Atlas , Ayumi and Klaus would run home horrified of what they just saw running upstairs they ran and closed the door panting and waking the others up by accident , Myth looking up rubbing his eyes wondering what's wrong . Klaus ran to the nearest trashcan and began puking Mina and Elianna would get up rushing to help Klaus and calming him down . Ayumi still in shock she sat at her bed shaking a bit and would watch as Amethyst tried to calm her down , "What the hell happened?!" Everest said as he got up from his bed rubbing his eyes and putting his slippers on and staring at Atlas who was panting . Katarina got up and walked towards Klaus "Eww he pukedth out a dumplingth.." Ezekiel ran over to look and saw "EWW!" - "Guys leave Klaus alone" Elianna said as she handed him a towel. After a few minutes the kids calmed down , "What happened?" Myth questioned , Atlas looked at him and shook his head "Nothing, we were just too late and we raced , I guess Klaus just ran out of breath haha.." Klaus and Ayumi nodded going along with Atlas. The kids climbed back into bed and fell back asleep. Atlas woke up and realized everyone was gone , he walked downstairs and saw Mother and Father staring at him creepily and smiling next to 2 large demons who were holding red flowers with blood . Atlas ran out the door and saw all the corpse's of his younger siblings on the floor with flowers in the middle of them. The ground began to shake and has he turned around he saw mother swinging her hand up in the air with a flower to stab him, "WAKE UP!" it was a dream. Atlas turned and saw Ezekiel shaking his bed and Mina holding his glasses, "Ohayo Atlas!" Atlas covered his face quickly and mumbled "Morning Mina!" he grabbed his glasses and put them on feeling less insecure. Ayumi would put on her shoes looking extremely tired than usual, Klaus looked normal and more cheerful than usual which was odd, especially because of what they witnessed last night. He put on his scarf and walked with a grin on his face. Angie came running in to Atlas and Mina and smiled "Morning Mr. Atlas and Miss. Mina! Do you like how my bed head hair came out today?" Atlas smiled and nodded and patted her head , "Yup it suits you very well Angie!" Mina got on her knees and smiled "Mhm! you look rather flattering, I see you have some trousers on as well! You're no longer wearing skirts, are you more comfortable?" Angie smiled and nodded "YEP! I feel much more better!" Atlas stared and realized he had to tell them what they saw sooner or later, he didn't want to see Angie in the same place he saw Ruth. Ayumi walked downstairs next to Elianna , "Ayumi , you look awful are you sick?" Ayumi changed her facial expression to happy and smiled and shook her head no "No no! of course not haha,I just couldn't sleep for some reason." Elianna looked at Ayumi and whispered "I can tell when you're lying Ayumi , are you sure it's that?" Ayumi stood still in shock contemplating whether she should tell her or not. "Duhh! I'm fine It's probably because I haven't ate yet." Elianna nodded and fixed her glasses saying "Eh , understandable you just seem somewhat upset about something ." Ayumi gulped looking down , she felt the sweat and cold shock going down her neck still having flashbacks of what she saw she smiled and continued walking next to Elianna. As the children made it to the dining room they each sat down in their usual spots. Mother would walk in holding something in her pocket but stood still observing the children . Ayumi looked down at her food gulping wondering if she should've blurted out what she saw last night, as she picked up her spoon she felt heat near her ear . It was Klaus. "Smile Ayumi... They're watching." Ayumi looked up and saw Mother and Father staring at her , she began eating and smiled a bit trying not to make it obvious . She turned and saw Klaus chuckling and being normal , how could he not be so scared and nervous after everything that happened, Did he forget? "I wonderth if rufth ith enjoyingth her new familiyth!" Katarina would say with her mouth fool of bread, "YEAH SHE'S PROBABLY HAVING SO MUCH FUN! NOT FAIR." Ezekiel said right after he heard Katarina . "Well I mean wouldn't you be happy if you got adopted as well?" Myth questioned , Ezekiel stared at him and stood quiet. As everyone was finishing up their food Amethyst grabbed her bowl and started walking to do her dishes mother grabbed her by the shoulder and stared down at her, "Oh dear... I almost forgot to ask you.." she pulled out the crystal from her pocket and handed it to her "Is this yours?" Amethyst looked at her and gently grabbed it "Ah yes! It was supposed to be Ruth's goodbye gift!" Atlas stared at the girl and Mother and his face went pale realizing they never gave it but they did take it . Ayumi stared at Atlas and Klaus who was walking outside . "Thank you Mother!" Amethyst said while putting the crystal in her pocket and smiling , "Of course dear." Atlas and Ayumi would head outside put quickly get dragged by a hand into the library. "What the fuck do you think you two are doing." Klaus said while closing the door behind him , "US!? YOU'RE ACTING LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED." Ayumi said while pounding her palm into the table "Exactly , how can you not act nervous or terrified Klaus?" Atlas said after her. "Because that's the whole point , that crystal Ayumi