Justice, Kacey, and Jenisis pulled into the driveway. Parking right by Kam's Black challenger. It stopped raining and drizzling. It was just the aftermath. Jenisis was sleeping in the back. Justice picked her up and took her into the house. Everyone was in the living room and kitchen waiting for their return. Kam stood outside. Out on the porch in the back. Looking towards the battle pad he was just on this very morning.
"Are you guys okay?" Kiyah asked. Kacey shook his head. Jenisis woke up when Justice sat her down. Her eyes were swollen, and red. She laid her head on Kiyah's lap. Chess and Titan were standing in the kitchen. JerDazia was sitting next to Kiyah.
Justice stormed over towards Chess. "This your fucking fault! We're in this because of you!" Grabbing him swing him to the ground. "Hey, stop!" Titan picked up Justice. Kacey stood in between them. "No fucking fight. Right now. We need to figure out what we need to do without causing as few deaths as possible..." Titan let go of Justice as started walking towards the living room. "You think we should give up the baby daddy. His no pull-out game is the reason we're in this place." Justice said. Chess put up the middle finger.
The back door slid open. Kam stepped inside and walked right by the kitchen, "A word Boy Scout." He went upstairs. Kacey followed, "Titan keep everyone okay." Titan nodded.
Kacey and Kam stood in Kacey's room alone. With the door closed.
"What?" - Kacey
"We have to kill him now. Like I've been saying from day one. Boy Scout this getting out of hand."- Kam
"We're not just Finna kill someone. Plus it's not our decision to make it's hers." - Kacey
"I don't give a fuck about whose decision it is. He needs to go. Do I need to remind you who the fuck Chess is? I shouldn't. And then this man whose a fucking ninja, samurai, or whatever the hell he is. Said he's gonna keep killing and keep killing until we make a decision. We're saying fuck everyone including innocent people just to keep a hopeless romantic relationship that's not even gone last because they are from different Societies. A lot of people finna die. The needs of the many out ways the needs of the few Kacey." - Kam
"Since when you cared about others. We are not gonna kill people. He also said someone hired him so we should be focusing on finding the person who hired him. Kam this is their decision." Kiyah was standing outside listening to their conversation. A tear fell onto her cheek. She walked away.
"Are you gonna take that risk. We're not immortal. I think we should vote. Everyone in your little friend group you got going should vote. Trust me we should kill him." - Kam
"Trust you? The same kid that fucked my best friend behind my back and said it's okay. Come on bro." - Kacey
"Are you finna do that here?" - Kam
They heard some chatter outside. And someone bussed in the room. JerDazia said. "Hey, you guys need to come to see this." She sounded in a rush. "What's wrong?" Kacey said. She looked worried and her head turned back around, "It's Kiyah. Hurry."
They rushed downstairs to the back porch. Seeing everyone standing outside except Kiyah and Jenisis. "Kiyah come down. What are you doing, Romeo come get your girl." Justice said. Kacey, Kamden, and JerDazia got to the porch and they look up to see Kiyah on the edge of the roof. She looking about to jump. But Jenisis trying to convince her to get down.
"Kiyah baby, get down please." - Jenisis
"No, I don't wanna be the reason everyone dies or get hurt. That's not me. I don't wanna cause any more pain. That man said if one of them dies it's all over right then I'll just get rid of myself." Tears slid down the face of Kiyah.
"I lost my mom, stepdad, and brother all tonight. I can not lose another person. Not tonight. We can figure it out together baby girl please." - Jenisis
"Kam goes to mom and dad's room the room leads right under them. Hurry to go." - Kacey
"Okay." - Kam
"I'm gonna jump, I'm tired of this. I can't do this." - Kiyah
"Kiyah no!" -Jenisis
Kam ran up the stairs. And he opened their door. They had a little balcony. Kiyah closed her eyes. Shedding two final tears as she jumps off the roof.
Kam jumps off the balcony grabbing her mid-air and landing on the battle pad. She is on top of him. "Please don't do that again," Kam said she shook her head. Everyone ran down the steps. They helped them up. Kam's shoulder popped out. "You need some help with that," Titan said to Kam.
