Chloe: Omg! You made the Shadow Todd Banks?
Me: Yup. Why not?
Chloe: Because the guy is mad!
Me: *giggles* I know. He's perfect.
Chloe: You're on your own head.
Chloe's POV.
Somehow we all ended sitting in the bedroom. I next to Derek on my bed. He hadn't let go of me since Toad Banks went away. Amber, Megan and Aunt Lauren joined us. I told them what had happened.
"His job?" Amber asked. "What does he mean?"
"H-he believes that it's his job to end all the people who were in the experement," I said.
"Why?" She glanced at Peter. I knew what she was thinking. She was worried Peter was in danger. Truth was we were. We all were.
"He went mad," Derek told her. "He went crazy over his nephew's."
"But why was he apearing as a cloud? And why so far has he only tried to kill Chloe?"
"Are you not listening?" Tori snapped. "The guy is coo-coo. He's tried to take over Chloe's body once, but when he realized that wasn't happening, he settled for trying to kill her; then he'll go after us," Tori spun her finger around in a circle hear her head, "Like I said. Coo. Coo."
"But the last time we saw him, he wasn't this powerful," Simon mused. "He could only just manage some things. Must be working with someone."
"I think I know who," I said quietly. "I get the feeling of someone else..."
"Who?" Everyone asked at once.
I looked down. "...Tori's mom..."
"What the fu-" Tori fummed.
"Hey!" Amber covered Megan's ears. "Minor over here."
"Sorry, but my mum is a witch. With a capital B," Tori grumbled. "This is so like her! Trying to kill us after she died. God! She just never goes away!"
I saw hate in Tori's eyes but I also saw a little pain. When she was me watching her, she smiled slightly but her eyes stayed the same.
"What do we do?" Peter asked. "How do we get rid of them?"
"Tori's mom will be easier, but Dr. Banks...What'll be harder," I yawned. "H-h-he'll c-come back."
"We should move on," Kit said. "We've been here too long. We'll move tomorrow morning then dicide what to do. Lauren? Can we...?"
"Oh, right," Aunt Lauren nodded. "We'll be in the living room." She kissed my head and her and Kit left.
"What are they up to?" Tori narrowed her eyes after them.
"They're trying to find people who will be on our side," Derek said. "Dad knows a few friends but he doesn't know who he can trust now."
"How did-? Oh," Tori rolled her eyes. "You super hearing. Which reminds me, never listen to my private convocations."
"Or what?" Derek asked amused.
"Or I'll pull of your ears," Tori warned. "Don't try me wolfie."
"One day I might."
"Bring it."
I looked at Simon and we both burst out laughing. I doubled over, laughing hard. I got two glares. One from Tori and one from Derek. Simon got the same. Amber and Megan joined in laughing.
Something about Tori's and Dereks mini-argument was funny. I leaned my head back onto Derek's chest.
"Amberrrrrrrr?" Megan asked. "Can we go for a walk? I been inside all day," she ran her hand through her curls. "I've beeeeeeen inside alllll day! I need air!"
"Okay. Come on," Amber stood up.
"Can Chloe come?" Megan's face lit up. "Pretty, pretty pleeease?"
"Sure kido," Amber smiled. "What you say, Chloe?"
"I'd love to," I smiled. I felt Derek tense. "Don't worry," I whispered. "I can feel Liz and Eric here. And Larisa."
"I'm coming with you," he said. His face was set. No arguing. I sighed and nodded.
Outside I walked hand-in-hand with Megan and Megan held Amber's hand. My other hand was around Derek's wait, his was around mine. We walked in silence, not going anywhere in particular.
"Oh look!" Megan jumped up and down, pointing at a butterfly. "Oh. Sooooo pwetty. Can we catch it?"
Amber laughed. "You can try."
Megan shot off and jumped up and down. Her hand reaching out.
"I-want-pwetty-butterfly!" she breathed. "Here, here!"
I laughed.
"Ohhh. What's down here?" Megan had run off near the woods.
"Megan, don't!"
She disapeared into the tree's. Derek ran after her. Megan's scream egoed through the air. Amber and I looked at each other then chased after Derek.
"Oh no, oh no," Amber breathed.
We came to a stop when we saw Megan lying at the floor. Derek was no where to be seen.
