Chapter 4: Night Visitors

The night was clam, and I was finally asleep.

It was nice, but I had a awful headache.

I was thinking way too much about this.

If the others are somewhere in the house, I think I should able to find them easily?

On my mind was were only a few thoughts on where the last of them could be.

9 was going to be hard to find, the best place I could think of was the sale closest.

My mom likes to make a lot of sales online, it makes it easier to make money that way, well, that how I think of it.

8 would be with 1, so they might be where we keep all of our outdoor stuff.

7, she was going to be difficult to find.

I know she was…Please let me find her fast.

I felt someone jumping on my face.

I felt a little bit of the sun's rays on me.

"3! 4! What you doing?!"

I woke up to 2's voice, which surprised me that 3 and 4 were pulling on my hair.

This was new to them, in their world, they don't see humans with hair.

But…this was hurting my head.

"That hur-ow!"

3 and 4 let go, I didn't like that, I always thought people with long hair had it worst, but I had short hair and that hurt a lot.

I won't think that way anymore.

But, somehow…I felt like I was becoming someone then acting.

I wasn't acting, it was me off the stage.

"Penny for your thoughts?"

5 was on top of my CD holder.

I had a lot of music, but, I like Japanese music, it was fun to dance to.

"There nothing really to talk about."

"Sorry…it just…you look like you went though a lot. You look pale then the humans I see before."

So they used to have humans in their world.

5 was right, I did look pale. Guess I was worried about finding 7.

I felt my chest tighten, was I having another panic attack?!

No, I can't let them see me like this.

I didn't want them to worry about me.

I left my room to get some air.

I headed to the bathroom, I was planning to wash my hands, it sort relax me a little, strange huh?

But, it was that feeling again, the world still wait for me to come out of the house.

"You're not well…."

I jump a little realizing 6 was on my shoulder.

"God 6, you scared me…"

I didn't feel him getting on me, which was weird.

"It nothing, am just worried…that all."

I knew that part was true, but, I had a feeling that 6 didn't come with me was just a coincident.

I thought he want to explore my house a little more.

"Umm…I have this feeling that you don't like staying in my room?"

6 nodded no to me.

"Is it…that you want to find this source?"

He nodded yes this time.

"Alright, but 6, I can't let anyone see you. It really cute that yo-I can't explain this to my family so easily…they'll think am crazy."

As much as I want them to see the rest of the house.

They'll think am insane or something.

I really felt safer if they stayed in my room.

"I was…afraid that you might get hurt…"

He was scared I was going to hurt myself?

I guess it would be fair since I saved him yesterday.

"How about this, tonight, I'll take you and the other around the house. But, you must stay in eyesight for me. Okay?"

He nodded yes to me, I bent down to give him a small kiss.

He jump a little, it was a bit cute.

I waited for my family to be asleep, I knew for a fact that my little brother was going to keep my older one up all night.

It was good to be the middle child, plus I was the only sister my brothers will ever have.

"Let start with…the living room."

I showed the them the living room, it was one of the rooms that was clam and it was like a meeting room to the family.

3 and 4 look the TV.

When I first saw it, I thought it was going to eat the room up.

I laugh a little at them, they look so cute.

2 was on my grandma's table, 5 was with him.

He was like a little kid with his mom inside of store.

"I can't believe this place is so…so…"

"Well, it big to you, but it sort of small to me."

Which was true, the house was small to me.

But, it wasn't the place I was born in.

"Hey, Lulu, what in there?"

"Oh, that my grandma's room."

One of the many rooms am scared of.

I didn't believe my grandma was a morning.

"What ion that box?"

"Oh, that my dog, it would better if you stay away from him."

6 was in my mom's sit, I hope she doesn't see him there in the morning.

"Okay, now th-OW!"

I felt something stab me in the foot.

Did a mouse bite me or something?

I took a look at my foot, it was bleeding a little bit.

"Lulu!"

I heard 6 panicking.

I guess he never seen blood before either.

"6!"

I heard someone with a female voice.

I was so sure it was 7.

"7!?"

"I don't believe it!"

I was right, it was 7.

Why did she stab me in the foot?!

I took 7 and the other back to my room, guess the tour of my house was over.

I couldn't blame 7 without knowing.

"Am sorry I hurt you. I thought you capture them?"

"No, I wouldn't do that."

But I was the one who was capture by reality.

Reality has it worst tricks on life, but it was tricking me the most of them all.

"7, Lulu here has been keeping us safe."

"Lulu?"

"Oh, her name is Llywellyn."

7 look at me like I was crazy to go by that name.

"Well, am sorry again Llywellyn. But, what were you doing with this human?"

She doesn't know am looking for them.

I only had tree left to find now.

I look at her, her helmet was hard to make out, I could tell it was some kind of bird at least.

"Wait, where 9?"

"We haven't seen him."

"9 stuck in some kind o-You probably know what it is?!"

If I knew what she was talking about, maybe she could explain this to me.

"What did this…thing look like?"

"Well, it look like…some kind of box…and it huge…."

"Hold on, I know what you're talking about."

I went downstairs to the fridgeater and open one of the door.

I saw 9, the poor guy was freezing.

I try to pick him up but he kept running from me.

I wasn't going to hurt him, well, 7 did stab me not too long ago.

How was I going to clam him down?

"9, am not going to hurt. It alright, the others are fine."

I was hoping that will clam him down a bit.

"You know where they are?"

"Yes…it alright, it fine…am human."

I let him get onto my hand.

9 was cold as ice.

It was hard to believe that this was real.

I was happy to find 9 finally.

Out of all the character, there was something that I like about 9.

I didn't know what it was that made me like him so much.

But, I felt like there was more to come then I thought it was.

Not as good I was hoping for, but, the chapter came out pretty okay. I think I was rushing on this chapter. I hope all of you like this chapter as much like these others. 9 BELONGS TO Shane Acker
