In a post-apocalyptic flooded world, the last remaining humans live on large Navy aircraft carriers huddled together forming a city. The richest people enslaved and oppressed the rest of the masses to maintain total control and power.

THAT NIGHT, Ana walked out of her room by herself and went to Amaia's door.
Ana opened the door, looked inside the room and saw Amaia sitting against the wall.
Amaia turned her head and looked at Ana curiously.
Ana stepped inside the room leaving the door slightly open and said—
—"¿Qué le diste para que lo hiciera?" (What'd you give her so she'd do it?)
"¿No deberías estar preocupada en trayendo a mi hermana aquí?" (Shouldn't your concern be getting my sister back here?)
"¿Qué le diste?" (What did you give her?)
"¿Por qué no le preguntas tú misma?" (Why don't you go ask her yourself?)
"We both know that she wouldn't tell me."
"And you think that I will?"
"No. Not really. But I thought I'd give it a shot anyway, seeing as how I was wrong about you once before."
Amaia raised her eyebrow surprised that Ana said that.
Ana had a deadpan expression on her face and waited indifferently for Amaia's response.
Amaia scoffed and stood up and said—
—"De acuerdo, le dije que tenía información sobre dónde se esconden sus padres." (All right, I told her I had info about where her parents are hiding.)
Ana gave Amaia a questioning look asking her to go more in depth about it.
Amaia said—
—"Sus padres la usaron para robarme a mí, a mis padres y a otras personas en nuestra casa una vez. Sus padres intentaron incriminar a alguien con una pistola y después de eso, sus padres la abandonaron y desaparecieron. Mi familia y yo fuimos expulsados del Norte y mis padres han estado buscando encontrarlos y capturarlos desde entonces. Le dije que le diría dónde podía encontrar a sus padres si aceptaba mis términos." (Her parents used her to rob me and my parents and other people at our house one time. Her parents tried to frame someone for it with a gun and after that, her parents abandoned her and disappeared. Me and my family were kicked out of the North and my parents have been looking to find and capture them ever since. I told her that I would tell her where she could find her parents if she agreed to my terms.)
"¿Qué términos?" (What terms?)
"You'll have better luck asking her that. Now go get some sleep, you have a lot of work to do."
Amaia started walking back to her spot where she sleeps and then Ana said—
—"Wait, one last question. What else do you know about her parents?"
Amaia had her back turned to Ana and smiled because Ana took the bait that she subtly tossed her.
Amaia quickly removed her smile and turned and faced Ana and said—