dropped. That's evidence already that someone went near the gate. If they see us acting like how you guys are right now we're next on this list to be killed. That crystal is Amethyst's, They're most likely suspicious of her already. You can't be so naive , it's only risking our lives more." Atlas would stare at Klaus realizing he was right , they were acting suspicious . Ayumi looked down and felt her face getting hot , "Why would they do that. Have we've been some type of killing farm? Mother was speaking to whatever those things were, almost as if she was selling us ." Klaus looked around and peeked at the window seeing all the children outside running in their white clothes. Klaus looked at little Angie and saw the printed numbers in black on her neck reading "834678". Atlas caught onto what Klaus was looking at and looked at Ayumi's and his neck and than touching his, "Ayumi's right...The numbers must be some type of marketing. We all have it ." -- "Not the babies." Ayumi said cutting him off , " Even if they don't have it they eventually get it. I was in the nursery a couple weeks ago taking care of Akko and Athena than Mother ordered us to head to bed so I did and the next day I went to get the little ones and by the time I picked Akko up she had some number already written on her neck . " Klaus , Ayumi and Atlas would all stare at each other wondering what to do than turning around frightened as they saw the door open . It was Myth , "Uh what are you guys doing here?" Ayumi , Klaus and Atlas would each stand up straight and smile "Nothing! we just wanted to see if..." Atlas paused waiting for something to say, "We could find some new books , plus it's pretty humid outside and we didn't want to be sweating like pigs!" Klaus said right after Atlas and flipping his own scarf and giving a lazy smirk. Ayumi got up and moved her braid to the side and asked "Why are you here as well? Did you need us?" Myth looked at her as he leaned against the door "I was getting bandages for Angie , she fell whil-"Atlas ran past him before Myth could finish and ran outside the doors. "ANGIE!?" Atlas said as he ran to the front and saw the little girl under a tree with Mina and Elianna and Everest. Atlas ran and jumped to the ground in front of Angie and looked at her bloody knee , "Hi Mr. Atlas!" She said wiping her tears and waving . "Angie are you alright!? Mina what happened to her!" Mina smiled and patted his shoulder "She just fell while chasing Everest around , he had her teddy bear but she's alri-" Atlas got up and went in front of Everest pinning him a bit against the tree "WHY DID YOU GRAB MR. TEDDY!?" Atlas said to Everest "IT'S JUST A BEAR YOU IDIOT GET OFF." Katarina and Ezekiel would come back running with rocks that Amethyst made them help her carry and Amethyst speed walking behind them trying to catch up . Ezekiel dropped the rocks and went near them cheering and screaming "GO GO GO! FIGHT!! HIT HIM!" Ezekiel jumped up and down and screaming louder and louder and Katarina cheered along with him . "YOU MADE HER GET HURT ! YOU KNOW SHE'LL CHASE YOU IF YOU TAKE MR.TEDDY!" Everest tried pushing him off "GIVE IT A BREAK ATLAS , SHE HAS TO GET HURT AT SOME POINT . SHE'S NOT A BABY ANYMORE!" Myth , Klaus and Ayumi ran out the house and towards them. Elianna grabbed Angie trying not to let her see what was going on and watched as Mina and Ayumi tried separating the two boys "ATLAS LET GO YOU DUMB SHIT!" Ayumi said as she struggled to pull him off Myth would go in the middle trying to separate them as well. "GET HIM! UPPER HOOK HIM EVEREST!!" Ezekiel said "ATLATH PULLTH HITH HAIRETH! " Katarina said while watching and jumping. Father Hiko ran over helping to separate the boys , "ATLAS WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" - "HE HURT ANGIE!" Father Hiko looked at Angie and looked at the boys and grabbed Atlas "Everest go to Mother while I handle Atlas."-- "BOOO!" Ezekiel and Katarina would say while walking away. Myth would help Amethyst pick up her rocks and watched with everyone else as father took Atlas, Father Hiko took off his blazer and placed it on the back of his chair as he sat down and leaned on the table "Goodness Kiddo , You can't be bickering with Everest for everything." - "Yes Father I know , but he made Angie get hurt and took her stuffed toy. " Father Hiko grinned and grabbed a book behind him as he put his legs up on the desk crossing one over the other and opening the book. Atlas looked at the book and read the words "Grace-field home for children and more." His eyes widened as he wondered if their was any information he needed from that book. He would scoot a bit closer and saw the authors name "Frances Desdemona." with a fox symbol next to it. "You care very much of Angie , I see that and so do I . I care very much for my children all of them , but you don't see me bickering with one of them when they hurt one do you?" Atlas shook his head no and sighed "I'm sorry Father. I was just in a heated moment, It won't happen again." Father Hiko put the book down and creepily smiled at Atlas as he stood up and opened the door , "Head on out now." Atlas got up and looked at the book before turning to father fixing his glasses and smiling . Father closed the door behind him and Atlas ran outside to the tree. Staring at Ayumi and Klaus he gulped and nodded giving them a hint that he found something.
