"That's what we all want to know," Sherri sighed, making up all the breath she'd lost."Oh, and Sherri what do you mean by "Key"' Ella said confused
(Toby's phone started ringing. He put his cereal down and looked at who was calling him. When he saw it was Charlie he answered. "Hello?"
"Hey Toby, you're on speaker. I'm just checking in. Are you at home?" Charlie asked.
"Yep." Toby said. He looked at the clock. Since it was a Saturday Charlie would be driving home from work early.
"What are you doing? Did you eat dinner yet?" Charlie asked.
"Yeah, I made cereal. Well, I didn't make it, make it, but you know what I'm talking about." Toby replied.
"Well obviously, you lack the smartness to make cereal from scratch."
"'Lack the smartness'? What does that mean? I don't 'lack the smartness'. I lack the energy." Toby said laughing.
Charlie chuckled. "Is Jessi home?"
"No, she's at a friends house."
"Well why aren't you with her?"
"Well, I was, but I was being annoying."
"Aren't you always annoying?"
"Wow. Ouch. Charlie, you're killing me today."
"I'm a cop. If I kill you, no one will find your body or know I killed you."
"Why does it sound like you've been planning my murder?"
"Kid, I've been planning your death since we first met."
"You were planning to kill a child?" Toby asked, fake shock in his voice.
"Be nice to everyone, but always know how to kill them. On that happy note, I'll talked to you tomorrow. Night."
"Welp, I won't be able to sleep tonight. Night" Toby said and hung up. He put his phone down and laid down on the sofa with his blanket and Alpha.

)Another figure came up behind Tayn and tapped her on the shoulder. "Is my daughter here? I think she and I need to have a little talk." Mikki asked as she landed on the front porch.
Oh no, Brisa thought, I recognize that voice. That's Mom. She face palmed and began to die a little inside. I can't WAIT for this.
(I might have to go soon, so don't be surprised if I do or don't post for a while.)

)River, who now felt as though her head swiveled every second, flicked her gaze to Jessi. "I'm sorry, I had meant to tell you, you could stay, but I was kind of preoccupied. If you two are leaving because of um, the wolf-cat thing, you don't have to. He seems to do that kind of thing... A lot."
River kept smiling at Jessi, Alice, and Brisa as the sick teen dove past her, hardly batting a lash as Bleddyn raced up the stairs. "That's... Normal... For her at least. Jessi, I see why your brother is too afraid of us to come in."
"Umm. Normal? She do drugs?" Sherri looked a bit concerned, mirroring her mother exactly.
"No." Lachlan and River said at the same time, and Lachlan nearly exploded with laughter. "She always makes herself sick to the stomach from doing crazy things. Like crashing a dirt bike into bushes at seventy miles an hour just now." Lachlan said.
"Thanks aunt River." Jessi said and watched Bleddyn run into the bathroom. "I don't think he's scared of you guys, he's just really antisocial." She said and glanced at Toby, who was now playing on his phone with Alpha resting his head on Toby's shoulder. "He doesn't seem to understand that people need other people to function properly."
"Oh," Sherri said, acting as if this made her feel better.
Emily was wondering what kind of friends her daughter had. Brisa seemed so, normal.
"Hi, Aunt River," she said, pausing to watching Bleddyn's headlong dash for the restroom. Overwhelmed and more than a little bit confused, she turned to Grace and asked, "Who should we show the folders? Lachlan, maybe?"
Jessi turned to Brisa and Alice. "Hey guys." She said. She walked into the living room, and sat down on the couch. She looked out the window and started watching Toby as he turned on the radio and started singing along while still doing stuff on his phone.
"I don't know, Camilla said she was here that's why I came here."
"hey, Is Bleddyn ok?" She asked, a bit nervous of going inside she hadn't expected everyone to just randomly show up here.
Alice hesitated she thought they should show them to Wolfram, but then what if he took them and wouldn't let the rest of them see. "Uhh, yeah. We should all look at them."
River shrugged. "I think so. Just still shook from the fight at the park. And crashing a dirt bike to get here didn't help her."
Lachlan walked up. "Wait, what should you show me?"
(sorry been on the phone all day I was trying to keep caught up here... while on the phone.)
Alice looked back at Toby who was out in the drive way as she stepped toward the door.
"That shop owner at the park, she said that woman was an enchantress. I didn't notice at all, I don't even remember most of what she said. I guess you had the right idea to get out of there." She shrugged holding the folders against her chest, "She had some information on those other guys too." She pursed her lips in a small smile. "I think we're going to look at it if you're curious." She shrugged again and stepped inside.
