Chapter 1
A thing attacks and Oliver falls in love
Shut up Echo.

{Echo}

I tried not to think about it.

«Echo, it's just a coincidence.» Oliver told me.

«Is it? Whenever I say I have a hunch bad things happen.»

«This is getting out of hand... Give me the necklace.» he said.

«No.»

«Echo, if you think something is wrong with it, get rid of it.»

"It's not the necklace I'm worried about. You never sleep on your stomach.»

«Stop being stupid.» he frowned.

«I am not being stupid.» I yelled and he got up.

«Take that necklace off.» he said carefully.

«It is not the necklace! What is this, Harry Potter?» I yelled and backed away.

«Then take it off! Give it to me!» he yelled back and grabbed my arm. His eyes turned red for a second, then back to their normal gray colour. That wasn't my brother.

I kicked that guy where it hurts and ran to the door.

I tried to open it but it was locked.

«Where's Oliver?» I asked.

«Not here.» the other guy said.

«I can see that, but that's not what I asked! Where is he?» I hissed. No reply. I grabbed a knife from my back pocket. I told you I am suspicious and insecure, don't judge me. You may carry pepper-spray, I carry a knife.

«You won't kill me.» he said.

«I have killed before.»

«You mean your dad? Maybe. But look at you now... Crying in the middle of the night because of the guilt.» well, that caught me off guard.

«I don't cry.» I replied. «What do you want?»

«The necklace.»

«Why?» I asked and he hissed.

«Echo? Who are you talking to?» Oliver asked from behind the door. At least he is not dead or anything.

«Oliver where's Alfred?» I asked him.

«He went to talk to Shelby.»

«Shelby is on her day off.» I replied.

«Echo what are you talking about? Open the door!» he tried the door.

«Break it!» I yelled and Oliver's copy-cat turned into mom.

«Put the knife down, Echo. It is rude.» the thing said and walked towards me.

«Echo who is in there?» Oliver asked and kept trying to open the door.

«Just break it!» I yelled again and backed away to the wall. "Mom" turned into dad.
