Welcome to Minecraft You'll Never Leave

Chapter 11

"What do you mean we're being followed?" Mitch asked.

"I found a tracking device in the back of our car. That might've been what that guy threw at us when we were still at your house."

"So, that's how they've been getting the jump on us?"

"Yes, that's exactly what's happening."

"Do they know we're going to New York?"

"I'm not sure, but they might." I picked up the tracking device, and threw it as far as I could. "But now they can't follow us." I sat down in the passenger seat. "We just need to get to New York so we can find Adam and Ty." Mitch nodded. "How many days has it been?" I asked, remembering the day all of this started.

"Three." Mitch said, closing his eyes when he stopped at a red light.

"Three days, and all we have his one lead."

"It's a lead though." Mitch said.

"You're right. Let's just hope that it's a good one." My cell phone rang. "Seto here."

"Seto! What happened to Adam?!"

"Nice to see you too Alesa."

"You didn't answer my question!" I explained everything to her. "What?"

"Yeah, I don't really believe it either."

"Where are you?"

"Mitch where are we?"

"Um, Iowa."

"We're in Iowa."

"Stay right there. I'm getting a plane ticket."

"Wait. What we're doing is dangerous."

"I don't care. My boyfriend is missing!" I sighed. It's hopeless. She's not going to give up. If my girlfriend were missing I probably wouldn't have either.

"Alright, just tell us the name of the airport, and we'll meet you there."

"Thanks." Alesa ended the call.

"Looks like we have a change of plans."

"What?" Mitch asked.

"Take the next exit. That's where the airport is. We're picking up Alesa."

"But, she-she can't come. It's too-"

"I tried to say that too, but she wouldn't have it." Mitch sighed.

"Great. Just when I thought we were in the home stretch we have to pick up Alesa."

"Nothing's going to go our way. You should know that."

"Yeah, I figured we could at least get to New York, and have someone mug us."

"Wow, you must love looking on the bright side of things."

"It is but my specialty."

"I can't believe it." I sighed, giving the dogs some food. "Adam's gone, and Seto and Mitch are in Iowa." I grabbed a couple changes of clothes, and stuffed them in a bag. Throwing my purse over my shoulder, I walked to my car.

"At least they're looking for them." I started up the car, and drove to the airport.

When I got there I handed the person at the front counter my ticket.

"Thank you, your flight leaves in thirty minutes." I smiled, and sat down in a chair. I suddenly felt tired, but tried to stay awake since I needed to hear my flight.

"Are you okay?" Someone asked me. 'no' is what I wanted to say, but I just smiled, mumbling something about being tired. "Are you sure? You don't look too good." I looked at myself in a makeup mirror. That person was right.

I checked my watch. I had twenty-five minutes until my flight. I stood up, and walked to the bathroom.

"All this stress is really taking its toll on me." I said, splashing water on my face. Even though I had only driven for about fifteen minutes, there were bags under my eyes. I splashed more water on my face and returned to my seat.

"Flight 223 is now boarding." I stood up, and slowly walked to the boarding gate.

"Ticket?" I showed it to the attendant. "Thank you." I sat down at my window seat, and passed out almost immediately.

"Miss!" Someone called. I opened my eyes. "We've arrived." I yawned.

"Thanks," standing up, I left the plane, and found my baggage. "Now all that's left is to find-"

"Hey Alesa!" Seto called. I looked in the direction of his voice, seeing him and Mitch, sitting down. I smiled, walking towards them.

"Hey." I said once I was close enough to not shout. "How long were you waiting?"

"Six hours!" Mitch said, flailing his arms around.

"Sorry bout that." I said, smiling. "I just couldn't have you looking alone."

"But we're not alone." Seto said, smiling.

"Well, I need to be looking for my boyfriend."

"Fair enough." We walked out of the airport entrance into a maze of cars.

"So, Seto where'd I park the car again?"

"Why are you asking me?"

"Because you have the keys." Seto looked down at the keys in his hand.

"Oh right," he laughed pressing a button, that caused a car's lights to flash. "There we go!"

"I call shot-gun!" I said, running to the passenger door.

"How come she gets the passenger door?" Mitch asked, faking a pout.

"Because I'm a lady." I put on my best british accent.

"That is a pretty good reason." Seto said, smiling.

"You shall rue the day you didn't let me ride shotgun!" Mitch said, snapping his seatbelt.

"How about we take turns in the front seat?" Seto suggested. "I'll be driving, then once my turn is over, I'll sit in the back seat. We'll rotate. The person in the passenger seat is the person who drives when I'm done." I nodded.

"That makes sense. So, I'll be next."

"Yes." Seto said, starting the car. "Then Mitch will be after you."

"So, I get to sleep for more than a few hours."

"Yeah."

"Woo hoo!" Mitch whooped.

"Glad you're happy about that. I think we all need more time to sleep." I nodded.

"So we're going to New York?" I asked.

"Yeah, I found a note, and it was telling someone to go to New York."

"Someone?"

"We think it's the people who kidnapped Adam and Ty."

"Great, hopefully we can get back before the dogs run out of food." I paused. "Thanks anyway."

"For..."

"For making sure my dogs didn't starve."

"They looked hungry."

"They wouldn't let you by would they?"

"Not at all. It was either feed them, or be eaten by small canines with pointy teeth." I chuckled.

"You fed them, they'll love you forever."

"Is that how it works with dogs?"

"Yeah, but once you have dogs that love you, they won't give you any crap."

"I should get a dog then."

"LOOK OUT!" Mitch screamed, Seto swerved out-of-the-way just in time to miss a dog.

"Speaking of the devil." He said, steadying the car. "Thanks Mitch. I don't think it would've been easy to get dog guts off the front of my car."

"Probably not." Mitch said.

"With all that stomach acid it would probably do a number on your car."

"I don't doubt it." Seto said, smiling to himself. He started humming something while maneuvering his car through traffic. He suddenly looked my way. "You probably want to get some sleep. You're driving once I'm too tired."

"Thanks for the advice." I said, letting my head fall against the seatbelt.

"You say that like you're annoyed."

"Did I? I was sincere." I said, my eyes starting to droop.

"Okay," Seto said, and turned his attention back to the room. My eyes finally gave way, and went into a dreamless slumber.

New character! Yes! I'm just swooping in with a crap ton of new ones! Well, at least they keep the plot going. I mean what can I say? This story already has better plot execution than LOAC. I know people liked it, but let's be real here, I wasn't too good with the whole staying to one plot thing. Well, enough ranting, I need to finish off the chapter. Later Legends!
