Anna's POV

Blinking rapidly against the light streaming in, I sat up in my bunk. Dust particles sparkled in the sun and I realised I had slept much longer than usual. Frowning, I glanced around but Emma, known as Ninja to everyone else, was nowhere to be seen.

I hopped off the top bunk and landed lightly on the ground. My eyes caught sight of a white paper envelope lying on Emma's pillow.

Emma had never left without telling me before so I was worried.

Picking it up, I realised it was addressed to Henry. My worry for Emma increased and a small gasp escaped.

I wanted desperately to read the letter but my moral compass stopped me. What did she want to tell Henry? Nothing she could say could make this situation better. Except...

She wouldn't try and rescue Joey, would she?
