sat her down on the other side of the room.
"What the hell did you do that for?" Evernime asked angrily.
Reece turned around to look at her, giving her a look that shut her up and Evernime couldn't keep looking at Reece. Reece used to have bluish eyes, but now they were a reddish color.
"Reece...your eyes," Evernime whispered.
Reece rubbed her eyes. They didn't feel any different to her.
"What's wrong with them?" Reece asked, standing up to look in the small mirror that was on the wall next to the bed.
She gasped when she saw the color of her eyes. "William! What's wrong with my eyes?"
William leaned over the bed to take a better look and gasped as she had when she saw them. "I don't know. They're red instead of your usual color. Do you know what's going on with her eyes, Creon?" William asked, looking at Reece with a worried look.
Reece rubbed her eyes again and blinked a few times before giving up. She sighed and flopped down onto the bed a little too hard, causing the bed to collapse underneath her.
Everyone laughed.
Reece got up quickly and gasped at what she had done. "Oh, my gosh! What did I just do?"
Evernime laughed out loud, her laugh filling the empty walls.
"I think you just broke the bed, smart one!" Evernime said.
Reece looked at Evernime with wide eyes. "But how? All I did was flop onto the bed!"
Evernime thought about it. "I've got it! You have super strength!" Evernime jumped up and down.
"Super-what?" Reece had heard her, but didn't think she heard her right. "Did you just say I have super strength?"
William and Creon were standing next to Reece who was pacing back and forth trying to figure out what had just happened.
"Try it out, Reece," William said, shrugging.
Reece looked at him like he was crazy. "Are you insane?"
William shrugged again. "Maybe. But what if Evernime is right?"
"We don't really need to worry if I have super strength or not right now. We need to get back to Monika's place and see if she is okay!" Reece said, frustrated.
"But wait. We need to be careful about what you do, Reece. I don't really know what is going on with your powers r how your acting fine so fast, but we don't need someone to end up dead just because you want to leave so quickly," Evernime said, leaning against the wall.
Reece looked at her. "You think I would kill anyone of you?" Her anger boiled higher and higher as she looked at Evernime, who was still leaning against the wall as if she never said anything.
"What? Why is everyone looking at me like that?" Evernime asked, unfolding her arms off of her chest.
"I would never get in touching range to hurt any of you. You guys are my only friends, and I'm still not sure about Creon," Reece said, turning to Creon. "No offense, Creon."
"None taken. But she is right, Evernime," Creon said, looking at Evernime who had a weird look on her face.
"I didn't really mean that she would purposely kill anyone. I just think that if she lost her temper like she's about to right now, she could hurt one of us accidentally," Evernime said, holding her hands out in front of her.
Reece looked at her and knew that that possibly could happen. "I shouldn't have gotten mad at you, Evernime. I'm sorry, and I know your right. I should watch out while my powers are acting up like this."
Suddenly, Reece's whole body was feeling tingly and warm. She looked down at herself and saw that her whole body was glowing a bright greenish color.
"Wh-what's happening to me?" Reece squealed.
"Your powers! This is the last stage! I have never seen someone with a green glow! That's impossible!" Evernime said with wide eyes.
William looked at Reece, then at Creon then finally at Evernime. "What's a green color mean?" he asked Evernime.
"I don't know," Evernime said truthfully, shaking her head. "But I think I know who can help us. Well, not just one who, but two who's."
Everyone looked at Evernime, confused. "What are you talking about?" Reece asked, sitting down on the broken bed.
"I know a couple people that know about these kinds of things. They can tell us what's going on with your powers and your body, Reece."
"Well, who are they?" William asked.
"Killian and Kyle Rodgers. They can help her, William," Evernime said, pushing her body off of the wall with her back.
She walked over to Reece, looking over her.
William groaned. "Oh, no. Not those two! Those two are idiots! They know nothing!"
"You know Killian and Kyle?" Creon asked.
"Yes, I do. They are under covers for us and live with the Skincrawlers. They pose as orphans that needed a place to stay and happened to pass by the Skincrawlers layer, which I have no idea where it is. Those two will not tell me. I trust them with my life, though. They contact us once a month to give us an update on them to make sure of curtain things. Did you know that? They really are part of our group that William and I made," Evernime said.
"No, I did not know that. Can they help us?" Creon asked, putting his hands in his pockets.
"Well, William doesn't think they can, but I do. They used to live with those new kinds of Skincrawlers. They have seen many other kinds that these two guys that I have never heard of created them or something like that. They know a great deal of things that happened to them."
