The moment Clarisse opened her eyes, she found herself inside a moving car. It was still dark outside, and she couldn't see much. But that wasn't the scariest part. She quickly realized her wrists and ankles were bound with tape, and her mouth was covered too. Panic set in as she understood the gravity of the situation.
"Oh, looks like you're up," said a woman's voice. Clarisse turned her head slightly and saw a woman with brown eyes peering at her through the rearview mirror.
"Mmmph!" she screamed, trying to convey, "What the heck are you planning to do with me?!" Fear was written all over her face, and Maya, the Muse of Comedy, couldn't help but grin.
"I'm just here to save you from the mess you're in, duh!" Maya replied in a jolly tone.
Confusion and fear swirled in Clarisse's eyes. Save her? How? Why?
