Chapter 2

Kidnapped.

Zakariya got kidnapped.

How in the world could this happen? Zakariyah was blind! He can not see! how in the world could such a thing happen? Dad told me that the police looked all over town and still could not find him? How? How?! Is this possible? I am a terrible sister! I should have been more careful about him. After saying that I bursted into a fit of tears again. A few minutes later someone knocked on my door. "Come in," I replied. There was a pause and then my older brother came in carrying three items in his hand. One looked like a pearl necklace, the other was a very strange looking hat and the third was an old map that you will usually see in treasure hunts. He slowly came in, sat on my bed and placed the items on my bed. He did not say a word but just stared at my bed sheets as if they were the most awesome things that he had ever seen in his whole life.

After about 2 minutes of silence, he started talking but his words were very hesitant . "Zainab... you know when our grandparents died 13 years ago? What am I saying, you most probably do not remember since you were 1 year old but when they were in their deathbed they gave me these three things; A Pearl Necklace, A Hat, and A Map. You were supposed to find about this when you turned 10 years old but mum and dad forced me to keep it a secret until now" Arsalan Bhai (my older brother) told me.

"Ok so why are you telling me this now? I mean how does this have any connection with Zakariyah and everything that is happening right now?" I asked my brother hoping to get a proper answer since usually i did not get one since my brother was very... secretive. This is probably one of the only times he has talked to me properly if you know what I mean.

"I am telling you this now," He started than paused for a few seconds. "Because I feel the things that were given to us have everything to do with Zakariya getting kidnapped. Think about it Zainab. The police in Robotropolis are the best in the whole entire world? If Zakariya was anywhere other than the place I am thinking of they would have found him I am absolutely sure of it."

"Ok then," I replied.

My brother came towards me and then said, " Here, wear this necklace. It was for you. You are the rightful owner of this and please do not lose this and please, please never ever take this off." I nodded my head in understanding and he pulled my hair aside gently and put the necklace on.

"Zainab, I think I know where Zakariyah is and we are going to go there tomorrow. So pack a bag with all your necessities because we are leaving tomorrow, before sunrise."

I smiled at my brother and then he got up and left my bedroom leaving me to quickly pack my things, and then go to sleep knowing I won't get that much sleep before I am woken up to go and find my brother.

My Zakariyah.
