Note: This Chapter has over 3,000 words (excluding this note) for a reason. I was sick and had to update just 100 words, and posted chapter 71 the next day. Then I came back to rewrite this chapter. I had so much to unravel and I couldn't split it into two parts because there's chapter 71 already. This chapter consists of Macey, November, Chase, and even Harriet Calhoun's scenes separately.__________Macey woke up and found herself at the hospital with a breathing tube in her mouth. She was currently on a drip and it seemed as though her body was snatched and then patched up because of the pain she felt. She had a flashback of the previous evening and then she could remember everything. The unknown men who showed up and shot at them. And then a clueless Quentin who she saved from sustaining bullets and received the bullets instead."Macey, you're awake!" Yelled Quentin from where he was and he rushed to her side with excitement, "Christ, I wasn't expecting you to wake up by this time
"November?" Macey called his name with uncertainty and then he approached her bed with a small, sad smile on his face. He felt guilty that he was blind and unable to help her when she got shot. She had been in pain for the past twenty-four hours."My god, it is you!" She exclaimed with glee and then paused to wince in pain. Shouting wasn't required in her condition because it felt as though her bruises were expanding."Sorry, Mace." November sat beside her bed and put his hand on her shoulder. It still felt surreal to him that he could see, after staying for over one day as a blind person.So much had happened within two days and he wouldn't worry her with the details of how he was kidnapped, locked up, and had his blood extracted by Doctor Hemmingway. He wouldn't have been there if it weren't for Styles, Sebastian, and surprisingly Bradley Norman, the giant whom her father despised.November wrapped Macey into a light hug and she completed the hug with her hand on his back."I'm so
November and his friends had impersonated women once more, except Macey. This time they had used their savings to get clothes because they couldn't arrive at the museum as just teens. It was stated that the section which had the super suit was restricted and only +18 could go in to have a look. Top men and women in Indianapolis were interested in taking a look at this super suit and the Museum's manager had said the price of the super suit was undisclosed. They had intentions of selling it for millions of dollars.Sebastian had sneaked them into his room through his window to make use of his aunt's makeup. It was a stressful evening for both boys, having their stubble get shaved off with Macey slapping different powders to their faces and applying lip gloss on their lips so they could look feminine. Afterward, they dressed up in gowns, wore wigs over their heads, and put on heels."This is the worst evening of my life, dressing up to get back a super suit," it was Sebastian, trying as

But he wasn't allowed in because he didn't have the exact Super-suit card and so he was asked to wait outside."C'est fou, je suis Carlotta De Vinci, la baronne française," Sebastian burst out in French, feigning anger."Nous ne faisons que suivre les autres, Mlle De Vinci. Désolé, vous ne pouvez pas venir avec la carte d'invitation de super suit," the manager replied back in French, looking completely apologetic." Vous pourriez peut-être passer un coup de fil et demander à quelqu'un de l'hôtel de l'apporter. Je pense que tu as oublié de l'emporter avec toi." He scratched the back of his head."I want to urinate," Sebastian said in English after letting out a huff and straightening his collars and he was led to the restroom by one of the janitors.He and Macey conversed with their eyes fr
"We found Jane's parents. They came to report at the sheriff's department just this evening. Turns out her name is Sarah and she's sixteen. The only child of her parents," Sheriff Brightside informed the kids who were standing right outside the morgue."Poor Sarah, it was all my fault that she died," it was taking everything within November to not scream out his lungs in anger. And Sheriff Brightside sighed because he felt it too. He could still remember when Harriet Calhoun brought the girl to the station. It was only just a day ago."You were trying to save both yourself and her," this from Sebastian who had sensed November's misery.Macey came out of the morgue, looking sad. She was the last person to be inside the morgue and she went to hug her father. It was heart-wrenching, knowing that Jane was truly dead after all she had been through. They had all known the girl for some hours, yet her death touched them so much. Mostly November who restored her sight and went blind for twent
"Feels like we're complete adults already," Macey muttered when Quentin stopped his car at the school parking lot the following day."Yeah, so much has happened that it feels like we should just drop out and take up skip tracer and private investigator jobs," Quentin responded and took his dark shades off.November was the first to hop out of the car and slammed the door shut. He had lost his bike when his house got burnt down by Chase so Quentin had offered him a ride to school, along with Macey. It was at that moment Sebastian stopped his bike, took off his helmet, and put it between his arms. He ran to catch up with his friends upon seeing them."I couldn't sleep last night because I was doing some findings about Scott Andrews, it turns out he's part of the museum's shareholders that's why he could have the super suit there and he's close with Chase's dad, Prosecutor Adams." Sebastian provided, holding up his phone to show November and Macey a picture of the younger and older man
"I don't understand why he's here. I feel like he's following me or something," November muttered to Sebastian before grabbing a plate of pasta and settling on his traySebastian scoffed and wore his cap properly over his head, "Maybe you're overthinking things, November. Mr. Allen is new in town and coincidentally found his way here. I don't see anything suspicious about that."They were in the kitchen at the Mindflayer diner, working after their two days of absence. Mr. Ravenscort had pardoned them after November showed him pictures of how his house got burnt down. November left and returned with plates of leftover dishes and dumped them on the kitchen island. "Something seems off about him.""Dude, you're taking things too seriously. It's fine if you don't like him, but it's not always your instincts are right about someone. Macey and I don't even feel bad energy from him," Sebastian gave off a light shoulder shrug before accepting the smoothies from a cook through the small openi
"Hey, kiddo, are you lost or something?" An elderly woman making use of her aid stick asked the toddler who was staring around him like he was possessed or something. He was in rags, barefooted, and had dirt stains over his face."Hey!" She called out to him once more and he immediately snapped his head in her direction like he was possessed or something."Jeepers! You scared the living daylights out of me!" She exclaimed before bursting into laughter and nearing his side because he had paused walking."Now tell me, are you lost?" He hesitated before nodding in a calculative pattern."Do you remember anything? Your mom's phone number or something?" He shook his head this time before switching his eyes to depressing black and accessing her body. Her heart wasn't vibrant like that of a young person, but it didn't seem as bad as the last one."It's cold out here and late too, maybe I should take you home with me and clean you up nicely before calling the police. What do you think?" The
