Here's the Next chapter

* chapter 20 , ( No one's POV )

Cole slid the side door opened and stepped outside followed by his mother .

Maddie closed the door behind them before leading her son down the sidewalk .

" How far are we away from this place " The annoyed boy asked . " I would like to go back our planet in one piece " .

Maddie rolled her eyes . " You know this use to be my planet . " . Cole brushed what she said off .

" But now it is not . Your planet is now dad's planet . Which is where we belong " Cole's stuck his tongue out . " We don't belong here " .

Maddie guided her son through the woods .

" Why do you say that " She smiled a bit .

" Because " Cole replied . " That's what dad always says . He says this place is dangerous . And if there wasn't " .

Maddie stopped in her tracks . " Wasn't what , Cole ? " . Her son stopped walking .

" I did not say anything " He replied .

" It's about the war isn't it " Maddie asked . Cole nodded his head .

" I didn't really hear much about it " Cole kept on walking . " I overheard him talking to Sara and the Brunos through the compass " .

Maddie's eyes widened . " When was this " . Cole didn't say . That was the last thing he wanted to tell his mother .

" You two promised you wouldn't fight about the war " Cole stated . " he's only trying to keep us safe " .

" I Know " Maddie said . " But there's ugh , sometimes I'd wish he would tell me about the current situation . If there is a war , You know he's going to fight " . She sighed .

" I know , mom " Cole replied . " That's probably why he doesn't tell you about it . I doesn't want to worry us " . He stepped out on to the side walk . " How far are we ? " .

" Not far " Maddie replied .

She was visiting her old friend , Riley , In college , not far , Living at his same old house . Maddie went ahead inside the house . Cole refused to enter . He , like Seth , didn't trust anyone witht he last name of Burke .

Cole crossed his arms and watched the empty road beside him . He heard a feint laughter behind him . He turned around and there was a small girl about his age with dark brown hair in a ponytail .

" Hi " She said .

" Hello " Cole scowled .

" I'm Macie " She introduced herself .

" I am Cole " He told her .

" You wanna play with me " She asked . He shook his head no .

" You talk funny " She said . " You talk more like a ten year old than a five year old " .

He rolled his eyes . " That is because where I am from , the children are more highly advanced " .

" Ok " Macie said slowly . " Let's play " . Cole sighed . He agreed as long as it was not stupid .

After a few minutes of listening to Macie talking for minutes , Maddie finally came out of the house . Cole said his goodbyes to small girl then left with his mother .

Caydence was extremely happy when they returned back to the bruno's house . She jumped on her brother while laughing .

" Get off me , Caydy " He shouted . Caydy got off her brother but she kept laughing .

" You are so lucky , Cole " She told him . " What did you do " .

Cole told his sister of everything in detail about their trip today .

" You met a girl " Caydy giggled . " Ooh , Cole's has a girlfriend , cole has a girlfriend " .

" I do not " Cole yelled . " I do not her nor will I ever like a girl from this planet ! " .

Caydy kept on smiling as if she knew something Cole didn't . " You're just like daddy , Cole , Which means you will like a girl from this planet " .

Cole glared at his sister . " Let's get ready before Aunt Maria comes over " .

" Fine " Caydy smirked . She ran upstairs followed by her brother .

In the next chapter Caydence and Cole will be thirteen ! I know jumping really far but that's when the next set of events take place !
