Me: So I got bored, and ended up on the laptop instead of the computer… And my other stories are nearly done on the other computer so I decided just to update on the laptop… for this story. Therefore, I am updating K-Unit again.

Alex: Interesting…

Eagle: Nah, it just means she loves us.

Alex: When did you guys return?

Snake: *yawns* Yesterday.

Wolf: The Sergeant was in a bad mood.

Alex: He always is.

Me: Whatever, I own nothing but my OC's.

3rd Person POV

Alex and Kara were bound and blindfolded. They were led onto a boat and Alex could smell seaweed and seawater. The sounds of seagulls and seals could be heard. A gun was constant presence on his back, the same with Caesar's calloused hands around his upper arm. As the boat made its way through the water, Alex desperately hoped that Caesar and Beth got seasick. Idly, he wondered if Kara was as well. The thought of Caesar and Beth getting seasick was thrust out of his mind, why would Scorpia (or whatever organization they were from) let people who got seasick take them out into the ocean. They wouldn't let such a small thing mess up the operation. And even if-by a slim chance-Beth and Caesar got seasick, Kara wouldn't be fit enough to make their way back to the mainland.

"Where are we?" Kara whispered.

"America," Beth replied, "And you have no chance of getting home."

Alex heard the sound of someone slapping another person, and realized that Caesar must have hit Beth or Kara.

"Why did you tell them?" Caesar hissed, "They weren't supposed to know."
"They would've figured it out anyways, Alex is smart enough," Beth replied and by the hiss of pain from Kara, she had tightened her grip.

"Don't hurt her," Alex said gritting his teeth in anger.

There was no response from Beth. The sound of the water lapping against the boat as well as the sound of the engine was the only thing heard. Every now and then, Kara made a noise of pain. The burns were still bothering her, and he wasn't sure if she would make it in time to be rescued. There was a high chance of infection.

"You know," Beth said, sounding conversational… which really grated on Alex's nerves, "Those burns are third degree. Wonder how long it will take to get infections?"

Alex blanched, third degree burns weren't good. Chances of infection were high. He couldn't continue thinking as the boat jerked to a stop and they were hauled, none to lightly to their feet, and he could hear a sharp intake of breath from Kara. Caesar yanked him out of the boat and Alex heard gravel fall into the water. Rocks were under his feet, he could feel them through his shoes. From the sound of crunching rocks next to him, Kara and Beth were out of the boat as well.

"Where are we going?" Alex asked.

"Azkaban," Caesar deadpanned leading Alex through the dangerous path.

On his left, Alex heard Beth let out a laugh. Again, he wondered where he had heard it before. The only place he could think of was Malagasto. That was impossible, there was no Beth there. Amanda might have changed her name, but this girl was younger than Amanda. And Amanda had never laughed. This was starting to frustrate him.

The sound of a rarely used door, the sound of grating metal, sent shivers down Alex's spine and made his teeth hurt. They were pushed inside. It smelled like decaying flesh, mold, and dead fish. There was also the smell of blood and urine.

"Where are we?" Alex asked again.

"And please don't say Azkaban," Kara said, sounding like she was in great pain.

The blindfolds were ripped off of Alex's face, but he was still bound. Alex tried to look out one of the barred windows, but couldn't as they were lead up many crumbling stairs that were covered with some sort of green slime. They were lead past holding cells, some looked to destroyed to hold people and others looked like they were completely fine except for a few crumbling stones. Alex didn't look at Kara, seeing the third degree burns were good enough once. Despite his attempts, he looked at her. The burns were blackened and some white. Her face only had second degree ones, until her jaw which were third degree and blackened, they were blistering already.

"You'll have roommates, they were tested earlier," Beth said, sounding strangely happy.

"I'm sure you won't die, just don't anger the older one," Caesar told them.

Kara was thrown into one of the rooms that seemed to only have a few crumbling rocks, she landed on her burnt side and started cursing. Before Alex could do anything, or even see who their roommates are, he was thrown into the room. He hit his head against the ground hard, and Alex's vision swam.

"Great," A gruff voice said above him, "Now we've gotten roommates."

Alex sat up, shaking his head, and he crawled towards Kara. Someone else was already there, barely four feet tall, and wearing a ripped ruffled bottom blue dress. Her hand gently traced the burns. Alex turned his head away from the girl, who couldn't be any older than five, and looked at the other man. It slightly startled Alex, since the man looked like Wolverine. Really buff, closely cropped brown hair with some grayish streaks on the side, and looked like he wouldn't care if he strangled a puppy.

"Who are you?" Wolverine Impersonator asked.

"Uh, call me Cub," Alex replied.

"I asked for a name, not a nickname."

The Wolverine Impersonator was starting to grate on Alex's nerves.

"Just tell him," Kara grunted as the five year old girl pressed on her burns.

"Fine, I'm Alex. Alex Rider."
"You annoyed them enough," Wolverine Impersonator said, sounding amused.

"I'm Karen Courtney, call me Kara though."

"Now we told you our names, tell us yours," Alex demanded.

The Wolverine Impersonator leaned against the wall and crossed his arms. Taking his time, and seemingly enjoying the annoyed look on Alex's face.

"I'm Logan, you don't need to know my last name."

"Maya Xavier," the five year old girl said, "Though, I adopted the last name."

"From the Professor," Logan muttered looking like he would want a cigar by now.

Alex and Kara exchanged looks while Maya continued to check all of Kara's burns. There were more questions now.

"Where are we?" Kara asked them.

"Didn't you know?" Logan questioned, faintly amused, "We're in Alcatraz."

*K- Unit*

They were standing around the kitchen table, Ben holding the pieces of paper that Alex had before they got kidnapped. His grip was so tight that the others were surprised that it hadn't ripped yet. John had thrown something across the room, causing it to shatter. Tears were in his eyes, but he wouldn't allow them to fall. However, Ben didn't care about them. They were flowing down freely. The rest of K- Unit had been surprised by that, even at Beacons Ben had never shown that much emotion. Not until Alex came at least, and even then the emotions had come and gone so quickly.

"You idiotic boy," Ben whispered.

A groan came from the pantry and everyone tensed up. Ben slowly got up, drawing his gun quietly. The rest of K- Unit made a formation around the pantry door as Ben threw open the door, pointing his gun into the pantry. All that they found was a brown haired boy wearing a graphic blue t-shirt with a white long-sleeve undershirt. There was some blood dripping into his eye, seemed like he had been knocked out.

"Tom?" Ben asked.

"Trap, it's a trap!" Tom exclaimed sitting up suddenly before lying back down looking faint and pale.

"What do you mean?" Wolf demanded, "Damn it Tom!"

Tom had passed out again.

Me: Well, TOM'S NOT DEAD!

Tom: That's wonderful.

Me: And you found Logan and Maya! If anyone can guess where Logan and my OC come from you'll get a chapter dedicated to you! And possibly even show up if I'm feeling generous.

Alex: Cool, please review.
