We piled ourselves into the white van. It felt like one of those child abducter vans, like in the movies. I was scared, not sure what to expect. After a few seconds, one of the masked figures puled out a syringe and injected it into my arm. It stung, then everything went black.

                                                                              ______

                                                                                SKY

They took who I cared for most. Xena sat beside me in the van, but as soon as she was settled they stuck us with needles and we were gone.

                                                                              BLAIZE

Sky and Xena got into the car without hesitation. I looked over at Morgan for reassurance, but he wasn't paying attention to me. Instead, he had a determined look in his eye, and was staring at the place where the projections of our siblings were. I admired him, though I hated to admit it. I got in the van. Beside me I felt a lump of flesh and clothes, which I assumed was one of the girls. Then I felt cold metal on the lumps tiny wrist.

   I felt a wolf press into my hand. Sky's charm bracelet. I felt around until I touched her hair, then pulled her head into my lap. I heard someone crumple next to me. Soft hair gently tickled my skin. Xena. I pulled her head next to Sky's so that her legs wouldn't be smashed against the wall of the van. Why did they take us? It was really quiet. I couldn't even hear the engine. The only sound I could hear was Sky and Xena's ragged breathing.

   I felt a pinch in my shoulder, and I passed out.

                                                                            MORGAN

I followed Blaize into the van. No sooner had I gotten in to the van, then I felt a burst of pain in my jaw and I was out cold.
