Shane was contemplating wheteher having Kuki see him was bad or good. It's harmless, right? I mean what's the worst that happeneds? She remembers where she met really met Wally? Shane thought. He needed to think things through. Alone. He felt something running out of his nose. He touched it and looked. Blood, hey maybe I can use this as an excuse! Shane thought. "Hey mom and dad, I can clean myself up. I just need to go to the restroom. Won't be long." Wally thought about it. SHould he really let him go by himself? No!

"Okay, but I'm comin' with ya." Shane rolled his eyes at the adult. Wally didn't notice. "I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere." Wally looked over at Kuki.

"Yeah 'cause it's my dream to run away from my husband at an aquarium in Louisiana."

"I'm sensing an attitude."

"I'm sensing that Shane is still dripping blood from his nose." Shane gave Wally a "let's-go-before-she does-something-drastic" look. Wally and Shane walked off leaving Kuki behind. I hope he's okay, Kuki thought. She felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around and saw a familar face.

"You have a really cute kid," a tall black woman said. This lady was stunning. She had lond brown hair and enchanting chocolate eyes. She had an accent.

"Thanks, but could you not mention kids? He's not really mine and it's kinda hard to mention it now." The lady smiled and extened a hand.

"I'm Abby Gilligan."

"Kuki Beetles. Do I know you from anywhere? You seem...familiar, like I knew you but I don't." Abby laughed at her. Abby bit her lip. Of course she knew her. They were best friends when Kuki were ten. Abby knew that. No one else though.

"No I don't believe so." Abby eyed the girl. She made a quick judgment. I have to be her. I have to! Abby thought. She waved a hand in the air. Kuki looked around.

"Whatcha wavin' at?"

"No one. Gosh you're silly!" Kuki let out a half smile and a giggle. Weird lady, but she seems nice. Kuki thought.

"Where are you from?"

"Maryland. I'm visitin' family out here. What about you?"

"Virginia." She turned around and started looking for Wally and Shane. Abby had gone into some long, boring story.They're still cleaning that nosebleed? Kuki thought.

She felt a hand go around her mouth and the owner pushed it on her face, squeesing her jaws together. She tried to look up bbut the hand wouldn't let her. She heard a voice. It was deep and scary, "You won't scream, or fight back. Just breathe and it'll be oveer quickly." Kuki panicked. and tried licking the hand.

(A/N I do that when something happeneds. I bit a couple of my friends after licking! So dog-like!)

It only gripped tighter. She felt a pain in her shoulder and blacked out. Abby and the guy who was helping her carried her out of the aquarium and back to Hoagie's house where the final change would happen.

Wally and Shane were in the restroom trying to stop the blood. Shane felt something ominous and dreadful. He started hearing voices. She needs you! Go out and get her. Now! they said. Shane ran out with his nose still dripping. Shane felt as if he couldn't talk. Wally followed him out. "Dad? I can't see mom!"
