"How are we supposed to get back to Lorien?" Eight asked. "I know there's the ship and stuff but... what?"

We all looked at Maggie and I sensed an inward eye roll. She sighed.

"We can rebuild the ship," She explained. Maggie took out a notebook from her bag and wrote down something. "It will take..." Down goes a few scribbles. "Approximately a month,"

"No," Nine replied quickly. "We want to see our cepans," Maggie looked at him in a way that made me sure they had discussed it.

"And the chimaera," Adam added. Maggie nodded.

"If I know my parents well enough, they are thinking the same thing. Anyway, it will take a year to get back," We all groaned.

We all tried to quietly think until Maggie and Adam grinned at each other.

"Sandor!" They exclaimed together.

"Where would he hide something!" Maggie shook Nine by the shoulders. Nine looked panicked.

"Um, anywhere!" He shouted.

"Where," Adam demanded. Nine gulped.

"The last place he visited was Ohio, before he got captured," Six raised an eyebrow.

"On Lorien, the people have our chests," Maggie stated. "Charm casting, spell 283. Lorien did it so the cepans had a connection with us other than memories so we can get back. Sandor was a tech guy, right?" Nine nodded. "He must've hidden it,"

"Hidden what?" Sam asked, obviously confused. Maggie crossed her arms.

"To contact Lorien, there are certain ways, one being a devise, like a satellite. In the control room Eight told us about, he was making a way to contact Lorien, to see the planet. The only problem was that the people you are trying to contact had to have the other satellite. My parents buried one when the explosions went off in case they came back to life. Sandor brought it with him, just for hope,"

We were all silent.

"So, we have to go to Ohio," Ella guessed.

"My parents," Sarah said. "I haven't seen them,"

"Not mine," Sam whispered. "What are we going to say.

The only good thing about a road trip with eleven other people was the fact that Eight and Ella were both sitting next to me. Nine was driving and Maggie insisted she went in the front because of Nines idiocy.

"I'm hungry," Ella blurted. This was accompanied by a loud stomach rumble. Even I was.

We pulled up into a little diner about halfway to Ohio. The waitress came up to us and asked for our order.

"Burger and fried please," I asked.

While Eight and the girl discussed the vegetarian options, Maggie pulled Nine aside. I could only see them and from what it was, it was strange. I looked at Ella for answers. She shook her head.

"They don't want me to know. Nine's mind is blocked and Maggie knows I'll do it. She's warning me," Ella sighed. "Anyway, I don't want to intrude and break any relationships I have with them,"

Now I needed to know.

All of us had decided to rent two rooms, one for girls and one for boys, due to my idea. They surprisingly agreed.

"Is this a sleepover or something?" Six asked, clearly annoyed at us sitting in a circle on the floor. I shrugged. One beat me to my question.

"Maggie?" She asked innocently. Maggie looked up from picking her nails.

"Huh?"

"Well," She started, crossing her arms. "Why did you lead Nine away, somethings going on," Ella nodded.

"Yeah, Three told me that he felt something between you but he couldn't tell what it was," She blushed.

"Nothings happening," She guessed, almost reassuring herself, but just as sad. I smiled.

"You want something to happen, right?" I asked, with a smirk, but not as powerful as Eights would be. She shrugged.

"I made him mad," I shared a look with Six.

"Everyone does," She reassured. "He'll probably forget about it," Maggie's eyes narrowed and I had a feeling she wanted to crawl into a ball and visit Loric heaven.

"On the first night I could sleep," She explained. "I talked to him and he opened up a bit and we trained. I made the mistake of going into his mind and forcing him to give me my legacies. He just got really annoyed that I read his mind. I don't understand!" She exclaimed. "He half opened up to me,"

"You don't understand," One teased. "That's a first," Maggie threw a pillow at her and sighed, leaning against the bed.

"Maybe he's scared of you knowing how he feels," Sarah suggested. "He might not be as open as John," Ella nodded.

"That's probably what Three was talking about,"

"What?" Maggie rolled her eyes. "That he likes me? He doesn't, I know it," Six crossed her arms.

"Look, I don't know you that well but you're smart," She started. "But I known Nine. He doesn't open up to anyone and I haven't seen him flirt with you yet, probably because he's secretly scared to talk to you," Maggie blushed again. She did that a lot.

"He said, like what you see. I just ignored it though," We laughed. She put her hands up in surrender. "I didn't want to say no or yes," One winked at her. "He's attractive," She groaned and put her face in her hands. "I'm gonna shut up,"

"What about Three?" I asked Ella in a teasing manner.

"He talks to me," She shrugged.

"You like him!" I teased.

"You love Eight!" She argued.

"I know," I exclaimed.

Their was a knock on the wall.

"Love you you too Mar," Eight said.

Sorry for not uploading in ages, I've got lots of work to do. Also I've got a school trip next week so I'll try to upload one more.
