Chapter 111: Chapter 111: The Parents Again

Several of the warriors were busy in the main cave. Natalie and Zacar followed Zurian and Julia inside.

"Remember, " Zurian said. "He cannot see or hear us."

"All right. Where's my TC?"

He'd taken it and she would need it to answer the call. Maybe afterward she could casually slip it in her pocket.

"You do not need your primitive device. Simply speak."

Julia and Natalie made brief eye contact.

Julia fidgeted. "This reminds me of going to the principal's office," she mumbled.

She didn't want to do this. Didn't want to have to confront her feelings for her parents. If Jack would keep his word and keep her parents safe, she could pretend to herself they were merely too far away to have regular contact with.

"I want to see him on visual."

"Why?"

"I have to make sure my parents are all right. I haven't talked to them since my uncle hurt them."

Zurian nodded. Azagor set a silver gadget next to her and pressed a button.
