A/N: Hello fellow earthens! That was kinda bad. xD Anyways, thanks for the support for my first chapter! I really appreciate it! Just a quick note in case you guys forgot, from here on out it jumps ahead 2 weeks because that chapter was 2 weeks in the past. So, here's current stuff and things!

Celeste's POV

Celeste's eyes jerked open. She could feel her hair covered in goop, along with her clothes. Her lungs gasped for air. Strong arms lifted her from the suspended animation tank where she'd sat, unconscious, for the past two weeks without knowing it.

The strong arms carried her over to a couch where she was gently put down. As she scanned her surroundings, which were blurry to her at the moment, memories started rushing back. The vision. Her brother, unconscious, carried in the arms of the beasts. A searing pain raging in her head. Passing out as her brother was carried onto a podship.

Soon the blurry face beside her, the strong arms, started coming into focus. Dark hair. Copper brown eyes.

"Da…. Dad?" Celeste muttered. Her throat was parched, aching as she stumbled over her words.

"Celeste? Are you ok? Get her some water," Kai, her father, ordered the doctor. He rushed off in search of water. Kai cradled Celeste's head in his arms.

"Dad…. They…. They have Zane…. We need to stop them…." Celeste murmured.

"I know, hun. We are doing everything possible to apprehend these imposters. You need to rest, though. Regain your strength," Kai whispered in response. Celeste slowly sat up, leaning into her fathers warm embrace.

The door flew open, and Cinder rushed in, joining the embrace with tears threatening to let loose.

"Oh, Celeste, I've been so worried! I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier….. I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you…." Cinder said through the sobs wracking her body. Celeste was content to curl up in her parents arms. To go back into the lulling sleep where nothing was wrong. Reality tore through her dreamy haze though, and slowly she sat up. Thanking the doctor for the offered glass of water, Celeste swiftly gulped it down. Clarity returned to her.

"Have they been caught yet?" Celeste wondered. Kai sighed, running a hand through his hair.

"Problem is, we can't track them. We don't even know what we're looking for," Kai admitted with defeat.

"A podship. Number 1174. That was the number on the side of the pod they took. They were headed for earth," Celeste exclaimed.
"Do you remember anything else….?" Cinder asked hesitantly. With a frown, Celeste shook her head. Then, suddenly, Cinder's face lit up. Celeste knew that look on her mother's face. It meant an answer.

"Cress! Cress is the answer! She can track the ship, I know she can!" Cinder jumped up, Celeste and Kai in tow. Celeste followed as best as she could as Cinder ran through the palace to her royal chambers. Even though running wasn't very Queenly, Celeste knew her mother was desperate for answers. Like how could they break into the palace and abduct her son without anyone but Celeste knowing about it? How had they escaped on one of their own podships yet had the time to remove all the trackers?

Celeste watched intently as her mother grabbed her portscreen from on the shelf and hastily tapped a few buttons until the familiar ringing sound was heard in the silent room. Seconds later, Celeste heard the relatively familiar voice of her parents friend, a member of the Rampion crew, Cress.

"Cinder! It's been awhile since we've seen each other! How are things?" Cress exclaimed happily. However Celeste watched as realization dawned on Cress.

"What happened?" Cress asked, concerned.

"The stupid wolf hybrids broke into the palace unnoticed, abducted my son and guards found Celeste lying on the floor by the ports unconscious and screaming," Cinder replied in an angry tone. Though the moment wasn't really right, Celeste moved into view of the portscreen and waved at Cress in order to a) inform her she was alright and b) say hello. Cress smiled back.

"I was wondering if you could track the podship. Celeste caught the numbers. What was it? Right, 1174," Cinder asked. Cress nodded, immediately accepting her mission. Through the screen, Cress turned around and yelled for her husband, Thorne. Celeste heard thumping steps on what she assumed was the Rampion's floor.

"What's up, sweets?" Thorne wondered, peeking his head around the corner of whatever room Cress was in. Then, noticing Cress was talking with Cinder, he waved enthusiastically at his old friend.

"Thorne I need you to fly us to Artemisia, Luna, fast as possible," Cress ordered. Though Cinder hadn't suggested it, Celeste knew that was what her mom had been about to suggest. She grew excited, despite the situation, that she would get to see Cress and Thorne and, hopefully, their daughter Camille. They'd been best friends since they were little.

"Actually, while you guys are at it, see if you can bring the entire crew together. Unfortunately, I feel like this won't be a problem so easily resolved," Cinder added. Cress nodded before ending the call. Celeste felt the excitement rising up through her chest. They would find her brother. Maybe…. Just maybe, save the world, just like her parents had done.
