Sofia's POV

We ran hard. I was surprised to see that there was no security to get into Hollywood Studios, because it was a largely populated theme park. We entered near the Muppet's Vision 3D Show. We had to cross the entire park to get out the entrance.

"Where do we go?" Emma asked, obviously nervous.

I couldn't blame her. I could tell all of my friends were nervous. I was too. My dad said to go into the park to get backup. I thought about what attractions were in the park, I was drawing a blank.

"Let's just start walking. Lucas, Alex what attractions are there that has good characters?" I asked them.

"This park has very little attractions, because of the new Star Wars land being built and all of the other renovations." Alex said.

"The main areas are themed with things from Toy Story, Muppets, and Star Wars. There is also Tower of Terror and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. And Fantasmic! Of course. Lucas said.

None were very good options. I ruled Tower of Terror out immediately, I knew the story of that ride and nothing could help us in there. Rock 'n' Roller Coaster didn't have any characters except for Aerosmith and they were a rock band. The Muppets were just puppets, and they didn't seem like much help. That left Toy Story and Star Wars. I didn't have to make a decision. We were almost to the Great Movie Ride. The park was moderately full, not packed as I had hoped. The more people, the better disguise. I heard a sound of a lot of heavy footfalls. The path we had taken into the middle of park clashed with another path coming from the Pixar area. From that path, a legion of green army men from the Toy Story movies, were marching towards us led by a man I didn't recognize at first and a person who I definitely did recognize. I mean, anyone who wasn't living under a rock could have recognized him. But the other guy? He only looked vaguely familiar.

"We are so dead." Eli said.

"Do you know who that is?" Alex asked to no one in particular.

"Judge Frollo and Kylo Ren." Lucas said.

I gulped. They all looked to me for an answer.

"They haven't spotted us yet. Let's split up. Lucas, Eli, go into the gift shops on Hollywood Studios. Alex, Emma, and I will go straight across to the Disney Junior show area. Meet in two hours at the Polynesian hotel." I said.

They know why I chose that hotel. When we were little, we had stayed there several times due to what our parents called a series of unfortunate events. I had laughed because it was also the name of a book series I had liked. I didn't connect the dots then, but they had actually been called back to Disney. We were like 7 or 8, and had stayed at the Polynesian five or six times over a period of about a month. We knew that hotel up and down. There were several exits including the monorail to the Magic Kingdom. I had split up Lucas and I so that each team had a fairlie. In case of absolute emergency, I would use my powers and expose myself. I hoped it wouldn't come to that, but I had a very bad feeling. We split up. I walked calmly with Emma and Alex towards the Disney Junior Show. This area was a dead end, but I had a feeling there were friends here. Also in this area was the Star Wars Launch Bay and Voyage of the Little Mermaid show. I had my old pink Kingdom Keepers hat in my back pocket. I put my hair up in a ponytail using a hair tie that Emma had in her hair. She took hers out of the French braid she had it in, releasing her silky white hair down to a little bit past her shoulders. She had one of those headbands that was like a long elastic hair tie and put it in her hair. Alex donned a pair of sunglasses he'd had attached on his shirt. I hoped it would be enough to disguise us. I looked behind us. Kylo Ren and a bunch of stormtroopers I hadn't seen before were looking around the area for us. I quickly turned around and kept walking.

"Kylo Ren behind us with about 10 stormtroopers." I told Emma and Alex.

Emma paled considerably. Alex just looked around furiously.

"There!" he said. He was pointing to the Launch Bay.

"That will be in their territory." I warned.

"We might find some help." He said.

We walked straight into the Launch Bay. We all took a breath at the same time. It was incredible. Tons of memorabilia, merchandise, and pictures from the Star Wars movies surrounded us. Lines to meet characters absorbed some of the space. It was huge. Lucas would have loved this. We had loved these movies since we were little. I didn't have time to admire it though. We kept walking into a room with a lot of different displays. We had accidently trapped ourselves. Alex took off of his glasses to get a better look around.

"Go together to an exhibit. Stick together. I am going to scout ahead. I'll text you where they are. If I don't come back in 30 minutes, go ahead without me." I said.

