kidnappers van. As I looked over the van, I also noted that the license plate clearly says "New York" on it. Now knowing that the van was from New York, I knew that it was probably here for a specific reason. That reason was obviously not going to just appear out of nowhere so I just stood there, contemplating on whether I would be able to make it to my house, which was four houses down, if it really was kidnappers trying to capture us, or if I could call 911 fast enough with how close the van was from Jordyn and I. The van`s engine cut off and I held my breath in anxiousness to see who or what was going to pop out of the van. As I continuously squeezed my phone to almost breaking part I flinched when I heard the click of the doors unlocking from the inside. I tried preparing for the worst, but was completely thrown off when the back doors of the van were flung open to reveal two very strange, metallic, and futuristic-looking robot-like things with brains, which had faces, in their chests. I screamed and in the process dropped my phone, causing web like cracks to form on the screen. I tried running, but tripped over backwards and fell on my butt. I scrambled back up to my feet and turned to run, but was halted by a strong, cold, metallic hand gripping my wrist. I looked over to where my sister was to see her wide-eyed and screaming and pointing. I shouted, "Run!" and winced when I felt a cold pinch on my arm as I continued to resist. I looked at my arm where I felt the pinch and felt a wave of despair when I saw a small, yellow feather with a bit of silver protruding from my arm: a dart. I now struggled twice as hard to get away before the effects were to kick in, but to no avail. I started slowing my efforts to get away and slumped to the ground in a dizzy tiredness. My vision started to blur and I started losing all of my senses, but not before I saw Jordyn had been tagged with a dart as well and had been carefully placed in the back of the van by the other robot thing. Right before completely slipping away, I heard one of them speak in a metallic tone," We, the Kraang have now acquired the thing that needed to be acquired by the Kraang that which is called the girl, Taylor, and her younger sibling, Jordyn." My eyes glazed over and I was put into a forced sleep.
