A/N: Hey guys, how's it going? I'm doing pretty well, and I hope you are too. If you're not, then I hope this chapter makes you feel better. So, I had a song stuck in my head, and after listening to it, I thought of this chapter. And if you like adrenaline… then, I hope you like it!
Disclaimer: I only own Kim and anyone else that is not in the show. I don't own Cyberchase that comes out with a new season in November. I also don't own any of the songs.

Chapter 5
"I can't believe that the boss is making me mentor his daughter." Kim said as she walked down the halls from the girls' locker room to the lobby.
"Well, in his defense, you are the only female worker here that actually can handle a wrench." Her friend Martha said walking beside her.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Kim asked.
"Well, I can handle a wrench, but…" Martha started. "Kim, you're a grease monkey. No offense."
"I've been around machines most of my life, so none taken." Kim said. " So when is she supposed to come in?"
"It's nine o'clock now, I'd say that you have about thirty minutes." Martha said as they arrived to the lobby.
Kim moaned in annoyance. "She doesn't even like this place, so why does the boss think that she will like working here?"
"Who knows what he was thinking." Martha said.
"I mean, she would much rather do your job." Kim said.
Martha works at the front desk in the lobby. With her being sixteen, Kim sometimes sees her as an older sister. She could always run to her with any girl related problems that her best friend, Slider would never understand.
"Hey, my job is harder than it looks." Martha said checking Kim in. "And besides, you only have to work with her until noon."
"Yeah, three hours of hell." Kim said before leaving.
"Have a nice day, Kim." Martha said sarcastically as she went through the door to the garage.
Once Kim entered the large room, she walked to the second garage door that was in the room and opened it. The room had four garage doors, so there are four stations. She'd like to think that this was all of the building, because she sees this part of the building every time she's here, but really, there is an elevator for the four identical rooms above her. So, there are actually twenty stations. Her other friend, Markus works in station #3, next to her.
"Morning, Kim. Congratulations on the raise." he said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Thanks for reminding me what the bright side is, Markus." she said back to him.
Markus is eighteen years old, despite being six years older than her they can see eye to eye when it comes to the opposite sex, but unlike Martha, Kim doesn't really consider him as an older sibling.
"Hope you like having a new female employee." Kim said.
"Shit." He said realizing whom she meant. "Sarah."
"I really do hate this." Kim said.
"So when is she coming in?"
"In about thirty minutes."
"Thirty minutes of freedom."
"Yeah, pretty much." A cybercoop came into Kim's garage. "Talk to you later, Markus" she said before running off to do her job.
Thirty minutes later…
"Yuck, I can't believe my father actually wants me to work here."
Kim poked her head out from the coop she was working on.
"Aw crap." she pulled herself out of the engine and walked over to the blue haired girl in a pink jumpsuit.
"Hi, you must be the boss's daughter, Sarah." she sucked up as she stuck her dirty, greasy hand out.
"And you must be Kim." The girl said using her fingers to shake her wrist*.
Kim couldn't really blame her for doing that.
"So how long do I have to do... this?" Sarah said waving her hand to emphasize what she was talking about.
"Two and a half more hours." Kim said.
Sarah groaned at this. "I know I wish it was longer too." Kim said just to annoy her.
She had a plan for Sarah so she wouldn't bug her as much.
"But hey, you don't have to do that much. To get hands under the hood of a cybercoop, one must learn what is under the hood. So I have a cybercoop manuel and a nice little questionnaire packet for you, so just finish that and we'll start with the hands on stuff."
"That's it? Yes!" Sarah said holding out the yes as she walked over to the workbench where Kim set up everything.
Kim rolled her eyes before walking back to the coop she was working on.
Three and a half hours later…
Martha came out of the lobby on her way over to Kim; she took notice as she shut the hood of her last coop.
"Hey, Kim, how the princess?" She asked.
"Um... Not that bad actually. I had her do a packet." Kim said.
"The training one?"
"Yep."
"So, anyway, I-"
"Hey, Kim, do you have any nuts I can use for my last customer?" Markus interrupted.
"Oh yeah, let me go get them." she responded knowing the real reason why he came over to her.
Markus had a crush on Martha. And what's even better; is that Martha has a crush on him too, but neither of them will admit.
"Markus and Martha sittin' in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G." she sang to herself as she opened the drawer of her table that Sarah happened to be at.
Unfortunately for Kim, she overheard. "Who and who?" She asked as she looked up at the two. "She likes Markus."
