Jenna sat in a dark room.
She was done crying. It's not like it was going to help her any. She had been crying for what seemed to be forever, and her sister was still missing, and Jenna still had no idea where she was.
What almost made it worse was that they didn't even talk to her.
But throughout the day and a half that Jenna had been there, she had realized something. Sometimes they would talk in the room next door, and even though Jenna had to strain to hear, she could.
And she knew it.
She wasn't supposed to be here. They only wanted her sister Annie, and she was in the way. Once Jenna had figured that out, she tried coming up with plans.
Her best one was to bargain for her freedom, and go get some help. Of course the thought of leaving Annie behind broke Jenna's heart, but if she got away she could stop whatever these people were scheming, and everyone would be okay.
Suddenly, Jenna heard it again. Shuffling around in the room next door.
At first Jenna had thought that it was the people who took her, but sometimes they would leave, and the movement and small voices from the next room would still be there. Jenna hoped that there were more people working on this project, but she knew that there wasn't.
Jenna wasn't sure what to do.
She wanted to tell the people who had her, just in case the place was haunted. But chances were that it wasn't, and maybe those voices could help her somehow. Although, they sounded as if they couldn't leave either.
Most of the time Jenna would just ignore the noises, but for some reason, she had more courage. She couldn't just sit around and do nothing. And if there was a chance that these people could help her, then she would take it.
So it was with that thought that Jenna had gotten up and walked over to one of the locked doors in the back of the room. Jenna heard the voices more clearly, and Jenna was a tad frightened. But then she heard something..sort of familiar.
That familiarness was what gave her the courage to stick out her hand, and knock on the door.
"Hello?" Jenna asked, waiting for them to reply.
She then hear hurried whispers and the like, and Jenna had no idea what was going on. Her life was pretty confusing right now.
"Hi. I wasn't sure if you guys were people, but judging by your voices, I think you are." Jenna spoke, and she heard silence.
"I got this." She heard a voice say, and it was kind of weird like he was a robot, but he didn't sound quite normal.
Suddenly, the door peeked open, and Jenna saw an eye. And she then saw brownish hair. She recognized it, she thought. Although, she couldn't be sure. She really only saw a tiny bit.
But one thing she did see was that this person was six.
As in six years old.
Jenna then sat down on the ground, and looked at them.
"Did they kidnap you guys, too?" Jenna asked, making sure her voice was low. Sure the people who took her didn't care much for her, but knowing her luck they would be walking by this door right now.
And for all Jenna knew, these six year olds were runaways, and just happened to go into the wrong building.
"Kidnap? They kidnapped you?" Jenna suddenly heard a boy in the back ask. She heard him push passed another one in there, and he then toddled out of the room, looking up at Jenna. Jenna looked down, shocked.
Because the boy in front of her looked an awful lot like Beck did, only younger.
"Um..yes. They took me and my sister. Although, she's gone now." Jenna explained,and the Beck looking kid looked up at her, his eyes sad. Jenna then wondered something,
"Are you guys also Beck and Winston's younger siblings? I mean, I know you don't look much like Winston, but your eyes are very similar. And you look a lot like Beck." Jenna pointed out, and the two kids looked at her.
"No, we're not from here." The other sort of Winston boy said. Jenna just looked at him, confused.
"What ever do you mean?" She asked, and the Beck six year old pondered something.
"I know it seems hard to believe, but we're not from this world. That, or we're in a part of our world that we don't know about." He spoke, and the other boy looked around the room.
"And let's not forget these aren't our bodies." He added, and Jenna thought that maybe for a moment, these kids were messing with her. Like how they belonged to the people who kidnapped her, and they just liked to mess with the new kidnap victims.
But she only thought that for a moment. Because right after, the third person in the room walked out of the closet, and revealed herself.
And she was Annie.

"So wait. What you guys are telling me is that my siblings switched places with you?" Jenna asked, while the three six year olds sat down in front of her.
"It must be. At first we thought that maybe we just changed appearances, but since we look like people you know.." The boy who preferred to be called Alibaba (preferred means that he refused to be called anything else, although politely) spoke.
"Maybe we just changed into the appearance of the people she knows." Annie/ really Morgiana spoke. Meanwhile, Jenna tried not to be too freaked out about it.
At least with the other two she could just pretend that they looked really similar, but she knew how Annie looked when she was six, and there was no difference between that and the girl now sitting on the floor.
"And we're six." Morgiana added, looking at her stubby arms.
"Do you guys think someone did this on purpose to us?" Alibaba asked, and Jenna responded pretty fast.
"I'm not gonna shoot down the possibility, but by the looks of it, this situation was caused by people in my world. And like you guys said, you're probably from a different world." Jenna added, and the four had then tossed ideas around the room.
Although the entire time Jenna was very cautious that maybe the people who took her would stop by. So if their voices got too high, she would tell them to be quiet. Morgiana also did her best to help out.
"I still can't believe you have magic." Jenna awed, talking to Aladdin.
"Had is more like it. Mine won't work anymore." Aladdin spoke, before he then lifted his arm and touched the one thing came with him from his world. A golden flute. At least, that's what it looked like to Jenna.
Jenna was about to speak when she suddenly heard footsteps. Jenna quickly jumped up, and pushed the three inside the room.
"Don't talk, okay. I'll try and see if they know about you. If they don't, try to escape and get no matter what, don't come out. If they take me, wait till I'm gone and go get help." Jenna spoke, before she tightly shut the door, and scampered to the other side of the room.
The least amount of attention those three got, the better.
The door then opened, and Jenna tried her hardest not to look at the door, or do anything about the door.
