Wow! I updated fast! Thank you Cupcakeheart2005 for my first review and follow! :)

Annabeth's POV

DING, BING, DING, BING! I looked through the window and see my best friend Piper Mclean. She was frantically ringing the door bell and knocking on the door. I opened the door and see Piper with tears in her eyes.

I asked "Piper? What's wrong?"

Behind Piper was the police and they looked at me with pity in their eyes.

I knew something was not right.

I took a deep breath and said," Um, is everything all right?"

The police officer looked at me in the eye and solemnly said, "At 7:06, Plane 514 disappeared from radar. The cause of the disaster is under investigation. There were 66 people on board: 56 passengers, 7 aircrews, and 3 security personnel. No survivors were found."

I gasped and teared up a little. "This must be some mistake! My parents didn't die!"

Piper hugged me tight and we both cried.

The police officer sternly said," Do you have any relatives you can stay with? We checked your parent's wills and they left nothing to you guys. The will was not updated, in fact the last time they updated their wills were 20 years ago."

Piper and I looked at each other in shock.

The police officer thanked us, wished us a nice day, and told us that they will be back tomorrow.

Piper softly said, "Our parents were so busy that they never updated their wills…. That means everything we own belong to someone else. What are we going to do?!"

There was one thing going through their minds.

I said, "Let's run away."

So, for hours we packed our bags and bought some airplane tickets. It was either running away or staying in an orphanage.

Our bags were full with blankets, spare change of clothes, packaged food and water, a first aid kit, and a wallet with some money. We were planning on leaving and never coming back.
