Secrets Part 2.

Tiana sighed and held back the tears the pain of remembering that evening brought. Tiana was still shaking but managed to calm down a bit and really look at the picture and think this whole thing through. The policemen had given her his wallet that night and everything she thought that should be in there was, so what was this? What was this piece of black leather that laid before her? This made absolutely no sense. If she was given Naveen's wallet, then why would it be here? She didn't bring the wallet and she definitely didn't stuff it in the back of Rafael's back pocket.

'Something isn't right', Tiana thought to herself. Tiana looked around to see if anyone was coming, but saw no one. 'Guess they're still looking at Maldonia', Tiana thought. Tiana tried her hardest to come up with an explanation for this, but just couldn't. The only thing she could think of is that either one of the wallets is a fake or Rafael stole the wallet. The first lead into a whole conspiracy theory and fraud with the policemen that was hard for Tiana to believe and way too much to think about, and the second was nearly impossible since Rafael didn't step a foot upstairs where she kept the wallet. So then what's going on?!

Before Tiana could think about it any farther the kids, Tiana's mother, and Rafael footsteps came into earshot. Tiana quickly scrambled to get everything into place. She shoved the license into the wallet in the stuffed the wallet place she could think of, her dress. She slipped into her dress and let it rest her bra. She crossed her arms, trying not to draw attention to the area.

"Mama! Mama! Maldonia is so beautiful!" Jazzy squealed.

"Yeah, shes right Mama!" James said nodding his head, "it's really something"

Tiana smiled she was happy her kids liked it, they would be staying there for awhile.

"That's good babies, now come and finish up your breakfast" Tiana commanded lightly. Jazzy and James both sat down and quietly started chewing on their half eaten breakfast.

"...Yeah." Eudora said quietly taking her seat. Something was wrong, she knew it. Even though this is her mother's second time visiting Maldonia, she knew that she had kept a vivid description of the paradise etched in her mind. She even said she could never get tired of the view. Tiana always knew that if she saw it again she would have the same reaction and use the same word to describe it, breath taking.

"Mama?" Tiana said in a hushed voice so only her mother heard, her mother looked her way and just shook her head 'no.' As if trying to warn her without actually physically voicing it. What was wrong? Did something happen up there with her babies? Did Rafael touch them?

Tiana's attention turned back to Rafael who was politely waiting for the conversation to end so he could have a word with Tiana.

"Oh. Hello." Tiana said trying to be polite as possible, but when she looked at him this anger in the pit of her stomach started to boil, soon she could barely contain herself, for some reason her instinct kept telling her, 'strangle him! strangle his crazy ass!'

Rafael flashed her his best smile and took a seat right next to her. Tiana quickly tried to cover her chest trying not to seem suspicious either.

"Hello, Miss Tiana. Today is your family's last day on this ship. We should be docking in 30 minutes" he said happily. Tiana nodded her head put on her best fake smile.

"Hm, well I have good news" Rafael said turning to the entire family, "Once we get there we are going straight to the palace, you will be introduced to the king and the servants will handle you there. I will being seeing often actually since I work in the palace. So it looks like this isn't farewell."

He flashed another smile and left.

Tiana sighed in relief, she didn't think she could hold in her rage any longer. She didn't know why all of sudden she started hating that man. Okay, well there was the wallet thing, but still. She has never really hated someone that quickly, that fast.

"Mama, I'm done with my breakfast" Jazzy said bringing Tiana out of her thoughts. Tiana just nodded her head, but Jazzy wasn't finished talking.

"Can I go to the play room please?" Jazzy asked smiling, Tiana nodded her head but said she had to go with James. So before Tiana could blink they kids were already rushing to the play room.

"James! Watch your sister! Be careful! Have fun!" Tiana called after them, her motherly instincts kicking in. Now there were two. Tiana turned to look at her mother. Eudora's face was etched with concern, discomfort, and a tinge of fear. Tiana also became a bit frightened, she hated seeing her mother like this, and worse she didn't know what was wrong so she couldn't help her. What's going on with her mother?

