Lilly's POV

I look up at him and he looks down at me. "I'm okay..." I whisper. He frowns. Then he places his lips on my forehead.

I haven't felt that in a while. He pulls away and I am put down.
"What happened?" he asks. "Bill's back." I say. He widens his eyes.
"How did he--"

"I don't know how he got to my head. But Dip... I found this in the forest a while back." I say taking out the bracelet which was glowing all the different colors.
He inspects each charm. "These charms... Their... Whoa..." he says astonished.

"Yes well... Bill wants it. That's why he brought me there." I say.
"He offered..." I sighed. "He offered to leave us alone for good if I gave it to him.
"And....." He said. "... And I declined him." I say nervously. He smirks. "Good... That cheating dorito had it coming any way." he says. I giggle.

"You are such a dork..." I say. He shrugs. "Not as much of a dork as I was when we were kids!" he exclaims. "Yeah... But I miss that Dipper. The one who... Was excited to explore new parts of the forest... Always finding new creatures. Looking for adventure... I miss the old us." I say. "But you can't be stuck in the past. You gotta just... Keep going." I add. He nods and looks out the window...

Then back toward me. "You sure your okay? You... Looked like you were in a lot of pain." he says after a long minute of silence.

"Yeah... You know... Nothing lasts forever." I say.
He nods in agreement. "Nothing lasts forever..." I repeated silently.

{ Time skip to after the pitty party }

Garroth said that there was an old abandoned home that they stayed in. Which I now remember. Before hand we had went to some... Owner and he said that there were people with the last names Kate-Rose there.
It's so... Weird. Knowing that the life you thought you were living was a lie.

Gosh... Thinking about it makes my stomach twist. We make it to the house and it looked so run down that it barely even looked like anyone had lived there before.

Me and Laurence went in first to see around. Garroth and Dipper stayed outside planning where to move next if we find nothing.

We both carried flashlights looking around the room stealthily. "I'm gonna check upstairs.... Or at least what's left of it." I say. He nods and I go over to the old wooden steps. Just looking around. I carefully walk up and see a bedroom.

There was a long size bed, a desk with a bunch of papers on top, an end table next to the bed and a dresser with a mirror attached.
I checked the desk. I say down at the desk and looked at a few of the papers. I grabbed them, just in case, and open the drawer of the desk. I see old envelopes, a few dead bugs, and a battery which is probably useless.

I close it and walk over to the dresser. I side one of the 6 drawers was a baby blanket. It was white and blue with my name on it. It was fit for a small infant.

I put it in my bag and on the bed was half of a map.... I snatch it up and then see a picture on the table. It was of two children. One a bit and one a girl. Both infants and both had red hair.

It was me and a boy. I knew this because of the blanket. The boy infant had a blue and white one with the name, Michael.

Who is that? I thought to myself. Whoever it was... I was taking the picture in case it was important.
My hit was saying... Maybe I have a sibling. My head was saying Maybe it was just an infant friend...

But it was a 50/50 chance.

I put everything in my sachel carefully so nothing ripped. I didn't have room for the blanket so I held into it for now.
"Did you find anything?" Laurence asks from downstairs.
"Yeah... I think. Hold on." I yell back. I start walking when I fall through the floor. Yeah... That's how old this place was.

I some how landed on my feet. Which making the fall not hurtful. Laurence comes to check on me. "Whoa... Did you just--"

"Land on my feet? Yes." I say. I look up at the huge hole in the ground. The blanket was dangling from a price that had been sticking out.
I jump and swiftly grab it off.

"You found... A blanket?" he questions with an eyebrow raised. "Actually... Well yes... It's my baby blanket. But I also found this." I pull out the half of a map.

I wanted to keep the photo to myself... For now. The map was starting from here.

"Do you think they were planning to escape some where?" I asked. Laurence shook his head. "More like some one or some thing." he says.

"So you think they were running? From what?" I asked.
He followed the path with his eyes Until he hit the ripped side of the map.
"Where's the other half?" he asked. "It's not up there." I say.

"Do you think..." he started. "That they have the other half? IF they are still alive? There's only one way to find out..."
I respond. He hands me back the map and I put it away. "You find anything?" I asked him.

"You mean besides the dead bugs and rats... No. Nothing. Guess you were more fortunate then me!" he says. I shrug. "Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction." I stated.
He smirks. "Jhon F. Kennedy... You really think you can out-quote me don't you!" he says.
I raise an eyebrow. "I don't think... I know!" I say.

He laughs and so do I. "We should probably get going and tell the others about the map." I say getting back to the main reason were here.
"Yeah. Lets go." he says.

We show them the map and we agree to follow it. We would head out today since it was around only 3 something. Then see where we go from there.

We walked the path for what seemed ( and probably was ) like hours. When we finally set camp. I wanted to Keep my guard up so I kept watch. Just in case.

I gripped into my sword in case something popped up. I never really trusted these woods.
Never have and never will.

Garroth and Laurence wanted me to wake one of them up in a little bit for their turn. I guess they thought I would get tired.
Well tonight I don't think I would be able to sleep. That photo was just taunting me like a baby and it's pacifier.

I needed to know... Where are my parents? Who are they? Why did they leave me? Who was that in the photo? When will this end...
Not everything ends though.

Some things just Keep going on and on and on and on....

*Steps on a Sri I and it snaps*

"STAY BACK!" I say. But then I realized it was the twig I stepped on.
I sighed. Am I being paranoid?
Your nothing but a little pest, a thorn in everyone's side.

I remembered those words loud and clear.

I am a pest. I am always causing trouble and problems...

I can't think like that right now though....
I have my friends to protect. My family to protect.

( I really wish there were more smarter people in the world. Not calling you guys stupid! I swear! You guys are the best! In talking about the people outside of wattpad! Ugh... )
