Clark had a pretty normal day (not counting his 'small' accident that morning), he had finally got the letter out of his mind and had managed to get his 'accident' out of Chloe and Pete's minds too. They were planning when they were going to meet at the Beanery that night when Clark noticed his Mum and Dad waiting for him in their truck, they didn't look happy. 'Um…I'll see you guys later ok?' Clark hurriedly said to Chloe and Pete and he ran over to his parents. 'What's up? I didn't know you were gonna pick me…' but he trailed off when he saw Jonathon's face.

'Clark, Have you been home at ANY point today?' Jonathon sounded very serious.

'No, why? Dad what's wrong?'

Jonathon looked round to make sure no one was watching, 'Clark, the ship is gone'

Clark's mouth dropped suddenly open, 'You mean… my ship?'

Jonathon nodded. Clark didn't know what to say so he looked at his mother, she was in the truck and looked as though she had been crying. 'Well… who? Why?'

Jonathon looked at Clark ' We don't know, but whoever has taken it…We'll just find out what they want and…look Clark whatever happens their not gonna take you away from us'. He motioned Clark into the truck and they drove home in silence none of them wanted to discuss the situation.

When they finally got home (the journey seemed to take hours) Clark couldn't stand the worried silence in the kitchen so he went up to his bedroom. When he got there he didn't go in though he just stared at the door, there was another letter, this one was pinned to his bedroom door by a large knife. He took it off the door carefully and went downstairs to open it. His parents stopped talking when they saw the letter in his hands.

It simply read: 'YOU ARE MY PREY!'
