Chapter 10
"Mia!" Ivan yelled, frantically searching the rooms on the ship. "Come quick!"
Mia yawned and walked out of her room. "Ivan, what are you yelling about?" she asked as he came running down the hall towards her.
"They're gone!" Ivan exclaimed, skidding to a stop in front of her.
"Who's gone?" she questioned, running a brush through her cerulean colored hair. "It's six o'clock in the morning, Ivan, couldn't this wait till later?"
"No!" Ivan yelled, shaking Mia by her shoulders. "Isaac and Garet are gone!"
Mia blinked in surprise. "Gone? Are you sure they aren't down in the lower deck or something? Maybe they're working on the power core."
"Mia, read my lips," he said, "They. Are. Gone! They just completely disappeared! I've searched this ship high and low and I can't find them anywhere! Unless..." Ivan peered over Mia's shoulder, "You've got Garet in there somewhere?"
Mia's face turned bright red and she gaped at him. "Why would Garet be in my room?"
"Oh, come on Mia, it's so obvious you two like each other." Ivan stated, waving his hand in a passive gesture.
Mia narrowed her eyes and smacked him across the head with her brush. "I thought you could read minds, Ivan. You should already know that I have no such attraction to that irresponsible goofball."
Ivan rubbed his head where she had smacked him. "Okay, okay, whatever, but I think we have other matters to worry about. Isaac and Garet's little vanishing act."
Mia sighed. "I'm sure they're safe, Ivan, they're prolly just wandering around the ship using cloak or something."
Ivan shook his head. "No, I used reveal all over the ship. They're gone."
Mia bit her lip, nervously. "Look, whatever you do, don't tell Kyle and Dora about this right now. Wait until we reach Prox. We don't need to worry them."
"But won't they notice that their son and his friend are gone?"
"We reach Prox tomorrow. If we just keep it quiet and pretend we don't know anything, we should be able to pull it off."
"Mia!" Ivan yelled, frantically searching the rooms on the ship. "Come quick!"
Mia yawned and walked out of her room. "Ivan, what are you yelling about?" she asked as he came running down the hall towards her.
