"Where are the children? Let them go," I said warily as I gazed at the leader.
"The children have been released," replied the leader in a deep voice.
I turned around to see a group of children in tiny floral skirts being taken off the cruise.
"No! Our records clearly show that there are a total of 27 infants and young children under the age of 14. But there are only 26 now. One more child is missing." Beneath the cruise, Officer Samuel Cabot shouted as the number of children did not add up. The eldest child, a 14-year-old girl, was missing.
"If she's not here, she's probably hiding. If she refuses to leave, it is what it is." The leader sneered, showing no intention of assisting in the search.
"Find the little girl and bring her back safely!" the captain shouted to Zion and Eason below the cruise ship.
"Okay." Zion nodded.
All of us were herded into the cabin by the Rebels. "Now that everyone's here, the game begins."
