Chapter 11

This chapter is going to be a little different. Instead of Sang's chapter we are going to do Silas.
POV: Silas

Me, Kota, Mr. Blackbourn, Nathan, and North walk towards our cars. Kota and Nathan go to their car and Mr. Blackbourne, North, and I went to his car. No one had questioned him when he said to split up. We all could have fit in Kota's or Mr. Blackbourne's car, but he probably wanted to be prepared for everything.

I sat in the front while North gets into the back, and Mr. Blackbourne steps into the driver's seat.

"We are going to the county library." Mr. Blackborne said. "Mr. Lee and Mr. Griffin are going to follow us," he continues.

North and I nodded, not speaking. I think about the fight we had. That was not the first fight we had, but it was properly one of the worst. We have known each other a long time. Because of that, we act like brothers. And even though brothers fight, we still love each other. All we need right now is a little space from each other. A little time for us to cool down. I look in the side mirror at North. He glowers out the window. I could only imagine what he was thinking.

The ride to the library was quiet and uneventful. Nobody wanted to talk. I think we are all stressed and worried about Aggele Mou that we didn't want to make any matters worse. At least that is how I felt. I think back to the fight with North...again. That is not the first time North had exploded like this for Sang either. But it hurt to see him like that. It always hurts to see him like that. It hurts when any of the guys explode.

Everybody thinks that North has no emotions, (well maybe except anger.) But honestly, North is properly one of the most emotional people I know. North is a worry wart, although he would never agree with me, and I would never call him that to his face. It doesn't make it any less true.

I snap back into reality. Apparently, I was lost in my own thoughts for a while because when I look up, I see the library. I turn my gaze over to Mr. Blackbourne. He glances at me too. I can tell in his eyes that he's asking me if I'm okay. I nod, silently saying yes through our silent communication. Then I see him ask North the same question. North glowers, but nods also.

Mr. Blackbourne nods back and turns off the car. I open my door and step onto the library's parking lot.

A few seconds later, I see Kota pull up next to us. Nathan jumps out of the front seat as soon as the car comes to a stop. Kota steps out a second later.

"What's the game plan?" Nathan asked as soon as they joined our group.

"Mr. Griffin, Mr. Korba, and Mr. Lee, take a look in the kids section and look for the Aurther book. Me and Mr. Taylor are going to go to the young adult and fantasy section. If we don't find the book, we will call Mr. Morgan to see if they find anything out." Mr. Blackbourne said.

All of us nodded and started walking to the front doors. The library looked like the library from the show 'Librarians.'

We split from each other without talking. I was the first one to make it to the children's section. I stand with me facing the rows of books. I have this feeling. I'm not sure how to explain it. It's like I'm scared and nervous at the same time. I wonder if that's how the other guys feel. Or if Agele Mou feels that way, wherever she is.

"You good?" Kota asked me. His face is lined with worry. I nod. Hoping to erase some of the worry, but my action has no effect.
