All Chapters of Prisoner: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Oliver thought that if people didn't return, to tell the wonders of The Gold Star must be because there was no reason to return. His mother also did not plan to return when they were both out; even when Oliver pleaded for his friends and the other women who lived with them, his mother refused to go back for everyone.              >> We'll help them from the outside, Oliver. The police will take care of it.                                 If we go back for them, no one will get out. <<“Do you know how to get there,” he insisted.Chrystal stared at him for a few seconds with a raised eyebrow. She wasn't sure if going in search of a legend was a good idea; what was the point? If she could have a second chance she would choose to live with her family and cherish the moments with them more, somethi

“Will you come with me?” Chrystal and Oliver had been discussing for hours about the best plan to get to The Gold Star. Chrystal didn't believe the place existed, but after going back to her parents' room and seeing that picture... thinking about the fantasy city was distracting her from the painful memories. When she heard the chestnut's voice, she stopped talking, taking her eyes off the huge map. Going with him to a place that probably didn't exist? She had to tell him that she planned to take him to the port and sneak him on a ship with a far destination; that was her way to help him escape and start his new life. Thus, she would seal that strange deed. “You would have a second chance, and you would no longer be alone. Jack and Ann are good people; we take care of each other and....” “Do you think I'm alone?” Oliver was trying to sort out his thoughts, he wasn't good at talking, but he was good at observing. Chrystal was a sad person, alwa

Oliver stood watching while the only person who had been kind to him vanished into a crowd of people. He didn't understand why she abandoned him, he shouldn't have proposed anything to her, or maybe he should have explained himself better. He knew that nothing good came out of his mouth, and that's why he had to keep quiet most of the time. The sound of the ship setting sail made him jump; he covered his ears with his hands and turned around to see how one of the huge ships began to move forward. People are gathering, the noise increases, making him nervous. He was not used to many noises and many people; he really hated it.Would that be the boat that Chrystal Daly bought? He would not go up; whether it was or not, he wouldn't do it. It wasn't the first time he found himself alone in a difficult situation; he had to face it, even if he was scared to death. He could not afford to give up; he had promised his mother that he would escape and live for her, for both.

The next morning Oliver woke up with the sunshine appreciating the sunrise once again. They got a room in a small motel on the outskirts of Dinashia and decided to stop by to buy warm clothes for Oliver. The cold started to get more intense and getting sick would only slow them down more. The green-eyed boy was fascinated by all the different clothes in that store, he had never had the opportunity to try on or buy clothes for himself, so it was all new and exciting. Chrystal Daly was very patient with him when it came to choosing what he liked and needed; in the end, he chose some dark green thermal pants and a T-shirt, as well as a jacket with a brown hat, gloves, socks, and the best of all: shoes, nice and comfortable brown boots.“What do you think? Do they fit, or are they too tight?”Oliver wasn't smiling much, but this was the first time Chrystal had seen the freckled man with a huge smile for his boots; it was like seeing a kid in a candy store.

The path to The Gold Star consisted of crossing the city of Dinashia, turning off through the Lundertood forest, which is the current border to the town of Neshala; once in Neshala, they had to find the secret door that led to the Golden Sea to cross it and thus reach the mystical Gold Star finally.Everything seemed natural to Chrystal until the part about finding the secret door. In the books, the door was created by the pair of lovers never to be found and could only be found by those with a pure heart. There was no location, and the internet sites did not have much information.The more they advanced towards the prosperous city of Neshala, the more she wondered how they would find the secret door if it existed, how they would manage to reach the other side of the sea with their friends, and if it wasn't the case... what should she tell Oliver?She thought about bringing Oliver down from his fantasy world and telling him what was going on, bringing him back to the real world so tha
