Josie POV

My mind was fogged up, I couldn't remember anything after talking with Mr. Strickler. "Josie.." I  heard my name being yelled but I couldn't recall whose voice it was. It was like I was speaking in my head to speak yet no words came out. "Come on Josie..speak to me..you haven't talked to me since the play.." I could feel my head look up as all I saw was blurry faces. I felt limited to my movements. "Something wrong Honey.." it was apparently James trying to talk to me, "Josie won't speak to me." I would if I could, "Well..I'm not sure how to help..maybe try and do twin telepathy.."

I could hear her giggle, "Claire already did that theory..", "Well there are different ways, one is by feeling, there's also touch and the last one is by hearing..well I have to get to work.." she hugged me and heard her slightly whisper, "Don't be afraid to be you.." the door closed, my head moved up as my vision became slightly clear.

"Feeling..touch..hearing.." he mumbled. "What touch I know, but feeling..and hearing..it's' not like twin telepathy is mind reading.." It technically is, but his brain must be very stupid to not hear whatever I'm thinking to know that is what twin telepathy is.

"Hearing..hmm maybe.." I could feel him staring at me, "If you are listening to me Josie, I want to say I'm sorry." Sorry? "I've been distant..I know.." he sighed. "You asked me why I come home late at night and the disappearances at the play practices..well the truth is.." Just say it James, all I need is a verbal confirmation about you being this hunter thing.

"The truth is..this.." he went close to me and I saw a glow, "this is an amulet..an amulet that made me a hunter for the bad.." I could feel my hand reach for it, "Does mom know.." I could finally speak as my head was still foggy, "No..just you, Toby, and Claire.." I tilt my head, "Also sorry for making fun of you and Steve..you know i'm only trying to protect you,"

"I know..I would do the same.." he laughed, "I'll go grab my bag and then we can head to school.." I nodded, he left and left the amulet on the table. I looked at it and sighed, "Sorry James.." I mumbled and quickly swapped out the amulet for the fake one. I placed the real one inside my jacket pocket. "You ready.." I looked up, "Yeah.." I felt bad but I was about to come clean to him but then my voice went mute.
