The sequel

Chips: calming screams

Ima write because... why not! I had ideas for this chapter before. But then skittles chapter gave me new ideas, so I'm going to try to fit it all in.

Sky

My eyes shoot open to a very high pitch scream, I run downstairs to see sparrow sending a trail of rodents out the door, and Edward sodding/screaming on the couch, his knees against his chest, and his arms around his legs. "I thought you died! I was already planning a party in my head!" I joke, trying to slow down my racing heart. His scream almost gave me a heart attack! He ignores me and rocks back and forth on the couch.

"Is he going to be okay?" Harlie asks. Edward buries his face in his knees. "No." Harold says bluntly. "There's no way of calming him down, so it's going to be a long night." He continues, patting his brothers head.

I slam my pillow into my face for the hundredth time. 'Shut up shut up shut up!' I yell in my head angerly. Edward has been screaming non stop for two hours straight. What the hell is wrong with him?!

He has a huge fear of rodents I guess.

Harold

I hate to see him like this, he is my big brother after all. Even if he betrayed me. "Hey, you ok?" I ask, greeting him once again. "N-no" he stutters. "I-I'm sorry." He sobs. "For what?" I ask sitting down next to him. "F-for being such a b-baby." He cries. "You can't help it." I object. I don't know where his unnatural fear of rodents comes from, he won't tell me, but obviously something horrible happened.

....

He is gone the next morning. I'm not worried though. Whenever Edward gets scared he always bounces back on his feet and forgets the whole thing.

"Yay! Last day of school for the year!" I hear Emma shout. She was right. It was December 20th. They are off of school until January 10th. Sky silently comes down the stairs, looking disheveled. She looks at the empty couch and her eyes widen. I small smile creeps on her face. "You finally did it huh. Ended him once and for all." She says looking at me. "Shh. You didn't hear anything, now go each your breakfast." I whisper to her. She runs to the kitchen.

"Where's Edward?" Harlie asks. "I'm not sure." I say. "Didn't sleep well?" I joke looking at the tired Harlie in front of me. "No, I sleep perfectly well. Screams of terror are so calming." She says rolling her eyes. "I'm sorry." I say hugging her. "It's ok." She mumbles.

At 4:01 pm sky comes bursting through the door. "I'm grabbing a knife!" She yells, heading towards the kitchen. What is she doing? Harlie comes dashing after her. "No! Don't, he was just kidding, it was a joke!" Harlie yells, running to the kitchen. "Nope! He's dead, he had his chance!" Sky yells, I rush to the kitchen to see sky pulling out a butcher knife. "This will do nicely~" she chuckles, and starts to head out of the kitchen. "Sky!" Harlie yells. I reach out to grab sky, to stop her from killing whoever she was going to kill, but she quickly ducks my reach and runs past me.

Harlie and I chase her outside. She runs down the block and meets up with Emma, sparrow, and a boy, who seemed about 12, he had brown hair, and light blue eyes., I was the one who helped Sam move, I think his name was lake, or something.. wait, his name is river.

"Time to die~" sky laughs holding the knife to river. The boy holds up his hands in surrender. "What did you do?" I ask him. "I didn't do anything!" He yells, his voice turning high pitch. Sky seemed to laugh at this. "River here!-" she says pointing to the boy. "keeps calling me names!" Sky shouts. "Like what?" I ask. Before she can answer river interrupts, "cupcake, I would never do that to you." He says sweetly. I now understand what is happening. "See what I'm talking about!" Sky yells. "Sky, don't kill him." I sigh. She stares at me, contemplating whether she should listen to me, or kill him on the spot. "Why?" She questions. "Because he's a boy, and boys are stupid." I say raising an eyebrow at the boy. The boy looks away from me nervously. She seems satisfied with this answer, and spins on her heel, walking back towards the house. Emma, sparrow, and harlie follow after her.
