Sorry, I got a new and AWESOME book from my art teacher before I switched schools (*sob*), and DUDE OMG I CANNOT PUT IT DOWN!!! If you like Darkest Powers, you'll LOVE this book. I do. I'll tell u more the bottom, I kinda want 2 get this done ^^

DISCLAIMER: I own no one, they all belong to Kelly. (Only 3 more months 'till The Reckoning! Meep!)


My breath catches in my chest as I hear Mrs. Thomas call out quietly,

"Chloe? Chloe where are you?"

I turn to the kids; Heidi, looks around me and says, "Mommy?"

"SHH!" But it's too late; her mom heard her. I am so totally fired.

"Heidi? What are you d-?" she stops when she sees all her kids.

"Chloe, why are they still-?"

"Oh, I had a nightmare," said Heidi quickly. "I woke up Haden and Alex too…sorry." Heidi looks down, like she's actually sorry. Oh my - man, I wish I had her 'looking-innocent-so-I won't-get-in-trouble' acting skills…maybe I should try that on Mr. Grumpy Werewolf sometime…

Mrs. Thomas smiles warmly, then says, "Oh, well at least I'm glad you're alright now." She shooed them out of the room, saying, "Now off to bed! All of you! I'll be in your rooms in a minute!"

She turns to me and I can't help but feel like this is all my fault; maybe because it is. Letting Alex outside…going and unearthing the graveyard next door…making Derek even more mad at me…probably mentally scaring those poor kids for life…But I'm surprised when she hands me a couple twenties.

"What?" I ask.

"It's your payment, of course. Anyone who can take care of those little trouble makers - even for a few hours - deserves this." She leans in closer to whisper. "And between you and me…some other babysitters say that some…odd things happen…Haden eating a lamp…Heidi making furniture and pillows move…Alex causing the sink to freeze over…"

She shakes her head. "None of them are as good as you though. And personally, I think that they like you."

Mrs. Thomas winks at me, and walks down the hall, going into her kid's room. And I can only stand there, stunned. The kids…they are like us. As in, werewolves, Necromancers, Witches, Wizards, Fire-demons…It's only a matter of time before the Edison Group starts hunting them.

I'm snapped out of it by a chorus of four voices saying, "Chloe!!!!"

Mrs. Thomas comes back to me, smiling apologetically. "I'm sorry dear; they said that they wanted to tell you goodbye. You don't mind, do you?"

I snap out of it, saying, "Yeah, sure I don't mind." Maybe I can somehow warn Mrs. Thomas…?

I walk into the kid's room; there's a bunk bed, and a couple toys lying on the floor. Heidi is on the top bunk, Alex is on the bottom, sitting with Haden in his lap.

"Hey," I say.

"Hi Chloe!" says Alex happily.

"Um…listen…"

"Oh we know. About it not being a dream. Weird things just happen to us," says Heidi, making me gape at her for a second.

"That's what I want to talk about; you…all of you…are very special. And if you ever, ever, hear of someone named 'Dr. Davidoff', keep away from him."

I don't think they are really gonna remember any of this, but it doesn't hurt to tell them anyway.

"Ok," says Heidi. "And what about that dog man?" she asks, cocking her head. I can't help but shudder.

"Keep away from him too. Is that the first time…how…how do you know about him?"

"Oh, we see him all the time," says Alex, as if we're talking about weather instead of a deadly werewolf who's probably hunting Derek and/or me down.

"Well don't mess with him. I know him, and he's…mean." I forget that I'm talking to little kids, so I gotta make them understand. They all nod.

"Ok, well I guess I should go and let your mom tuck you in now…"

"Bye Chloe!" they all say in unison, sad looks on their faces. Mrs. Thomas comes back in, and I thank her once again and let myself out of the little house.

Derek's waiting….in a car.

In a car.

Where the hell did he get a car…? I really don't want to know. I get in the passenger seat, and he drives slowly away.

"So? How'd it go?" he asked, clearly trying to make a conversation. I don't know how to say any of this…

"Um…I really don't think that's the last time we'll see those three kids."

He takes his eyes off the dark road to look at me with piercing green eyes.

"What? Why?"

I take a deep breath - thinking 'Hey - at least it's over! …for now…' - and explain everything.

The End


Ok, OMG the kids are like them! If you haven't guessed already, here are the kid's…'gifts' xD

Heidi: Shaman

Alex: Half Ice-Demon

Haden: Werewolf

Ok, that explains why Haden's chewing on all kinda of crap…he's teething! XD lol Poor Mrs. Thomas! All her kids are Supernaturals! 0.0 but where does that put her…?

I might write a sequel…it depends…OK! On the book that has recently attracted my attention! It's called "A Great And Terrible Beauty" and it's by Libby Bray. It takes place in the 1800s, and it's about this chick who is becoming a 'Proper Lady'. She's shipped off to boarding school…and oh ya, she has visions. Of evil things. My fav. Quote:

Heart pounding hard against my ribs, I say again stronger,

"Run!"

The thing hesitates, pulls back. It sniffs the air, as if tracking a scent. The little girls turns her flat brown eyes to me. "Too late," she says, just as the creature turns it's unseeing eyes towards me. The decaying lips spread apart, reveling teeth like spikes. Dear God, that thing is grinning at me. It opens wide that horrible mouth and screeches - a sound that loosens my tongue at last.

"No!" In an instant, I'm back inside the carriage and leaning out the window, yelling at the couple.

:D Whatever, I like it. But nothing can compete with Kelly. Nothing. Um…are my Author's note always this long…? Well, it's the end of the story, I'm allowed to do a long note ^^

Well guys, it's been fun! Love you all, review please!
