Wanting what he says to be true. That my parents and Charles were forced to leave against their will. "I have a letter for you, Lukas. Your father gave it to me. Right before...." "Before what? Stop being mysterious and tell me what you mean." I shake my hands while still in my cuffs. I am sure my output sucks right now. I'm so flustered. All my energy is seeping out, not up towards the wires. "Conviction ordered for them to be killed. Remember the people I told you about, who haven't forgotten what The Light is supposed to be? One of them, a man on Refuge One, was ordered to take them to the water with weights on their feet. Drown them in the Sound. That's what we do with all our deceased members. But this was going to be different. They were going to alive when they went into the water." I don't want to hear this. I shake my head, terrified of what comes next. My family is actually dead. Lucy's on a mission to find them, to ask them for help.