It was the man. The bald one.
"Are you talkin to yourself?" He asked, and Jenna just slowly nodded her head. That was a good sign. That or they knew the kids were around somewhere, and she just gave them up.
"Great. We're stuck with a freak." He spoke, and Jenna's heart rang out with pain. Sure she didn't care about what this man said, but it wasn't the person who said it, it was the words that made her upset.
She wasn't needed. It was just Annie.
But that didn't matter. In fact, the less amount of attention on her, the more she could plan to get away and get help.
"Come on. Get up." The man spoke, and Jenna looked up at the man, confused.
"Are you letting me go?" She asked, trying not to sound too hopeful. Not only did she not want to get her hopes up, but the more she sounded like she didn't like the idea, the more likely he would do it.
At least, that's what Jenna's heard on TV.
The man just burst out laughing, while Jenna let out a cough. This air was too dusty for her sick body. The only reason she hasn't been bad so far was because she didn't move much.
That and she wasn't talking to anyone, so she breathed less.
"Hell no. If you we let you go, you would just squeal. So we decided to just do to you what we did to your sister." He spoke, and Jenna looked at him.
"What did you do?" Jenna asked, feeling another cough coming on.
"None of your business." He spoke, and Jenna didn't want to ask too many questions, scared that he would get mad. But she had to get the most out of him that she could, for Alibaba, Aladdin and Morgiana.
"Come on now." He spoke, and began to drag her away. Jenna's heart rang out with fear, not just because she had no idea where she was going, but because she still wasn't sure if the three belonged here or not.
"Am I the only one here?" Jenna suddenly asked, panicked. The man looked down at her, confused. He still dragged her out, though. So she dragged her feet as much as she could.
"Yeah. Other than the two women who picked you up." He spoke, and Jenna tried to hide her great relief.
Now the three could get away and get help.
Jenna just silently wished the three good luck when she was dragged out of the room. He walked her throughout the building, when a sound rang throughout the building. The man stopped, confused.
Jenna felt a tad worried. He obviously wasn't expecting this visitor.
The man was closer to the door, so he glared at Jenna.
"Stay here." He barked, while he walked towards the door. Jenna wasn't dumb enough to try and run to her freedom. You know, since she would have to walk out the door to be free...and he was currently opening the door.
"What?" He asked, and Jenna saw a teenage girl in the rain. Jenna felt scared because the more the teen girl talked, the more she figured out the teen was just here to use the phone.
She wasn't bad, she just went to the wrong place at the wrong time.
Jenna tried to signal the girl to leave. For a while, the girl didn't see her, but once she did, Jenna did her best to silently wave her away.
The teen cocked her head, while Jenna put up nine fingers. She then put up a one, and then another one. The girl got more confused, as the Jenna repeated her actions. The girl finally understood, but the man then turned around.
He saw.
Suddenly, he reached forward and grabbed the wet girl.
"Let me go!" She yelled, as the angrier woman walked down the stairs.
"What's going on?" She asked, as the girl struggled, terrified. He quickly covered her mouth, as Jenna's heart filled with guilt. This was all her fault.
"That dumb girl was signaling her to call the cops." He spat, and the angry woman then looked at Jenna. She stomped towards her, and then threw her leg forward, kicking Jenna in the stomach. Jenna's stomach lost all air, as both her and the teen were dragged away.
The teen girl had muffled screams, as Jenna fought to get her breath back. She began to cough violently, feeling freakishly sick.
"Get in there. Both of you." The bald man spoke, as they were tossed in a room.
"Are you okay?" The teen asked, as Jenna wheezed.
"No...you?" Jenna asked, trying her hardest. The teen just shook her head. If she was by herself, she would just cry. But she didn't want to cry in front of the little girl.
" we have two people we didn't even want in there." The angry one spoke, as they turned a bunch of buttons, and who knows what.
Suddenly, a bright light filled the room.
Jenna looked up at the teen in terror, as they began to fall into the light. After a few moments Jenna got even more scared, since the teen then disappeared.
"No." Jenna whimpered, hardly believing it. She just wished that the teen was only in her imagination. It all happened so fast, maybe it was.
After a while, Jenna then hit the ground. She began to cough more, while she was a tad confused.
Did her voice sound lower?
"Are you alright?" She suddenly heard, and Jenna did her best to look up to see who was talking to her.
Her vision began to get blurry, but if she wasn't mistaken, the boy, no, the man had long purple hair. She blinked, not only not believing what she was seeing, but also so that her vision would get less blurry.
"..no.." She whimpered, her voice still sounding low.
"Jafar? Are you Jafar?" The man asked, and Jenna shook her head. She heard the man just sit there, when he suddenly picked her up.
"I thought so." He spoke, and he began to walk her towards the bed. Jenna could hardly keep her eyes open, while the occasional cough came to her. She then tried to look around, since she was confused as to where she is.
But she couldn't. She was just too sick to stay awake.
Although, right before she passed out for good, the man and her managed to walk past a mirror. And when Jenna looked up to see herself, that's not what she saw.
Instead, she saw a man with white hair and freckles.
"Wha..?" She asked, before she then passed out.
Hi. I'm not sure if I made you all wait too long. I feel like people don't really read this story, so I guess it doesn't matter much. But to those of you who do read it I give my eternal thanks.
I know the story picked up pretty fast, but that's mostly because I don't plan on it being THAT long. And unlike my other stores (my fiction ones) I think I actually mean it. Like how at most it'll have 25 chapters. (Probably not even that many. And even if there are, the chapters won't be too long)
Anyway, I hope you guys loved it, and thanks for reading.
