The Power of Five: Unbound

Episode 2: Manor Sweet Manor

Gabby's POV
Day one being back and I honestly don't know what to do, I have no job, Kristal and I aren't speaking and all the girls are sleep. Anyway I look at my phone to see what time it is and noticed something big, something me and the girls should be celebrating on this beautiful Saturday, it's June 5th grandma's birthday!

I make it through the hallway, where all our rooms are across from each other, "RISE AND SHINE SLEEPY HEADS!" I scream at the top of my lungs. Shyann is always the first one up but the first one to go to sleep from what I remembered, and to my knowledge, I start seeing her door upon, "Hey Gabby?" She says like she wants to tell me something, "What?" I reply in excitement hoping she notices the same thing I did, "Would you please shut the hell up?!?!" And all my excitement dies down. "Well GoodMorning to you too." I say in disgust.

While I watch Shyann go back in her room, I just stand there waiting for the next sister to come out, "Gabster please, I miss you and all, but the noise has got to stop, Saturday's are our chill days." Brie says in a sleepy tone while walking sluggish. "Ugh where's Ashly and Kris?" I can't believe the girls don't know what today is. "They're in the attic." Brie said letting out an annoyed grunt. "They're looking at old memories we had with grandma, and earlier did you say Saturday morning? It's night it's a full moon." I give an "aha" look as in I was caught noticing I can never get anything pass Brie. "Well I just said that so y'all can get up, and obviously it worked so let's get our buts up in that attic, C'MON SHY!" Brie nods her head agreeing with my suggestion.

Shyann's POV
"I'M COMING!" I quickly snarled. Walking out my room I go straight to the attic. "Hey y'all!" I say wiping my eyes and mouth. I see my sisters all formed in a circle. "Hey Shybug!" Ashly says responding to my voice before completely turning around. "What y'all doing?" I said as I sat down joining them, which was funny that we were kinda sitting in a oldest to youngest way, almost like we were performing a ritual.

"Oh nothing, the usual everytime it's grandma's birthday." Kris says looking through the family photo album. As we we were reminiscing I felt like our bond as sisters were growing even Kristal and Gabby were laughing with each other and out of nowhere Gabby comes up with a crazy suggestion.

Gabby's POV
"We always look through these pictures every year, but we never look through the you know what!" I say reference the chest that's been locked up for as long as we can remember.

"Well haven't you thought about it being locked up for a reason, Gabrielle?" Kristal points out narrowing her eyes at me, and just to think we were getting along she uses my full name, the disrespect. I just simply roll my eyes challenging her asking, "But for what though?" Seeing as she can't come up with a reasonable answer, she rolls her eyes and starts tying her robe up while walking out the attic. I look to Ash and Brie they give me an uncertain look and walk out too, just leaving me and Shy.

"Well, what do you think?" I ask knowing Shy she honestly doesn't care long as it doesn't affect anything personal. "It's whatever!" Shy said shrugging her shoulders. "But how are we gonna get in? We don't have a key." I sit for a few seconds thinking about her words, then it comes to me. "Do you have a hairpin?" Already knowing the answer, this was just my way of asking. Shy starts feeling on her head till she finds one, "Here." Shy said reaching the hairpin in my hand. "Thanks love."

Shyann's POV
Looking at Gabby makes me wonder if she actually knows what she's doing. "Gabby if ain't got it by now, you just might as well stop." I said annoyed probably realizing the others were right. "C'mon Shy I thought you was the optimistic one, don't loose faith in me now, AHA GOT IT, WE'RE IN!"

"Awe damn!" I say disappointed realizing Gabby never fails at getting me in trouble. Gabby pulls out an old textbook like book named "The Book of Destiny"
