Half- Ruined (Book 2 in the Morph Trilogy)

Chapter Thirty Four

Zac

Something buzzes on my wrist and I sit up straight hitting my head on the top bunk. Kiera is sitting in a chair across from me laughing. I look down at my screen and see a wake up message from Kaine.  I stand up and throw on my jacket before heading to door.

"5A." Is all I say before slipping out of the room."

      *       *     *       *      *

We walk into Kaine's office expecting the worst.

"Ah you made it." Kaine says motioning for us to sit in front him. Two guards stand behind him on either side.

"Now I was thinking first we start off with you reciting your loyalties again, but then I would have to drag Skye and Jax in here-" He pauses but then smiles. "Oh wait Jax is dead, because you couldn't just give up." Kiera shoots out of the chair, eyes gleaming. Kaine looks up at her.

"Would you like to speak Kiera?"  I give her a look and she gives him a furious glance before sitting back down, arms crossed.

"I thought we would start off with the next phase for clensing the world." He says making the whole plan seem peacefully.
"Tomorrow 7:30 we set out and we come back in three days. I figure we can finish off three states maybe four? You will help with the serum and the herding." He looks around the room.

"Any objections?" Before anybody can get a word in Kaine butts in again "None, great you are dismissed."

I wait for Kaine to finish his boring lecture to Zac and Kiera before grabbing them outside of his door. I drag a protesting Zac and Kiera to my office and slam the door.

"Sit." I point to a chair.

"We're not dogs." Kiera whines. I point to Zac.

"He is." I say.  Kiera just rolls her eyes, and Zac ignores me, looking at the door. They take the two seats across from me. I pull out the watch and slide it over to Zac. Kiera intercepts it. She picks it up and exams it.

"Is this the C.L.A.W logo?"

"Yeah, it belonged to a very special member of the C.L.A.W."

"Who?" Kiera asks. I hesitate before answering.

"Your mother." I reply, waiting for things to start flying around the room. Instead silence.

"Is she dead?"  Zac asks.

"No."  I say.  What I don't metion is that she could be dead in the next couple of days.

"What about our dad?"  Kiera asks next. I'm caught off guard and almost choke, they were asking to many question. I sigh, I could make up some lie and be done with it. Or I could tell them the truth and watch as all he'll breaks loose.

All of a sudden something seems to be very heavy in my pocket. I pull out a crumpled piece of paper and stare at the writting. One sentance seems to pop out at me and I can hear her voice.

Tell them who you really are.

I throw the paper to the ground and look straight at Zac. This was going to be hard and I knew Zac would take it better then Kiera.  I take a deep breath before blurting out the words that could ruin my life.

"I am your father."
