Ok here we go! The last chap was more serious than you thought it would be, hehe gotcha. Oh, by the way, Neith4Weiss made another good point (We all clap and cheer) that a lot of writers on this site don't take advice from the readers; witch to me is odd. I mean, if you disregard the requests that make sense to make you happy… who is the fiction really for? Sorry just mu opinion that no one has to listen to. But thank to all for the great reviews, you're all the best!

This chap is dedicated to Neith4Weiss. I don't know what I'd have done if you didn't review, lol.

Also dedicated to xXxBloodandPain.LikeNoOtherxXx I love your really enthusiastic reviews! They make me smile.

Reid's POV

We snuck past my mom and out the Hummer so we could get Lacey to the hospital. We laid Lacey down in the back of the hummer so we didn't accidentally hurt her

"You were irresponsible—" spat Caleb although he faded in and out, to my ears, he was just the roar of the engine making too much noise

"Why…? Why do the people close to me suffer? Am I walking target for bad shit? I thought maybe, just this once, I'd keep someone safe." I put my head in my hands "What happened to her back there? I couldn't have done that to her could I? Did I really out her through that much pain?"

I heard a groan from behind the back seat "ugh, what the hell? Where am I?"

"You're safe Lacey." I said "we're taking you to the hospital."

"No!" she yelled "Not there! Take me to Salem!"

"What? No, I saw you when you were passed out, Lacey. You're going to the hospital." I told her

"No I'm not going—"

"Yes you are!" I interrupted

"…It won't work. Nothing they can do works on me. It's a different type of wound that the medical field can't fix." She mumbled "Please Reid…Caleb…take me home. I'm really tired…"

I undid my seat belt and climbed over to her, then out her head on my lap "Caleb, Can you head to Salem for me?"

"What?—"

"Listen to me, Bro."

He didn't say anything but I could feel the car moving off the interstate to the smaller brick roads of Salem.

"You better know what you're doing you two." His leader voice made me on-edge for the worst

"Have some trust in us, Caleb." She smiled then grimaced "…I said some things back there didn't I?"

"Yes." Both Caleb and I replied

"And you're body did things that really need to be explained." I finished

We drove the rest of the way to Salem in a tense, anticipation-filled silence that let my mind wander

"Lacey, you're insane. If you're a monster than I'm a Catholic nun." I looked down at her as she rested her tired, frail little body "If you would have died back there…" I immediately tried to remove that thought from my head "You're losing it Garwin! You've known her for a god-forsaken couple of days! What the hell! I'm losing my freaking mind, I'm losing my freaking mind, I'm losing my freaking mind…" I continued my little rant until it felt warm little hand intertwine with my cold one "Maybe when she tells us what's going on I'll understand…"

"Lacey, we're here where do you want me to take you?" asked Caleb

Lacey sighed "A shop called Daughter of Salem on Ivy, oh great and powerful mister Son-of-Ipswitch. Did you catch the similarity? Oh yeah. Call Pogue and Tyler. They need to hear what I have to say as well."

"Right." He dialed baby boy's number spoke

"Hey. Ipswitch emergency. Get to a shop called Daughters of Salem it's on Ivy Boulevard."

Mumble, mumble

"Well duh it's in Salem, Ty." That made me smile

Mumble

"Alright, see you there." He hung up

We arrived and I carried lacey out of the car but before we could get to the door, a little girl ran out of the shop.

"Lacey!" she looked from me to Caleb

"Hey, Tink. 'Sup?" she grinned weakly

"'Sup? SUP? Are you insane?!"

"Possibly."

"Get your booty in the store, NOW!" she looked at me "I said now so move!"

I fast walked into the building "Lacey helped raise her."

The little girl ran in again and bolted down a set of stairs "Nana! Nana! Lacey needs help!"

I turned the corner and she was pounding on a door with no handle and no lock

"Tinkie. You should know by know they can't hear you. Reid," she looked at me "You can open it."

I raised an eyebrow

"Use." She clarified

"He's not a Garwin is he?" sneered the girl

Lacey chuckled "Yes he is. This is Reid."

"Well he could have found a better way to make himself known other than bringing you here on your last leg!" she huffed

"Hey! Who made you the boss?" Lacey argued back lightly

"At least I can keep myself in one piece long enough to recover from a hangover!"

"Why you little!" that tore it, Lacey tried to jump out of my arms to tackle this girl but I wrangled her into submission

"Bring it, witch!" shouted Tink or what ever her name was while holding her tiny fists up but Caleb caught her mid-run

"Easy! Easy! Girls really! Come on now!" He responded with wide eyes

"Just open the damned door, Reid!"

"Fine!" I Used on it and it opened easily

"My head hurts." She mumbled after a moment

"Shh, relax." I cooed, "You really shouldn't have gotten yourself worked up like that you're too weak right now."

"Uh-huh." She closed her eyes and rested her head on my chest "It's going to be hard to relax in a second."

"What?"

"Just walk."

"Right. Caleb?" I looked at him

"I'll wait for Ty and Pogue up here."

"Ok." I started my decent down the stairs

"Good luck new guy!" chirped Tink

"She must have accepted you." Lightly laughed Lacey as she laid in my arms

"Yeah, but does my name have to be 'New Guy'?"

"She'll think of something."

A light came out on an opening door. An old man stepped out into the hall. "Lacey…?"

TBC! RXR!
