*They're gonna find me!*
"Stop squirming!" he yelled at me. I squirmed harder and we ducked into an ally. He put me down and only held me with one hand as he dug around in his pocket for something. I kicked him in the leg as hard as I could and started to run after he let me go. I ran back the way we came and I was lookin' for anyone I knew and that's when I saw Tyr.
"TYR!!" I yelled as I ran towards him. He didn't hear me. "TYR, HELP!" I yelled again. He turned around and looked, but didn't see me. I started to climb onto some storage containers when Odan got me again. He pulled me off the crates hard and hit me. Hard.
"Don't ever, EVER do that again or you'll really be hurting. Understand?" I nodded and he grabbed my arm and pulled me away with him. We walked for a long time before we finally went inside a building. He pushed me into a corner and put a big chain around my leg and left me there. "Here," he said as he dropped and old cup and filled it. "Drink it all." I don't know what it was, but it tasted horrible. I watched as some more guys came in.
"This is stupid. She's just some kid they picked up. They'll never come for her, they'll be happy she's gone." One of them said.
"They will!! They're gonna find me and make you sorry!!" I yelled as everything around me started to go black.
*". . I hope you're wrong Tyr.". . *
I heard it like a whisper in the wind. Had I not the enhanced hearing, I would have missed it all together.
"Tyr!"
I turned to the sound and saw a small figure attempting to climb onto some boxes. I watched carefully as she was pulled down again.
"HARPER!!" I yelled to the boy as he ran out of the building.
"I'm busy Tyr," he called. I grabbed him and pulled him close.
"I think I saw her. Do what you will with that information." I let him go and pulled the force lance I had and took off in the general direction where I had seen her. Normally, she would have been easy to find, but it was late and there were few people out. Those that were, were unfortunately drunk and wouldn't give me a straight answer. I wandered around, allowing myself to enter the less desirable part of the city. I did not return until dawn was breaking and I still hadn't found her. I entered the ball room after a long security check and found Trance and Beka asleep while Dylan searched for a source of cafine and talked to Andromeda. Harper was on the search for coffee as well.
"Did you find her?" Dylan asked as he came over.
"I saw her briefly, but was unable to find her after that."
"You know how you said some one told you God was dead? Well I hope you're wrong Tyr," he said as he looked from me to Beka.
