Abandoned

Chapter 9

A Fresh Start

Eight years after that escape, we lived with some friends outside the city. When they saw me they asked what happened. We explained the situation and even showed them the security footage. At first they thought we had photo shopped everything and that I was just wearing a costume and thought we were crazy. Then 6982, just straight up walked through the wall like it was the front door. Then they were really convinced.
One day while I was telling there youngest son, Dominic what had happened, I heard police siren outside. My friend, Nathan, and his parents told me and my uncle Nicolas to head into the attic. 6982 followed us as well and we hid there for two days. On the second day 6982 was getting restless and decided to take a peek at what was happening. He said he just saw plastic covering the whole house. He also saw people in some nuclear suit. They we decontaminating the house and were told to stay out of the attic. We made sure that we were quite. Then suddenly the door opened slowly. It's creaking noise echoed through the whole attic. 6982 hid in the dark corner I hid between some boxes and so did my uncle. We hid there for about twenty minutes until one of the men came and started taking up boxes. Slowly he carefully checked what was inside every single box. Then he came to the side my uncle and I were hiding. He took up the box and as soon as he was about to open it Nathan was standing behind him. "What are you doing up here? I thought I told you guys not to come up here." He chased him out and gave us the clear. This all went on for a few months. During those months I decided that at least one of us had to look normal. We worked tirelessly just to make something that could return me to normal or hide my grotesque figure. Any spear time Nathan had away from school he would help us. After one whole year we came up with something that could return me to human, but it was temporary.
A week later I got a job at a local burger place and a second job as a babysitter. In total I would make $200.00 a week. Nathan's parents even gave me a little more on the side. I went and looked for a house and got a two bed room house outside the city. I didn't want to leave my friend but to keep him safe I had to. I said goodbye, and 6982 carried us underground routes so no one could see us. We went inside as soon as we reached. 
From that day I've been living in this location for a long time. Nathan would usually visit once and a while just to say hi or things like that. So far nobody from any agency's have come to my house.... which just pretty much means, so far... so good.