Kam walked up the stairs to the wall and slammed his should in the wall putting it back in place as he yelled. They all walked inside and Jenisis walked down the stairs as everyone was in the living room.
"Okay, no one is dying, we're not giving each up or anything. We're all in this together. We need to find out who's doing this, and why. And doing shit like that won't make it any better. How far along are you Kiyah" - Kacey
"Fourteen weeks." - Kiyah
"You have been pregnant four almost three, four months now and we're just now finding out?" - Kam
"Your not the easiest person to talk to. You just tried to murder my boyfriend." - Kiyah
"Keep it up he mind end up dead."- Kam
She throws up the middle finger at him. As he does one back...
"One of them is Richie. The one that was shooting at us. That killed Amire, he is Richie." - Kam
"How do you know?" - Chess
"His dragon tattoo, I say it around his wrist, plus he wasn't there at detention. Two plus two equals four. Let's go visit him and find out for sure." - Kam
¥
Richie walked into his room, dropping his bags by the door. He lived by himself. He turned on his light to see Kam, Chess, and Kacey standing waiting on him. They straddled him as he put his hand on his chest. "Guys y'all scared the fuck out of me. What's the nigga doing in my room?" Richie asked. Titan came up from behind him and grabbed his arms. "Hey. What the hell. Titan dude gets the fuck off me." He struggled to escape. "Richard Bart Henry, I will ask you one time and one time only. If you lie to me. I will show no sympathy for you. I know when you are lying. So I'd advise you not to lie to me." Kamden walked up to Richie. Staring him in his eyes.
"Dude what are you talking about?" - Richie
"Richie. Where have you been and if you lie I'll put so many bullets in your head boy. Where were you? Why you didn't show up to detention?" -Kam
"Kam, I have no reason to lie to you bro. I was fucking on Naesha dude, you know I been trynna knock her down for the longest. Fam get the fuck off me Titan." - Richie
"You disappointing me Rich." Kam pulled out a gun and shot him in the foot. Richie yells loud. "Do you fucking remember now! Where the fuck were you? Don't fucking lie to me." Richie's gun dropped out of his pocket. Kam shook his head.
Kam picked Richie's bag off the ground and tossed it to Kacey. "Check it." Kam order. Kacey dumped the stuff out of the bag onto the bed. And the black outfit and mask fell onto the bed. Everyone slowly shifted towards.
"You lying piece of shit! Who's the other two!" Chess yell running over towards Richie. Kacey grabbed him and held him back. "Hey calm down." Hold his hands out. "Calm down fuck that! I'm going to kill this motherfucker! He killed my brother dawg what the fuck!" Tears shed down his face as his fist clenched pacing back and forth. "Get him on a leash Boy Scout," Kam responded.
He pointed the gun to Richie's head looking him dead in his eyes. The memories they shared. The love Kam had for Richie just to be betrayed in the end
"You have one final time Rich. Who are the other two? Show some pride before you die." - Kam
"Okay. Okay. I'll tell you." - Richie
Kacey felt a negative energy. As he turned around and looked at Kam. Looking at the window. Feeling something bad. Kacey lungs at Kam.
Before opening his mouth two bullets came swarming in hitting Richie in the head and heart. As he collapses to the floor. Trying to catch him Titan fell as well. Everyone dropped to the ground ducking trying to evade any more bullets that may have been coming. Kam looked at Kacey as they looked each other in the eyes.

The boys left Richie's house, started driving back to the house when Kacey's phone rang. "Hey, dad," Kacey said. He put the phone up to his ear.
