Chapter 3: First Night.
*************************************************************
Alternate POV's
Kyera:
I followed Watch to the kitchen and looked around. It was actually pretty tidy especially compared to the mess back home. He went over to the fridge.
"I don't have much at the moment," he said, "is left-over pizza and coke ok?"
"Yeah that sounds good." I replied. I could tell he was very uneasy about me being there, which was understandable I did kind of feel like I was invading his house, but then I didn't want to get killed in the middle of the night staying somewhere else, plus I didn't have any American money only Australian dollars.
{Hey on the plus side I'm meeting some of the characters from my favorite series of books. I wonder how far they are into the series. though by the looks of them they seem the same age as me which means they would have finished the things I've read 3-4 years ago. HEY maybe I can find out what's happened since then. I wonder if Ann Templeton is still in the Pleiades? I'll have to ask.}
*************************************************************
Watch:
I busied myself with preparing dinner for us since I didn't feel that comfortable talking to her. She seemed nice enough but barely anything in this town was as it seemed. {And considering how she got here and what she told us it's probably better to be cautious of her.}
"Here." I said passing her a plate.
"Thanks." She took a slice of the microwaved pizza and put it on her plate then poured herself a glass of pepsi. "Want some?" She asked politely, catching me looking at her.
"Yeah, thanks." I said quietly. I knew I was probably blushing for being caught looking at her.
*************************************************************
Kyera:
I looked at him curiously, why was he blushing? {He was kinda staring at me just before, but that's probably because he's curious about where I'm from and maybe. he might be worried that I'm not really a friend. I guess I'll have to do my best to convince them all that I'm not an enemy especially since I need their help to get home. But he seems pretty worried about something.}
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
"Huh?" he looked slightly surprised that I had noticed.
"What's wrong? You look like something's bothering you and I know it has something to do with me." He looked up at me now staring straight into my eyes as if I was the one with all the answers.
"How much do you know about us?" he asked still staring into my eyes.
"Huh?" I blinked slightly surprised by the question. {Out of all the questions I thought he'd ask that was NOT one of them [but it is a fair question, wouldn't you be worried if someone showed up and said they'd read all about you and you didn't know exactly how much they knew about you from that, for all you knew they could know your bra size] ...eugh... true that and a good point.}
"Well. I know a fair bit but not like really personal stuff or anything, I don't even know your real name."
"Oh. Ok. So what do you know?" he asked.
"I know that you met Adam and Cindy when you were around 10 and when you met Adam you took him to look at the world behind the secret path, which the end of is at Madeline Templeton's grave and." I continued on telling him all that I had read from the Spooksville series and adding a few of my own thoughts on various bits with him blushing at some of the comments I made.
************************************************************* Watch:
I listened intently as she told me what she had read about us. The books definitely made us out to be heroes, but they also showed that we were fairly normal kids as well. She added her own comments and theories here and there and I was amazed how she could pick out little details from each book and make them into something bigger especially when it was a much shorter version of 2 years of our lives. She'd managed to explain a few things that had happened that fitted together, mainly the stuff involving Ms Templeton and how by sending us on the different "quests" she had been preparing us for something that was coming and that she wouldn't be able to help us with. I knew nothing that big had really happened to us, so I presumed this was still to happen.
{Then again there might be a reason this girl is here now and she can make all these connections.}
After she'd finished talking we looked to see it was now pitch dark outside with only the light of the stars out as there was no moon tonight.
"You wanna go outside and star gaze?" She asked me.
"Yeah sure."
*************************************************************
Kyera:
I lay down on my back on the slightly damp lawn not really caring what would happen to my clothes as a result. I stared up at the sky looking at all the different constellations, seeing if there were any that were different from my world. They appeared to be the same, so I concluded that possibly this wasn't an entirely different dimension but possibly just an alternate of our own where the timeline had branched off at some point far back in time.
"Aren't they amazing." I said to Watch as he walked up from behind me.
"Yeah." He sounded even more distant than I did which was really saying something. I sat up to look at him. He just stood there staring up at the sky but with a distant and distinct sadness in his eyes. { Better not to question him about it after all it's his life and I'm not even meant to be in this dimension. I hope he's ok.}
I lay back down and gazed thoughtfully at the stars wondering about everything that had happened since I got here and I eventually dozed off.
