Maria lipped something back, but I couldn't make it out and before I knew it I was being dragged to a small longboat just outside Maria's house. Danta released his hold on me and ordered me to sit and stay. I was surprised that they decided not to gag me or tie me up. Before another thought could cross my mind I looked up and saw Maria through her bedroom window she stood there still crying. The engines roared and took off full speed ahead and that's when I finally croaked up a tear and whrisperd to myself goodbye.

We finally stopped at this old abandoned house then finally it hit me. Why didn't I run away? Why didt I jump off the boat when I had the chance? My thoughts were interrupted by Danta ordering me to follow him. He almost reached the edge of the longboat when he realized I hadn't.

"Are you coming?" He asked kind of annoyed.

I responded nonchalantly and slowly walked behind him towards the abandon house I couldn't make a run for it cause the spider like creature that went by the name of Scroop was wright behind me and anyways I wasn't a very fast runner. We entered the house and surprisingly it wasn't empty it had a little bar in the corner and tables in the center of the room were men were gambling. I didn't pay much attention to them I was more concerned on were we were headed.

Ring!, Ring! Ring!, Ring!

A vibration was coming from my cargo pocket. I realized I had forgoten that I had my phone on! I hurried to grab it but Scroop grab me by my shirt and hauled me against the wall. He looked though my pockets maintaining his grip on me, he found my phone and crushed it with his claw.

"Little brat who did you call, wass it your daddy or wass it that sssstupid friend of yoursss." There were men all around us all cheering for scroop.

"No one!" I said raising my voice a little to try and not show how terrified I was.

"Mr. Scroop let the las' go she 'ean no harm." Scroop had his head turned and his attention off me so I was able to losen his grip and get away. I decided to make a run for it while everyones attention was on something else I would at lease be able to get a head start. I started towards the door when a huge, bulky figure got in my way. I looked up and took two steps back as my eyes widen, this man was half robot his left eye, arm and leg were robotic.

"Now 'las you wernt thinking 'ov running away, huh?" My heart started to race, but I stood my guard.

"'Las for starters 'wats 'er name?" He asked in a calm sturdy voice.

I crossed my arms over my chest and shifted my stance to one of defiance jutting out my hip.

"Why?" I asked.

"'Las I suggest ya do what we ask, if not than were ganna have some trouble." The man said.

"Fine, It's Krista and whats your's?" I demanded.

"Mi' name is Silver. Now Krista I have a job for 'ya, how would you like to be a cabin boy...,er girl on a voyage." He inquired.

I released my arms and gave him a questionable look ."Why?"

"Thats for me to 'no and for you to 'ind out, are ya in or not?" He had a serious dark look on now.

"No 'Silver' I want to go home!" I sayed determine to get throught to him.

"Well Krissy I like ya spirt but there 'ant no 'ay that is gonna ha'ppen." He chuckled a bit and I clenched my fist.

"Don't ever call me that! My name is Krista!" I said behinde greented teeth.

"Krista ya better get some shut eye cause tomorrow we be taking off ya hear."

"Hey! I still havent agre- Before I could finish what I was saying I was already being haled off to a room.

When we got to the room it kinda reminded me of Maria's room small yet simple. Mr. Danta and Scroop through me on the floor.

"Dont get any smart ideas of running away kid cause me and scroop are going to be guarding your room all nite k." He smiled and left the room with a thud.

I crawled in bed and curled up like a ball. I didt know where I was, I didt know were I was going or how long I be gone or if I was ever going to see my friends and family again. I cried myself to sleep that night hopeing and praying I would never wake up.

"Krista!, Krista!" a high voice was calling. I was to sleepy to answer the call.

" Krista!, Krista!" I felt a tug on my shirt.

" KRISTA! The voice yelled.

"What!" I yelled back.

It was the blue blob from last night. Krista!, Krista! it squealed as it played out the scenes from last night.

" I know I know and I don't even know what to do!" I sighed and looked up at the blue blob.

"I'm sorry I did'nt catch you'r name,"

"No name." The blue blob said turning into a question mark.

Hmmmmm I began to think.

"What about, Alex do you like it?"

The blue blob turned into a thumbs ups.

"Alex it is then." I couldn't help but giggle a little. Then a knock came from the door.

"Krista are you ready were taking off in 30 minutes ok." Danta said though the door. I moaned in defense.

"Krista." Danta raised his vocie.

"Fine!" I yelled back. I got off the bed and went straight to the bathroom to brush my teeth and fix my hair. Once I was done with that I walked back to the bed and I stared at the door wondering if Danta and Scroop were still there. I decided there was no point of trying to escape. Even if I was able to get out of the room Silver and the rest of the men were probably in the main room getting ready. I got up looking around the room to see if there was anything that could tell me were I was or were I was going. As I was walking towards the dresser I tripped and landed face first on the floor. I shook my head and looked to see what caused my fall. It was a bag and it looked familiar. I got up and grabbed it, it was my bag. I opened it to see if all my stuff was still in there and shockingly it was my brush, watch, extra shirt, pants, and my picture of my mom, dad, Kaylam, Maria and Kevin.

"Krista you ready?" Danta asked thought the door.

"Whatever." I groaned.

"Common Alex."