"Mama! What's going on?" Tiana said her voice cracking a bit, Tiana couldn't help it. She just couldn't contain her emotions in the presence of her mother. It's like she was her weakness when it came to emotions.

Eudora looked around, the emotions still evident on her features. She turned back to Tiana after she deemed the coast clear to speak.

"Tiana," Eudora said grabbing onto Tiana's hand and squeezing it as if it was their last goodbye. She spoke in a low whisper, "we must get off this boat now". Tiana was taken back with what her mother just said. Get off this boat?! The urgency in her mother's eye was nerve racking and she was so confused that she was beginning to get a headache.

"Why?"

"Because!", Eudora said squeezing Tiana's hands again "this isn't Maldonia This ship isn't taking us there, I don't know where we are but it's not Maldonia! Tiana we need to leave now! Trust me!" Eudora face looked so scared as she said that, and she was. She looked how she felt and who could blame her? She was on a boat with strangers and everyone's life was in danger.

Tiana was speechless, she stopped thinking. Her mind was completely blank. She knew her mother was correct because every time she said 'trust me' it meant that this was no game and that they were in serious danger. Tiana started shaking, she couldn't help it. If she was around someone else she still would be scared but she wouldn't so as much emotion as she was now. As she said before her mother is her weakness.

Tiana was just so scared, she couldn't describe it any other way. It was just fear. She was in a blank state of mind, but then all of a sudden she remembered the wallet. Without thinking twice she put her hand down her dress and removed the wallet from her bra. While doing so, she bushed a bit, wondering what her mother was thinking at the moment, but then she let that go and focused on what was going on right now.

"Here. Rafael's wallet" Tiana said discretely putting it in Eudora's hands. Eudora's eye brow shot up in confusion. 'What is Tiana doing with his wallet? Were they...no. Why I'm thinking like that' Eudora thought, then scolded herself harshly for thinking such thoughts about her daughter.

Eudora took the wallet and looked it confused, Tiana sensed the confusion and told her to look inside and once she did couldn't believe what she saw.

"Naveen." she pulling out the drivers license. She gasped and forced back the tears. Eudora hand was shaking furiously as she tried to keep herself in check.

"I know you're right. Let's get Jazzy and James and go" Tiana said standing up. Eudora put the license away, slipping the wallet into her jacket pocket.

"There is a little boat on the side we can use that and try to get attention of another boat" Eudora whispered in Tiana's ear as they started walking into the play room. Tiana nodded her head as she speed walked into the room. She felt a little bit better seeing Jazzy and James peacefully playing together.

"Jazzy, James time to go" Tiana called, her voice wasn't as gentle as usual but it still wasn't harsh.

"Already? 'Kay" James said walking to his mother, Jazzy following him.

Eudora grabbed hold of kids' hands and rushed to their rooms to pack some clothing. James was confused as to way they looked so worried and were rushing, but he dismissed the thought as they were to be docking any minute and they weren't ready. But it was still in the back of his mind, 'somethings not right' . Jazzy on the other hand knew something was up, but she didn't say anything she just followed her grandmother's lead.

Tiana rushed to the front of the boat and looked out to see Eudora was indeed correct. It wasn't Maldonia, it was some small tropical island. She was surprised Jazzy of all people believed that was Maldonia. She studied up on it all night before they left and she swore she could draw an exact picture of the place without even trying. Tiana tried to control her fear as she thought about what could happen if they were caught sneaking away. Were these men armed? Would they hurt them? Why did they want them!? She started to get a bit furious, everything always seemed to happen to her family. It was as the universe wanted to put all the troubles of the world on them, it was painful and she couldn't bear it. She then stopped, she wasn't going to be helpless. If people wanted to cause her family pain, then she was going to give it right back. Right now her family was in danger and she was going to protect them! She cleared her head of those thoughts. 'Well not today'. Today she wasn't playing any games. She soon felt her confidence rise as she went to where the small boat lay.

