Okay, everyone. I'm sorry this took awhile to come out. I'm not proud of this chapter, but I really want to finish this story so I can continue on other stories.

Thank you for the review. And I'm glad you found that creepy. :D

Haha! Love the reaction. :D And don't worry, I understood Stalker-ish. Darn you, AutoCorrect! And it's fine. Haha! I love talking about my friends. I didn't get to meet with my wonderful Mal actor (Orange Tie) and Plastic Killer is still considering the job offer. :D I'll try to add more about them. :)
That's it for reviews. Again, hacked into Grandma's internet and had to hide most of the time. Plus, the little kids could not stop glaring over my shoulder and reading everything I wrote...Because the concept of a laptop excites them and they will do anything to play Sims. (But when that side of the family is Strictly Mormon, which means does not listen, watch, or do anything that contains profanity or cursing, and I just so happen to be a Rebellious Mormon, which means I could give a crap about all that stuff...Heads will roll.)
But anyway...couldn't add any sensual, exciting, scenes in this...Not that there was any before...:) Since there isn't any school tomorrow, I might post more. As long as this story ends before the week is done, I'm good.
Also, I told you guys I was doing another movie practice. So far, only three people, four if you want to include me in the equation, showed up on Saturday. We read through the script, (got their reaction on tape as to who the Maskmaker was...Surprised my Amy actress because she said she was actually beginning to like Eric.) It was actually quite fun. I read Mal's part, something I've really grown fond of doing. After all, I'm playing the Realtor that Mal and Natara meet when they investigate the houses on Pacific Heights. (A.K.A, the baby scene where Maltara gushes about their upcoming bundle of joy. :) ) I also play the remix of Lance Boggs, which I renamed Kiristen Boggs, who is just as creepy. Then I play Genevieve Collins at the ending scene. (I re-vamped that scene a bit. Instead of Mikhail talking, Genevieve is talking. But Mikhail (Orange Tie's brother...Which I renamed him Spiky Hair, because he and Orange Tie switched hairstyles and he looks AMAZING with Spiky Hair instead of flat hair.) is still in the scene, but as my bodyguard instead of actually talking. He has one line though...'Is Everything Under Control?' That's not the only role he plays though. I tried to get him to play a lot of roles because his brother is Mal and will have to come to every practice.
I love how I go on and on about Orange Tie and Spiky Hair sometimes. But yeah, to the point of this. After one of my actresses left, my Amy actress and my Rebecca Resler/Brittany Emerson actress stayed and we had a mini-party. We made a video too, and it's on my YouTube channel if you want to view it. It's a dedication video, mostly. And if you listen closely, after the song ends, some Cause of Death music plays. :) (In the video, I'm the Brunette with the wickedly over-sized shirt, and my Amy actress (we'll fix her hair and stuff before filming) is the blonde. My Rebecca/Brittany actress is the one filming.)
And I think ya'll will be happy to know I recruited another Cause of Death fan. I even gave her my iTunes Account stuff so she could get all of the episodes I have downloaded. She's going to be busy for a week. :D
So yeah, I have a question for all of you. Saturday and a bit of Sunday, I've been feeling really light-headed. It's relaxed a bit and I can stand up for a longer amount of time, but I'm wondering if it's because I'm not eating as much as I'm supposed to, (I have been eating quite a lot lately because I haven't been eating enough.) Or I'm hung over from being sick for two weeks. I don't know, but, it's like killing me. I could barely even do the video because the room was spinning and I had to stay standing. I really didn't want to pass out and scare my friends.
Anyway, that's all for now. I'll try to get a better chapter in soon. Thanks for surviving another long intro. Read and Review? :)
"Natalia Warden," a high, hoarse voice chuckled. I looked up from my argument and instantly thought, Genevieve. "My sister did say you looked a lot like your mother. She wasn't lying."
"Who...Who are you?" I asked shakily. I already feared that I knew the answer.
"I am Carli Collins," the woman replied. "Mother of all the Cyborgs."
At least she didn't say serial killers. She's not as bad as Genevieve, but she's not any better, I thought.
"What do you want from me?" I asked, keeping a professional glare.
"It's simple. You're a smart girl and I'm looking for a successor."
"I am not building robots for you," I snarled. "I have a family to attend to."
"I'm sure Hal here can take care of your kids," she said.
"Not even when I'm dead, Carli."
"Why so tense?"
I scoffed, even though it hurt. "You should know. You set Hal up."
"He was stupid enough to fall for it. Natalia, you're smarter. Your life is on the line. Here are your options; You accept my offer, I free Hal, Kai, and everyone else in this prison and I stitch you up. You'll be as good as new. However, if you decline my offer, you suffer with everyone else."
Why did she have to be so clever? I but my lower lip in frustration.
"Natalia, don't agree," Kai said quickly.
"Yeah, don't!" Hal added.
"But no one deserves to suffer through this," I hissed.
"Think about Brynn and Tommy. They already lost their dad, Nat," Kai whispered, "if you left, they'll grow up like you did, abandoned and alone. They would be left with a man who didn't know better, and his good-looking wife and sweet daughter. The man would feel sorry about everything and decide on whether or not to run off because he felt like a failure for everything he's done. He would hate himself everyday. Everyday, he would worry about losing that little girl like he lost his best friends." Kai sighed heavily and covered his face. "They shouldn't grow up like you did."
I rested my hand on Kai's and whispered back a reply, "But the girl grew up loving the man more than anything and depending on him for guidance. She would risk her life to save his." I sighed heavily and then nodded towards Kai. "Kai, take good care of my kids."
"Natalia!" Kai gasped, but I ignored him. I looked at Hal and contemplated on what to say.
"Hal..."
"Natalia?"
"I might as well thank you for whatever joy you might have caused in our short time together. And I'm sorry about your wife. Maybe you can find another one."
"Another...Natalia, there's only one girl that I truly loved throughout the time I've gotten to know her," he replied.
"Then go find her and tell her," I replied coldly. This seemed to catch him off guard, but I didn't really care. I looked towards Carli and nodded. "Alright, Carli. I'll go up on your offer. But please make sure everyone gets out safely."
"Natalia!" Hal and Kai shouted, but Carli grinned maliciously.
Little did I know...I wouldn't be keeping up on that offer.
