Lonnie was in her room, on her computer working a side project for Graves, Mark and herself. But she wanted to be a surprise for them when they got back, she made them different technology for them and is unique to their personality. She had the house to herself, so she had all the time to work on her gifts. Lonnie had been working on this surprise for them for weeks now, and she wanted to be perfect for them. After a few hours of her working, she gets a call from Gyro as she took the call.
"Hey Gy, what's up," Lonnie asked she was getting some fabric from her one of her closet.
"Well I just wanted to check up on you, and see what you are up to," he said as she got some pincushion.
"Well I'm working on a surprise for Mark and Graves... and work on my other projects," Lonnie replied with a smile as she was sewing up sleeves on a suit.
"Oh look at you, someone's multi-talented. What else you can do," he asked teasing her.
"Well I can cook, I can make some fashionable clothing, and compose music, and I can sing like a bird," she replied with a laugh as she started to work on the shirt.
"Lonnie, you are a bird but I don't think I ever heard you sing before," Gyro said Lonnie started to sing a few notes. "Wow, you do sing like a bird, pun intended" Lonnie gave a laugh as she was checking things off from her list.
"Told you so... oh don't mention to anyone that I sing," Lonnie said as she finished the suit.
"I promise I won't tell anyone. But you have a lovely voice, why wouldn't you want to show the world..." he said as Lonnie cutting him off.
"You know why Gy, I just can't get enough guts to sing in front of people," she said as she laid down on her bed.
"Hey someday you'll get over that fear, anyways how's Graves and Mark?" He asked as Lonnie was looking out her window.
"They're good, Mark is heading out of town for the weekend... and Graves... well I'm not sure where he is. He usually travels to a different part of the world," she said as Lonnie walked down the stairs to the kitchen to get an apple.
"Well it's getting late, I should get some sleep and you should too. I'll see you tomorrow Lonnie, good night" Gyro said as he heads to his car.
"Good night Gy. I'll see you tomorrow," Lonnie said as she placed her phone on the counter.
Lonnie headed back to her room, but she had a sickening feeling that she was being watched. Lonnie looked around but she just shrugged it off as if it was nothing. Then she headed to her room again as she laid down on the bed and turned off the lights and she slowly drifted off to sleep. After a few hours of sleeping, Lonnie woke up to a sound of someone breaking into her house and she looked around her room and she opened the door and poked her head out the door and saw nothing. Then out of nowhere someone violently threw her across the hallway as she fell down the stairs as she screamed and tried to get the nearest object closest to her as hit the person. Lonnie escapes the person grasp as was about to get up the person hit Lonnie in the back the head with a wrench. Then Lonnie woke up and was back in the black void, not in her bed, not in the house she slept in the night before, she tried to hit herself to see if it was a nightmare, but she still was not dreaming. Then the girl she saw the other night was standing behind her as Betty had a needle in her hand as she attacked Lonnie pinning her to the ground as Betty plunged the shimmering white liquid in a needle to Lonnie's neck as it fills up in her bloodstream Lonnie found herself unable to move as Betty dragged Lonnie to a cell in the middle of nowhere. Lonnie wanted to scream but she couldn't, she saw the shadowy figure appearing out of thin air.
"Well done Betty, since you lived up to your end of the deal, I'll grant you your freedom," the shadow said as Betty to the form of Lonnie.
"What are you going to do to her, what will happen to my sister," Betty asked as she stared at Lonnie.
"Nothing, she will be safe and sound. She is under my care again, and all you have to do is fooling everyone that you are here." Said Holden he locked her in a cell as Lonnie was motionless to do anything.
"Okay... I'm sorry Lonnie, I had no other choice," Betty said as she left to Duckburg and Lonnie was left in the locked cell.
The next morning or that's what Lonnie thought, she was finally able to move as she got up but she was still in the black empty void. She called out to anyone but no response. Lonnie tried to use her magic but nothing happened.
"Hello, is anyone here," she asked as her heart drops to her stomach as she hears her father voice.
"I'm here my little princess, look how big you've gotten, and it looks like you finally met your brother Mark," Holden said as he appeared in front of her cell as she fell back in terror.
"How is this even possible. You're supposed to be dead... how are you alive?" Lonnie asked as he opened the cell door.
"Well it's an interesting story, but long story short, I did die... until one day, she found me and used some dark magic to bring me back from the dead but only the form a shadow. And all I ever wanted was to keep you safe..." he immediately was cut off but Lonnie laughing.
"You expect me to believe that you cared about me... no, I knew you never cared about me, all the horrible stuff you put me through," Lonnie said her necklace was glowing as she used her magic to break out of the cell as it shot back at Lonnie as she fell to the ground.
"I did care but I wanted you to be like me... but you being the stupid girl that you were... you want to know what happens to your mother and your brother... I couldn't let you leave just like your mother did to me..."Holden said to his surrounds Lonnie like a snake.
"She only left you, because you abused her... and you have a sadistic satisfaction to causing pain to your family..." She said as looked at his father's eyes. "And I know my friends will know Betty is not me," Lonnie yelled as her father disappeared into the darkness.
"Your friends will never find you in time... and I'll make sure they never find you Lominic and I'm going to get rid of your little bodyguard. Don't want him to find out that you're missing," he said as he left leaving Lonnie alone.
"Bodyguard? What the hell is he talking about?" Lonnie asked herself as it hit her. "Oh no, Graves..." She said as she tried to open the cell as Lonnie sat down as she felt powerless to do anything.
Lonnie knew that her magic wasn't strong enough to get her out, she hardly used her magic. And her trying to use all the magic she had was impossible for her to do. And she is hopeful that her friends will come and save her. Lonnie couldn't bear being alone again
