The Powerful Girl

Chapter #24 Gang

*Veronica's POV*

Even though I have been looking at the San Diego map, I did forget how long it takes to get there. Since we had to go on a freeway, I got a chance to just listen through my songs on my iPod. I don't have an official iPhone unlike my other sisters, since I guess my parents don't think about me so much to give me one. That could be a big stretch but that's how I really feel all the time! I just have a flip phone that I think my dad had and just kept it. I was surprised that he had a working one. I am also surprised that the IPod that I am using and that Eliana gave me still worked and held 300 songs including movies and tv shows I have downloaded. It's so tiny, and yet can hold so much!

It took us an half an hour to get to the zoo which was all decorated with Christmas decorations that hung along the zoo gate and the trees of the entrance. It had a sign hung over the official sign saying "San Diego Zoo" with the other sign saying Happy Holiday's with the letters written with green, and red paint. I couldn't see anymore of the decorations inside since I didn't get out of the car, like Camila did when she ran off to meet up with Alex. Alex did say hi to me and our dad which was cool, since she did have a fun and outgoing personality. After a bit they ran off to have some fun.

"You ready, boog?" My dad asked as he undo the parking break.

"Yup." I said as I had to get ready to fight another myth.

I was glad that my parents trusted me enough to go to the library by myself. I do have my own phone, and it is a library, a massive one at that, with glass windows all over the walls.

The library had three stories and multiple sets of stairs, one that went up and down, another went right to left, and I couldn't see the other set. When I get to the second level I will be able to.

The ground floor only had new books that have arrived there and music. The map near the library entrance said that the fiction and kids section was on the second floor. I rushed up there and saw that the fiction section was right there in front of the stairs, with the kids section towards the back, so the kids could have quiet.

Luckily for me of course there were computers on the edge of of almost some of the bookcases, or on an actual table where people sat to do work, homework, or something random. There were people on the computers at some of the tables, but I needed to get a table that had no people, just incase anybody wanted to pry and snoop on what the heck I am searching up.

Thankfully while scouting out the tables there happen to be one women leaving, and that left the whole wooden table empty and the computers free to use. I rushed to the one on the opposite side of where the women sat and went to the search bar for News. It does look like Karakoncolos hasn't done anything today. It seems like a there is another pattern. He has been attacking more in the afternoon and into night, so no one would see it. But not yet I guess.

I guess I was too into the news that I wasn't paying attention to what was going on outside. People outside were running and freaking out about something. I rushed down to the ground floor of the library and then realized what was going on. A wild animal randomly caused havoc on his habitat that made more havoc on other habitats. Those animals broke out and made people visiting run out.

There were so many people on the streets and sidewalks to even care about me walking along towards the zoo. Thank god. I was able to get to the front entrance of the zoo where there were much more people running out. Two of them happened to be Camila and Alex! I hid behind a bush and watched as they I guess decided to go to a Starbucks.

As I was about to head in I just had to get a text from my dad. He asked if I was okay and told me that Camila was okay if I didn't know what was going on.
