Waking up after a long time of slumber, little Cara looked around without a clue of her surrounding. All she could hear was the beeping sound annoying her ears. She looked around weakly, a lot of thoughts going on in her head. She closed her eyes shut trying to remember some certain things about her life. Her heart immediately skipped as she remembered a face. A very scary face. The face who actually murdered her parents.

"This is not the time for crying, Celeste." He tried to comfort her.But Celeste couldn't handle the fear rising in her. "What if, John? What if they send Gor..?""They won't. He kills everything he touches. They won't risk it." He dismissed.Celeste sighed shakily. "We've made things hard for them. They might get desperate, John. I'm scared. He's the one person even you can't fight." John shook her head, not liking how she was behaving. "This isn't the time to be pessimistic."She nodded without choice and looked at her daughter, and then she sighed. "We shouldn't have brought a child to this world, John. We shouldn't have. How are we gonna keep protecting ourselves, and our child? Where are we gonna go now? How long are we gonna keep hiding?" She kept on with her sobs gettin

Hunter shook his head in anger at the man he came to meet. "What on earth are you yammering about?"The man gulped, let out a breath, and nodded. "Dos niñas. Vinieron aquí. Nos estaban mirando. Los enviaste? (Two girls. They came here. They were watching us. You sent them?)"Hunter shook his head in confusion. "No, no lo hice.(No I didn't.)""Creo que estaban investigando. (I think they were investigating us.)"Hunter furrowed his brows wondering about his statements. He wondered who, and somehow he got a thought. It was random cause he wasn't sure, then he brought his phone out, did something with it, and show it to the man. "¿Esta chica es una de ellas? (Is this one of them?)"The man immediately nodded. "Si. Si. Ella estaba. (Yes. Yes. She was.)"Hunter sighed. "Hmm. Okay. So, cuantas pruebas tienes? (So, how much evidence have you gotten?)""Todavía no he visto a tu padre, pero... (I haven't yet seen your father, but...)" He brought out a document and handed it to Hunter. "Robé es

"What did you get from your mom?" Emily asked curiously.Kara looked at her. "Did you know Layla was pregnant?"Emily furrowed her brows in obvious shock and shook her head. "No single idea, and she wasn't showing any symptoms."Kara sighed. "Well, she was. And whoever killed her knows.""They took the fetus?" Emily asked in disbelief and with a frown of disgust written on her face."Believe me, I was as disgusted as you," Kara told her.Zoey sighed. "I just...I just can't believe it. Layla just died."Kara looked at her. "Well, you better. We just need to find who murdered her.""To use to boost yourself at work, or because she was a friend?" Emily asked.Kara looked at her. "A friend she was indeed. Somehow, whatever got her dead, she was responsible."Emily looked away noticing her sarcasm about the friend part. "Well, she was my friend. I need to help.""Just do your thing, Em. Just don't go kill yourself." Kara retorted in a warning gaze."This isn't a joke, Kara!" Emily attacked

Nora blinked, her eyes teary, and her face pouted in sadness at Layla's dead body."By the look on your face, you know her." Her partner, Evan Griffin noticed.Nora nodded. "Layla Gates. She goes to Cap. U with my daughter. They're friends."Nora frowned at the disgusting sight and squatted in front of Layla's dead body. "Who..who the hell will do this?""Rogers, Griffin! I got an ID. Layla Gates." Officer Ross came to them with a purse.Nora stood up, and they nodded. "By the looks of that. Nothing was stolen."Officer Ross nodded. "Nothing at all. The coroner will be taking the body to forensics. Something was taken from her, we just don't know what."Nora let out a brooding sigh looking at Layla. "I guess that's one way to start the investigation. Who found her?""Let me take you to her." Officer Ross offered and walked.They followed him and went to the lady standing with other cops."Hi." Nora greeted. "We're detectives from the CCPD police department." They showed their badges.