"Yes... And why do you even care? I thought you already had a boyfriend?"
"What he doesn't know won't hurt him. But what does she have that I don't?" Sarah asked.
Kim just stayed silent; there was a lot she could compare against Sarah and Martha, but Kim wasn't looking to get fired today. She glared at the packet that she gave her; only the first three were done on the first page. Thankfully she was done for the day, so she wouldn't have to see Sarah for a couple weeks.
Kim walked back over to Markus and Martha with a handful of nuts.
"Here you go Markus." she said handing him the parts.
"Thanks, Kim." he said as he left.
Kim turned to Martha who was still starring at Markus.
"Martha!" she said. Her friend turned her attention back to Kim. "What were you going to tell me?"
"Oh yeah." Martha pulled a folded piece of paper from her back pocket. "I found this in your mailbox. I have know idea who put it there or when, but here."
"Thanks, Martha." Kim accepted it as she started walking out of the garage, ahead of Martha.
As the two walked down the hall, no conversation happened to come between them until they entered the locker room.
"So, what did you and Markus talk about?" Kim asked.
"Nothing much... Stuff, really." Martha said.
Kim paused for a little while. "You like him don't you?" Kim said.
"What? No! Why would I?" she replied.
"Because you do." Kim responded. "I can see sparks fly."
"Whatever, Kim. I don't have a thing for Markus."
"Yeah... you keep thinking that."
"Well, what about you and your friend Slider?"
"We're just friends, nothing more, nothing less."
"Uh-huh... you keep thinking that."
"Oh brother." Kim said as she opened her locker.
"Well, my break's over soon, I should get back to the lobby." Martha said. Although Kim has to work once every few weeks, Martha has the job all day, everyday it's open.
"Hey, Martha, do you remember what I said about a beautiful moment?" Kim asked.
"Yes." she replied.
"Use it." Kim said before she turned back to her locker.
Kim's face was red from working so hard, so it was hard to tell how well her cheek was. She changed back to her regular clothes, grabbed her bag, and shut her locker. But, Kim couldn't leave; she was too busy staring at the small microchip on her locker door. She pulled it off and shoved it in her bag.
As she exited the locker room and walked to her cybercoop, she realized that the chip was identical to the one she found in the mirror maze at R-Fair City. Kim got in her coop, tossing her bag in the seat next to her. She pulled out the note she received from Martha and opened it.
Thanks, Kim for fixing up my coop, maybe you aren't as pathetic as I thought you were... then again maybe not.
She couldn't believe it. He was right there, in the lobby, she could have seen him. Kim felt anger rush through her blood as she crumpled the note up and through it on the floor of the passenger's seat. But Kim smiled soon after she did, because she had cameras that catch everything. As much as she wanted to go home and check out whom her mystery stalker was, she had a schedule to keep.
'You're mine, asshole.' Kim thought as she took off to Sensible Flats.
For Kim's knowledge in technology and machinery, the manager of the gym asked her to install cameras for him, thus giving her a free membership as a reward. Kim hardly goes to the gym, unless she needed to relieve some stress, and did she had a lot of it.
To relieve her stress, Kim always would use the punching bags. With her hair in a ponytail and in her clothes she packed earlier, she was punching away at the bag that was hanging by chains. Kim could hear them rattle as she hit the bag with each thought.
'Why? Why me? Why must I suffer from nightmares? Why can't I remember what they are on my own? Why is it that people think Slider and I are more than friends? Martha, Digit... especially Digit. Who's next the rest of cybersquad? And speaking of them, what's up with them lately?' Kim felt someone's eyes on her. 'Then there is that DAMN STALKER!'
She took a few breaths to calm herself down, after she did, she turned around to see if anyone looked suspicious, but she saw a water bottle with a folded piece of paper taped to it on the ground near her.
Kim doesn't drink water that much because of what will happen when she comes in contact with it, so it wasn't hers. But it was for her and she knew it. Picking it up, she opened the top flap.
Punch that thing any harder and you might have to pay for it. But that will only happen if it breaks. And when you break, Kim, I'll make sure you pay for it. With your life.
Kim punched the bag again, although she hit it with anger, a part of her was starting to get scared. As much as she hated to admit it, she was afraid to be out in the open. Kim was a sitting duck and it was hunting season.
She pulled the note off the bottle and walked out of the gym, tossing the water bottle in the trash. After changing back into her regular clothes again, she sped walked all the way to the store across the street.
