Chapter 4
***Arabella's Pov.***
The quartet and I walked deep into the forest while looking around the place. It was just..wow! I felt someone staring at me, I shifted my head to see Seth smirking. I whipped my head back, he chuckled a little. My face heated up for the second time today and I even felt a tingling, fluttering sensation in my stomach.
Seth stopped when his device started beeping off the hooked at a round glowing pinkish bluish slimy looking blob. "Sara! It's here!"
Sara came up along with Jack and she took off a necklace with a silver looking pendant hanging off the end. She placed it onto of the blob and pressed it and the pendant lit up. Then Sara reached her hand into the blob and retreated out pulling out a small black device. She smiled.
"What is it?" I curiously asked.
"This is what we came for Arabella Gilbert." Sara replied.
"Is anyone else looking for it?" Jack asked. The twins looked at him. "Say the person who trashed everything upstairs?"
Seth nodded. "We think so. It is very valuable. Which is why it is vital we locate it first."
"What makes you so sure that whoever else is looking for it, isn't still looking for it?" Jack asked.
Seth gave him a puzzled expression.
A loud bang sounded the room, another bang sounded seconds later. We crouched to the ground. Jack raised his pointer finger up and did a hush motion and we slowly started to crawl away from the sound till we stopped when we heard loud and heavy footsteps from around us. The twins and I turned and looked behind us to see what the sound was.
The rustling of the twigs, leaves and branching keeps getting louder and louder as the sound of the person keeps coming closer and closer.
"Run! Run! Run!" Jack shouted.
We did as told. Seth grabbed my hand and we bee lined in the direction to the door leading out of here.
Jack picked up a big branch and tried whacking the person but ended up getting punched instead.
"Ugh!" Jack cried.
"Get down." Seth whispered pulling us down behind another bush Jack came and crouched with us.
Boom! Another loud noise sounded sending Seth flying back to the ground.
My breathing picked up nervously as I saw the shadow of the person coming this way. The twins and I ran off.
"Jack Bruno!" Sara yelled.
"Kids!" I heard Jack yell back.
Suddenly one of the blobs hanging from the ceiling caught fire and exploded with flames and sparks flying. I felt Seth place his hand onto my back.
"Go! Go! Go! Go!" Seth screamed.
As we ran, blobs exploded everywhere. The device Sara had was suddenly knocked out and landed not to far from her. She went and picked it up and then was lifted up by her shirt by the person that looks like a Transformer.
"Seth!" Sara cried.
"Hey, put her down!" I snapped.
The Transformer guy faced us, instead of doing so, it knocked Seth sending him backwards.
"That's it." I thought feeling my eyes glow and my powers build up before a loud scream left my lips and thrusted my hands out. A gust of strong wind blew and sent the Transformer guy flying to the back of the room and I heard a, bang! Probably hit the back wall and got knocked out or something. Or worse but who knows.
I went over and helped Sara up. She gave me a look.
"What?" I asked.
"Your not human." Sara said.
"Well uh, yes and no. Its a long story. You know I can say the same for you and your brother." I said.
Sara was about to say something when we heard the same heavy footsteps from the back of the room. We shared a scared expression.
"Lets talk about this later when were not being targeted." I said.
She agreed and we ran over and help Seth to his feet.
"Oh dear." Sara mumbled.
"What is it?" Seth asked.
Sara looked at her brother with a sad expression. "The device."
The Transformer guy popped from the trees with the device in hand, Sara used her powers and the device flew into her clutch. Jack came out of nowhere and pulled the guy into a headlock.
Jack threw the Transformer guy off. I turned and looked at one of the blob balls and used my powers to send the blobs flying right at it and it flew straight into a tree then to the ground.
Jack got up from the groin and grabbed Sara. Seth wrapped his arm around my shoulders keeping me to him as we ran.
"Come on! We gotta go!" Jack yelled.
Avoiding explosions, we made it to the doorway. Jack opened the door and he and Sara went in. I went in then Seth.
Seth slowly started to close the heavy door and I noticed a bright light. It did not look pretty either. My eyes widened as it was approaching.
I shouted, "Seth move!"
The door exploded and Seth flung back into a wall. I flew back and landed onto the floor.
"Seth!" Sara cried.
Jack ran over and picked him up firemen style. He started to run while Sara watched his unconscious brother worriedly. I grabbed her hand.
"Come on. He's going to be alright. I assured her.
She nodded and we both went to catch up.
We ran out of the refrigerator, Sara turned and started shutting the door, I helped her shut it all the way. We jumped in fright as a bang sounded and the door shook violently.
Jack used his foot to kick the door down. We dodged the flames shooting up from the ground.
I sprinted to the cab and opened the door to the backseat, Jack placed him in. I got in and Sara got in on the other side and we both pulled him up to a sitting position and I put his seat belt on.
Jack turned the ignition on and the cab hauled off from the burning shack. I shifted my head to Sara and she was leaning her head on her elbow with a worry look on her face, her hair and face all messed messy from the chaos.
I looked down at my outfit to see dirt spots on my shirt and pants, cuts on my hand and o can feel one on the side of my forehead.
I knew she was still worried about her brother. I shifted my gaze to Seth, his eyes close, his hair a bit more spiky with beads of sweat rolling down his face and had a couple of scratches. I brushed some of his hair away from his forehead before leaning back rested my eyes. Sleep took over me within minutes.
