Ace

Chapter 2

Skidding down the road, I run up to the side of my house looking for the tree next to it in the dark. Panting, I jump up on the tree's lower branches and haul my self up. I hurriedly opened my bedroom window and climbed in, seeing my mother fast asleep on my bed. Hearing little voices from the closet I walk up to it and open the door where I see Seth and Ethan huddled up in the corner whispering to each other. Once they see me they whimper and crawl to me. I kneel down to there level hugging them both.

"Willow... I'm scared." Ethan says in his little voice.

"Shhh... everything is going to be okay baby. I want you guys to listen to me okay?" I ask pulling them away so I could see there scared big brown eyes. They both nod and I felt my heart break seeing the glassy look in Ethan eyes and the wobbling lip from Seth. "Ethan, baby, your a big boy and I want you to take care of Seth and mommy ok?" Once I hear Ethan let out a small ok I turn to look at Seth. "Seth watch Ethan's back and don't let anything get you guys, take care of each other always and if I'm not there then I want you call me of get help, but if you can't get help them use the moves I taught you guys alright? Mommy's not feeling so wall so look after her too. Now go to her and hide under the blanket with her alright?" I push them to my bed and stand up walking to my door, looking through the gap, I see light coming in from downstairs and I hear someone in the kitchen. Looking back I see Ethan and Seth peeking over the blankets with their big eyes. I put my pointer finger to my lips and motion for them to get down. Opening the door a bit wider I wince as it creaks and the noise from the kitchen stops.

"Willoooow!" sang a raspy voice that I knew so well from downstairs. "Come down and greet your papa no?"
