"Jeb I cannot believe you! You're terrible!" My mom, shouted at my father, Jeb.
"Please, it's for their own good." Jeb soothed. Well that ticked my mom off. She started screaming obscenities that I cannot publish here. I turn to Fang who was listening next to me. We were supposed to be spending the week camping with Ella and her friends, but Ella is a terrible packer and forgot a TON of stuff. So me and Fang flew back to the house to gather some stuff when we heard this, interesting conversation.
"What are we going to do? Should we disappear?" I whispered under my breath. He shook his head.
"We don't know what he is going to do to us yet." He pressed a finger to his lips and we listened closer.
"... They will be safe and cared for. I promise." Jeb said quietly.
"Yeah. While you and your creepy friends run tests on them!" My mother shrieked. I looked at Fang.
"If their sending us back to the school, I'm gonna blow." I whispered. He nodded fiercely.
"Why don't you and your loser friends just-"
"You know you get really pretty when your mad." Jeb interrupted. My jaw dropped. My mom said something quiet that I didn't catch, and Jeb replied a little louder.
"You know how I feel about them. I would never hurt them on purpose." Liar, liar pants on fire, I thought. "I'll make sure they're okay."
"I know it's just, what they've been through is so horrible, I- I-" she broke down sobbing. I looked at Fang. He shrugged and we listened again. All I could hear was movement. Like, clothes brushing up again clothes and the floors creaking. I opened the bedroom door that we were listening through and poked my head out to see what was going on. And… EW! They were kissing! Old people! I closed my eyes and ducked back inside. What seemed like forever later, Jeb said:
"Will you help me get them to the testing facility?" He asked.
"Absolutely." Dr. M replied. Me and Fang exchanged a look and we both headed to the closet where I keep backpacks full of survival gear. We grabbed the six bags and leaped out the window into the night. Looks like we're on the run again.
Okay, this is chapter one of my new story! Please review! Thanks for reading!
