We got to safty and my mom turned her attention back to me.

"Kurtis can I trust you to keep here put?"

"Lara she's was trying to help. She was playing Rob. Don't start yelling at me."

"I don't care. She was still in danger. Only a fool would believe they had the upper hand in that situation. He could of easily used her as a hostage."

I just sat on the stone ground and looked at the river we were by.

"Are you listening to me Alexa?"

"No."

"Excuse me?" I looked at her then down and let out a sigh. I stood up.

"No mother I wasn't listening to you. I won't listen to you. Not until you tell me the truth. Stop hiding things from me. You always keep things from me. Like when I was growing up and asked you about dad. You never told me a thing! Now all this is going on and you still won't tell me anything. There's something you're not telling me and until you stop hiding things I refuse to listen to you at all!"

She just stood there looking at me. I couldn't tell what she was thinking or how she was feeling. She turned towards Kurtis who's head was down.

"Keep her here and don't let her get past you." Shhe said before walking away. I sat back down. Once she was gone I spoke.

"So here's my plan. I say we-"

"Nope. You're staying out of this."

"Come on you too? You're the one that took me to Atlantis!"

"And I shouldn't of. Look." He sat down. "This isn't your fight. It's your moms."

"So? Doesn't mean I can't do anything. I'm not stopping and you sure as hell arn't going to stop me."

"Alexa. I'm serious. You're done." I stood up.

"No! I told you from the begining, I'm doing this. It's my turn for the advenutre."

"You think this is just some adventure? This is dangerous fight with a very powerful and dangerous person!"

"And? I'm geared up and ready."

"You know what." She reached over and took my guns.

"Hey!"

"Now you're not." He said holding them up. "Sit." I crossed my arms and sat back on the cold stone.

"What would you do?" I said after a while.

"What?"

"If you grew up listening to stories of your mom adventures. Then you get the chance to live it out and make a difference." I looked up at him. "What would you do if you had the chance to show that you were something other then what people say, more than what peopl thought?" I looked back over at the water and let out a sigh. "To show people what your made of."

Suddenly Kurtis held out my guns for me.

"What are you-"

"Just take them." I grabbed them and set them down. Now let's here that plan." I smiled knowing I finally got him on my side, and began explaining my plan.

Kurtis and I went into town. I needed to change my clothes. I got a pair of black pants and a white T-shirt. I put the on and strapped my pistols to my side again. I braided my hair back and we started walking through town again.

We found some of Rob's men. I reconised them from Atlantis so they knew me. Kurtis was buying something so I took this as a chance to see if they still think I'm on there side. Iwalked up to them.

"Hey guys." They turned around. "I was looking for Rob. He took off you know where he went?"

"Hold it right there!" He pointed his gun at me. Guess I was wrong.

"Alexa!" I turned around and they began shooting at Kurtis. I ran and hid behind a stand. I saw a motorbike and got an idea.

"I hopped on and started it up. I took off only to be chased by more of those men. I grabbed one of my pistols and began shooting at them. I had to ba carful not to crash though. This wasn't exactly wasy either. I was doing a good job though. I managed to get most of them. I had to loose them and find Kurtis though.

I took a sharp turn down an alley. I got off and quickly hopped a fence. I ran until I got back to the streets. I went back to where we got separated and nobody was there.

"Kurtis!" I started looking. "Kurtis!" I heard someone moan in pain. I took out my pistols, not knowing if it was him or one of Rob's men. I lifted the wood off and found it was just a man walking the streets.

I put my gun away and cleared everything off them.

"Are you alright?" He sat up.

"I'll be fine. You're friend was taken by those men though. They captured him and drug him that way." I looked in the direction he was pointing, then back at him.

"Thank you." I got up adn ran after them.

I couldn't just let them take him. It was my dumb idea to keep going with this. It was also my idea to go up to those guys. I couldn't just let this happen. I manage to catch up with them. They put Kurtis in the back of a druck and drove off. I found another moterbike and used that to follow them.

It was just me now. I didn't have Zip, or Tyler, or Kurtis, or even my mom. It was just me. I wasn't sure if I coulld this but I had to try.
