Cove's point of view
^^^Cove (15)^^^
We had just arrived home. No one else was here. We had to walk since we usually come home by the bus, but we left early. Grandma left me in charge of collect all the kids, but I couldn't find Red and Sailor. Red might be skipping, but I don't know about Sailor. So I'm a little worried.
"I'm going to go, okay? I have a date with Connor." River told me. She was all dressed up, so I let her leave. Didn't want to waste all that time. Connor, her boyfriend is thirteen. Everyone is against it, but I think their cute and she tells me they haven't had sex and I trust her.
I heard the door open. Soon after Dew came into view. My older sister's blonde hair was wild from walking a few miles from work back home.
"What's happening? Why did you want me to come home?" She asked as she put her hands on her hips.
"Grandma told me to get everyone home. She told me to call you once we were home." I told her as I fiddled with my fingers.
"Well where is she?" She asked as she started leaving the living room to go find her.
"Not home." I stated as she went into the kitchen. She came back when she heard a door open. Grandma came in with hopefully the rest of the kids. As soon as she dumped all the kids off to another kid, which ended with me holding South.
"Are we missing anyone?" She addressed the question to me since I was the one that was suppose to get all the children.
"Red and Sailor. River went on a date." I turned to Brook. "Where's Bay?"
"She's been caught. And what do you mean you don't know where Red and Sailor are? And I thought I told you everyone is suppose to stay in the house until I get back, that means no dates." She didn't even wait for my reply before she took out her phone. "River? Come home now. We have a problem and you might be in danger. They have your sister in a cage, do you want to be in the cage with her? Get here quickly." She ended one call and then immediately made another phone call. "Hello? Sailor? Sailor, come ho---" It sounded like she was startled by something, maybe on the other line? "You give her back now! Do you hear me! One misplaced hair and it'll be your head!" She started shouting making the babies start crying. She had the look of shock on her face as she pulled the phone away from her ear. "He hung up on me?" She looked shocked that anyone would do that, well considering she's a queen and all it doesn't surprise me.
"Who was it?" Dew asked as she switched hands with North.
"Some man has River. Let's hope he doesn't have Red as well. Damn that means we have to rescue two of my grandkids." She then started calling another person, more than likely Red. "Voice mail. Red! You get your ass home as soon as you get this. And no you aren't in any trouble. One of your sisters are and we need your help." She then put her phone back in her pocket. As she turned to us she stated. "Let's figure out how to save your sisters. But first I'm going to need to make a few phone calls to get back up, until then everyone stays inside and no one lets anyone in unless it is one of your sisters or I tell you they can, okay?"
She then turned walking into the kitchen as she put her phone to her ear saying something along the lines of. "I need that favor now."
