Chapter 9: The Phone Call

Jordan's P.O.V

I could just lay there, clutching my throbbing cheek as blood from a nosebleed poured across my hand. But that wasn't the bad feeling I had. It was that feeling where you know you did something wrong and something horrible would come out of it, that feeling. I knew that I needed to find Lyra soon, but I also needed to let her blow off steam.

Maybe I could make her happier when she got back home? I thought. So, I grabbed my laptop and went onto the website for Erica's orphanage.

-15 minutes later-

I sent the last email in my conversation with Jessica about Erica's adoption. Jessica had mailed the certificates and adoption papers to my condo, and I had mailed her my signature. Erica was now officially Lyra's and my adopted child.

Lyra still wasn't back. I was getting a bit nervous, since Minecon was almost here and it was around midnight. Looking outside, I noticed that the rain was pouring down hard. I hoped Lyra was okay.

Lyra's P.O.V

I woke up in a small room, with a glass wall and no windows. I felt nauseous and drowsy, but most of all terrified.

"Good morning, sunshine," a female's voice said from the other side. She laughed.

Something about the girl was extremely familiar, although I knew that we'd never met before. But I could tell that she was the one who took me away.

Clone. So that's what I was. All those years spent being hidden from the world, and it was because of this. I wasn't like other people. But I knew I was a person. Just...different.

I felt a painful shock run up my arm and looked at my wrist, seeing a tight black bracelet thing on it. Electrical bracelet, probably.

"Stop ignoring me," the girl demanded. I glared at her, and she just smirked. "I have information that you'll surely do anything to hear. And I mean anything."

I was still on the cold floor, knees pulled up to my chest as I rocked back and forth. I was claustrophobic, and the room made me feel like the walls were closing in on me. The girl just laughed. "So, since I'm exactly like you, I know exactly how to torture you. Starting with calling my ex-boyfriend," she said as I held my knees closer.

The door opened and a beefy man came in and grabbed me. He carried me out of that tiny room, which actually helped me, and brought me into a larger room. The girl came in and bound my wrists to the wall with chains. I hung my head down and let my bangs fall in my face.

The girl took out her phone and I saw her dial a very familiar number.

Jordan's P.O.V

I paced back and forth, since it had been another hour and Lyra still wasn't back. I was getting really nervous.

My phone rang.

I sprinted toward it and answered without reading the number, hopes up so high that it was Lyra.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hi, Jordan," a voice like Lyra's replied.

I let out a sigh of relief, knowing she was okay.

I got a request to do video chat, and, a but confused, accepted. The picture that I was shown nearly made me faint.

Valerie Anderson.

"You." I growled.

She giggled. "Me."

I heard a voice like hers in the background. "Stop it! Don't do anything to him!" it cried.

"Lyra?" I asked, pressing the phone closer to me.

Valerie pressed a button and Lyra's face came up. She looked terrified, hanging on the wall by chains. "Jordan, hang up and never answer this phone call again. I don't want her to get you too," she begged, struggling to get free.

"I think you both need to hear something," Valerie interrupted, turning the camera back to her face. She looked over to Lyra, an evil grin on her twisted face. "Lyra, you might want to know who-oh, wait, I should explain it to Jordy first." I winced, hating the nickname she came up for me three years ago.

"Lyra's not normal," Valerie started, that stupid grin not leaving her face. "She's a freak."

I narrowed my eyes. "She's different, not a freak. You're the freak, Valerie."

Valerie flicked a bit of hair out of her face. "Then you really need to know this: Lyra is a clone."

To Be Continued