"Hey, I heard Justice and Jenisis's house caught on fire. Is everything okay?" - Father
"Yeah, we're fine. His mom and stepdad, have been confirmed dead. Still waiting on his brother." - Kacey
"I am so sorry. Damn oh my Gosh. Well, they know they can stay with us as long as they need. Do you guys need us to come back?" - Father
"No don't go anywhere. We're fine. You left me in charge. Everything is okay. Enjoy your time seriously." - Kacey
"Okay. Well if you need me just call. I love you guys." - Father
"We love you too." - Kacey
The boys pulled up to the house. One after the other. They saw the girls and Justice all in the living room on computers and phones. And there was a mysterious woman by JerDazia. She had big juicy lips, 5'2, light hazel eyes, long straight hair. "Guys this is my Older sister Tamera. Tamera this is Kacey, Kamden, Chess, and Titan." She walked up to the boy and they all shook her hand. "Your name sounds familiar? Did you live here at one point?" Kacey asked. Looking at her with confusion. Kam stared her down in her eyes.
"No, I've visited now and then but never stayed. I and my child live up North." She spoke with a soft voice. Kam didn't shake her hand as he shook his head at her. "Okay?" She utter.
Kacey asked, "Don't mind him Tamera. What are y'all doing?" He went to get water from the kitchen. "We're looking up the black mask, and trying you know solve the mystery, Scooby-Doo style.." Jenisis said as she was focused on her computer. "The fire... The fire of Yellow Bay City. You guys were all there right. He said you guys made him or what. All of us had a had in his creation." JerDazia said.
Kam looked at her folding his arms, "It seems like a stretch. A big one But I'm following your thought process. However, you weren't there so. Back to square one. The killer somehow has to be connected to all of us u and Chess included But keep working on it."
"So exactly what happened if you don't mind me asking, how are y'all, friends. Just like some common knowledge would be grateful if you may." - JerDazia
"The twins have been around for like forever, we met Titan our sophomore year. We have just been friends ever since." - Kacey
"What about the fire?" -JerDazia
"I fucked with this crazy ass female obsessed with me and my family. Aiyah Danville. Last summer. We were in the major house and a fight broke out. She dated me to get to my father. The leader of the high society. Like head honcho. We had a sister Kristina. she was fighting and Aiyah. She got so mad Fire broke out a total of 8 people died. Our sister and Aiyah included. We got blamed for it. Two months later Kei'jare dies. " - Kam
"I knew Kei'jare. We were friends once upon a time. We were really good friends." - Tamera her face got sad.
"He never mentioned you. But we didn't cause the fire." - Kacey
"Hmm." - Kam looked at her squinting his eyes.
"What's the High Society? Why did was she obsessed with your father?" - JerDazia
"Okay, There are Five Societies. The High Society, that's Us. Low Society they the most advanced technology ever. Mid Guard That's where Chess is From. Secret Society Like Secret agents on some shit. You have to do a pretty big crime against the All fathers to call you out on it. And Then the Court Order the Judicial Law. Each Society Grand Master has a Certain power passed down or has been given. However, one Society can't invade or take over another. Laws and shit. we been beefing with Mid Guard since I can remember, the steady trying to invade and Change Rules." - Kam
"Or there's lower level power like what I have. My eyes will turn color. I get stronger faster. However, that power only comes to those with a pure heart. And it's earned not given. Females don't have the power though. The societies all came together and made it a law that females should not have the power. Last one to have it was our grandmother. She ordered the law. Hell Another law is The Society members can not mate or have kids with one another. Stupid law right. Can't fuck who u wanna fuck. The consequences are the mother, the father, or the baby must die. A lot of fucked up shit comes with this life." - Kacey
"Seems pretty fucked up. No females, killing babies. Hard shit to wrap my head around." -JerDazia
"It rarely ever happens. The baby thing. Well, we got one now. But when that's the case only a headmaster or someone with power can Give that order out." - Kacey
"You think Mid Guard sent Black mask after us?" - Jenisis
"I mean more than likely. We don't know nothing yet." - Kacey
"You think it could be her father coming back. Or mother." - Justice
"Do y'all know the parents?" - JerDazia
"No, Never met them. So we went start there."
"Tomorrow, I'll go to Mole see what he knows. And can find out." -Kacey
"Wait what about your therapist. He knows damn near everything you Kacey. And everything you say maybe it's him?" -Kam
"I don't know. We'll split up into teams. Kam you, Justice, and Jenisis go to the doctor's office tomorrow. Me, Titan, JerDazia will go to the Mole. Everyone else will stay here."
