Who's next?
*This chapter has yet to be edited*
A week later all the zodiacs were in the first apartment arguing over who has to get food. They were almost out of food and everyone was hungry.
"But whoever goes could easily get kidnapped," said Virgo.
"That's why no one wants to go," said Gemini.
"I went last time so it's between the nine of you," said Taurus.
"I'm the leader so I say I don't have to go," said Aries.
"You can't do that!" said Scorpio.
Aries snapped her fingers. "Just did."
"Okay so it's between Gemini, me, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces," said Cancer.
"So I'll put names in a hat," said Aquarius. Then Pisces helped her cut out eight pieces of paper and wrote the names on them. Then Aquarius put her hand in the hat and picked a piece of paper. Everyone held their breath. Then Aquarius opened the paper.
"Sagittarius." Sagittarius' eyes were wide.
"W-What do we need?" asked Sagittarius. Then Virgo gave her a list. She took the list with shaking hands and slowly walked over to the door.
"WAIT! I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!!!" screamed Capricorn. Then he took the list and ran out the door.
"CAP! No!" Then Sagittarius ran into the hallway but Capricorn was already gone.

Anne gave Pegasus and Libra a piece of bread and gave Leo a vanilla cake with icing and strawberries.
"OOH DESSERT!" screamed Leo.
"WHAT THE HECK?!? Why does he get dessert and we only get bread?" asked Libra.
"Because he's funny and you're not," said Anne.
"Hey, being kidnapped isn't so bad after all! Well it's still bad but not as bad as when we were kidnapped by Callie bear."
"Callie bear?" asked Anne.
"He gives everyone nicknames like that all the time," explained Libra.
"No one asked you," said Anne.
"I swear when I get out of here you'll be the first on my murder list," said Pegasus to Leo.
"Yay now I have another friend!" said Leo.
"Is he stupid or does he play dumb?" asked Pegasus.
"We honestly don't know," said Libra. "I think he just likes being annoying."
"Annoying? Me?" asked Leo with a dramatic gasp.
"Why are you doing this? What's the point of locking us up? You know we're the real zodiacs... So what?" asked Libra.
"Yes, you are the zodiacs. That's why I need to keep you all locked up. I'd explain why but I'd rather not," said Anne.
"Why can't you tell us?!? THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!!" said Leo.
"Why is she here then?" asked Libra.
"Because Pegasus knows too much. Naturally I'd kill her but I don't like blood or dead bodies," said Anne casually. Libra got ten times more scared of her. Then a man and a woman ran over to Anne.
"We found one," said the woman. Leo and Libra were holding their breath and were terrified that someone else got caught.
"Which one?" asked Anne.
"The Capricorn," replied the man.
"So where is he?" asked Anne. They man and woman looked at each other and slowly looked back at Anne.
"He got away," said the man quietly. Libra let out a sigh of relief. She was so glad her friends were safe. Leo started laughing.
"Haha losers! Wow you guys are pathetic! Capricorn isn't even that good at running away and he still got away from you two idiots. Wow you two must be really slow or really dumb," said Leo.
"Cap isn't that bad at running," said Libra.
"Please tell me Leo is the only crazy zodiac," said Pegasus.
"Then you obviously didn't get to know Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius, Scorpio or Pisces that well while you kidnapped us," said Libra. "Well, Pisces isn't that crazy she's more childish and silly but Aries, Gemini and Sag are a lot like Leo so you'd better hope they don't get kidnapped."

Capricorn returned to the apartment with lots of bags of food.
"You're home safe!" said Sagittarius running to give him a hug.
"Yeah," replied Capricorn hugging her back.
"Did you see anyone suspicious?" asked Cancer.
"Yeah I almost got kidnapped. But I'm here now!"
"WHAT?!?" asked Sagittarius.
"She was worried that you'd get kidnapped and it would be her fault," explained Virgo.
"We kept telling her that you chose to take her place but she's too stubborn!" said Aquarius.
"YES! He bought lots of chocolate!" said Aries already looking through the shopping bags.
"Wow Cap sure did get a lot of food," said Gemini.
"I'll cook something for lunch," said Taurus who was too hungry to wait for Capricorn to cook.
"I'll help," offered Virgo.
"I'm so bored here!" said Pisces.
"Then ask Scorpio if he wants to play a game or... Wait! Where's Scorpio?" asked Cancer. Everyone froze for a second.
"He didn't leave the apartment did he?" asked Taurus.
"OMG do you think they kidnapped him?" asked Pisces. Then Scorpio walked out of his room.
"Why are you all staring at me?" asked Scorpio.
"WE THOUGHT YOU WERE KIDNAPPED!!!" screamed Pisces while hugging him.
"I just took a nap because I was tired," said Scorpio. Then the zodiacs heard crying outside the apartment.
"Sounds like a little kid crying," said Gemini.
"I'll go see what it is," said Aquarius.
"Taurus and Virgo hurry up and cook so I can go back to my apartment," complained Aries.
Then Aquarius walked outside and over by the window to the first apartment there was a little kid crying.
"What's wrong?" asked Aquarius.
"I lost my teddy bear!" cried the little kid.
"It's alright. I'll help you find it."
"Okay I dropped it over near those bushes," said the little kid. Then him and Aquarius walked over to the bushes when a woman jumped out and grabbed Aquarius.
"HELP!" yelled Aquarius. Then the woman gave the boy ten dollars, put tape over Aquarius' mouth and walked over to the van where a man helped her shove Aquarius in the van.

The others in the apartment were eating Kraft dinner when they heard a scream.
"AQUA!" yelled Cancer. Then they all ran down the hallway and out side. They saw a white van in front of the building. Cancer ran for it but Capricorn and Taurus held him back.
"Let me go! I have to help her!" said Cancer.
"How?" asked Taurus.
"They keep multiple people in the back of those vans. Get inside quickly before they notice us," said Capricorn. Then they all ran back inside and went to the first apartment.
"They know where we live now!" said Aries.
"Not again!" complained Pisces.
"Pack your stuff they'll be back and we can't loose more people!" ordered Virgo.
"Aww but I don't like moving around all the time," said Gemini.
"No one does but you can stay if you want to be kidnapped," said Scorpio.
"When this is all over with I'll personally kill Anne myself," said Sagittarius.
"Me too," said Aries.
"But where do we go now?" asked Taurus.
"We have to find a new hotel," said Virgo. Then everyone went to their apartments to pack their stuff. Scorpio packed Cancer's stuff for him because he was too busy crying. Capricorn looked at the bag in his room that contained Libra's stuff. They put her bag in his room because he was the most responsible. Someone else would take Aquarius' stuff. He sighed and realized that they would keep coming until everyone was kidnapped and eventually they would have to carry around more bags full of stuff that belonged to a zodiac that was no longer there.
