The Wonders of a New Family

Chapter 4: "But, he saved our lives though."

"I'm sorry, who are you?" Josh asked.

"The name is Lewis." With that I burst out laughing.

"Cut the act!" I told him. He just frowned at me.

"Urm... That is my name..." I think it dawned on him why I was laughing. "Oh... No, not while I'm on my own on duty, the code names are mainly for radio purposes."

"I see."

"Your name is Josh, right?" He asked.

"How did you know?" He said eyes wide.

"I work for the government, I have been sent to look after Alex here while everyone is," he seemed to search for the right word, I wasn't sure if he didn't want to give much away. "Away."

"Away? And you aren't?"

"Stop it, Alex!" He stressed. I stopped and looked at the body by our feet; it was strange, having a conversation with it there. The man, I remember him as Wolf, followed my gaze and picked the man up and hoofed him over his shoulder and left the room silently. I went to the window and about a minute later saw a dark shadow make its way across the field around the back of the house before disappearing into the wooded area.

Josh looked at me like I was a lunatic and walked silently out of my room. I leapt back into my bed, turned off the light and fell asleep.

The next morning nothing was said about what happened the previous night. That was a good thing I think...

About halfway through breakfast there was a knock on the door and everyone simultaneously looked towards it, wondering who was there. Anita answered it and their voices were quiet as they went to the office. Josh and I exchanged silent glances and carried on eating our toast.

I was helping clear up when Anita walked in followed by a worried looking Ben.

"Alex, Ben needs to talk to you urgently." She said. I nodded and followed him to the hallway, no one was near.

"Tell me about last night Alex, are you alright?" He asked. His voice was filled with worry.

"Stop worrying, it was sorted." I told him. He ran a hand over his face and then through his hair.

"I know it was sorted, but if he hadn't have got here in time, who know how it would have ended. Did anyone else see?" I didn't know whether to tell him about Josh or not. I shook my head, looking at the floor. He placed a hand on my shoulder and I looked up.

"Alex, I need to know." He stated, not really give me much choice now to tell him about Josh.

"...Josh, he saw." I said. "Please don't..." I didn't really know what I was going to say but Ben turned back to the dining room.

"Josh?" He called and his looked up, his green eyes looking directly at me. He walked towards Ben and looked up at him. Ben put both his hands on his shoulders.

"Tell me what happened last night." He told him. I saw Josh glance at me but I ignored it and he took a breath.

"I was in Alex's room. I know I shouldn't have been but I heard someone coming and there was a knock at the door. I hid under the bed and Alex asked who he was and he told him he was his worst nightmare. And... and..." He trailed off, tears threatening to fall from his eyes and his face red.

"And he was going to shoot me with his gun but Lewis came in." I finished for him, seeing the state he's worked himself into.

"Lewis told me what he did; it was unacceptable to do that in front of you two." He frowned and shook his head.

"But, he saved our lives though."

:) Please review! :D
