expect me to that?” Seth replied rather alarmed.
“Well you're going to have to try, think of something to distract yourself when she's around. We
don't know what she can do seeing as you wont ask her. It seems silly you insist on keeping her in
the dark about everything, when it's plainly clear she's already like you in some way. You need to
tell her,”
“Not yet, she's still a kid.”
“Yeah one with possible mind reading abilities....that stares a lot.” Micah said.
“Funny she said the same thing about you, the staring thing.”
There was a long pause and then boots moved across the floor.
“Micah what is that dog chewing? Is that....is that my trainer!”
“Well this has been an interesting day and all but I need to be going, try not to get too much blood
on the floor. You're leaving a trail and you have company remember,”
I heard Micah's boots move across the floor and the front door slam shut. I stood up and quickly
went back to my room. What was going on? They both knew what I could do. What had happened
to Seth's face? neither one of them said anything about it like it was normal.
This was craziness and what I experienced in the car might not of been a dream but something I
picked out of Micah's head. He must of gone skydiving at some point.
This was the first time this had ever happened, I’d only ever been able to read thoughts not
memories. I had so many unanswered questions and I couldn’t believe my brother knew what I
could do and hadn't said anything.
I heard Seth coming up the stairs so I quickly switched the lamp off and dived under the covers. I
heard the door open a fraction, then it closed quietly.
I rolled over onto my side feeling confused, which quickly changed to borderline panicking Micah
had been talking about ME on the phone before. It was me he wanted to bring back. And he'd told
the person on the phone to stay away from me, but who was he talking to? Was it this Jessie person
Micah had mentioned before, who had apparently sorted my bedroom out ready for me and picked
out my sheets.
I laid there worrying about Seth, was he okay? The two of them didn’t seem to be worrying so he
obviously wasn’t dying, I'd see the damage in the daylight tomorrow then maybe he would give me
some answers. He'd have to it's not like he could say he fell down the stairs. So many different
things where whirling through my head I knew sleep would be impossible.

Chapter Four
    The next morning I was out of bed by 7am, washed and dressed by 8am then I went food hunting. I
rummaged around in the cupboards for anything that looked edible or in date, half a loaf of bread,
biscuits, soft cornflakes, tinned beans, a fridge full of red meats and energy drinks. I opted for a
piece of toast and the only thing I could find to spread on it was peanut butter which wasn't so bad it
was one of my favourite things to eat, but Seth really needed to go grocery shopping. I hadn’t seen
Gunner since I had been downstairs but I had noticed a built in dog flap which took up most of the
bottom half of the back door, he must be outside roaming around. Micah hadn’t said anything about
keeping the dog in so I assumed it was okay.
I amused myself by watching TV and reading more of my book. These activities kept me busy until
about 10am when I officially hit boredom, Seth still hadn’t emerged from his room. I was anxiously
worrying about him, I still hadn’t seen the damage to his face. I didn’t even know if he had to work
today, his shifts changed every week and he had random hours.
I finally decided on a walk to distract myself. Seth hadn’t said there were any dangerous animals in
the forest even when I had joked about the bears, so I thought a small stroll wouldn’t hurt.
Outside the air felt cold and smelled of pine which was the only way I could describe it. It was the
complete opposite to what I used to back home. Even though the sun was out and felt warm on my
face, I still needed my hoodie to feel