She made sure that everything was there. Life jackets, an emergency kit, and lastly a flare gun. Tiana smiled, maybe they could make it. She turned around and smiled. But Tiana's happiness would soon be ruined, because there was a figure lurking in the shadows unbeknownst to Tiana and her family. Watching their every move, their whole conversation, their whole plan to escape, he knew it all. And he was going to stop it all no matter what. No one was leaving this boat.

"Th-"

"Tiana!" Rafael was right behind her the whole, watching her. He had wicked smile on his face.

"Rafael!" Tiana screamed in fear. This man, was watching her the whole time. How sick!

"What are you doing?" he asked stepping closer to her, a devilish grin on his face.

"Uh..uh..n-nothing" she said stuttering, she backed up a bit trying to distance the space between them.

"I don't think so. Are you trying to leave?" Rafael said closing the window of space between them, he grabbed Tiana's shoulders in a strong grip despite her protest.

"Let go! Why would I go?! Leave me alone!" Tiana yelled, trying to kick him.

"Ooh, Tiana," he purred in her ear, "you're so feisty, don't you know that turns me on?"

"You disgusting man!" Tiana yelled kicking him powerfully in his right leg.

He let go for a brief second to let the pain set in, but that was a mistake on his part, for that was all Tiana needed to break free. The minute she was out of his hold she sprinted down to her mother's cabin.

"GET BACK HERE YOU BITCH!" Rafael yelled chasing after her.

Tiana quickened her pace as she heard his footsteps getting closer. She tried to go faster, but she wasn't fast enough. She could hear him getting closer, any minute now he would be right behind her. She had to keep going, but she couldn't, she jus-

"MAMA!" she heard someone's voice yell. She identified the voice as Jazzy. Her young daughter screaming for her. The voice was shaky and there was a faint sound of crying after it. That was all Tiana needed. She bolted to where she heard the sound, leaving the Rafael in the dust. He could catch up to her but it would be to late, nothing would keep Tiana away from her child.

When Tiana reached Jazzy her heart stopped. She didn't expect this. She had expected to see Jazzy, James, and Eudora all together ready to go. Not this! She just couldn't believe what was happening before her eyes. She couldn't describe the pain she felt that tackled her the instant she laid her eyes upon the scene before her.

3 men were holding guns to Jazzy's head, Jame's and Eudora's.

The men made them get on there knees and put their hands up. Each of the men stood behind one individual person, guns directly at the back of their head. Jazzy was crying a river, she couldn't contain her emotions knowing that any minute someone could pull the trigger, while James was silently crying, his lips bleeding. It was obvious that one of the men had struck James, most likely the man behind him. Eudora was mouthing 'sorry' to her, then closing her eyes in shame.

Each of the men wore black shades concealing their eyes. Two were white and one black, they had emotionless expressions as if it was just a regular day, nothing out of the ordinary.

Rafael had finally caught up to her. He seemed out of breath, but still had a sick smile on his face. Tiana was frozen in her spot, still too shocked to move. Rafael took advantage of this and pulled out a gun and slowly put it to Tiana's neck, literally daring her to try anything. Tiana felt the coldness of the tip of the gun on her neck. She closed her eyes and prayed to God, asking her to keep her family safe. She knew this was it. What she was about to do was going to cost either Rafael or her life. But no matter what she would die protecting her family and that's just what she did.

She quickly turned around and punched Rafael in square in the face. Rafael stumbled back not expecting that much force to come from such a delicate hand, but then again she did hurt him with that kick. He clutched his nose as he felt blood dripping down, she got him, that he would admit, but nothing was going to save her now. Not even a blow to the face would change her fate. 'What a foolish woman' Rafael thought. The men removed their guns from their hostages' heads and pointed it at Tiana. Showing her that she had just made a huge mistake. A mistake that would ultimately cost her her life.

