"Stop squirming!" I was shoved into a box and the lid was snapped shut. I banged on the lid with my fist as hard as I could.
"Let me out!" I shouted.
"Shut it!" I felt the box move and I sighed. I had no idea what was going on. I went outside as soon as I heard something that sounded like thunder then the next thing I knew someone grabbed me and dragged me away from Axel's house then shoves me into box. What did they even want with me?
The box jerked and I hit one of the walls.
"Watch where you're going!" Someone shouted.
"No you watch where you're going! In here is something that'll get rid of those angels."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Cause our little spy said so. Now come on, we need to get him to the general." Angels? What did they mean by angels? And how was I going to get rid of them? I was so confused.

It took awhile before the box stopped moving. I tried listening to maybe understand what was happening but it was eerily quiet. Then the box opened and I was dumped out. I quickly tried to get up but someone grabbed the back of my neck and held me down. I yelped then somebody chuckled darkly.
"See we got him just like you asked."
"I'm still not sure why you want this scrawny brat. What's so special about him?"
"This scrawny brat is the head Generals kid, since we have him them we can get them to back off so we can carry out this plan."
"How the hell is he Michael's kid? He looks like a toothpick." The guy laughed.
"Yes that might be true but they look so much alike Luke. But yes this is Michael's kid I'm surprised that he let his mother keep him. They knew this day was coming." I tried to move but the guy just tightened his grip. It quickly got really hard to breathe.
"So where are we keeping the kid?"
"Keep him in the dungeon make sure that there are guard outside of his cell."
"Why? He couldn't even get out of a wooden box, how's he going to get out of a cell?"
"Just do what I say Luke! I can't make any mistakes."
"Ok ok geez." I was forced up and the guy let go of my neck. I started coughing as another guy grabbed my arm and dragged me off somewhere. I was shoved into a dark cell.
"You two, keep a close eye on him. We can't afford to let him get loose or for anyone to take him."
"Yes sir." The guy walked off and two other guys stood in front of my cell. Michael's kid? Who the heck was Michael and why were these guys using me against him? I didn't even recognize the name. I sighed then went to sit down on a pallet in the corner of the room when I realized something. I still had my phone. Those idiots didn't take it from me, and I still had signal. I sighed in relief then quickly texted Axel.
Lalna- hey Axel, I need help. Some idiots kidnapped me and I have no idea what to do
Axel- okay just calm down do you know where you are at?
Lalna- no, not really. They put me in a box and I couldn't see where we were
Axel- Okay we'll figure it out just stay calm got it
Lalna- ok, they said they were going to use me against someone named Michael. Do you know who that is?
Axel- no but I'm sure that Astrid does
Lalna- ok, are you guys ok?
Axel- we're fine Astrid explained everything that was going on but Ridge is freaking out I'll get him calm down so we can go home.
Lalna- tell him I'm ok, I just need to find a way out of here
Axel- okay just be careful
Lalna- I will
I heard a door open and I shoved my phone in my pocket. That one guy was back and he smirked.
"Michael wants to see him."
