• Chapter Eight: A Spy? •

|present|

"What do you mean?" Emma questioned the albino.

"In a nutshell, Mama already know we are the targets. She also knows that Ray has joined us three." Norman responded.n

"Why do you think so?" Emma asked, listening carefully.

"Many reasons. The easiest one to explain is how she utilises Sister Krone. She's making her watch over all of us, just so she has another pair of eyes making sure we don't do anything strange."

Norman paused before speaking up again. The whole group listened intently.

"Mama isn't putting any effort into weeding us out, and she's even letting us do as we please. Strange isn't it?"

Emma nodded, still a bit confused.

"But, why would she let us do as we please if she already knows who we are?" The girl asked, as Y/n stepped up.

"Because she already has a way of monitoring us. Basically, It's highly likely that there is a mole among us children." She explained.

"What should we do? We definitely have to find this source" Ray stated, emphasising the last syllable.

"What about our plans to involve Don and Gilda. If those two end up being the spies, then we have no problems." He finished.

Norman sighed, then remembered something.

"Ray. How are things going with plans to destroy the transmitters?" The albino asked.

"Just fine. I'll be done in around ten days." Ray replied. Norman smiled.

"Then let's put things into action." He said. Y/n furrowed her eyebrows.

"What do you mean?" She questioned, earning a chuckle from the blue eyed boy.

"On November eighth, ten days from now, we will be executing our escape plan." Norman announced.

The three were shocked. Ten days? Emma lunged forward, Ray following.

"Isn't that too much of a rush? Not that I mind-" Emma shouted. Ray groaned.

"I MIND!" He yelled. Y/n got up and walked towards Norman.

"Mama's goal is to restrict us. That's why she won't take action until we do. Doesn't that mean we have time then?" The girl followed up. Norman nodded.

"That's exactly why. Our goal is to become unpredictable to her. Anyway, ten days is a lot of time!" He spoke.

Norman's plan was incredibly risky, but it was the best option. The first thing on their to-do list, is to try get Gilda and Don to join them.

~timeskip~

"So, how are we gonna break the news to them? Not everyone is gonna believe you three like I did!" Ray stated.

"Well, Emma, Y/n and I were discussing this as well." Norman started.

"We won't tell them the truth." Emma finished for the boy. Ray's jaw dropped.

"THE HELL?! We can't be responsible for putting them in danger!" He shouted.

"We want our escape to succeed. But in the event that it doesn't, as long as those two don't know the real truth, their lives might just be spared." Y/n explained.

The four stepped up to the door. Norman opened it as it revealed two children.

"Thanks for waiting, guys!" The albino said. Don turned around and got up.