They both looked like they were going to protest, but the look n my face told them I wasn't going to take no for an answer. They looked nervous, but they nodded. I started to walk away.

"Sofia." Alex said. I turned back to him. He had this really serious look on his face. "Don't show your powers. I don't know what we would do without you."

I felt my face get hot. I knew I must be turning red. Emma just looked between the two of us. I didn't know what to do. I just nodded and turned away, obviously blushing. I headed out of the door.

Lucas' POV

Sofia took the lead. She was a natural leader, whether she realized it or not. She was amazing at finding loopholes. I thought she was going to be a lawyer one day, although I knew she would rather be a cop or something to do with solving mysteries. Or she would do something with water. She had so much power over it. My dad joked that she was a detective and I was the brains. Not that Sofia wasn't smart, but she wasn't academically great. Alex and I were the brains in our group. His brain absorbed weird facts in academic subjects like a sponge. If he got less than a 97% in any subject, he would be disappointed. I didn't really care what grade I got. I usually got straight As, so I really didn't worry a lot about it. Emma was ridiculously artsy. I don't mean she just sits and draws and makes crafts all day. She is extremely creative and she is also crazily athletic. Her creative side comes out in her dancing and acting. She has won so many awards in dance and got all of the lead parts in the school play since she was 8. But she is also pretty good in soccer, basketball, lacrosse, basically anything athletic at all because of her dance experience. Then there is Eli, his dad is so artsy and his mom is so athletic. Let's just say, he got all of his mom's athletic ability while he got none of the artistic ability. Emma and Eli argue like crazy. Eli is so bigheaded, but in a weird way that makes him an individual. There is just something about him that makes everyone like him. He is on every varsity team in his school. Emma is good, but Eli is just over the top.

Sofia put me with Eli. She knew they would be after me, so she put Eli with me to protect Emma and Alex, who was not very sporty except for archery and rock-climbing. Eli had taken martial arts when he was little, so he could fight if it came to that. The Polynesian hotel was genius. We knew it so well. Now I had to focus on getting out with Eli. I looked behind us. Judge Frollo and the green army men had spotted us. We were almost to the edge of Hollywood Boulevard. I watched out of the corner of my eye as Sofia, Alex and Emma reached Animation Courtyard. Kylo Ren and stormtroopers had followed them, but they seemed to have lost them for a few seconds.

"Don't look back" I said to Eli.

Just then, we were cut off. Coming off of Sunset Boulevard, were more of the green army men. They were covered in dark green with huge boots causing the sound I heard of dozens of marching men.

"We're nearly surrounded. They are going to cut us off before we can get out." Eli said.

"On my count break into a run. 1… 2… 3!" I said.

We broke at the same time. We were probably the best runners in the group. Sofia of course beat all of us in swimming, but running was my thing. We headed straight for the exit.

"Stop!" An accented voice shouted behind us. We kept going sprinting harder than we ever had to before.

"Hey! What the?" a gruff voice said in front of us. Two security guards stood staring at the oncoming of the army men.

We ran on either side of them and I heard them call for backup. We made it out of the park and thank goodness there was already a bus to the Polynesian waiting for us. We hopped on and the bus doors closed behind us. I saw that the army guards hadn't tried to follow us out of the park.

Alex's POV

Sofia left us. I looked over at Emma, who was paler than I had ever seen her. She turned away towards another exhibit. I was surprised to see she was smiling, more like smirking.

"What?" I asked her.

"You two are so cute!" she said, her smirk now turning into a full-on grin.

I felt my face getting warm. "Emma, we are in a life or death situation and…" I started, but I was cut off as two things entered the room. Stormtroopers.

"There!" One of them said. They both raised their guns up at us. I had an idea. I raised my hands up like in surrender. With one look, Emma did so as well. She could tell when I had a plan.

"Come with us." One of them said, grabbing my arm and putting it behind my back. We walked outside into the middle of the Animation Courtyard, guns aimed at our heads. Tourists were watching and taking photos, not really understanding what's going on. I couldn't see Sofia anywhere, and I seriously hoped she was okay. The stormtroopers pushed us into the middle of the area. There we faced Kylo Ren, and I could practically feel Emma's confidence slipping. That's the thing about Emma, when she's confident in what she's doing, no one's better. But when she isn't, it can get messy.

