I collapsed on the ground not believing my eyes. "No…No they didn't leave me, they must have…Gotten away from the storm! Ya, that's it! They got the ship away from the storm. They will come back for me, I will wait here until they do." and so I waited. I watched as people started showing back up and cleaning up the storms mess. The ships in the harbor were sunk, houses were ripped apart, and debris was everywhere. The sun was close to setting, I was cold and hungry. I haven't left the spot I collapsed in, I've been waiting here for them. But at this point my hope was washing away. Just like the storm almost did to me. I felt my heart shatter and tears started to roll down my face. "I don't want to cry!" I said as a big sob escaped me.

But I wasn't crying for long when I heard men shouting.

"If you find that girl bring her to me!" I recognized the voice of the marine commander.

"Oh shit!" I got up with wobble legs and sprinted to the tree outline. Once I reached it I went behind one of the enormous trees. I watched the marines search around the harbor. "Why are they looking for me! Wouldn't they think me dead?" I saw one of the marines look up and look directly at me.

"Look over there! She's behind that tree!" The marine shouted and pointed at me.

"Get her! But I want her alive!" Yelled the commander. The men started running over to the tree line.

"Geez!" I turned and I ran farther into the forest. I ran and ran as fast as I could. I ran until I couldn't see my own hands in front of me. At that point I started walking very slowly, using my hands to guide me. I was breathing heavily and exhausted from the events that occurred. "Why? I just don't get it, why am I so important to them?" I sat down leaning against a tree. "I'm so tired of all this." I yawned and I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I knew it was morning.

"Ugh, another nightmare…" I stood up and stretched,"I hate that man…" My stomach growled,"and I am starving! I need to find something to eat." I started walking when I felt a cool breeze. "The ocean! it must be near here! Oh, I could eat fish!" I walked toward the breeze and eventually came across a beach. "Yes! I can get fish! But what about water?" I walked over to a stick lying on the ground and picked it up. "That will be a problem." I examined the stick,"It's not very sharp, maybe I could use a rock?" I looked around for a rock when I spotted something yellow out of the corner of my eye. I dropped the stick.

"Hey!" I started waving my hands in the air. The hatch to the yellow submarine opened up.

"We see you!" Yelled Shachi.

"You're alive!" Yelled Penguin.

"We are coming to shore!" Yelled Bepo. The submarine made it's way as close to the shore as it could get. The three of them jumped out and ran to me. I saw Law come out shortly.

"Kathren!" All three of them hugged me at once. "We thought we lost you forever!" They started crying.

"Why are you guys crying?" I asked.

"Because you are!" I touched my face and felt the wetness. I didn't even realize that I was crying. When I realized I was crying I started sobbing.

"Sob! I'm s-sorry, I-I don't mean to cry." They have let go of me and were all crying to, trying to wipe their faces.

"Kathren, why would you be crying?" Asked Law. He was standing in front of me.

"I thought you left me!" I covered my face with my hands and sobbed into my hands.

Law grasped my shoulders,"Kathren, I will never leave a crew member behind until I am certain they are dead. We had no proof that you were dead, so we were not going to leave, understand." I removed my hands from my face and was looking up at him, I nodded my head. He spoke softly,"Good, now let's get back in the ship before the marines get here. I would also like to know what happened to you." My stomach growled and I'm pretty sure my turned a bright red. "But first let's get you cleaned up and something to eat. Come on guys, let's go." Law turned around and headed to the ship.

"Yes Captain!" The other three said and headed after him. I stood there for a second before I headed after them.

"So that's what happened." I explained as we ate. I was all washed up and in some fresh clothes. I had just finished eating and felt the need for a very long nap.

"How did we not notice the hole there? Damn it…"

"Forget about the hole, she escaped from the marines! Even if the weather was bad they still would have some sort of guard." Shachi said.

"Why did you say we kidnapped you?" asked Penguin.

"It was the first thing that came to my mind!"

"I can't believe they believed that!" Penguin exclaimed, "Kathren, you are a genus!"

"I don't understand how you survived in that storm, no one should have survived that," said Law with a frown.

"Ya, how's that even possible?"Asked the other three.

"I don't know! It just happened, I had no control on what was going on!" They all looked at me with disbelief.

"I can't believe it. Kathren, do you have a power of some sort?" Law asked.

"Not that I'm aware of."

"Hmmm…..I think you do, you just haven't discovered it quite yet." Law examined me.

I sighed,"Look I really don't know."

"It is hard to determine with just this event. Have you ever in your life been through something really stressful and ended up experiencing something really…bizarre?"

I hesitated,"U-um, well.."

"Kathren, is there something you haven't told us?"

I glanced around at everyone and my eyes rested on Law's. "I…..yes… but I don't want to talk about him."

"HIm?" Law asked.

Realizing I said to much I stood in a panic. "I'm really tired right now, I think I will go to bed." I turned around and started walking out the room.

"We will continue talking, whether you like it or not." It was the last thing I heard Law say as I exited the room.
