Ruby is nice. She says she has recently discovered a never before found piece of land with all this oil underneath and since my parents work for an oil company, she wants me to help convince her father to dig there and get rich.
“Wow!” I say. “Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, why not go to some other company? Why this one?”
Ruby smiles, looking amused. “Yours was the easiest to get to. I wanted to get to someone fast before someone else found this oil.”
“When am I going home?”
“Oh, soon. Just after I make this phone call. And it’s a private call, I’d rather you not listen in.”
I nod and move to the back of the van. A private call, I think, should I? No. Will I? I sure am tempted. I think…I think I will. I smile mischievously and put my strain my ears to pick up Ruby’s voice.
“Hello, Opal?” she says. “It’s Ruby, your sister. I’m really close. Hang in there. I’ve got the daughter of Henry Smyth to go along with it. Without even mesmerizing her! Soon, the mud men will dig for the ‘oil’ and dig right through the roof of your cell…Yeah, I know. I’ve got it all planned. Stay to the northeast corner and you won’t even be touched…yes…hang tight, sis. You’re almost out.”
Oh my god! I think. The crook! She’s trying to get her sister out of some sort of underground prison! How could I have been so stupid?
“Alright,” Ruby says. “Time to get you home.”
“No!” I cry, angry at her for lying and using me. “You’re using me! I won’t go along with this!”
“You listened,” she growls. “I should have known. You mud men are all the same. You will go to your father,” she says looking into my wide eyes. Her voice is like a choir. It’s the loveliest sound I’ve ever heard. “You will tell him you heard from a scientist who came to your school for a presentation there is oil under the ground in the spot I said. You will obey me.”
“Yes…alright…”
Yeah, short chapter, I know. Ugh, I’ve worked for days on this one chapter! Please review!
