Cierra

Jordan's POV

Cierra is my sister, if you didn't know. She doesn't live with us, but I visit her a lot. So she's the perfect person to go to. "Do you know where she lives?", asked Adam. "Both of us.", said Ruth. "Get in the car.", said Adam. I got in the driver's seat. "Can you drive?", asked Adam. Ruth slapped him. "Ow!", he yelled. "Of course he can drive he's not stupid!", yelled Ruth. "Sorry!", said Adam. I started up the car and started to drive. Ruth kept looking back for agents, but we were safe. We parked in Cierra's driveway. I knocked on the door. Cierra opened it. "Jordan?", she asked. "I haven't seen you in a couple of years." "Yeah, well we need to come in.", I said. "But you're covered in mud.", she said. "This is a matter of life or death," said Ruth. "Forget about the carpet and focus on your brother's life." Cierra thought for a moment, then let us in. "You guys can take showers, and I'll clean your clothes.", she said.

Afterwards...

We sat on the couch. "How is this a matter of life or death?", Cierra asked. "They found out.", I said. Cierra put her hand over her mouth. "So what happened when they did?", she asked. "Me and Jordan were taken away to the Aperture Science Facility labs.", explained Ruth. "And me and Adam were apart for a month." Her expression went to sad. "Two best friends split apart, horrible.", said Cierra. "We're not best friends anymore.", said Adam. Cierra gasped. "What do you mean?", she asked. "Someone waited until after 13 years after we met to tell us that me and Adam, are brother and sister.", explained Ruth. "That someone is Mitch.", stated Adam. "And of course I slapped him a few times.", said Ruth. "But if I didn't know him, I probably would've done that one mortal kombat move where..." "Don't say it you violent person!", said Adam. "That's, violient, to you.", said Ruth. "Sorry, childhood memories are coming back. But still, there's a mortal kombat fatality where one person will pull off your head and your spinal cord will be attached. Isn't that cool!" I could see Cierra throw up in her mouth a bit. "And what's with the violient thing?", asked Adam. Then, Ruth had a flashback.

Ruth's POV

I had a flashback. Me, Alex, and our two other friends were on the bus. We all had a species we called ourselves. Alex was derp King. Our friend Josh was a fuiemer. ( fwee-mer ). Our friend Izzy, we called Fluffy, was a bacca. Which so made me think about Jerome, and how he had died in the war. Then, we were trying to figure out my species. Then we finally decided on a violient. ( Vee-oh-lee-ent ). I then thought about how much I had talked about mortal kombat that day. I also thought about Fluffy, and Jerome. The flashback ended, and I started to cry. Adam comforted me. I think he cares too much about me, I thought. "What was it?", asked Jordan. "We were on the bus," I explained. I explained the entire story, and finished by talking about Fluffy and Jerome. "Oh...", said Adam. "Well, Fluffy sounds like an awesome person." "She was.", I said, stopping my crying. "You guys are aloud to stay here as long as you want," said Cierra. "I don't want Jordan getting taken away." "And Ruth," said Adam. "You are not to set a foot outside or contact anybody." "Why can't I?!", i asked, almost yelling at him. "Because I'm your big brother and I'm trying to keep you safe.", he said sternly. "You worry too much!", I yelled. "What if I want to contact Alex, or one of the guys?" "You can't!", yelled Adam. "You can't tell me what to do.", I said, pulling out my iPod. Adam took it from my hand. "Give it back!", I yelled. "You're not aloud to use it!", he yelled. "Stop!", I yelled. "Why do you have to be such a jerk!" "Because I care about you!", he yelled. "You're the worst big brother EVER!", I yelled. "And as a child I looked up to you. Now I realize what a jerk you are." I walked upstairs, stomping. "I can't believe I looked up to him.", I mumbled.

Adam's POV

I looked at Ruth's iPod. "She looked up to me?", I said. "You really do worry too much.", said Jordan. "Just saying." A tear rolled down my cheek. "I just... I never had a sibling. I just didn't want to lose her like she lost the three others.", I said. "I... I want to protect her. She's the closest person in my entire life. I just... I don't want to live my life without her." I put my head in my hands, and sobbed. "I know how you feel.", said Jordan. "During the war, it was the same deal with Cierra. I wouldn't let her out of the base." "Even though I wanted to get to contact someone else.", said Cierra. "I was over protective.", said Jordan. "And it made her really upset. Until I realized, I can't do this, and make her unhappy. I had to find a way to protect her and make her happy." I looked up. "That's it.", I said. "We need to do the same with Ruth." We ran upstairs to where Ruth had gone. We opened the door. "I'm sorry...", I started. Ruth was gone, and the window was wide open.

Ruth's POV

Adam can't tell me what to do, I thought. I started waking through the woods. He's being too overprotective, I thought. And to think I looked up to him. I saw a flashlight, and ducked down. Agents, I thought. I held my breathe. A couple came down. My amulet started to glow, thinking I need light. I tried to hide the light, but it shown through my hands. "There.", said an agent. I got up and ran. They ran after me. I suddenly felt static shock all over. Taser, I thought before my vision went black.

Adam's POV

I climbed out the window, and looked around. It was so dark outside, I couldn't see very well. Then, I saw the light of a flashlight. "Cierra," I whispered up to the window. "Stay with Jordan." She nodded, and I ran toward the flashlight, staying low. I ducked behind a tree. I saw them carrying something. Someone more like. I got a closer look, and realized it was Ruth. She seemed to be passed out. I grabbed my pistol from my back pocket and aimed at an agent. I shot, and the agent fell forward. The three other agents held their guns in different directions. I shot them down. Ruth they there on the ground. I ran over to her. She had shock waves going through her body. Taser, I thought. I picked her up bridal style, and carried her to the house. I went through the door, and Jordan and Cierra ran up to me. "What happened?", she asked. "Ruth almost got caught.", I explained. "They got her with a taser, now she's put of it." I laid her on the couch. She kept having shockwaves. "I want to keep her safe, but I don't want to let her out of the house.", I said. "I think keeping her in the house is the right thing to do.", said Jordan. "Good night.", said Cierra. I waved to them, and her and Jordan went upstairs. I knelt next to Ruth. I saw her open her eyes. "I'm not going out of the house anymore.", she whispered. "Good.", I said. I gave her back her iPod. "Thanks.", she whispered. She turned it on and went on YouTube. "I'm just not happy when I can't use my iPod.", she started. "It gets me upset. Technology is practically my life. It's like my amulet, where one of my powers should be technology. That would be cool." "I guess.", I said. I carried Ruth upstairs, and laid her down on a bed next to mine. "Good night.", I said. "Sleep tight.", she said. "And don't let the squids bite.", we said together. I fell right to sleep. Everything is going well, I thought.
