Shirley's grasp, Luna's fragile form,
Dragged to a room, where shadows swarm.
Tied and helpless, fully conscious still,
Luna's mind racing, with fearful thrill.
Caleb's remorse, a belated sigh,
Helpless against Shirley's cunning guise.
Family ties bound him, a reluctant pawn,
Shirley's father, a powerful, ruthless dawn.
A millionaire's daughter, with secrets untold,
Shirley's father, with ambitions cold.
He aided Shirley, in kidnapping's snare,
Luna's fate sealed, without a care.
The face mask removed, a shocking sight,
"How is she still alive?" his conscience took flight.
"NO! This can't be true!" his words did cry,
"But I...!" Guilt's sting, his soul did deny.
He asked Shirley, with a trembling voice,
"Where you met Luna?" A wicked, cunning choice.
"Send her away," Shirley's voice did command,
"Father, hide her, from the world's hand."
A space mission looming, Mars the goal,
Personal reasons drove him, to make it whole.
No volunteers stepped forth, fear in their hearts,
Death's unknown, a risk that tore them apart.
A sinister plan struck his twisted mind,
Luna, a pawn, to leave the world behind.
In the spaceship, she lay conscious still,
A journey to Mars, her fate to fulfill.
The stars whizzed by, like diamonds bright,
Luna's thoughts astray, in the dark of night.
How did she end here? Fear and despair,
Mixed with determination, to survive and share.
Luna's Journey continues!...
