Undina

She sobbed. Abigail was sobbing. Maxwell hated her, who else actually hated her? She tilted her face up to where the sky was, above the tank. "Why?" She screamed. "Why me?

As silence followed, she screamed in frustration. Why was He ignoring her? She wanted to yell at someone, if it had to be Him, so be it.

Maxwell shot out of bed. Abigail, how could he say that? He needed to clear his head. He needed to take a walk, or do something, anything.

As he cursed himself, for his stupidity, he heard someone inside of Malcolm's and Tiberiu's room.

"Why do I have to do every fucking thing myself?" A boy muttered. "The girls rely on me. Why can't they get themselves out?"

Maxwell gasped and pressed his ear to the door.

"Of course I would need them back. It's all a part of the plan, for Nerezza." The boy snapped. He seemed to be talking to someone.

"Yes, they don't know it's me. Besides, Nerezza needs life again. It's growing hungry, and last time that happened, well you remember what happened with the dinosaurs, right?" The boy responded to the someone.

Maxwell's eyes bugged out.

"Yes, I have a record. Isabella and Basia to Pyralis, though they are in a Limbo between Pyralis and Vita. Perlita to Undina, but I can't reach her yet. Fleur was sent to Sylva, though she figured out the truth and managed to get into Celia, then Undina. And Abigail has made her way into Undina from Celia." The boy reported.

Maxwell froze at the mention of Abigail.

"Wait-they are in Celia? So if Abigail or Fleur get out of Undina, or even Perlita I guess, they could meet them? That's bad. That's really bad, shite." The boy panicked.

Maxwell had heard enough. He barged into the room, to see...

Tiberiu and Malcolm sleeping peacefully. "Guys?"

They woke up groggily. "What, mate?" Malcolm asked.

"Yeah, it's like midnight." Tiberiu added in annoyance.

"I thought I heard...never mind. I'm just a little on edge, sorry." Maxwell apologized, walking out of the room.

As he backed out, he saw Malcolm flipping him off, while Tiberiu just rolled his eyes at his roommate before lying back down.

Maxwell let out a breath. Who was the liar?

He let out a sigh. That was close, he didn't know Maxwell was standing right outside. His roommate fell back asleep instantly. How much did Maxwell hear? Did Maxwell deduce that it was him? If Maxwell knew, he'd blab to the other two. The other two were afraid of Him. He wasn't afraid, why would one fear themselves? He lay back down, before writing something with a strange pen, one with which the ink disappeared.