"Who is 'them'?" Reece asked, not sure she wanted to meet these two boys.
"Different kinds of creatures and people like us mostly. A few strange Skincrawlers most likely," Evernime said, shrugging.
"I know those two boys," Creon said.
Everyone looked at him. "How?"
"When I was created, they were there to help me. I do not think that they have been giving either of you the right amount of information," Creon said.
"And why would they give us false information?" Evernime asked. "I trust them with my life. They would never give me false information. They are my right hand men, well, boys, anyways."
"When I was created, they showed me around and told me how to use my powers. I didn't even want them at first, but then they showed me things that made me change my mind about things. They are working with my creators Erone and Roney. And when I was created, those two boys were so kind to me, but after a few years, they started to change, and last I talked and saw them, they were so changed, I did not recognize them at all. Even their appearances didn't look the same. Their attitude towards everyone was just like Erone and Roney's: cruel and uncaring. They are long gone."
"But that does not mean that they were giving us the wrong information," Evernime said defensively.
"Why do you think they wouldn't tell you where the layer of the Skincrawlers are?" Creon asked, raising his eyebrows.
Evernime was silent for a heart beat before she turned and walked into the small kitchen to get a glass of water. She chugged it down in a second.
In her heart, she thought that Killian and Kyle were the trustworthy boys who believed in her, but in her mind, Creon was right. Being at the Skincrawlers layer with all those horrid creatures could put a dent in their life, affecting them in ways that she could only imagine.
"I am sorry, but I really need to go and see if Monika is okay," Creon whispered.
Reece nodded. They didn't need to waste anymore time then they already did. She can figure out what was going on with her later.
"Lets go. Did you call a cab, Creon?" Reece asked, looking at Evernime, who was drinking her fifth glass of water.
"No, I will right now, though," Creon said, opening his cell phone to dial a cab's number.
"Evernime, don't you think you shouldn't drink that much water?" Reece asked, grabbing the empty glass out of her hand.
"Hey! Give it back!" Evernime said, still wanting, needing water. She didn't want to talk anymore. There was no hard drinks in the place, so she had to pretend that the water was.
"No. Your going to drown yourself out by drinking so much," Reece said, throwing the glass in the sink so hard, it shattered into a million pieces. "Oops. I didn't mean to do that. I think you were right when you said that I might have super strength."
Evernime looked at her. "The green glow is gone, which probably means that your done with the last stage of the whole thing. I wonder why your powers didn't go crazy and out of control."
Reece looked at herself and saw that Evernime was right. The glow was gone. "I wonder if I got different powers now that I am fully developed."
"It is possible. You don't get different powers because you have always had them, you just didn't know it. They are kind of like dormant until your fully developed," Evernime said, not making eye contact with Reece.
"I just called someone for a cab and they said that they would be here in ten minutes if the traffic isn't too bad, twenty at the most," Creon said, shoving his phone in his pocket.
"Alright, lets grab whatever we brought here and get going," William said, entering the other room to grab his coat.
Reece sighed. She wanted so badly to go home, but now that they were going back there, she wasn't so sure that she wanted to. She didn't want to have to face the cops when she got there because they would be wondering why she left so urgently.
William emerged from the other room with a bag that she never saw before.
"Where did you get that bag, William?" Reece asked, looking at it. The bag wasn't very big, but it looked like it could hold a ton if it wanted to.
William shrugged, looking at it. "I found it on the way here. There wasn't anything in it, and I thought we could use it."
"You didn't even think to buy one, did you?" Reece said, shaking her head. The bag was so dirty, she didn't even know what color it was.
William laughed, kissing Reece on the cheek. "Another thing I love about you, Reece."
Reece wrinkled her eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
"Never mind. Lets go," William said, opening the door.
Creon was the first one out the door, followed by Evernime, then Reece then William, who locked it behind him for no reason at all.


{~Chapter eight~}


Creon was so impatient. He needed to see if his wife is okay. For every mile that the cab driver went, a pain in the pit of hi stomach hurt him more and more, telling him that something was not right about that phone call he had made.
He had plainly heard Erone talking to her, and he was sure that if Erone's brother Roney was there, she surely wouldn't survive.
He had held back tears so many times today, and he didn't think that he could if he saw something that was wrong.
He even prayed to God asking him to forgive him and to please let his wife and unborn child be alive. But he didn't think that He would listen to him because he didn't know if
