Kaira
OMG! When I fainted, Kyle caught me! How awesome is that? Anyway, we entered the house, and me and Kyle have rooms next to each other! Again, how awesome is that? Well luck is amazing so far...let's hope I don't jinx it, but Charlie seems to be angry at me. I have no idea what I have done. Well, that creepy lady who owns this shack has called us down for a meeting or something like that in 10 minutes. So,I just change into a tank top and sweatpants and run downstairs. When I come down the stairs, Kyle was there but Charlie wasn't. "Ah, you're here, Kaira. Be a dear and run up and call your sister down here, would you?" "Of course, Mara," I say. The old lady had asked us to call her that, for some reason. I ran upstairs and called Charlie, who was facing away from me and seemed to be unpacking.
"Hey, Charlie-" She turns around and throws a dagger at me, which I dodge at the last second. I stare at her, shocked. "Sorry, I've been really jumpy lately," she mutters. This isn't the only time she's done that. When I came over to borrow some pillows earlier, she almost strangled me. "Well, that's okay." Even though it really wasn't. "By the way, Mara is calling us downstairs," I say. "Who's Mara?" "Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you about what happened during your zone out. Well, she's our host." "Okay, thanks for telling me, I'll be down in a sec. Bye!" Boy, was she eager to get rid of me, I think as she ushers me out.

Charlene
Phew, was that close! I turn back to look at what I was doing after Kaira leaves. I continue examining the internal chip of the cyborg we had fought. 'Operation Memory Transfer & Reprogramming',well that sounds like so much fun. It looks like a normal chip, but when you examine it you notice some weird syllables on the side and it gives off a very creepy aura. At that exact second Kaira butted in without even knocking. How rude is that? Remembering that Kaira called me down for the meeting, I get up from the armchair I'm sitting on and pull my gloves off. I stare at my left hand in shock. The tips of my fingers are metal.
