her mind about her help.
"Thanks. For everything," Reece said in an almost whisper.
Monika nodded, knowing once she handed over Reece's things, that she wouldn't be needed anymore.
A few minutes later, Monika walked back into her room and handed the things she had asked for. "I saw some clothes that I thought you would want. So here you go."
Reece said thank you just as Griffen excused himself out of the room while she got dressed and Monika left a few seconds later after Griffen had and closed the door behind her.
Once the door was closed, Reece cried softly so that no one could hear her and she got dressed and brushed her hair in the full bodied mirror hanging on the wall.
When she was done fixing herself up, she gathered her things and went to open the door, but found a piece of paper and a pen sitting next to the door frame on a small desk. She got an idea and sat her stuff down next to the table and began writing a letter to Monika.


Griffen was shaking, but he had no reason to be shaking. Maybe it was because of the conversation they had before Monika barged in and interrupted them.
"You okay?" Monika asked, not knowing why she was asking him when he obviously hated her. Why should she care?
"Fine," Griffen said, looking out the window. "What time is it?"
Monika looked at her watch and saw that it was almost time for her to get going to the library and open up. "Its almost twelve-thirty. Why? Got somewhere to go?"
"Yes, actually. Away from here," Griffen replied.
Monika narrowed her eyes at him and asked, "Why do you hate me so much? I haven't even done nothing to you!"
"Its not the fact that your human or that you haven't done nothing wrong to me. Its the fact that you just reek of desperation. And I don't like people who need someone. You see, I grew up with no one. I had to grow up when I was old enough. You grew up with someone. You grew up with a family and friends, while I was on the road hiding and hunting the same people that wanted me dead. And you think that your life is bad? I watched my parents get murdered by the same species that talked to you just a few minutes ago in Reece's house and you think that he was a good guy? Well, think again," Griffen said, folding his arms over his chest.
"What does that mean? He was telling the truth. he wants to help you and Reece. Reece could turn into a Skincrawler just like he did. It wasn't his fault. And plus, if he wanted to kill me, he would have done that while I was standing on the stairs in her house. But he didn't. I could see the truth in his eyes and knew he didn't want to kill anyone."
"I don't think so. He wanted you to think that. No Skincrawler is good. No matter if they got bit or not."
Monika knew she wouldn't win the argument, so she just shut her mouth, even though she wanted to spit in his face and yell that he was wrong.
Just as their fight ended, Reece walked out into the living room and said, "I fixed your room up as best as I could and I made your bed. Sorry, its still wet though."
"Its okay. Thanks. You should go now before I hurt Griffen," Monika said.
"What? You can't hurt him!' Reece said at the same time that Griffen said, "Like hell you can."
"He pissed me off, and I want him out of my house. I don't ever want to see either of you again," Monika said, shoving both of them out the door, but not before she gave Griffen a mean look.
Reece thought that was kind of weird of her because she had acted so mature about them not wanting her help.
Once they were at least a block away from Monika’s house, Reece asked, "What did you say to her?"
"I didn't really say anything to her. All I said was I grew up worse then her and she got mad at me for just saying that."
Reece didn't say anything because she knew he was right. She and Griffen were kind of trying to learn how to adapt to not having anyone around be themselves to protect but Griffen had more practice to live without parents from the beginning. "Is it hard for you?"
Griffen didn't look at her when she asked that. "All the time. But we need to talk about something else."
"Okay...what?" Reece asked.
"We didn't finish talking about William. I found a number for him and I called it and we set a meeting up and he wants to help. We need to find him though. He didn't want to tell me, well, because he still has trust issues with people."
"I thought you guys were like best friends or something because you saved him or something like that. Or was that a lie?"
"No, I did save him, and he trusts me, but he doesn't trust..." he stopped talking and looked away from Reece, who understood completely.
"Oh, I see. He doesn't trust me because he doesn't know me right?" Reece asked, not even mad because she probably wouldn't trust him either.
"Right. Your not mad?" Griffen asked, surprised.
"Nope. I totally understand why he would be the way he is being. Does he know that I am the girl from the prophecy?" Reece asked.
"Well, sort of. I told him that you are really important to me and everyone else in the world and all that kind of stuff, and he set up a meeting for us to meet. How does that sound?"
"Where are we meeting him?" Reece asked.
"You know how I told you that I saved his life in Las Vegas?" Griffen asked.
"You told me that you saved him, but you didn't tell me where. Why were you in Las Vegas?" Reece asked, giggling as she thought about Griffen gambling at a casino.
"What's so funny about Las Vegas?" Griffen asked, smiling.
"Nothing. I was giggling because I pictured you gambling in a casino. Continue with the story," Reece said, giggling again.
"Anyways, the day that I saved him, well, he wanted to make it up to me and he brought me to his apartment and we had a few beers. That doesn't matter though, but before we went over to his place, he showed me a place he always goes and he said that this is where he always comes. So since he never told me where we were meeting him, I knew that he was meeting us there."
"So we're going to Las Vegas?" Reece asked, excited. Reece has never been out of the state, and she was looking forward to leaving it. She's been in this state since she was born. Well, ever since she was sent here to be protected, anyways.
"Yeah. I just don't know how to get there, though. We have no money, or food or transportation to get there."
Reece's heart sank. "When do we have to meet him?"
"Tomorrow."
"Oh," Reece said, her heart sinking even lower.
"Yeah," Griffen said, feeling like he let Reece down, which he basically did.
Suddenly, Reece remembered something. "Wait. We do have money. Well, I have money."
Griffen looked up at Reece who had stopped in the middle of the road and jumped in front of Griffen, grabbing his shoulders. "Where?"
"In the Small Town Restaurant! Our safe!"
"But that's your money. You can't use it for this!" Griffen said.
"Its my money. I'll use it for whatever I want to use it for. Lets go!" Reece said, jumping up and down as she pulled Griffen along with her.


