Father will want an update.

I grab my phone from where I have it turned off and hidden because the government can track it. After powering it up, I click Father’s number.

“You better have an update I’ll be happy with,” Father says angrily.

“I have an update, but it’s not positive,” I say, nervous as to how he will respond to the news.

“Well! Spit it out!”

“I overheard the deputy saying he spoke with the FBI, and they are coming to talk to Luna.”

“She has fallen off the path further than I thought. The government has corrupted her mind to think she has to use them to continue to hide from us. Do you think she will run?”

“I do if she feels like The Family is too close.”

“She will never know, you must make sure of that. We must save her. Let me know when you find out when they will be there.”

“I promise.”

“You are making me proud. You will be greatly rewarded if you are successful in your task. We are close to your location, and the final part of the plan will be executed soon.”

“Thank you, Father. I will do you proud.”

Without saying anything else, Father hangs up. I power my phone off and place it back into the hiding spot. I will continue to make Father proud and help bring Luna back to The Family.

I will continue to gather all the information that I can.

Luna’s soul depends on it.
