  Later in the week, Auburn had gone to help Kaylynn do laundry in the backyard of the main house.

  "Where's everyone else?" Auburn asked curiously, scrubbing a shirt on a washboard that sat against a bucket of water, "The only people here are the twins and Ellie I'm pretty sure."

  "I think they went on a hunt— not quite sure," Kaylynn chirped, wringing on a pair of jeans in the bucket of water in front of her, "What's Ellie doing anyway?" she pondered lightly as she stood to go hang the pair of jeans on the string across the backyard.

  The orange haired girl lifted a lazy shoulder. "I think she's trying to fix the power for the town. She said she was getting annoyed of using a lantern and candles," Auburn explained, a slight chuckle fleeing her lips.

  "Oh," Kaylynn giggled, grabbing another shirt from the dirty laundry pile.

  "Did Dina ever say who stabbed her?" Auburn asked quietly, curiously.

  The platinum girl hummed as she scrubbed a shirt. "No. She keeps saying she can't remember," she flashed a sad smile at the talk.

  Did Dina really not remember or did someone do something to keep her quiet?

  "Oh."

"I'm going to start making dinner, do you want to help me and eat with us?" Kaylynn smiled, hanging the last bit of the laundry.

  "I'm going to eat with Ellie a little bit later, but I'll help you prepare dinner," Auburn flashed a warm smile and they both cleaned up the materials they used for laundry.

  They both walked into the main house and began to prepare dinner. Kaylynn wanted to make soup and cheese bread, so they scrounged up the food they needed and began to prepare dinner.

  They made chit chat as they cooked, trying to make the most fun they could with the given circumstances. The other peers showed up for dinner, getting their bowels to eat.

  "Take a piece of cheese bread for Williams.!I remember you said she likes them," Kaylynn insisted, holding a piece of

  She took the paper towel with the food. "Thank you, love," Auburn smiled.

  "Are you sure you don't want to eat with us?"
Kaylynn frowned, her tone gentle.

  Auburn let out a sigh. "If I'm being completely honest," she paused, her eyes shifting to the peers at the table who were eating, "I don't feel very welcome here."

    Kaylynn's frown curved more. "I apologize," she said sincerely.

  "Not your fault," Auburn flashed a smile. She said goodbye to Kaylynn and made her way out of the house to go back to the house she and Ellie stayed at.

  She walked it side the house. " Els, I have-"

  Her veins ran cold as her heart sank.

  The paper towel with the bread had fallen from her hand and onto the floor, every muscle in her body was paralyzed as her eyes widened.

  "Close the door," Jessica demanded from the living room, standing next to the limp body of the auburn haired girl who was strapped to a chair.

  Ellie's body was sat in a chair, her body strapped to the chair with ropes, arms tied behind her back as her head hung down, eyes shut.