It was a parts store, and if you wanted something, you have to order it. Kim walked into the store and up to the counter.
"Hi, I'm here to pick up a something." she said to the guy behind the counter.
"Name?" he asked.
"Kim."
The guy typed on his computer and then walked into the backroom. He soon came out with a small package and gave it to her. She had already prepaid for her part, so she just said, "Thank you" and walked out.
Quickly walking back to her coop, she got in and put her package in her bag and took off really fast.
Kim pulled the note out of her bag and read it over and over again. It was a threat. A threat that terrified Kim more than anything. As a reaction she turned on the radio, it calms her down. For some reason she always listens to the radio. It's odd, but she has been doing it since she was at least nine.
After tuning to a station, Kim turned back to her threat note.
"You know what, that's it! I'm calling Slider!" Kim reached for her bag to pull out her sqwak pad.
"And we're back, my fellow listeners. This next one is a shout out from Kim's friend." the DJ said.
Kim jerked her head to the radio.
"Hope you enjoy." said the DJ before the next song came on.
'Got a secret, can you keep it, swear this one you'll save,
Better lock it, in your pocket, taking this one to the grave,
If I show you, then I know you won't tell what I said,
Cause two can keep a secret if one of them is dead,'*
Kim froze, breathing very slowly. Her sqwak pad vibrated from inside her bag, it snapped her back into reality as she reached inside of her bag to pick it up.
You can't play cat and mouse with three people, so let's just keep this between us, shall we? Enjoy the song, my sweet, little bitch.
Kim felt her heart pound against her chest; she was in a battle of life and death. Alone, all by herself, and if she wasn't careful she would pay the ultimate price.
Kim sat back in her seat, as she looked around very carefully.
'What am I doing, I shouldn't be scared of this guy. I'm not afraid of anything, so why am I letting him push me around. I already have him on camera, and once I see him… He will regret following me.' She thought as she ripped the note in half, letting it drop to the floor of her seat.
Kim stepped on the gas and flew to cybersite Mallopolis.
It didn't take long for Kim to purchase the milk she needed; in fact it took longer just to find a parking spot. Although, going there at five in the morning versus three in the afternoon could be why. Walking past all of the stores in the huge mall, Kim made her way to the first floor because apparently, someone had a good idea of putting the groceries on the third floor. Kim stopped at the water fountains on the first floor and sat at one of the benches surrounding it. A quick break from walking around the mall.
"May I sit down?" someone asked.
Kim quickly turned around, there was an old female penguin standing behind her.
"Yes, you may." Kim responded.
"A caring and respectful young girl we have here. I can see why Motherboard wanted you to join the cybersquad." The penguin said as she sat down next to her.
"Thank you. Wait, you know who I am?" Kim asked.
"Of course I do, dearie. You are Kim, the determined, troubled new member of the cybersquad." The old penguin said.
"Determined and troubled is right, but how did you know that?" Kim asked her.
"Oh, you probably don't remember me, sweetie, but I first met you when you were only six years old. I believe that good man, Dr. Marbles said something about you coming from another world." She explained.
"Um… let me think… uh… Evelyn*, right?" Kim said.
"Yes, sweetie that's me."
"Oh yeah, Dr. Marbles took me to Penguia when he showed around Cyberspace. You were the one who made hot chocolate." Kim remembered. "Sorry, my memory is just a bit…"
"Hazy?" Evelyn finished.
Kim nodded.
"Don't you worry, sweetie, it will come back. I can tell."
"How can you tell?" Kim asked.
"I'm a physic, dear. Why do you think Dr. Marbles came to me? He wanted advice on what he should do with you. For the fist five seconds I saw you, I could tell that you were a bright and innocent girl. You were going to help bring Cyberspace to peace."
"Your physic? What else did you see about me?"
Evelyn paused for a minute. "Dark. I saw a dark change for you. It caused you to act out and would fill your eyes with guilt."
"Guilt?" Kim said worriedly.
"Yes, dear. And when your light came, it made you forget, and you came out troubled. The things you do now may be bad, but I know that they are for the good of Cyberspace and for Motherboard."
"They are, but what happened to me? Please, I want to know." Kim begged.
"Listen to your sixth sense, and watch your eyes, for it will link to your future with surprise." Evelyn said.
"My future? What about my future?" Kim asked.
Evelyn paused again. "When determined and alone, you will find yourself back at home. You find some things that will amaze you, and then a friend will help pull yourself out of the shocking blue. To add to that, you help heroes for their own good, while you are still hiding secrets under your hood. A ledge is where you'll stand between heaven and hell, until you cheat with no one to tell."