"Where are your friends?" he asked calmly. He was wearing his mask.

"I don't know, sir." I said. It wasn't a total lie. I didn't know where they were at this point. Hopefully, Sofia was well-hidden and Lucas and Eli were out of the park. But I was not going to tell him anything.

"I don't believe you." He said. He came up close to me, practically in my face.

"Try again." He said.

"I don't know. Neither of us do. We got separated." I said, trying to add more into the explanation than I could have. He seemed to consider me for a few seconds.

"We don't want you two." He said after a minute. "We only need the Whitman boy."

I already knew that little piece of information. We all had figured that out. We used that to our advantage. Sofia always knows who is best for each job and each team. She put Eli and Lucas, the best runners together. She knew they would be after Lucas and she put Eli with him so they could make a quick getaway. She also split herself and Lucas up so each team had a fairlie. She is just so good at what she does. She has always been like that. We have been friends since we were born. I wasn't going to throw any of our friends under the bus.

"That's too bad, because we don't know where he is." I said.

He back away from me and turned to Emma. I watched her color draining. She was already pale skinned to begin with, and now she looked like she could've been dead. He twisted her white hair in his hands. I was starting to get afraid that she might faint from stress.

"You have a meeting spot. Tell me it." He said to her.

Emma looked like she might cry. But then I saw something in her eyes. It was the same thing she had in it when she was on stage. I had to bit my lip to stop from smiling.

"Okay!" she said loudly, her voice cracking. She looked at him right where his eyes should be. "We were supposed to get out of the park and meet at the Art of Animation resort." Tears streamed down her face.

I tried to help her acting look real. I attempted to look disappointed and slightly mad. "Emma, you just sold them out. Are you nuts?" I said.

She looked at me. "I'm sorry, Alex. But Lucas scares me. Maybe he needs to be taken for everybody's protection."

I knew she was acting and she didn't really mean it, but she sure was convincing. I looked away from her.

"Well." Kylo Ren said. "We can make that happen. You may go."

"That's it?" I asked.

"Yes. But leave now, before we change our minds." He said.

Emma grabbed my arm and pulled me away. After we got far enough away I said, "You are a genius, Emma. Truly."

She smiled. "Was I convincing enough?" she asked.

"You were fantastic. We have to warn Sofia, though. I didn't see her anywhere around there." I said, my fear coming back.

"She wouldn't leave us. I think she was going to try to lure them away. She's probably laying low until she can get out."

I pulled out my phone and texted Sofia that we were on our way to the hotel. There was no answer.

Sofia's POV

I headed straight out of the room. I took a route to back to the front of the Launch Bay. I slipped out of entrance and into a shop next to the exit. I watched as several stormtroopers entered the Launch Bay. I needed to warn Alex and Emma. My original plan was to lure them away but that was not going to work now. I pulled out my phone to text Alex but a hand close around my mouth. I started to struggle but it was no use. Whoever had me was supernaturally strong. I managed to pull them off of me for a few seconds and whipped around. I stared for a few seconds not believing my eyes. Noah Luowski and another kid I didn't recognize were directly behind me. I looked around for help but the cast member didn't seem to realize what was happening. I started to leave but Luowski's friend grabbed my arm and threw me into the wall. I fell to the ground in a heap, my hat slipping off of my head in the process. I tried to get up, but I saw stars and everything went blurry. I had hit my head very badly. I tried to push through, but Luowski seemed to catch up to my head start. His friend held me down as I tried to get up. Luowski pushed a needle filled with some green liquid into arm. I felt my breathing grow deeper and my eyes get heavier. Before I knew it, everything went black and I could feel my body being lifted up and carried off.

Author's Note:

So, I know this is a long chapter, but I didn't want another chapter so split up. I want you guys to give me some feedback on the chapter lengths. Do you think it should be shorter and more often or longer and less often. This is the longest chapter yet and I want to know if you want that or not. Also, where do you think Noah Luowski and the other OTK took Sofia? What was in the needle? How will the other Keepers' kids handle her being missing? I want to know your thoughts as much as possible so I know you guys are still interested in this story. See you guys for Chapter 16! :D
