Chapter 18

"You're going to do what now?" Jeanie and Grim asked in unison. They stared at Kent as if he had two heads.

"I'm going to find a scientist to help cure whatever ailed Melody."

Grim shook his head. "Little brother, you're on a dangerous quest."

"Don't you think I know that?"

"But you're willing to risk this? Come on, Kent. Your children and grandchildren. You have a family."

"Yes, but my family is older now, Grim. We all are. Look around us and it's about time for the kids to start a new generation."

Grim and Jeanie exchanged a look. "Okay, Grim. I hate to say this, but I agree with Kent."

Grim sighed. "Of course, you do. Look, if this is something you want to do, then Jeanie and I will help you."

"Thank you. I think we'll need all the help we can get."

"Yes, we're going to need help from the powerful five and our family," Jeanie agreed.

So they called a meeting with the family and team and they all agreed to help.

Benson stood up. "Dad, this is ridiculous. This isn't going to bring Mom back!" Benson ran outside.

"Let him be," Grim said to Collin as he noticed his brother tried to follow him.

"I think we should all take a break now," Jeanie announced.

Ruby went outside and Gemma followed behind her. "You okay?" Her sister asked.

"I was just thinking about how lucky the Lincoln children are. They are lucked out on great parents and we got-"

"I know, but I was lucky because I had one thing many other unfortunate children didn't have. An amazing big sister."

Ruby looked up and wiped her eyes. "And here, I thought all this time you hated me."

"I never hated you, Ruby."

Just as Ruby was about to reply, Benson screamed and they all ran outside to see he was surrounded by bats.

Jeanie did a spell to make them go away. Grim turned to her. "Since when do you know magic?"

"Oh um, I have been practicing."

"And you never told me? For crying out loud, Jeans, I'm a wizard. You could have come to me!"

"Oh yeah, like I want the guy who was hard on Melody to teach me!"

"I'm also your husband!" Grim retored.

"Come on, everyone. Let's let them work it out," Kent shooed everyone back inside.

Karen and her kids left first. It was Suzy's turn they all said bye to their uncle Kent and left.

Soon it was just Kent's kids and the powerful five team.

"I need your help. I know Benson isn't on board, but I hope to change his mind. Are you all willing to help me find a scientist to help cure the illness my wife had?" Kent asked the team.

  Collin agreed to it and told them they find a scientist and they'd work closely in the lab with them.
