Skylar POV

Staying with Amelia, Jack, and Annie is pretty hectic. Amelia and Jake certainly have their hands full, but I'm glad I can help out while I'm there.

I have been here for around 2 weeks. It's nice not having to go to Catco everyday, but I do miss it.

Snapper sends me a couple small assignments for the Catco website while I'm gone. I enjoy doing that, it makes me feel like I am being productive.

Yesterday, my eyes turned a bright blue. Amelia noticed. I was sad at the time. I am pretty sure I'm developing a new power or something.

Right now, Amelia is dropping Annie at daycare for the day so we can hang out together.

I walk into Amelia's office to look for some paper. I notice some weird plant-like thing with goop. I walk over to it to see what it is.

"What the hell..." I gasp, clearly weirded out.

I hear a noise from the ceiling. I turn around to see a weird large insect hurdling towards me.

I scream in fright.

Then everything goes black.

Amelia's POV

"Skylar? Where are you?" I shout through the house.

I look in the guest bedroom, bathroom, and Annie's room. I can't seem to find her.

I turn towards the office, which is dark. I go in, looking around the room.

I gasp when I see Skylar passed out on the floor with a monster-like creature on top of her.

"Skylar?! Are you okay?" I try to yell to wake her up.

I notice her phone on the desk next to her.

I pick it up, pressing Kara's contact to call her.

No answer.

"Oh god..." I say to myself.

I don't see any other contacts I recognize. Except one.

Winn Schott.

I press the call button. Skylar would not like this.

"Skylar?" Winn answers in disbelief.

"Oh thank god, Winn! You picked up." A pinch of relief goes through my body.

"Amelia? What's wrong?" Winn nervously asks. I can hear two voices in the background.

"There is some kind of monster on Skylar! I don't know what to do!" I quickly speak.
