She nods her head, "Okay."

"Do you want to come?" I ask her.

She shakes her head, "I'll be fine here."

"Go back to bed," I say. "I know you didn't sleep worth a damn last night. Get some rest and when you wake up I'll have food for you."

"Okay," she smiles. "Thank you."

I nod my head and I stand up from her bed. I walk downstairs to see everybody sitting on the couch, watching tv.

"Morning," Edwin says.

"Good morning."

"How is she?" Austin asks me.

I shrug my shoulders, "Not good at all. I can tell she is trying to be brave, but she's slowly breaking."

"Does anyone want to take another road trip to New York, so I can get my fair punches on the guy?" Zion asks.

I chuckle, "I'm down to hit him again." I sit down next to Brandon on the couch and I look over at Izzy, "Can you pause this?" She pauses the tv and I look at everyone. "I was talking to Addison this morning and she told me something that Hardin told her."

"I'll kill him," Edwin says.

"Chill," I say. "You don't even know what I'm about to tell you."

"Go on then," Brandon says. I honestly hate the fact that Brandon is growing on me, but a certain someone has taught me to give second chances. Even third ones, so I'm down to forgive him and we have been getting along really well.

"He told her 'Mordu."

"No he didn't," Zion says.

"Wait, what?" Izzy asks. "He told her that when?"

"Yesterday. He called her after I beat him up to basically tell on me. Right as they were about to hang up he told her to tell me that. Addison didn't know what it was, so that's why he told her to tell me."

"It's like he was too scared to say it to your face," Zion says.

"Or he just wanted to use Addison for something one last time," I say. "He's going to attack us soon and I don't understand why."

"Is anyone associated with him?" Edwin asks.

"No," Zion says. "I didn't even know that he was in a gang."

"I didn't either," I say. "Addison didn't know either."

"I'm not associated with him," Brandon says. "I try to stay out of other shit unless I'm forced to do it, of course."

"I have no idea," Izzy says. "But he always has looked like someone I know."

"Who?" I ask.

"Sasha," she says. "I have always thought that they have looked alike."

"They could be siblings," I say.

"That is because they are." I turn around to see Elom standing there, eating an apple. This child always comes in at weird times.

"How the hell do you know that?" Zion asks.

"Because I had to work with her to fake my death," he says. "Hardin was always there helping her too."

"So why didn't you say anything to us when you saw Hardin here two weeks ago?"

"I didn't even know he was here," Elom explains, "I'm always in my room or out with Becca." That's his girlfriend. "I didn't know who he was when you guys said his name. He could have been anyone."
