We are extremely sorry for not updating for a year... School was rough... And we couldn't meet...
But now, we'll be meeting more often(hopefully), but our updates will still be kinda irregular.
Thanks for sticking with us for all this time! It means a loooooooooot!!!
Hope you enjoy!

As soon as they were gone, I rushed to Ben and untied him.
"Are you okay?" His left eye was swollen and black, he had several cuts and bruises on his hands and legs, and he looked exhausted.
"Are you okay?" He gestured to the bruise on my head.
"It's nothing compared to yours."
"Hey! We're not dead yet, you know?" Hi called struggling with the ropes.
I went to the other two and Coop and untied them as well.
Shelton massaged his wrists and sighed, "That could've been worse."
"We should really treat those wounds of yours, Ben." I went back to him.
"I'm fine."
"You're clearly not fine!" I shrieked, causing him to jump slightly.
"We could've gone to the bunker..." Shelton muttered.
"The bunker's gone!" I snapped, "My house."
"Your house?" Hi asked, "But your parents-"
"Do you have a better idea? Besides it's closer and your parents ask too many questions."
"Alright!" Hi put his hands up in surrender, "Let's go."
The boys went over to Ben and helped him get up, I picked up an unconscious Coop, and we made our way to my house.
Let's hope Whitney is asleep. Hi can cover up easily if it is only Kit.
The short but back- breaking journey soon came to an end. I rang the doorbell with my fingers crossed.
No answer.
"What's that?" Shelton tried to point to under the doormat, without letting go of Ben.
I knelt down to find an envelope. It had the house keys and a note from Kit.
Dear Victoria,
Whitney and I have gone out for dinner since you didn't turn up. It's no problem though. You'll find everything in the fridge. We'll be home only tomorrow as we are staying over at Whitney's friend' s place. Be sure to eat.
Yours lovingly,
Kit.
I laughed as I turned the key in the lock.
Well, that was lucky.
"Set him down on the couch, let me get the first aid kit." I told the boys as I put Coop down gently.
I returned quickly with the kit in my arms, sitting next to Ben, who was lying down. The other two plopped down on the cushions, exhausted .
Those poor things must've had a hard time too.
I looked back at Ben.
I didn't waste any time in treating his wounds. They looked serious. To me at least.
"So?" Hi asked, "What now?" He was sprawled on the couch, eyes closed and sighing deeply, "Our bestest friends have some pretty new flares and our previous bestest friends joined them and we haven't seen the extent of their power yet. We also can't flare ourselves for some reason and will keep getting owned if we don't find out anything about it... No big deal..."
Shelton groaned, "You didn't have to remind us..."
I chucked ice packs at them.
"Ow!"
"Ouchie!"
"Can both of you shut it?"
They fell silent and only hissed once in awhile when they placed the packs on their wounds.
"So now what?" Ben muttered.
"I don't know." I admitted, "Chance and Ella should know..."
"Later." Hi whined.
"Yeah, we're tired..." Shelton mumbled.
"Later it is then." I sighed, "Stay here for the night."
I got no reply, just deep breathing and soft snores.
I cuddled up to the sleeping Coop and whispered, "Good night, guys."

"Hello? Who is this?"
"Good evening, ma'am." A cold voice was heard on the other end.
"I already made it clear that I am not to be disturbed-" The annoyed woman was cut off.
"I am not promoting anything here, ma'am. Hear me out please, this concerns your offspring."
There was a moment's silence.
"My Hiram? What are you talking about?"
"Well, do not fret, ma'am. I am just delivering a warning."
"About wha-?"
"Watch your offspring's friends and of course, your offspring. Gamma out."
The woman's face had an expression of bewilderment, "What? Wait! What do you-? Hello?"
The other end of the line cut.
