Nebula stared at the dark gray stone wall. She was still in her nest when Swift~jem can in. "Nebula you should be getting ready for school." Swift-jem Said. "I don't want to go!" Nebula complained. Swift~jem was taken by surprise. Nebula almost never complained about, well, anything! "What's wrong Nebula?" Swift~jem sat next to her. "First mom now Alex.."
   "Well, your dad is still alive! You should be happy for that shouldn't you?" Nebula was happy that her dad survived. She just missed the others who didn't. "Do you really want to skip school today?" Swift~jem Asked. Nebula was very upset. But she didn't want to miss any extra learning.

"Okay.." What a disappointment...

Nebula opened her eyes a little wider. Different?  How? "Never mind! Just, tell where Alex is." "He is gone. He left." Nebula said plainly. Nebula turned around and bounded away. "Gone? Where is he! Nebula?!" Liza called. But by the time she finished her sentence, Nebula already was out of sight...
