Drake closed his eyes settling down for the night. Lacey was curled up beside him, her head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around his older sister and held her in his arms warm and safe and together. That was all that mattered. He'd only just about fallen asleep in the stables outside the slave house when the door was thrown open. The boom made him jump. The lights dazzled him when he opened his eyes.
"Get up! You've got two days left. Time to go."
Lacey blinked at the men. She only had to spot the rope before she knew what was happening and she was on her hooves instantly.
"No! Nono! He's too young, you can't do this!!"
She blocked their way to him giving him time to gather himself. The crack of the whip made her scream and he lunged for it in a furious animalistic rage.
The Rope around his neck brought him staggering and stumbling back.
"No! Drake! No!"
Drake was being dragged away struggling. He looked over his shoulder where his sister was being restrained in the same way, forced to the ground and pinned down. Her blue eyes were horrified and finally she covered her face and sobbed.
"Lace..."

They passed through the aquarium. A hard thud against the tank brought his attention to Jason. The Merman flailed in the water and slammed his palms against the glass then swam up and down in panic stricken horror. His friend was being taken away from him. The tug he gave caught the vampires off guard and he managed to move to the glass. He pressed his hands against the glass and his eyes met those of his friend. They were fierce and angry and his tail flicked rapidly in the water showing his distress. Drake's eyes filled with tears.
~Look after her.~
~I'll come and find you! I promise! I will!~
Drake lay his head against the glass. One of his teardrops hit the ground with a thud, turning solid. He leaned in to pick it up but before he could he was yanked back and away from the tank. Jason beat his tail against the glass again and again as he was pulled through the door...
~~~
Drake was put in a single room with no bed... He didn't sleep. He didn't eat. He wouldn't until he found his friends again. This was a hunger strike. But... he didn't stay awake for too long. Emotional distress had drained him. He'd been stripped of his family... He'd not even seen Eve. She wouldn't even know...