"What does that all mean, Evelyn?"
"You'll find out, dearie. You like poetry, don't you?" she responded.
"I do, but… I just… I don't…" Kim stuttered.
"Don't be so hard on yourself, Kim. You're always tense." Evelyn said as she pat her back. "You better get going, sweetie. Those other good kids will want to be picked up soon." Kim felt her sqwak vibrate in her bag.
"Thank you." Kim said as she hugged the old penguin. "For everything."
"You're welcome, dearie. Run along, now." Evelyn said as she released Kim.
The blonde picked up the milk she bought as walked away from her old friend.
Meanwhile…. At the Cybrary…
"Hey, I just messaged Kim. She should be here soon." Jackie said to Matt and Inez who were shelving the last of the books.
"Great, Matt and I just finished." Inez said back. "So now what?"
"We take a break." said Matt who was exhausted. The girls rolled their eyes, but they had to agree with him, they worked hard all day. They just stood in silence for a few minutes. "Hey, what do you guys think Kim had to do all day?"
"It's Kim, what didn't she do." Inez said.
"What didn't I do?"
The cybersquad jumped as Kim appeared around the corner, but mostly Inez. Although, Kim just so happened to appear right behind her.
"Kim, how did you get here so fast?" Jackie asked.
'I was being followed.'— "I was on my way here already." Kim said. "Anyway, I'm just going to grab a book and then we'll be on our way back to Control Central. You guys can just do what ever until then, okay?"
The three nodded before walking away.
"Hey, Inez." Kim grabbed Inez's arm. The nine-year old turned around very quickly. "Are you okay, you've been a bit quiet lately?"
"I'm- I'm fine." she responded. Although, she seemed to be taken aback by Kim.
"You're not sick or anything are you?" Kim asked as she put a hand on her forehead.
Inez quickly drew back. "I'm fine, really."
"Okay, do you need to go anywhere really quick." Kim asked.
"Not really, but is there a book on how to work a microfilm? There's one back on Earth and I really want to use it."
"Um… I believe there is a 'how to' section on the 9th floor. I'm on my way to the 10th floor, I'll take you there." Kim said as she started walking to one of the cybercarts. Inez followed, but it wasn't long before Kim felt like someone else was following her. Someone she didn't want.
After Kim dropped off Inez on the 9th floor, Kim made her way to the 10th. There were only two sections where Kim was headed: The technology section and the parenting section. She was looking for a certain book, and with luck she found it.
"Got'chya," Kim said to herself as she reached up on the shelf to grab it. ''When Kids Act Out', this should have some answers.' She couldn't help herself, the cybersquad was acting out. 'Now I'll just check this out and- twelve o' clock!' Thanks to her sixth sense, Kim reached above her head with one hand and caught a book, one on microchips that just so happened to have a sticky note poking out of it.
Kim opened it to the page. There was a picture of an enlarged microchip that looked similar to the one she found in R-Fair City and in Gollywood.
Name: Tec-block chip
Description: When placed on or near a power source the chip can take out the power and or electricity of what ever is closest to it. Also has the power to take control of the power of what ever it's on or near.
While reading more about the chip she saw that someone has written in it to check the last page. Doing so, she found another sticky note.
You're so stupid, sweetheart. Don't you know that I'll drag you to HELL before you ever see who I am? And you thought you had my ass. Think again bitch, you're still mine!
She took the sticky note out and stared at it. This guy was smarter than she thought. Kim shoved the note in her back pocket and closed the book, quickly walking off with the book she wanted to check out. After she did, Kim shoved the book in her bag and quickly walked back to the cybercrats.
"Kim?" She turned around quickly and saw Jackie standing behind her. "You leaving?"
"Yeah, I am. How did you find me?" Kim asked.
"You like technology, so I kind of figured."
"True, so anything new lately?" Kim asked as she got in the cybercart.
"No, not really." Jackie responded as she sat on the other side of the seat.
"Hey, you okay, you sound upset?" Kim asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Jackie said.
"Is there something on your mind?"
"No." she said blankly.
"Okay… well, Inez is one floor down from us, so we might as well pick her up first." Kim said as she drove out of the 10th floor. It didn't take long to find Inez; she was by the Cybrary's microfilm. Inez took notice and climbed in the cart.
