Family Unknown
Chapter 3
The group landed on Zack's king sized bed. The three guys recuperated from the hard fall to the
floor. Five minutes later, Zack walked in surprised to find the two girls lying on his bed.
"Of all the places you could transport, you landed on my bed!" Zack said annoyed.
"Well, how are we supposed to know exactly where to transport?!" Liz shouted in response.
"So… is this where we're gonna sleep?" Nick asked with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"No you MORON! This is my room!" Zack ranted. Underneath his breath he muttered "What an idiot."
"I heard that!" Nick shouted.
Rolling his eyes, Zack told them that they'd be sleeping in the living room. He left the room to find
sleeping bags. The sky slowly darkened to a midnight blue, twinkling stars set in. Gazing at the sky Scott
sat upon the porch. Liz jolted awake, from the loud snoring coming from a certain brother of her's…..
Nick, and joined Scott on the porch.
"Nick snores louder than hell." Liz said breaking the silence.
"I had to live with that all my life." Scott replied and then all was silent once again.
"Have you ever noticed that the stars are beautiful at night?" Scott whispered uncomfortable with the
silence.
"Yah, but I've never seen it as a free person before." Liz replied.
Noticing that it was getting late, they both headed inside and tried to get some sleep.
Zack had slipped out unnoticed by the X-8 and he headed to Max's and Original Cindy's place. He had to
talk to Max. Zack reached the apartment and keenly slipped through the window.
"Don't you ever knock?" Max asked noticing that he was there.
"I've phoned up Krit and Syl, we're getting Tinga out." Zack stated. "She's not in Manticore, I've
followed them. We're gonna get her out Max don't worry."
Max smiled, Case would soon have his mother back. Little did they know that an unknown soul stood
watching, listening in the depths of the night.
