I noticed Mira struggle with the trombone and I shook my head and pretended I didn't see her. The guards were beginning to unnerve me as I noticed them above us with bows and arrows. I turned to Bonita who looked equally concerned, I didn't see Anuja anywhere. Too many guards for this small number of people.

The doors closed and the man began to speak. The speech, however, was cut short by a commotion in the upper deck area. I saw the bows notched and ready to fire, I looked closer and saw a tiny string attach at the top of some of the bows and suddenly the bows aim sprang upwards and released hitting into the giant chandelier that held ALL the lights in the room. The crowd drew apart and I grabbed Bonita and slammed through the nearest closed door.

There were no guards here. I hurried with Bonita down a series of passages and saw Mira sitting in a small room.

"Mira," I said calmly. "We have to get out of here." The look on her face made me cringe, "Don't say anything about what I'm wearing or I'll kill you."

Moments later Anuja appeared in the doorway and smirked, "Well how'd my distraction work? Oh and there are some guys chasing me who want me dead."
