Stones of life ( oh hold )

Chapter 7

Unknown POV
"Do you think she'll figure it out?" Asked a deep voice.

"She's to stupid. Her mom and grandmother couldn't, what makes you think she could?" Said another voice this one lighter. Like a woman's voice.

" but this one seems different. And her little boy friend could cause some problems. He's to smart for his own good. We need to do some research on him. In the meantime keep watching the girl. We don't want our little friend to get to her before we do" the deeper voice said with a smirk on his face.

" yes we don't now do we? Let's send a message and see if they'll stay out of what does not need to be reborn again." Said the high pitched voice.

"GRACE! You have no food in your house what so ever!" Joey screamed from down stairs in frustration. Cabinets and doors could be heard opening as Joey searched for food.

" Fine we'll drive to Walmart for some more. But first let me take a shower." Grace yells back.

" Can I join you?" Asked Joey from the kitchen, which eared him a hell no and a door slamming up stairs. Chuckling to himself Joey walked into the living room and turned on the tv to watch while grace was in the shower singing loudly to green day.  After her lovely shower grace walked down stairs. Right before she could enter the kitchen the door bell rang. Wondering who would be at her house at 5:00 In the morning. Shrugging it off she walked to the door and opened it. Looking around she couldn't see anyone." What the heck. Stupid kids." She grumbled to herself before closing the door she notice a letter on the ground. Picking it up she walked inside and sat down on the couch next to Joey. " wonder what's in the letter." Joey said while turning back to the tv. Looking down at the letter in her hand she opened it

Dear my little friends,
I hope you liked that adventure you went on yesterday. It was so fun watching you argue and bicker the whole time. I just hope you know what your getting yourself  into. Many have tried to find the stones but failed. If you wish to live another day. I suggest you stop looking. Because you'll never find them. I wish you the best of luck on this not so forgiving journey. In time we'll meet, but not now. Goodbye my little friends. Till we meet. Just
Remember I'll be watching you grace and Joey.

By the time grace finished reading this she was shacking. " J..Joeey? " she asks while stuttering. Glancing over Joey looked at her with wide eyes. "Grace? What's wrong?" He questions while wrapping a arm around her and pulling her into his body. Looking at her hands he see's the note. Grabbing it he reads it once. Looking back at the still terrified grace. He pulled her even closer, whispering smoothing words into her ear. " hey I'm right here. No one is going to get you. Not when I'm around. You'll be fine. We have each other to look out for. It's allways been and allways will be. I'm not leaving you so calm down." He said while rubbing her back. After a couple of minuets, grace finally calmed down. " sorry about that....It's just I didn't think someone else would know about the stones." She mumbled while looking at her hands. Finally noticing how close Joey was she stated to blush.
" it's ok. I'm here. Let's go to Walmart I'm starving." Joey said while standing up and pulling grace with him.  " hehe ok Mr.I need to eat all the time. Let's go. I'll get the keys." Grace said walking away. Smiling to herself she looked over her shoulder to see Joey staring at her. Which caused her to blush more, wiping her head back around hoping he didn't see her blush. Walking into the kitchen. She grabbed her keys. Failing to notice the figure out side the kitchen window in the back yard.  Walking out of the kitchen she also failed to notice that the creature was looking right at her with it's face stained in blood and an angry look on it's face. " hey! Joey we need to go back to the attic later and get the rest of the stuff in the chest. " grace said ,walking into the living room she grabbed joeys jacket dragging him out of the house and away from the football game on the tv. " Hey! I was watching that!" Joey pouts. " come on your the one who wanted food. So lets go." She said while pushing him into the car and sitting the door. Walking over to her side, she got in and drove  away. Once again failing to notice the figure on her front steeps.