{~Chapter seven~}


Right after Monika slammed the door in Griffen and Reece's face, she smiled to herself. She knew what she was, and what she was is not a human like Griffen thinks.
When she first met him, she knew that he was a Firewiller. She didn't need to ask him once she smelled him.
When she had gone to Reece's house, she knew that the Skincrawler was going to come. She acted like she didn't know anything, but she knows that the newer Skincrawlers can bite someone and turn them into one, just like vampires can, but vampires don't exist anymore because the Skincrawlers killed all of them off just like they are going to kill off the humans and then the rest of those stupid Clans that Reece's parents think they can fix up and control.
But, Monika thought, if I am going to destroy Reece and her stupid little boyfriend, then I'll just have to wait until they get where I want them. I will kill them both. And then I'll kill her parents and the Skincrawlers and the other Firewillers can take over!
Monika laughed and took her phone out, dialing the number she was supposed to when The Plan was set. And it had been.
She let the phone ring four times before a male voice answered the phone.
"Hello?" the man asked on the other side of the line.
"Its me," Monika replied.
"Did you do what I asked you to do?"
"Yes, its set. They don't have a clue what's coming their way, Monika said, smiling to herself.
The man on the other end of the phone line sighed with relief. "I've been waiting for this for so long!"
"You mean we have been waiting for this for so long."
"Right. Just call me again when the other part of the plan is done."
"Okay, Boss," Monika said, about to hang up the phone. "Oh, and tell Creon that he did well. You know how he hates me," he said, and hung up before Monika could say anything else.
"Right, I'll tell him that," She said to herself.
"Tell who what?" asked a familiar voice, coming from the hallway. "Is it about me?"
Monika turned to see Creon standing in the hallway, leaning against the wall.
"Our boss told me to tell you that you did a good job because he was too chicken to tell you in the first place," Monika said, not even knowing why her boss was so afraid of him.
Creon walked over to Monika, kissing her on the lips, making Monika sigh.
"Its almost time. I need rest though," Creon said.
"Yes, you almost killed Reece, and if you had, then our plan would have went down the drain, you know."
Creon laughed. "Not really. I just thought I would try and see if she could get out of my hold on her in the bathroom. And she thought she did, but she didn't. She wasn't any fun to play with. She kept thinking that it was okay to die or something like that," he said, walking around her living room, looking at the fake family pictures on the walls and fireplace.
"I hate that you can do everything that Reece can. I'm am really surprised that she didn't even suspect that I had anything to do with this!" Monika said, laughing out loud.
"Well, that's why I love you so much," Creon said. "You always can make people believe in you. When is our next move?"
"Soon. We just need Reece and that stupid Firewiller to find her parents and we can make our next move."
"I wish they would hurry up and find them soon because I am getting impatient," Creon said.
