On the run

A New Place

Robyn's POV
I can't even explain how happy I was to see Nicole. I nearly lost her and it was all my fault. When the fake Nicole came in I thought they had wiped her mind or something. I was devastated. All I could do was cry and I never cry. Ever since my parents died I would always hide my emotions. I spent most of my time either with Nicole or by myself as I was in foster care with 6 other kids.

No one really knew where I went or what I did. I built myself up so that pain wouldn't hurt me or effect me so I asked my foster mum if I could take karate classes when I was little. That helped keep my mind off things. Punching and kicking things helped a lot.

But when Nicole went it was like all my emotions came out all at once. Tristan was really nice though, he didn't think I was a baby at all, I hope we are friends when we get back. Now we are on our way to some place. Thousands of miles away from home. Great. We were all still hand cuffed together so there was no way I could cut through it with my pen knife this time. We had been on the plane now for about 2 hours but it felt like 2 days.

I only realised then how hungry and thirsty I was. "Hey do you guys have any water we can have so we don't die of dehydration?" I say to the men flying the plane. "You would stop talking now if you know what's good for you," he snaps back. "Oh sorry," I say sarcastically so they can't hear. "So does anyone have any clue who SOFCC is?" Alfie asks quietly. "Nope, all I know is they kidnapped us for a reason," I say. "Well it better be a good reason," Tristan says angrily. I nod at him in agreement.

I then look at Nicole who looks shocked and scared. "Hey are you ok what did they do to you,?" I ask her, tapping her leg. She instantly shivers and pulls away from me shaking her head. Sorry, I'm just....," she trailed off with tears still streaming down her face in shock of what happened to her. "I try to wrench my hands out of the cuffs to hug her but they are shut tight. "It's ok, I promised I would get us out of this and that is what I'm going to do!" I say determinedly.

Tristan's POV

I look at Robyn with admiration. I didn't realise how brave she is. Seeing her crying so much before seems unbelievable. Maybe she's not normally like that. I feel so sorry for Nicole, for what she had to go through. We need to work together if we want to get out of this. I feel the plane descending and hit the ground with a violent thud. We must be here. The door of the plane is flung open and a man pulls us out and throws us to the ground. He says wickedly "If you know what's good for you, you won't try and escape." We all glared at him as he climbed back in the plane and it zoomed out of sight.

Robyn's POV

I look around and take in our surroundings. We are in a wood. A wood with gigantic trees towering over everything. All you could see for miles were trees trees and trees. I had a feeling this wood wasn't going to be like the wood from Snow White or something.

The wave of dehydration hit me and I felt my legs give way. Everything went blurry for a while but eventually went back to normal. "Woah are you ok," Tristan said looking concerned. "I think so," I stutter. I looked over to Nicole she had her head in her hands crossed legged on the ground. The floor was hard and dusty. "Can't wait to sleep here tonight," I thought to myself.

Once I felt like I could stand up again I said "Right, the first thing we need to do is find water so we don't die tonight." "Good idea," Tristan says. "Maybe you two should go and find water I'll stay here with Nicole." Alfie smiles. "Are you sure I could always stay..." but he cut me off "No I'll stay with her," he says. "Ok looks like it's you and me," I say to Tristan and he nods grinning. "Let the exploring begin!" I say enthusiastically.
