Chapter 18: Ransom

They next few days were awkward. There was always someone with them while they were digging and basically wherever they were.

Kylie had figured out why the camp was worried about this. If someone at their camp died, they would be in deep shit, especially if it was a murder.

Then, one day, Pendanski came into the Wreck Room where Kylie was sitting with Zero, talking. Kylie and Zero had become very close friend wise. They didn't feel any kind of romantic feeling towards each other, as Zero sill loved Jessica and Kylie still loved Magnet, although she would probably never forgive him for cheating on her.

"Kylie!" Pendanski called out.

"Yeah?" Kylie looked up.

"You have a letter."

"Oh!" Kylie jumped up and took the letter. "Thanks." She said quickly before hurrying out of the Wreck into G-Tent.

She looked at the letter. It had no return address.

"That's weird," She mumbled to herself as she ripped open the envelope.

She looked at it and gasped. It was a ransom note. (A/N: I'm gonna write the ransom funny cuz I wanna lol)

I wAnT YoU kYlIe. I hAvE yOuR fRiEnD. If YoU dOnT cOmE tO mE i WiLl KiLl HeR! LoOk FoR mE aT tHe BoAt In ThE dEsErT LaBlEd MaRy LoU. If YoU dOnT cOmE tO mE i WiLl KiLl YoUr FrIeNd AnD fInD yOu!

(A/N: Most of you should be able to read that, but if you can't, it says: I want you Kylie. I have you friend. If you don't come to me I will kill her! Look for me at the boat in the desert labled 'Mary Lou'. If you don't come to me I will kill your friend and find you!)

Her eyes filled with tears.

"I can't let this happen," She whispered.

"Let what happen?" She heard someone ask. Kylie turned and saw that it was Oreo.

"Oh," Kylie wiped her face. "Nothing."

"Don't lie to me," Oreo warned, stepping forward.

Kylie sighed.

"You cannot tell ANYONE." Kylie told her sternly.

"I promise I won't," Oreo reassured her.

Kylie looked around before saying, "My dad just sent me a ransom note. He has Jessica and if I don't go to him he'll kill her. I have to go."

Kylie expected Oreo to burst out and tell her no, but she merely nodded. If it's what you have to do.."

Kylie hugged Oreo (A/N: Heehee Adri..=D). "Thanks! You're the greatest!"

"Okay."

Kylie grabbed her canteen and swung it around her neck, full of water.

"Oh, before I go," She turned to face Oreo. "G-Tent if gonna need a leader while I'm gone. You up for the job?"

Oreo made a huge smile (A/N: Heehee again Adri).

"Of course! Just hurry back!"

"And one more thing," Kylie said, turning around again. "Don't tell them why I left. Just say I ran away."

Oreo nodded, waving good-bye.

Kylie looked around before running. She ran out the tent.. she ran out of camp.. she ran into the desert.
