It was the next morning and I was still shocked due to yesterday's events I thought it was just a dream to good to be true but it wasn't. I still haven't came up with something to tell my parent to take me to this island but hopefully something will come up soon. After eating breakfast I decided to some research about this island and any information about this children's home. All it said was how the home got bombed,but then remembered that I would travel back to time, somehow?

Time Skip to a couple hours
I got it! I came up with a plan! I'm not sure if this will work but I'll give it a try." Mom, dad." I started. "I... um was wondering, if maybe... possibly I could go to the island where Jacob went to. The one at Wales?" I mumbled. "What!?" They looked at me as if I were crazy. Oh no this isn't going to work! I thought. " Ye- yes I think it would be good for me to go visit this island because this is the only place that mainly reminds me of Jacob. I would like to go as if I'm saying a proper goodbye... you know, since we'll most likely never see him again." I stammered. Their faces were pure shock it kind of scared me not knowing how they were going to react."Why,so long after six years?Look Athena when your brother left it broke us all and I'm not too sure about taking you to the island where your brother just decided to leave us." My dad retorted. "Yeah but I want some answers! Like what if someone has seen him or heard about him. You guys just gave up!" I yelled. "Honey calm down, we want answers too and it's hard for all us but we can't just take you.Your father and I have work and school is starting soon.We just can't put our life on hold" My mom mentioned. I stormed off to my room and cried.

This was my only chance, I could've seen my brother again and get some answers. But did I give up? No! I remembered about all of my birthday money that I've saved and there was my answers. $2,250. I could buy my own ticket and go there my self if my parents aren't willing to take me. I searched boat tickets from Florida to Wales and they were $225. That still leaves me so much money. I was wondering if I should tell my parents or just run away, so that's what I decided to do. Run away! I bought the tickets and packed a bag. I didn't pack much all I packed was some clothes, shoes, money, and a picture of Jake, Grandpa and I when we were younger. I decided to leave the next morning after a goodnight sleep.

The Next Morning
I woke up earlier than usual before my parents woke up and left them a quick note explaining how I left to get some answers blah blah and that I love them. Now I was headed off to start this journey.

(Time skip to when she arrives to the island)

I arrived now at the island. It was so gloomy and it looked so sad here. On my to the hotel I passed a cemetery and it was pretty scary there were so many dead people it was honestly really sad. I don't know how to describe it but they didn't look dead, they obviously didn't look like how they show on tv. No this was different. They looked alive but when you looked into their eyes you could tell. There was nothing, just full of emptiness and sadness.As I passed that, I finally arrived at the hotel, there were hardly any people around just two guys playing a game of cards. "Excuse me? Is it possible to get a room here?" I asked a guy working by the bar. "Oh yes, come over here and I'll give you a room." The man replied. He gave me the key to my room and the minute I went inside I plopped down on the bed and fell asleep.
