"Alia wants me to sleep in my room." I told the boys.

"K, we'll be down here." Jack said.

"'Night." I said, walking back to my room.

I opened the door.  I sat on the bed and got under the covers.

My phone flashed a bright color.  I grabbed it and looked at the image on the screen.

Unknown Number: This is far from over, Marais.

There was also an image of someone holding up the middle finger.  I rolled my eyes.

Alia laid her head on my chest.  I played with her hair, and we both fell asleep.

****

I heard noises from the kitchen.  

"Get away from her!" I realized his voice as Jack.

"Leave her alone you d*rubber duck noise*ck!" Zach yelled.

I got to the kitchen.  Here's what I saw:

1. Anthony

2. Anthony holding Alia in a headlock.

3. Tears streaming down Alia's face

4. The boys fighting against Anthony

I ran and pushed Anthony, taking Alia and pushing her back.

I grabbed Anthony by the shoulders and pinned him against the wall.

"Next time I won't be so nice.  I'm letting you go this time.  If you come in contact to her ever again, you will go against us and the police." I warned him.  He nodded his head.  I let him go and he ran out the door.

The boys looked terrible.  Zach had a black eye and a bloody noise, Corbyn had bruises on his arms and a busted lip, Jack's hair was messier than usual but he came out okay, and Daniel had a bloody tongue and also a bloody noise.  

Alia got the worst of it.  Bruises covered her body, and red marks surrounded her arms.

"Are you okay, what did he do to you?" I asked.

"H-He tried to shove me into a room, but I fought back... and then he punched m-me a-and I yelled s-so the b-boys woke up..." She said.

"How'd he get in here?" I asked.

"We don't know." Daniel said.

Who knows...?