"What if they find it, and find her, Ava?" Ken asked, worry laced in his voice.Ava shook her head. "They won't. It'll be hard to detect in her body.""But they'll feel it."Ava nodded. "They'll feel it's close if a searcher is used, but what they don't know is the inhabitor is not just any human. She's half among the dead, and half among the living, and it can only be found in her as a phantom."Ken blinked. "So, you mean it can only be clearly detected when she's a ghost?"Ava nodded again. "Yeah, Ken. If they have rights over the other side, then they can get her there. Luckily, it'll take time for them to realize that, and begin to figure out a way to get her to the other side, cause you can't kill what is already dead."Ken sighed. "I just...I still don't get it. How did she live?""I can only say she was split, but the story will be til when she comes. I told you I don't want to narrate it twice."...Emily looked at her roommate and sighed. "I don't really know why you're bei

Percillia frowned looking at her eggs. It was meant to hatch, but it hasn't. What's wrong?She blinked beginning to fire a million worst scenarios in her head.But then she shook her head. "It is impossible. They should know nothing can be done. There's no use. What is happening?"She looked back at the eggs with looks of worry evident on her face.What's happening?...."Thank you so much, Draco. You saved those dragons."Draco looked at Trick and shook his head. "No, I didn't. I just postponed their hatching period until I find a way to do what you want."Trick smiled. "You believe it's possible, right?"Draco nodded. "With a lot of incantations, I should be able to reverse the curse Glenda made on her babies. The dragons will live, and work for you."Trick nodded. "Good, 'cause I gotta go." Then he left Draco with the eggs.Arriving at the gathering, he walked to sit in his seat after bowing to the king."Why so late, Trick?" Gordon asked."Just taking care of a business.""From

Kara blinked still trying hard to look away from Hunter but finding it difficult. "Um, you...you look familiar. Why?" She asked in wonder."Cause we met yesterday. The other guy with your ex." Hunter informed.Kara raised her brow in realization. "Oh. You're friends with him."Hunter shook his head. "Not actually.""Why am I here, then?""I'm guessing why I'm here is why you accepted to meet."Kara narrowed her eyes at him in thought. 'I don't think he knows why I accepted to meet him. I mean he was a friend of mine. A childhood friend. Why else would I...why else would I...Oh, God! He's a Stark. Damn it!' She pondered in her thoughts."What do you want? I mean, honestly, I still don't get you." Kara told him truthfully.Hunter nodded. "The article you wrote about the vile drug lord. I want to know more about it.""Neo! Neo!" Cara fell to the ground crying."What is it, Cara? Why weren't you careful?""I...I just didn't...I didn't see it....""Miss. Rogers? Miss Rogers!"Kara blinked

"This better be good news, Dr. Chang." Mr. Stark walked into his lab."Have I ever called you for bad news?"Mr. Stark nodded. "What is it, then?""The types of blood you gave are unique, Mr. Stark. They contain genetic materials that are not of this world.""You mean they're aliens?" Mr. Stark asked.Dr. Chang nodded. "They are.""What can you do with them, then?"Dr. Chang smirked. "Watch this experiment."He opened a small glass space containing a rabbit, and cut his fur with a knife, bringing a shriek out of the rabbit."What are you on to?""Just watch."He injected a little bit of the white serum inside the rabbit. "Watch closely."Mr. Stark furrowed his brows at the rabbit. His eyes slowly widened as the rabbit's wound closed. "Did it just..""Heal? Yes, it did." Dr. Chang confirmed.Mr. Stark gaped. "Wow. And..and the other blood?"Dr. Chang sighed. "The male DNA is gonna need a lot more than rodents to experiment on.""What do you mean?""The blood is different from that of t

Kara called.Ellie's eyes flashed, her heart pounding, and she looked at Kara, and Sofia as they stay seated on the long couch. "Uh, yes.""Where have you been?" Kara asked."At a friend's." She gushed out "I told mommy I was going to meet a friend, so why care?"Kara nodded in a kinda unsure way. Her attitude was way above the charts. "Okay. You can go.""Of course." She said and immediately left upstairs.Kara's eyes followed her as she went upstairs."What's wrong?" Sofia asked.Kara looked at her. "There's something up with her. She's acting weird."Sofia sighed.
