Queen of the elements (Book 4 of The Fire Within)

Part 66: Rash

(Y/n and Abigail join the rest of the family in the living room where they are dicussing Ben and Jennifer.)

Lila: I don't understand. What? You just let him go?

Luther: Well, how was I supposed to know Ben was infected with this... whatever this thing is?

(Luther starts eatung the pastries from the table while Abigail sits down and Y/n goes to stand next to Five.)

Five: Great work, Luther. Really great. 

Y/n: Let's keep in mind that Ben is a ground adult and has free will. It's not all Luther's fault.

Luther: Thank you, Y/n. See, it's not my fault. 

Y/n: I said it's not all your fault. It's still a little your fault. 

Luther: How? You said it yourself, he's a grown man. 

Y/n: Yes, but a grown man on parole, who you agreed to be incharged of and you don't even know where he is. 

Reginald: You said their was a rash on his arm? 

Abigial: A rash?! What did it look like?

Luther: I dunno. It was just kind of... you know, it kind of looked like that thing Klaus caught when he came home from Ibiza. 

Diego: Are you a doctor? Or do you just play one at bachorette parties? 

Luther: Hey! I am a professional dancer. 

Abigail: Luther, was there anything unusual about this rash? 

Luther: No. It was just, you know, red. (he took a bite of a cookie.) And glowing. And pulsating. 

Five: You didn;'t think maybe that was worth bringing up?

Luther: I just thought it had to do with our powers coming back. 

Y/n: For future reference Luther, rashes aren't supposed to glow or pulsate. Powers or not, that's not normal.

Luther: I mean, we've all been having issues. I know I have. 

Reginald: I've heard enough.

(Reginald starts walking away making Abigail's eyes widen and everyone else to look  concerned.)

Y/n: Where are you going? 

(He leaves the room and comes back in a minute later with a shotgun.)

Lila: Whoa! What are you doing?
