KARINA'S POV

Me and my sister, Sam, live a very posh life. all we do is study because our parents want us to go to an Ivy League school like Harvard or Yale. But, when we aren't studying, we secretly do other activities. I dance in my free time and do competitive dance. Only Sam knows about my dancing. Also, I am an expert on guitar. I have been playing since I was five years old.

And Sam... Sam is a very strong girl. She knows just about every form of martial arts in the book. She'll take you down with her hands tied behind her back if she was very vicious. She is also a very good singer. She can do from F1 to C6 without her voice cracking. Well, our parents are at some posh meeting whatever that is... I grabbed my guitar that was hiding under the floorboards. "What song should we sing, Sam?" I asked

"Hmm..." I just had to let Sam ponder, "How about 'I Won't Give Up' by Jason Mraz?"

"Sure!" I cheered, "I just learned the guitar part and would love to hear some vocals. Let's get started!" I tuned my guitar as Sam sat on my bed. Sam pressed the record button on our camera. I gave her the intro and she started on cue. And let me tell you, her voice lit up the entire room.

"When I look into your eyes, it's like watching the night sky or a beautiful sunrise. There's so much they hold. And just like the old stars, I see that you've come so far to be right where you are. How old is your soul?"

Then I came in and harmonized sized perfectly for the chorus. "I won't give up on us even if the skies get rough. I'm giving you all my love, I'm still looking up," I only do the harmonies. Sam does the rest because I can't sing as well. I let her continue as I strum.

"And when you're needing your space to do some navigating. I'll be here patiently waiting to see what you find. Cause even the stars they burn some even fall to the earth. We've got a lot to learn. God knows we're worth it. No I won't give up."

My favorite part to harmonize is the one coming up because it has a beautiful message and I love the rhythm. "I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily. I'm here to stay and make the difference I can make. Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts we've got. Yeah, we we got a lot at stake. And in the end you're still my friend at least we did intend for us to work. We didn't break, we didn't burn. We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in. I've had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am. I won't give up on us even if the skies get rough. I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up, still looking up."

We divided parts and I smiled as I played (A/N Karina's part is in parenthesis)

"I won't give up on us (no, I'm not giving up)

God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)

We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)

God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)."

Now for Sam to finish it off, "I won't give up on us even if the skies get rough. I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up."

I pressed the stop button after we said goodbye. I can't believe we've recorded an awesome cover! I uploaded it to our YouTube and Sam's Twitter. "Great job, Karina!" Sam praised.

"Thanks," I replied, "What do you want to do?" I ran for my purse because I really wanted to go out. Yes, my parents are at the posh meeting that won't get out for another 6 hours.

SAM'S POV

Karina and I did our cover and we were wondering what we should do. "How about we go to the mall?" Karina suggested after fifteen minutes of thinking.

"Great idea!" I cheered, "I'll start the car." I ran to the car and got it started. Karina hopped in a few moments later and we were off. We shopped until we dropped at our local mall. Four hours! We went home and dropped the car off. Karina was hungry so we got some ice cream. I got mint chocolate chip and she got rocky road. We went home after 20 minutes and we saw a strange van. We ran for our lives, but Karina couldn't keep up. A guy came and took her, gagged her, blindfolded her, tied her, and knocked her out.

I could still hear her cries as they haunted my head. "Sam! Help me!" I tried to help but she was gone. Oh, great. My sister got kidnapped.
