Chapter 2

Star and Miral woke up and saw themselves in a cage in a dark room. They heard footsteps approaching and people taking. Mona and Megan came in.
Mona said, "Good morning. How are you? Hungry? Comfy?"
Megan continued, "Pathetic?"
Miral shouted, "Let us out of here now!"
Mona said, "Temper, temper child. I bet this is better than living in a dump" Miral looked angrily at her with her shiny blue eyes.
Star said, "Please let us out we can't stay here."
Megan said, "Aw look who decided too speak up." Miral looked at Megan.
Miral yelled, "Nobody asked you!"
Mona said, "You shall talk to my daughter in a respectful tone young lady."
Miral said, "Yeah right." Star started kicking the bars of the cage.
Megan said, "Kick as you wish but you will hurt yourself only."
"The only thing that hurts is our ears from you blabbing!" shouted Miral.
Meanwhile at home things weren't so juicy either.
Solar said, "Oh, no this isn't happening Danny go find your sisters."
"I'm on it dad," said Danny as he headed to the door.
"I knew this was a bad idea," thought Solar.
"Dad, maybe they went to Mona's house, unwillingly of course!" shouted Moon. Solar stood up and looked at Moon. He wore an old sweatshirt he had and headed to the door.
"Wait dad," shouted Duane "We can't stay alone, what if Mona didn't take them and then she came to do something to us?" Samantha looked sarcastically at Duane.
"Danny will come back in a few minutes, until then you should stay here with Samantha in charge. Listen to her and I'll be back after a while. Okay?" said Solar. Sam laughed nervously. Moon lied down to the cold surface looking down.
Sam said, "We'll be fine dad you go fine our sisters." Solar smiled.
"I knew I could count on you," said Solar. He kissed Sam on her head and went out.
After a while Danny came, he asked, "Did you find them yet?" The four of them looked at him.
"Since when do you care about us?" questioned Duane.
"What does that mean?" asked Danny.
Sam said, "Nothing, just nothing." Then she looked down to the floor. Danny shook his head with a pathetic look on his face.
"Where's dad?" asked Danny.
Moon said, "He went to Mona's house to find them."
"It's getting late get some sleep," said Danny.
Duane yelled, "I don't wanna go to sleep, I'm waiting for dad."
Danny sighed and shouted, "Go to sleep Duane!"
"I don't want to!" exclaimed Duane.
"Just go to sleep Duane," said Sam. Duane stood up and looked at Danny and Sam. He looked at them pathetically.
Duane said, "You don't even care about dad, or Miral." he looked at Sun and continued, "Or Star, you only care about yourselves," he shouted, "You're selfish these are your sisters and your dad, and you don't seem to care a single bit...."
Danny interrupted, "Do you think we can do something and we don't want to, this isn't about us, it isn't about anyone, it's about Miral and Star and dad coming back safely. If you stay up will that help them come back? Is that what you think?"
Duane said, "Just forget it. I don't wanna talk now." He wore Danny's old jacket and went out.
Danny followed him and yelled, "Duane, come here right now!" Duane looked at him then he turned his back. Danny followed him, but Duane was already gone.
"What have I done?" whispered Danny. He fell on his knees and hands and looked down.



Oh no, double trouble. Duane, Star, Miral and Solar all gone. Will they be able to find them? Is Duane coming back. Who knows?
