I walked into the library, Dad looked up from talking to Myers who looked scared out of his mind.

" Did I interrupt something here?"

I asked, walking over to Dad and hugging him, eyeing the new person. He had grabbed me a cup of coffee which got him off the I will kill in three seconds if he say something wrong too maybe I will smack him on the head for pissing me off.

" No we are done here, When will you be getting something to eat?"

Shrugging I walked over to Abe and took his breathing apparatus and started to place it where it was supposed to go. Abe nodded and walked up the stairs into his tank. Dad nodded and then he and Myers left, probably went to talk to Red.

" Hey Abe, is Dad hiding something from me?"

I asked, flipping through a random book, shutting it when I saw a picture of a demon. That's what I was...but I didn't really like to think that.

" He might...might not. Depends on what you are looking for."

Sending a glare at him, he knew perfectly well what I was looking for.

" Abe what would happen....if Dad left? Who will be here for Red and I?

Glancing up at him I saw he just shrugged.

" I don't know, but you will always have Red and myself here for you...maybe Liz when she comes back."

Nodding I couldn't help but miss Liz. For the longest time I was the only girl here then she showed up, thirteen times she quit and left us. She always came back, but it got to the point I gave up on trying to figure her out. She kept her facial expressions to the minimum so it was hard to read her without entering her mind.

" Abe, am I a freak for trying to look human?"

I whispered, I kept seeing the way Myers looked at me when I let my features shift.

" No, you are being you. I think it's amazing how you are able to do so, yet your brother cannot."

Nodding I let my features slip into my demonic like state. Red might have to saw off his horns but me, I got to keep mine. They were honestly kinda cute, just tiny little curls on either side of my temple. I walked over to a large chair and curled up with a book,

" Abe, wake me up when it's time to go please."

" Will do Sparky."

Sending one final glare at him I started to read, then slip into oblivion.

-time skip-

Abe was taking off his breathing apparatus and his spandex suit, he looked unsure about going down into the dark water, and I didn't blame him. Red held out a small vial of something and Abe took it,

"There you go, Doctor. This should cover your tailfin -- On loan from the Vatican, a bone from Saint Dionysius. Ugh. Looks like a pinky."

Abe looked at it then back at Red.

"Remind me why I keep doing this."

I shrugged and fought the urge to tell him not to go, something wasn't right down there, I could just feel it.

"Rotten eggs and the safety of mankind."

Red said looking down at the hole, Abe nodded,

" Oh right."

Then the fishman turned on his locater and jumped, into the dark waters. I wish I was able to breathe underwater, something wasn't right.

" Red. I'm...worried for Blue."
