Chapter 4
'Come on Scott, keep up!' Kim called out to her twin brother, before she dove off the end of the jetty and into the sea. This was Kim's last day at home, before she headed of to university. The 20 year old had a relativly slim figure, but like her brothers was well built and very sporty. The twins father had decided to set up an international rescue organistion, but Kim had decided she wanted to go ahead with her plans to study Law at university. Jeff had told her that when she was home, she could undergo her training to become a member of the team. So if she did decide, after university, she could join the team straight away.
Scott laughed and dove off the jetty into the water to join his sister. Kim slicked her dark brown out of her face. The waves lapped at her tanned skin. They had lived on the island for 2 years now.
Scott sat on the end of the jetty where he had dived off with Kim 5 years ago. Time passed quickly when you were in an organisation like International Rescue. He stared down into the water, the waves lapping at his feet. Tears began to flow freely down his cheeks. He reached into his poket and took out a photograph. It was of himself and Kim not long after the Hood's attack. The twins had their arms around each other and were grinning at the camera. 'Oh Striker,' Scott whispered. 'Where are you?'
Kim's POV
I struggled against my captors grip, but they were strong. I was blindfolded and so unable to see. I didn't know if I was ever going to see my family again. Everything then went black.
Normal POV
Emily approached Lady Penelope's office, she was carrying more notes that she had compiled on Kim's disapperance. While at university the two girls had been best friends and after they had graduated and, although Kim had moved to live with her family, they had kept in contact. When Emily had found out about the secret Kim had, she was upset but she understood why it was a secret, and now she was honored to be part of the team.
As she entered the office, she noticed that Penelope looked worn out. 'Penelope, have you been sleeping?' She asked, putting the notes on the older woman's desk.
'I can't dear, everytime I close my eyes I imagine what Kim could be going through.'
Emily went and put her arm around the blond lady, 'It's hard on all of us, but we have to stay strong for Kim. There's every chance that we will bring her back. Kim taught me that there's always hope and light, even in the most desolate and dark places.'
'She always was a smart girl. Thank you Emily' Emily smiled weakly and left the room.