"Alright, lets go pick up Matt." Kim said. "Do you girls know where he is?" Kim hesitated and looked at the girls as they all said, "Greek Mythology*." Which is on the 15th floor. Once they got there they decided to split up to find him.
After splitting up to look for Matt, Kim found him reading by the Trojan horse.
"Found you." Kim came up from behind him and he jumped a little as he turned around.
"Geez, Kim. You're really good at jump scares." He said.
"Thank you. So, are you ready to go?" Kim asked.
"I've been ready." He responded.
"Well then come on. We're leaving."
Matt closed the book he was reading and stood up as he grunted. Kim quickly took notice.
"Matt, you okay?" She asked him.
"I'm fine." He responded, getting to his feet.
"Really? You look hurt. Do you need help?"
"Really, Kim. I'm fine." Matt said. "Let's just find Nezzie and Jacks and go home."
Kim nodded in agreement. She didn't want to be out in the open any longer. Luckily, it didn't take long to find Inez and Jackie and leave the Cybrary.
So, there they were on there way back to Control Central, in the same spots they were in at the start of the day: with Kim driving, Jackie in the passengers seat next to her, Matt behind Kim in the backseat, Inez next to him, and no conversation turning up with the radio softly playing.
Kim was focused and relaxed, waiting for a message on her sqwak or something to tell her what else her mystery person knew about her.
It was about half way through the song 'Cold as You' by Taylor Swift when Matt noticed that Kim's eyes in the review mirror were a very pale shade of blue. He elbowed Inez in the arm, then mouthed 'the mirror' after she looked at him with a questionable look. Inez glared at the review mirror and saw Kim's pale blue eyes. Kim didn't even notice her eyes were that color, and it seemed like she doesn't even know.
When the song ended, the radio started to play 'Before He Cheats' by Carrie Underwood, and when the song changed so did Kim's eyes, to a very dark shade of blue. Matt and Inez glared at each other and back at the mirror, they couldn't believe it. Matt wanted to bring it up, but Inez elbowed him in the arm, like he did to her. He looked at her and she shook her head, Matt could tell that she wanted to bring it up too, but she was right. Kim had enough to deal with; she didn't need any more trouble. Little did they know what kind of trouble Kim was actually into.
The rest of the songs that played during the drive, Kim's eyes were normal. It was only those two songs that her eyes were different colors. Once they got back to Control Central, Kim opened a portal and sent the kids home. She was on her way back to her room when her sqwak vibrated in her bag and she pulled it out.
I hope you had fun today, Kim, because I did. I just love the way you squirm. Don't worry, I'll see you again, but you won't.
"Kim?"
She snapped out of her daze.
"Are you alright, Kim? Motherboard asked.
"I'm- I'm fine, Motherboard." Kim assured her before she walked out.
One hour later...
Kim was half way through the book she got at the Cybrary, still no luck with why the kids are acting out. With another turn of the page, Kim found something that would help.
If your kids aren't telling you something, it's not your fault. Children will want to take care of it themselves, and sometimes they won't even tell their friends. They will assure you that they are fine if you ask them, so don't feel bad if they don't tell you.
"That helps." Kim said to herself. "Doesn't tell me why they're acting out, though."
After some thought, Kim stood up from sitting on her couch and walked to her bedroom. She pulled a box down from a shelf and put it on the bed. Kim took the lid of the box and looked inside.
"If they aren't going to tell me, I'm going to have to find out for myself."
Three hours later….
It was normal for Kim to have a nightmare that she can't remember, but the one she was having wasn't really a nightmare.
"I don't know what you're accusing her of Lucky, but I know she would never do something like that." Dr. Marbles said to her.
"I wish that I could look the other way, but a crime is a crime." Lucky said.
Kim was sitting inside Lucky's coop, curled up in a ball, eavesdropping on the conversation. It was late, around seven o'clock when Lucky showed up. Kim thought about going to her about what happened, but she couldn't, she was still broken over… the incident that was last week.
"Lucky, she's only eight and she was here last night. I see no possible way she would have been in R-Fair City."
"Doc, her name was in the seat. If you'd like you can come down to the station, all we're going to do is ask her a few questions."
Kim saw Lucky make her way to the coop and climb in. She wanted to run away, but the doors were locked, and even if they weren't, it would just make her look guilty if she tried to run.
She heard the coop start and she looked back at the doc, eyes pleading for help, as Lucky took off.
Thirty minutes later...
