Hey readers just to let you all know, in this story Petra is 27 and Andrew is 28.

-----------------------------

*Petra’s P.O.V.*

Peter was leaning up against his desk with his arms crossed. A sinister smirk was plastered on his face. He looked between Andrew and I. I stood up straight and narrowed my eyes.

"Well, now I have a very special mission for you two, and that niece of mine." Peter hissed. "You're the lucky volunteers for a very important scientific breakthrough."

"Oh, and what would that mission be, Peter?” Andrew asked.

Peter’s eyes grew darker. He pushed himself off of his desk and walked up to us. I crossed my arms and frowned. I saw Andrew shift himself closer to me. A stern look was on his face.

“I’m glad you asked that little brother,” Peter replied. "It's a chance to travel to another world."

“Another world; I don’t understand Peter.”

“I say he has lost his mind,” I spoke up.

"Careful, Petra. I don't like people who say things like that about me. In any case, your participation is ordered."

“You can’t make us; we didn’t sign up for experiments,” Andrew argued frustratedly.

"Well, if you don't, I'll take your ranks. And if that doesn't work, I'll have my people take your precious daughter away."

I shifted in my spot. I felt myself becoming angry towards Peter. I looked at Andrew, and a stone-hard expression was on his face. Nobody threatens his daughter and gets away with it.

"So what do you say, dear brother?" Peter sneered.

"Fine, but only I will go," Andrew growled. "My daughter and Petra will stay here."

"Nope, I don't think so. All three of you are going. Besides, it will be like a fun family vacation."

Peter started to head towards the door. He stopped and looked at us. I sighed as I reached up to rub my forehead. This was gonna be one hell of a trip. Andrew gently grasped my elbow.

"Go get Emily, Pet." He said quietly. "Peter wasn't joking about hurting her."

I nodded and walked past Peter. He smiled as I sent him a glare. I could feel Andrew watching me as I walked off.

*Emily’s P.O.V.*

I was sitting beside my auntie Val when my mother walked in. I jumped up, ready to hug her, but the look on her face stopped me. I tilted my head as she walked around, gathering some of our stuff. It was all clothes and some of my puzzle toys.

"Mother, what's going on?" I asked. "Why are you gathering our clothes and my puzzles?"

"We have some orders from the Hegemon." She replied. "We are going to be part of a new experiment that some scientists put together."

"Experiment, what kind of experiment?" Aunt Val asked.

"I'm not entirely sure, Val. All I know is we will probably be gone for a while."

My aunt frowned, as my mother picked me up. A look of concern flashed across her face. I buried my head into her neck. My aunt stood up, looking unhappy.

"Where is he sending you?" Aunt Val asked.

"I really don't know, Val." My mother replied sadly. "And I don't think you should know; he could hurt you if you do."
