"Zero! Start!" Trenth shouted and it began. When it ended Jude came out as the winner. After the congratulations and such, all of them went on their ways.

"Wasn't that fun?" Jake asked Trenth who nodded.

"See? I told you, you have to let things go for awhile and have fun!" Jake said and grinned.

When they arrived to the mansion they found everyone playing monopoly. Jake ran towards them and asked to join in. Jake turned in the direction where his brother was at and waved him over.

"Play with us. We never played this game." Jake said and Trenth also joined in.

But what they didn't know is that someone is watching their every move. Or it could be a group.

《With Lona

Lona was in bed asleep but her phone suddenly rang, signaling a text message. She groaned and lifted her left arm to get her phone from the dresser. She lifted her head up groggily and looked at the time on her phone. It was 5:35 in the morning. She sighed and clicked the alert. She read the text and in an instant, all tiredness got washed away. She quickly got dressed and took her car keys, phone, and her bracelet that Cyrus made for her when they were kids that Cyrus said to keep memories in. She ran quietly down the staircase and out of the house to the garage.

She went inside her white Mercedes Benz sls amg and started it up and pressed the button on the remote to open the large, garage doors. When she got to a mall, she got out and teleported to the corner of the building. She checked her phone again and the message said,

"Go to Century's Latest. Teleport to near the back corner of the mall on your right and see the show." Unknown phone number.

She sighed and kept thinking of what kind of show they meant. Suddenly the clicking of heels disturbed her train of thought. She looked a bit around the corner of the mall and saw a woman that looked like in her mid-20's wearing a plaid black and white skirt, a gray button jacket, and her sky blue shirt was concealed by her jacket. She was also wearing a few gold jewelry and she had medium hazel hair. Lona noticed the woman carrying a few shopping bags humming a light toon.

But before Lona got the chance to look around the woman she was hit hard in the head with a large rock.

The woman was walking calmly but felt she was being watched.

.........Few minutes ago before Lona passed out.......

A brunette was out shopping and she lost track of time to find that she was the only one there. A shadow figure moved across the wall and a cold shiver went up the woman's spine. She stopped in panic and quickly turned around, cautious. She walked carefully across the empty road and kept looking in every direction. Finally she spotted the figure and in the blink of an eye her body was sprawled across the ground, with her head decapitated.

A security officer hired by the manager of the mall was boredly walking along the sides of the large mall. When he was walking he felt something warm that he accidentally kicked and suspiciously got out his flashlight. He pointed the bright yellow light at the heat source and found that it looked like a teenage girl, about the age of 16. He noticed she was unconscious and found a large rock near her head. He looked confused but decided to bring her to the department. He picked her up onto his shoulder to bring her to the police department. He walked around the corner and almost dropped the girl on his broad shoulder from shock and fear. He was unintentionally stepping back slowly from the bloody body of a woman. He stared in complete shock at the head lying a few meters from the body.
