After Violet had finished yelling at Rae and Owen, they had sat on his comfortable bed. "So, Owen, care to tell us HOW AND WHY THIS IS HAPPENING?" Violet said, raising her voice. "Okay, okay, I was getting to that" Owen said, trying to calm Violet down. "It's a bit of a long story. But, I'll try to summarise. It went a little something like this…"
"I was taking a nap on that nice, warm, summers day, the same one where I sent you two the message. But, I was woken up by someone, or something, scratching the back of my leg. And to me, it was MORE than just a scratch. It was like someone was ripping a hole in my leg and sewing it back together with barbed wire. When I turned to look, I saw a small, human-like…THING, with a green staff in its hand. It was wearing all brown, and had this huge nose. Its hair was in rags, and it was collecting my blood in this weird vile thing. I tried to catch it, but it ran into a hole in the wall. Thats when I passed out."
"When I woke up, the wound had healed and left this cool scar all across my leg. I was gonna send you a message right then and there, so I went to get my phone. But, when I put my foot down, grass had started to grow, out of the blue. This is when I knew something weird was up. So, when I got my phone and sent you the text, I thought that you guys would actually come. But then when you didn't, I had to get you back by doing all of this. My parents are overseas though, so when they come back, they're probably gonna kill me for destroying the house. Anyway, over the course of the week, I learnt how to make other things. All I needed to do was think about it, and BAM! There it is. I think the grass is an automatic thing though, I haven't tried to grow any grass, but it still ends up growing under my feet. Anyway, what have you guys been up to?"
As Owen finished his story, Rae and Violet were completely speechless. After the two processed this, Rae started to question him. "But…why didn't you reply to my texts? Or answer our calls? This also still doesn't explain how you…grew like that. What are you going to tell your parents, and everyone else you know? What about school? What about…everything! It's all going to change, unless you want to be a gardener for life. People are going to think your…a monster!" Rae said, as tears formed in her eyes. Before Owen could say anything, Rae had given him a tight hug. Violet got her phone out and took a picture, smiling as she fangirled on the inside.
Rae couldn't hold the tears back any longer. As she cried, Owen returned the hug and tried to comfort her. "Rae…calm down. It's not so bad. I can still live. I just need to make sure no one sees me. It's ok. Shhh…" Owen continued to comfort her as Violet watched on. Suddenly, Owen crumpled back, screaming. "Owen! What…what happened?!" Violet said, as Rae stared in shock. "The authorities are trying to get in…they're using…fire…" Owen said weakly. The inside of the house suddenly became a giant oven, and Owen was the victim. "We need to get out there and say that everything is fine, or Owen might not be able to move…or worse." Violet said, in a panic.

Hey everyone! I honestly thought that it would take longer for ideas to surface, but I got some pretty quickly. So, I will try and post a new chapter every day. Nothing more and nothing less. Times might change, but I'll make sure to give you what you came for. Thankyou and enjoy!
