I was in the middle of class when 5 armed men barged into class. They were all staring us down and I felt like it was the mafia. They walked by each desk looking for someone. They all stopped and circled me. Why would they circle me? I didn't do anything this week but kill a fly.
"We need this one," one man said,"we found the one we need for our plan to work. Bring her with us." What plan? And why do I need to be brought into their plan? Me of all people!!
As we walked out of school, there were kids following us, most of them calling the police. I want to call out to my friends but I know that would get me hurt. There was a black van in front. I was put in the back of the van with 3 men. As we drove away, I heard sirens getting louder and louder. I wanted to scream but I knew it would have consequences. I screamed without even knowing it. A man next to me covered my mouth. "We aren't gonna hurt you. We were sent by your mother and right now we need to lose the feds so can you run?", he explained, "if not, then we can carry you."
Why was he being nice to me, and my mother was the one who sent them to take me?! She could have easily come to get me, why did she have to take me like I was being kidnapped? As we stopped by did she have to take me like I was being kidnapped? As we stopped by the forest entrance, we ran for a cliff as some of the men let themselves get captured. As we got to a cliff, we jumped.
I have never felt so scared but now I want to survive. We didn't hit the ground though, we were floating in the air. I knew my mother was nearby and she came from behind a tree.
"Mom!!",I screamed as I ran towards her. Tears are running down my face. "Why are you here and why did you have to take me like this. How did you even afford this, we aren't this well off!!" My mom was hugging me this entire time, wiping away tears. "Anala, I will explain everything later but now we have to go." I was confused but I didn't ."By the way," I interrupted," where is dad?".
My mom got really quiet. She just sighed and the remaining men helped us into a car. All our stuff was in the back and we headed to the airport. When we got there, it wasn't a normal airport, it was private. "Mom, why are we here and who are they? The people or 'they' you are wondering about are 5 more girls with their moms. Seems like they had the same problem as me.
As mom went to speak to the other mother or guardians, I tried to talk to the others. I have to find out why we are all here. They all looked scalable and they all started talking to each other themselves. This seemed easier than expected.
"Hi, do you know why we are all here?"I asked the group, "I just got here and I'm confused." They weren't surprised at all. " Actually, we were asking each other the same thing", a girl replied. She had blonde hair and red eyes. "I wanted to ask my mom so many questions like where is my dad but she just hushed me and we drove here." Another girl spoke up,"you know, that happened to me too." right when i wanted to say something, our moms said we are leaving soon so get your necessities. We didn't have much since most was in our bag. I just got my laptop and a few snacks.
The plane arrived in 5 minutes. How did they all afford this?! We are all middle class and they dont have alot of savings either. As we landed, I looked out the window to see a very well dressed lady. My mom ran to her and hugged her. When they finished, she came to me and I wasn't ready for what she said next,"hi Anala, i'm your aunt."
