Sorry I haven't updated in such a long time, I have been really busy with school and all, but maybe after this semester I will have a little more time to devote to my stories.

Chapter 6: A New Plan

Julia is rolling in agony on the floor next to Franz's bed screaming. Franz quickly jumps out of the bed, spilling pancakes and syrup all over the floor.

"YOU BITCH! I'LL FIND YOU! YOU CAN'T HIDE THEM FOREVER, AND THEN I'LL HAVE YOU TOO!"

"Julia, listen to me! Build up your walls, hold them strong and push him out."

"I c-an't, AHH!"

"Fight it, you are his equal, you just don't realize it yet, come on you are the only hope we have of overcoming him and restoring the order of our lives."

By this time Tara had stumbled into the room hearing the screams from the other room.

"Come on just let me in a little while, I promise I won't hurt you. You still have time to turn them in and not worry about me hurting you, but if you decided to continue to protect them then I'll just have to use some force."

"NO! NO! NO! Never, you can go FUCK a TREE before I turn in my FRIENDS!"

"Oh, tsk, tsk, tsk. That was not a very nice thing to SAY!"

"AGHGHG!"

At that time Julia passed out and Lance couldn't get into her mind for there was nothing there at the time.

Julia woke up about five minutes later to see a worried Franz and a frightened Tara looming over here.

"How are you feeling dear?"

"Maybe you should be the one lying down now."

"No, no, I'm fine now, but I think we need to start thinking of a way to protect ourselves from him."

"I think your right", Tara and Franz said in unison.

"First of all I think that you need to get your stuff from your house Tara. Franz?"

"Yes?"

"Do you have anything in your house that you need?"

"No, nothing worth risking a life for."

"Franz, I wasn't thinking of risking anyone's life. Are you sure that there is nothing that you need?"

"Well if you're sure that no one would get hurt, yeah, there is some stuff I need. First of all I need some clothes. Secondly I need my texts from in my secret compartment in the roof. Thirdly I would like to get some of my books from under my bed. If you don't mind finding a way to get them for me?"

"No problem at all. Tara Tell me what you need and all so I can use my plan to get them too because we know he will be watching there too."

"True, true. Well all I really need is some clothes, my texts in my safe, and I'd like to have my mother's jewelry. Would that be alright?"

"No problem either."

"So, how you planning on doing this without putting anyone's life in danger?"

"Yeah, how are you planning on doing that?"

"Well I can't tell you."

"Why", they said in unison.

Julia had to think fast, she didn't want them to know the truth and try and talk her out of it, but she had to think of something realistic and plausible so that they wouldn't be suspicious.

"Well if I told you and Lance tried to get into one of your minds and found out my plan then all would be messed up and then someone might get hurt."

"I guess your right, good thinking."

They fell for it, hook, line, and sinker. All she had to do was wait for them to go to sleep. Then she could put her plan into effect and hopefully be back with all their stuff by the time they woke up. All she had to do was make sure that they would sleep and sleep soundly and for this she got some medicine and fixed it all nice in there drinks for them and not long after that they were out like lights.

Julia called Lance.

"Lance!"

"Ah, have you thought about my offer?"

"Yes, and I have thought about what they have told me about the texts and I think I would like to talk to you about that in person, if you don't mind."

"Hmm, this wouldn't be some type of trap would it?"

"No, you can try and contact Tara and Franz."

He did, but he didn't get any response from them.

"See they're fast asleep in nice warm cozy beds."

"I see, so where do you want to meet?"

"I think that we should meet at your house. Make it fair for you. Just to prove that there is nothing-fishy going on. Sound good?"

"Sounds very reasonable, how long will it take you to get here?"

"An hour, I can't have you knowing where I'm coming from now can I?"

"Ha, ha, ha, you are a bright one."

"I'll see you in an hour."

"Yes, in an hour."

Julia had to hurry she only had an hour to put everything together, she quickly drove over to Tara's house and got all of her stuff, then she got some guy to give her his car and pulled it in front of Tara's house and quickly pulled some plugs here and there under the hood, to make it look like it stalled.

"Lance?"

"Yes, dear?"

"I have some bad news."

"WHAT!"

"My car stalled a street down from yours, a few houses down from Tara's, can you come fix my car and we can just meet in Tara's house?"

"Hmm, don't know about this."

"Oh, for crying out loud. Listen I'm not going to attack you all by myself and Tara and Franz are still fast asleep."

He checked for Tara and Franz and still got nothing.

"O.K. I'll be over there in a little bit."

"O.K., but you have to fix my car first before I talk to you, do you hear me?"

"O.K., O. K."

Julia quickly jumped in her car and headed toward the twins house and as she was slowly turning the corner Lance was turning the same corner in his brother's car. She pulled into his driveway and ran into the house. She quickly grabbed him two weeks worth of clothes and the books from under his bed. She went outside and threw that stuff into the car and then went back in for the texts. It took her ten minutes to find the hiding place and then she heard it, a loud ear piercing scream, he was coming back and he knew what she was doing.

There I will leave it at that, please review.
