"What is happening?" My mom said as we got into the condo.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
Ezra left the room.
"I thought it was a weird sickness," She continued." Then the same sickness was in the girls and boys today and yesterday. You stopped both."
"Yep!" I answered.
"How?Why?"
"You don't know, do you?" Ezra interrupted.
He handed me a rag to clean the blood.
"Know What?" Both of my parents said in unison.
"Peter created a sickness-" I coughed up blood into the cloth.
"He created an illness that controls the minds of the kids of the council," Ezra explained.
"How long has this been happening?" My dad asked.
"Two years." Danny piped up
"Do you know how to stop it?" My mom asked.
"No!" Danny, Ezra, and I responded in unison.
"We need a reset." My dad muttered.
"What do you mean, dad?"
"Well, whenever a child of a council member is born, there is a crown that is created."
"Okay?" My mom questioned.
"Well, you and your brother are a new power type of the council," He continued." You could cause everything to be set to reset to a neutral world."
"How do we do that?" I asked.
"Easy! You both have to put your crowns on at the same time."
"Okay, where are the crowns?"
"At my parent's castle."
"Let's go then."
"Tomorrow, Let's celebrate your birthday today." My mom said.
"But Ellie!" My dad answered.
"We haven't been in their lives for eighteen years, Elliot. Let's have this one day."
"Okay, Fine."
My mom cheered as she grabbed Danny and I's hands as we headed back to the dining hall. Ezra was holding my other hand.