Alice took a breath Aunt River's was a mad house tonight. The two dogs bounced around the living room, running from one person to the next their whole bodies wagging with their tails. several people sat on the couch and others were standing around. Wolfram seemed to be shooting daggers out his eyes at Jessi who was pointedly ignoring him and playing on her phone.
"Why don't I just put it on the coffee table." She said, feeling a bit claustrophobic with the amount of people.
Wolfram watched Bleddyn make a mad dash up the stairs, concern worming its way inside him. Was she alright?"....ABOUT THE PARK INICIDENT, RIGHT?!"A loud yell from someone made him jump, and he wearily came up beside Lachlan."what's going on? I didn't hear."
"When they saved your parents from Firestein-" Lachlan blurted, and River elbowed him in the ribs hard.
"They did?" This was news for Sherri. Emily was still in the kitchen.
She walked in and peered at the papers, and her heart skipped a beat.
"Doing some research," Sherri explained.
"River, mind if I make dinner?" Emily pretended to be unfazed.
"I know the best thing to calm teenagers down is food." (Truth)
Alice decided no one had heard her ask to look at the second folder, so she moved the top one away on her own. Inside was a faded but white piece of paper with a staple in it. Across the top in bold print was the word PURE. Then below was a picture of the man with the scary eyes. His name next to it was Gerald Thane. there were pages stapled to the back detailing his work history, he was part of the military about 20 years ago.
There were other pages behind him all with the same set up Pure across the top a picture and a name, and then stapled on pages describing their past job history. most seemed to have been military. At the very back was a single page not stapled. It was a black and white photo, of a woman with half dark, half light hair, and cat ears. Across the top was written IMPURE. Alice picked up the paper. "Uh, Wolfram is this the person you were talking about?" She asked handing him the paper.
Wolfram turned around to face her, and picked up the pictures, flipping through them. He paused on one a whimper coming from him. Two masked men, holding a woman between them. He shuddered, and dropped the folder on the table. There was a article about a woman who had been missing, and had soon been found. And the woman's name was no one else but Silver Martindale. Wolfram's mother.
River's was listening so intently to the teenagers that when Emily spoke, she was completely out of it. "Wait, what? Sorry I was listening to the teens." She said, then winced when a yell rocketed through her house. "Why didn't I lock the door." She muttered under her breath so that rage-Tayn wouldn't hear her.
Tayn looked like she might actually explode. She opened her mouth to continue yelling, but was interrupted by Emily.
She stared at her blankly not recognizing her for a second. "Hi." She tipped her head to the side trying to place her. "Emily." she said finally. "Uh, sorry about that." She pursed her lips and tried to hide the embarrassment she was feeling for yelling. River wouldn't have minded her storming in and yelling at her kids. She didn't know Emily that well, though.
"Alice," she said in a more normal voice though it was obvious she was still angry. "Car."
River jumped at the sound. "What the..." No River, don't get distracted, Tayn first.
"Sorry River." she said calmly, and rubbed a hand over her face. "Did Gage call you?" She asked.
Bleddyn literally crawled into the living room, defeated, and defeated violently so.Wolfram slowly picked up the newspaper again, his hand pale white. He looked over it, the picture disturbing him, setting a cold, sickening feeling deep in his chest. His mother was hanging limply between two masked men, looking up at one defiantly, rage burning in his mothers gaze. He threw it on the table, turning away from everyone. The thought that he mother had been captured by those....people made him feel sick to the stomach. He backed away from the crowd, hiding his face a best as possible.
("What thegunsthe what...what the.....skateboard pavement- the ow what thosethings they crap there put in that them owww."Bleddyn literally crawled into the living room, defeated, and defeated violently so.
It was even too much of an effort to go grab a glass of water to wash the bad taste out of her mouth. Her whole world still spun mercilessly, everything and everyone rippling into a distorted blur of their original shape whenever directly glanced at.
Bleddyn's head was so overcome by painful static now that it seemed miraculous that her ears were even still picking up outside clamor. No person was an individual with an identity to her now; rather, they all were one massive contributor of noxious noise.
"What thegunsthe what...what the.....skateboard pavement- the ow what thosethings they crap there put in that them owww." But once the pandemonistic echoes began roaring back, she was regretting even having uttered anything at all.
Additionally, perhaps that overzealous joyride hadn't been the best idea after her system was still fighting an involuntary war against alien substances.
With a croaking moan, she flopped down onto an unoccupied couch, and sufficiently buried herself into a pillow.
