Drake checked the address of the house with the paper he held and nodded. "This is the place..." he knocked on the door.
The person who opened it surprised him; it was Sera. "Drake! Umm... what are you doing here?" She was wearing a large tee but Drake could tell she had nothing on under it. He ignored how she was dressed and looked at the paper.
"Sera, is this the home of Kamryn? DJ said he lives here."
Sera nodded. "Yes... it is, Drake."
Drake nodded. "I won't ask why you're dressed like that, Sera, but may I come in?" Sera nodded. "Thank you."
Sera was only four years older than Drake, but already she seemed a young adult. Drake walked past her and sat at the kitchen table. A few minutes later a kid the same age as Sera walked out of a nearby room, his clothes disheveled. "I didn't expect anyone coming by... a friend of Sera's?"
Drake nodded. "Yes, and I'm guessing you're Kamryn?"
Kamryn nodded. "Yep. You must be Drake. You look a lot like that guy Sera had a crush on... before he died. Sorry for the rough appearance, we were still sleeping."
Drake shook his head. "It's fine. I shouldn't have woken you two up so early. So why is Sera here?"
Kamryn looked at the strange girl. "She's here because I was the only one left she could go to... her father wouldn't listen and her sister has been missing for a 6 years now. I'm glad I found her after that horrible day." Sera walked over and set a pot of tea, a smile on her face. Kamryn smiled back at her, something seeming to glimmer in his eye. "The future here has been changed, who knows for better or worse. Either way Sera and I will still be together."
Drake, seeing this, nodded. "I'm glad she has someone to go to... but have you heard that my mother had died of grief? If you're waiting for someone... I'm afraid they won't be here..."
Kamryn glanced at Drake. "I already know that, Shade. The two of us, Raina and I, may be connected in other timelines, but due to the events that happened here... We're all going to have to be careful about what we do."
Drake nodded, a silver sword he had carried shining and turning into a small white-haired girl about 7 years old. "We will be... I've got Lux and Zed to look after."