Tiana knew that it was the end and there was generally no way that she was going to survive, but that didn't decrease her confidence one bit. Her family deserved the world after everything she had put them through. She couldn't imagine living such a life. It was too much to bear, but yet she had put her family through and even her life wasn't enough payment for what they had to endure. Tiana looked at James who was full on crying right now. His mom was there risking her life to protect them! But here he was crying! How could he? He needed to protect his family, but yet he was to weak to do so. He had failed. Tiana could clearly see all the emotions running through his face. Pain, grief, worry, failure. It hurt Tiana more to think she was causing this.

James locked eyes with his mother and mouthed 'No', his eyes pleading her to stop. Tiana just smiled at him, as if telling him that no matter what happens she knows that he will protect this family and do good in this imperfect world. His eyes screamed 'NO!' but it was too late she had already switched her attention to Jazzy who looked like she would faint any minute.

"Mama! I just want to say I love you. Please don't do this...please.." Jazzy said her voice cracking.

'I love you' Tiana mouthed, then she moved on to her mother as Jazzy started screaming, begging her mother to rethink her actions. "Tiana...do as they say. Please!" Eudora screamed at her only child.

She was literally begging her. She didn't know what she would do without her, she couldn't go on without her. Her grandchildren needed her and in all honesty Tiana would be a damn selfish fool to leave them, didn't she know if she left it would break their hearts?! They loved her and wanted her around for a long time, didn't she know that?!

Tiana smiled at her mother telling her all she needed to know through her smile. Eudora only shook her head, she prayed to the Lord that everything would be fine. She wanted Tiana to live and hoped that she would live, but deep down Eudora that Tiana's action would cost her life, she was asking the Lord for Tiana to return to Heaven safely, where she belonged.

Tiana looked away from her mother with a sad smile knowing she was praying for her. She couldn't of asked for a better family or life now she could only wish for them to forgive her, she didn't mean for it to get this far, but now that it has well..

"I will die protecting this family!" Tiana said with all the confidence in the world.

When Rafael wasn't looking Tiana pushed him back causing him to fall back, she quickly retrieved his gun and pointed it at the men. Rafael was a bit peeved that he was bested by this woman again but just shook at off as he got up. Once he laid eyes on Tiana and the men he just laughed. He knew Tiana was going to die, it didn't matter to him if had his gun. She would never win. No matter what.

Tiana felt the weight of the gun and couldn't handle it, she knew this was it for her, but for some reason it didn't seem like the gun would have any effect of keeping her family safe. She was so confident in her decision to lay down her life for her family but now it just seemed wrong.

"Mama!" James screamed as his mother held the gun tightly, things were about to change drastically. Tiana looked over at James her body shaking, her forehead beaded with sweat. Was she really about to do this? Her throat ran dry all of a sudden and everything became blurry. She heard the cries of her family but it was started become distant and faint, only one voice stood out and it was the man she wanted to kill most of all.

Rafael.

"Tiana c'mon put the gun down and just do as we say. It will be alright" he purred his voice dripping with venom.

Tiana could feel his hand slinking around her waist then tightening the grip on her waist, one hand sliding up her soft arm, reaching for the gun that was aimed at the men. Tiana felt the world drifting as if she was flying away, unable to control if her body would be would be earth-bound or heaven-bound, but the minute she felt his hand on her waist and arm she snapped back and with haste tried to turn the tables.

"No" she whispered, it was barely audible to Rafael, but he was still able to pick it up.

"Fine. Looks like I have to it the hard way" he said frustrated, he hated when woman decided to act on their own and listen to commands.

Before she could react Rafael shifted his hand from her waist with great speed. He grabbed a hold of her shoulder, pinched her and pressed down on it added pressure to it. He kept doing so until saw fading from consciousness. He smirked as he saw her go down, he heard her heavenly voice mutter one thing before she went completely out,

"I will p-protect...my f-family"

Rafael only smirked, 'Foolish woman, you're out whose going to protect them now?'

He told them no one was going to leave the boat.
