I quickly crouched down and checked her pulse.Thump...thump...thank God."Tanya!" I look up to see who was yelling my name.Luke was running towards us at a high speed.He was a scrawny,yet tall boy with fluffy brown hair and wobbly knees.He had a cast on his arm,and his other was covered in bloodied bandages.He had a curious look on his face,mixed with surprise and fear from seeing Sara unconscious."Luke!" I cry, I feel like bursting out into tears. "I found this in her, I don't know what it is but-" I take a breath to process it out,"I'm scared!" I hug my big brother in tears, "I-I don't know what to do! The world's all messed up!"

I felt Lukes sympathetic gaze on the top of my head.He was much taller than me,so I was barely up to his shoulder crying into it and ruining his shirt by balling my tears into it."Don't worry,lil sis..." He muttered awkwardly.He patted my back,something mom would do back then to calm me down. It would always work.I pulled away and looked back down at Sara.Luke glanced down at Sara.There was a glint in his eyes,almost as if he was smiling,but he wasn't.He wouldn't ever, would he? And most definitely never at someone's misfortune. Brother was always odd. I could never quite pinpoint what was going on in his mind. I mean if you know him it is really normal for him to act like this. Except this time it felt wrong. Like it lifted something off of his mind. No, that couldn't be it.

I brushed it off. Brother was always a different one. He was probably too stunned to react,but his mind was brilliant for all I knew.It was like he had a plan for everything,and could predict every-

Brother suddenly dashed to the side,grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the way just as a defect carrying a knife stabbed the air,where my brother just was.

"Sara!" I yelled.

Luckily,Luke had also dragged Sara out of the way.I pulled out my pistol and shot the clone in the forehead.Blood oozed out of its forehead,staining the skin surrounding it.I suddenly realized that it was a clone of mother. Luke's eyes were wide. I don't think I had ever seen him like that.We haven't seen our mother in 4 years.

"Mom..." I whispered to myself, as I watched her struggle, it stung something in me. She looked just like Aurora. My tears slowly withered away. Brother looked absolutely bewildered."There are only clones of people who are still alive!"

A pang of hope hit me. What did he mean only people that are alive? My hope was quickly replaced by curiosity.

"Luke,how do you know all of this?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him.

Brother said nothing.He just ignored me and looked down at the corpse of the clone."We're going to find her. Only she knows how to heal Sara,and stop all of this madness."