Kim was sitting in a cold, metal chair in a small, gray room. She's been still for the past five minutes, her hands folded on the table as she stared at them, waiting for someone to come in. As if she wasn't in scared before, she jumped when she heard the door open and a tall guy came in. He sat down in the chair across from her.
Kim glared at him then back down at her hands.
"Hi, Kim. My name is Randy, I work here at the police station." Kim kept her head down. "Kim, how old are you?"
"Eight." she responded not looking up.
"Good, that's good. Can you tell me where you were last night?
"Control Central."
"What were you doing?"
"I was in my room, getting ready for bed."
"Did you do anything before you went to bed?"
"I drank Nyquil."
"Why would you do that?"
"It's… hard for me to go to sleep."
"Why?"
Kim closed her eyes; all the pain and torture came back. She shuttered as she opened her eyes. "It just is."
"Did you go to R-Fair City at all?"
"No."
"Did you wake up in the middle of the night and go?"
"No, R-Fair City is a bad place. I wouldn't go alone, no one should go alone."
"What makes you say that?"
"I had my… experiences."
"What kind of experiences?"
Kim finally looked up. "Why do you even care?"
"Your name was carved in a cybercoop seat, that's not all that happened to the coop."
"What are you trying to say?"
"What I'm saying, Kim, is that you're the only 'Kim' the owner of the coop knows, so you are looking like the guilty party."
"I'm only eight, why would I do something like that."
"Revenge maybe."
"But I wouldn't. I'd- I'd never do something like that." Kim was getting scared, doing her best not to cry.
"Kim." Randy tried to reach for Kim's hands, but she slowly drew them back into her lap once in contact. "If you think that you're going to get in trouble…"
"You think I'm guilty?" Kim interrupted. She could feel something warm slide down the side of her face.
"The evidence points to you. I don't see how it's not you."
"But I didn't do it."
"It's okay if you did. Children tend to do things like this."
"I didn't do it!" Kim yelled as the fountain of tears came down her face. "I didn't do it." Kim put her arms on the table and buried her head in them as she cried.
It didn't take long for Randy to leave. It wasn't until a minute later when she heard the door open again.
"Kim?" It was Dr. Marbles. She lifted her head to look at him.
"Can we go home?" she quivered.
"Yes we can." The doc held out his hand. Kim accepted it as she stood up and the two left together.
When they got to the parking lot Lucky came out to tell Dr. Marbles that he needed to fill out some paper work for Kim. So he gave Kim the keys to the cybercoop and told her to lock the doors once she got in. She nodded and walked off.
Kim was about to get in the coop when she heard two people fighting: a boy and a girl, early teens. She was able to catch a lot of information on what was happening.
The guy, Nick, cheated on his girlfriend, Abigail, and she caught him. The two were yelling at each other and it got to the point when Nick slapped Abigail across the face and she ran off in tears.
Kim felt the pain when he slapped her. She saw it all, and saw everything, including the license plate number for Nick's cybercoop.
Two weeks later...
Standing at the old well in the dark in Radopolis, Kim looked at the bat with five names on it: Kim, Abigail, Claire, Ally, and Mara. The bat she used to get the revenge that she and the others needed. She couldn't risk someone finding it. She cut it close when Lucky asked to show her the camera in Kim's bedroom the night during the fifth vandalism with Mara's name carved in the cybercoop seat. Using what she knew about computers, she was able to make a false video proving her innocence to Lucky. Apparently she thought Kim was guilty of all of the vandalisms.
With the bat in hand, she used her strength to hit it against a rock with a sharp edge. Since it was made of wood, it broke within the first five hits. With the broken bat she took the pieces and dropped them down the well. She then picked up a black ski mask and jumpsuit and threw them down as well. Picking up a small can of kerosene, she dumped all of it out then dropped the can as well.
Kim took a lot of time planning for this, lucky for her there was a storm to help cover her tracks. One with heavy rain, strong winds, thunder, and lightning. She could hear the thunder come closer as she pulled out a small stack of papers and a match. Kim used the stone base of the well to light the match and she brought it to the papers. She let the fire burn though a third of it before dropping it all in the well.
Watching it fall and seeing the light come from the bottom start getting bigger. A high-pitched chuckle escaped from her mouth as she started walking away back to her coop.
Everything was perfect. Any evidence that pointed to her was turning into ashes, the rain with the wind will help put the fire out, and if the fire gets to big and burns the well, we can blame it all on the lightning. Kim was done with the guilt, the incident, everything. It was time to finally forget.
Forget everything.
