Anna woke up in a dark place. She could barely make out walls that were very close together. She reached out her hand and felt them. They were cold and hard. "Where am I?" Anna said aloud. She slowly got to her feet and held a mini-star in her hand to make some light. What Anna saw was unbelievable! There were bars behind her, and she realized she was in a cage of some sort. Then she remembered what had happened. The Tutheans attacked Lunkealara and she was captured. She looked through the bars and saw other prisoners too. Is my mom here? She looked in the other cages and didn't see her mother anywhere. Some of the prisoners were asleep and unharmed, but others not so much. Some were bleeding and wounded, and others were already dead. Their skin was pale and white. Anna felt lucky that she was okay. Suddenly, a door opened, letting light flood in through all the cages, and blinding Anna.

"Stand in the name of Tuthea!" a deep voice said. Anna was already standing, but she stood straighter. She didn't want to end up like the others. Some people either struggled to stand or didn't at all. Anna's eyes adjusted to the light and she saw a tall, buff body. He had dark hair and pale orange skin, revealing he was a Tuthean. Anna looked down at her feet which were light purple, the color of a Kilaman.

"Stand!" He shouted again. More people stood, but others didn't. He walked up to a cage with a young boy in it. He had blonde hair. The boy's shirt was stained with blood, but he was breathing. His eyes were closed and he was laying down. The man pressed a button next to the cage and doors slid open in the back of it. Tutheans wearing black armor grabbed the boy by the arms and dragged him behind the doors. The doors closed, and the man kept walking. Anna was still looking at the empty cage. A high-pitched scream was heard from it, but then silence.

"Unless you want to be like our volunteer, I suggest you all STAND!!" The man kept walking from cage to cage, some of them pressing the button. Anna felt a bead of sweat rolling down her forehead when the man came to her cage. He stopped and looked her in the eye. "Anna. Come with me." Anna was scared as the bars in front of her disappeared. She followed him back to where he came in from, then down a long corridor. Two big oak doors came in sight. Anna dared not say anything because she didn't want to end up like the boy. The man opened the doors and said, "I found Anna, sir." 

"Oh thank you, Rune. I can't wait to see what I can do. " A chair behind a desk turned around and a short, skinny man was sitting in it. "Rune, leave." Rune left and Anna was alone with the skinny Tuthean. "I see you've come to our hands, Anna." Anna nodded but was unsure of what he meant. "So you're interested in other planets, yes?" Anna nodded.

"Yes, sir."                                                                                                                   

"So why don't I introduce you to planet Earth. Earth is a planet where a species called Humans occupy the land. This planet holds riches unknown to Tuthean and Kilamen, and I need you to bring them back to me."

"But, sir, I..." Anna was interrupted by a whirring noise from behind her. "AAAh!" A strong wind carried her up a tube she did not fit in. Anna was struggling to breathe and was sure her arm had broken from the squished area. Anna turned her head to see stars rushing past her. Is he sending me to Earth? Anna thought, "AAAAAAH!" Anna was thrown from the tube and hit the ground. Anna turned her head to see where she landed, but it hurt too much. She closed her eyes and slept there, hoping that this was all a silly dream.
