Your POV
"Did you tell them about the tracking device?" you asked Emma.
"How did you know?" Emma questioned you.
"I saw you looking behind Carols ear and saw the bump. I'm thinking that if we destroy the tracker, the demons and Mom will get alerted. We'll have to find a way to remove it without destroying it. We also have to train the kids so they'll be ready for the escape," you explained.
"Okay-" Ray started but got interrupted by Emma.
"Ho-how do you know all that?" she asked in shock.
"I thought about it for a while. Also, since I'm not allowed to play tag, I learned how to sew, code, and brew medicine for the escape. I'll try to find out how to make and use weapons from the books in the librar-" you were ranting about the things you needed to do until you fell unconscious.
"Y/n!" was the last this you heard.

Ray POV
'What happened?' I thought to myself. 'Why did she faint? Did she overwork herself? That must have been it.'
"We need to get her to the infirmary, so put her on my back," I said out loud. Both Emma and Norman nodded in agreement, each grabbing one of her arms and hoisting her onto my back. 'She'll be fine,' trying to assure myself, walking to the infirmary with Emma and Norman by my sides.
"What happened?" Mom asked.
"She fainted," Emma explained.
"Oh, she has been overworking herself recently," Mom said, laying her gently on the infirmary bed. "Don't worry, she'll be fine."

Your POV
"W-what happened?" you asked slightly dazed.
"Y/n!" Emma exclaimed. "You're awake!"
"What?"
"You fainted!"
"How?"
"You were doing too much," she whispered in your ear. "I need to tell you, we're using tag to train everyone for the escape."
"Do you have a date yet?"
"No, we still have to figure that out."
"Good, then I have time to do everything," you affirmed.
"Everything?" she asked you.
"Making medicines, designing and making the clothing, and do some coding to make drones. For the weapons issue, I can install some minor ones in the drones," you explained.
"Y-you can't do all that!" Emma exclaimed.
"Why?"
"You'll faint again!"
"It'll be fine," you tried to assure her.
"What'll be fine?" Mama asked walking in.
"Y/n's trying to do everything again!"
"No, I'm not."
"Yes you are!"
"No."
"Yes!"
"No."
"Yes!"
"Y/n, you need to rest. I know you want to do all of this for your siblings, but you need to take care of your health first," Mama intervened.
"I will."

"Are you sure you're fine?" Ray asked you, his voice full of concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Lift up your arms," you responded, wrapping the measuring tape around his chest.
"It's fine, we can wear our regular clothes," Emma tried to convince you.
"These ones aren't good for mobility, and aren't warm enough for outside. Plus, they might rip easily," you explained. "You can drop your arms," you told Ray, writing down the measurement and proceeding to measure his waist.
"We're teaching everyone how to utilize the environment, how to erase their tracks and look out for pursuers," Norman said to you.
"Make sure to work on agility. That's the most important. Okay, that's good," you said after measuring Ray's height. "Emma, you're next."

"This wire goes here and, there," you showed the finished drone to Emma. "I'll put the sedatives in here and the camera is here so we can see pursuers. I'll make two more aswell."
"Wahh!" Emma suddenly exclaimed, jumping on you. "Y/n, you're smart!"
"You are too Emma!" you told her, stabilizing yourself with one arm.
"With these we'll be ready for the escape!"

"The clothes are done!" you announced, ushering the trio into the room you had used for the project. "Emma here's yours."
(without the weapons)
"You can try it on to make sure it fits. Norman, heres yours."
"And Ray."
"I also made Don, Nat, Gilda and Anna's in advance, here."
Don
Nat
Gilda
Anna
"Ooh, they all look so good! Can we see yours?" Emma asked.
"Sure."
(you can choose one)
"Y-you look so pretty," Emma complimented, blushing.
"Thanks."

"One more drop of eszopiclone," you said out loud to yourself. "There, that's good."
In your hand, you held nine vials of sedative that you would put in the drones.
'Now I just need to warn them.'

Later that night
"What did you call us for?" Gilda asked you, walking into the dining hall along with Don, Nat and Anna.
"Sit down. I need to tell you all something."

"Demons? Conny was... kidnapped?" Don asked. "Hahaha! You're so serious about it too!"
"Don..." Gilda started. "I don't think she's joking."
"What about Mom?"
"She's been taking care of us so that we could be sold off," you answered calmly.
"Don't be ridiculous! She's so nice and-"
"Don. Y/n loves Mom. There's no way she would make up a lie like this," Gilda intervened. "Plus I did think it was weird. How we were seeing her less and less because of these projects and-WAHHHH!"
"I'm sorry Gilda. I didn't mean to make you feel like that."
"W-what will we do?" Anna asked, her lip trembling. "We'll all be killed!"
"Don't worry, we have a plan. We'll escape first with the children 5 and up to find a shelter and come back for the rest of the kids," you explained. "Emma doesn't know about this part yet, she wants to escape with everyone at the same time. But, this will be better. This will assure everyones safety. They might also decide to tell you about the secret soon, so when they do act surprised."
"Okay," Nat said, taking a deep breath in. "What can we do to help?"
•:•.•:•.•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•☾☼☽•:•.•:•.•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•
"We're going to talk to Don, Gilda, Anna, and Nat tonight," Emma whispered to you while everyone was eating. "Do you want to come?"
"I still need to work on some projects," you whispered back, taking a bite of toast.
"Okay."