"Cool." - Jenisis
Everyone else agreed and nodded their head. And everyone parted their ways.
Justice walked outside on the porch. Going onto his phone and clicked on Jeriyiah's Contact name. He here's Jeriyiah's voice "Yo wassup."
"Hey. Your safe." - Justice
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" - Jeriyiah
"Uh, no reason. Just don't come home. too much arguing and just don't want you around this mess. Me, Jenny and... Mom loves you." - Justice
" I love y'all too."-Jeriyiah
The phone hung up. And Jenisis come up from behind Justice and give him a side hug. Laying her head on his shoulder, "You did the right thing. He doesn't need any part of this." She said. They stared at the moon. And both started crying. Tear after tear. As their emotions. Reminiscing about their mother. Kacey looked at them from the sliding door. Knowing they needed that. Both of them alone are with each other's shoulders.
Upstairs slept Kiyah in her room in the dark with the window curtains open. Chess walked up into her room and turned on his phone. He went to his music and played a slow song he turned the volume to the middle, she woke up and sat up, "Hey." She said yawning. He handed out his hand, "May I have this dance." She put her hand on her mouth and chuckled. "You're so corny."
She got up he pulled her close to him. She laid her head on his chest. "I'm scared. I hate we put them in this position." She said she gripped tighter around his body. "We're going to make it through this princess. I promise okay. And I'm not gone leave you. No matter what." they slow danced moving side to side under the moonlight and music. "Thank you. For just everything. Especially my brothers. They mean well. And I am so sorry for Amire" They stopped as she looked up at him. He slowly slips his thumb on his right cheek. "It's okay. No need to thank me. Amire. Died protecting me. Imma makes sure he didn't do it for nothing."

Jensis walked to the kitchen to see Kacey on the back Porch sitting on the steps. She looked at the time to see 4:30 am she walked out there. He turned around and waved. She sat down beside him.
"Hey. What you doing up this late?" - Jenisis
"I should be asking you the same thing. I'm thinking. Why didn't you tell me about you and Kamden?" - Kacey
"I don't know, I was afraid, scared like I love him I do Kace and I told him that but he still hasn't said it back. He says he does but I want him to tell me. Show me that he wants this. We had to keep things a secret. But now I don't know." - Jenisis
"Do you love him, don't give up." - Kacey
"I just really want to be with him. And this situation now put a void in our relationship." - Jenisis
"Everything will come together. Kei'jare anniversary tomorrow. Everything just so hard." - Kacey
"We're in this together. What about you lover boy. You never invite females to your house. JerDazia must be special." - Jenisis
"She has potential. Just my trust is so fucked up right now. I don't want my heart broken again. And I already have enough on my plate. I just need all this to be over without any more deaths... Did you know about Kiyah and Chess, and this whole pregnancy thing?" - Kacey
"I think the potential is a understatement. And yes. She came to me first." - Jenisis
Justice walks out to them seeing his best friend and sister talking. He sits down on the opposite side of Kacey.
"Hey. long night. " - Justice
"Yeah. Did you know about Kam and Jen? And Kiyah pregnancy?" - Kacey
" I knew about Kam and Jen but Kiyah's pregnancy hell Nah." - Justice
"Guys were supposed to be best friends. Family. How can I remain to trust you guys if y'all lying to me about simple shit." - Kacey
"Kacey those are just easy topics to talk about." - Jenisis
"You know we did not mean any bad or harmful intentions." - Justice
"Yeah I know but still guys. From now on no lying. I'm still sad about Kei'jare death. I was so close to him and this lady he never spoke about. She claims she knows him well." -Kacey
"You know it's always gone hurt." You gotta learn to grow and move on. He out of all people would say that. How's your visions been?" - Justice
"I haven't had them since this morning. I do need to let go. Maybe stop living in the past." -Kacey
"It's okay to miss them but you can't change the past. If you keep living in the past you'll never move on." - Jenisis
They all nodded at each other then they hugged each other. They looked out to the battle pad joking and talking about their old memories. Not knowing what will occur or having a thought in the world about. Their current situation.
