"WWWWAAAHHH!!!!" The baby cried as smoke continued filling the room as the fire was burning.
A woman somehow was still alive in the building even though there was no visible entrance or exit. The baby kept on crying as more smoke filled the room, making it hard for the woman to see. The woman ran through rooms, attempting to pick up people in which still had a chance of survival. The people she picked up? Zero at the time. Then, she ran into the center room and saw a crying baby lying in an unconscious women's lap. She picked up the baby and took the mother too. She managed to pick up 7 more people. She heard the firefighters trying to extinguish the place and heard how people were telling the firefighters to just let the place burn. The woman ran down the stairwell, which was not yet on fire. When she reached the bottom floor, the door was blocked. The woman grabbed an empty fire extinguisher and shattered the glass on the glass door as she was coughing out the smoke. She dragged the people out and left them on the ground for the ambulance to deal with them. The ambulance thanked her, but was surprised when she revealed the crying baby to them, but then quickly took her. She attempted to go towards her husband, and because of the smoke, she continued coughing and hacking. The ambulance quickly went to assist her, and she turned around to tell them that she doesn't need help, but as soon as she tried to, she passed out.******
"One second sweetie I think I forgot something." Mom said pulling away from my hug.
"Really? What did you forget? I can go get for you!" I exclaim happily.
"No, you won't know where it is." Mom responds.
"You can tell me." I say.
"No, I don't want you to hurt yourself. I'll get it myself." Mom replies quickly before disappearing into the house.
"You...we'll talk later." I cover up quickly before Verlynn becomes suspicious. Then, I quickly entered the house without looking back. After entering the house, I instantly head up the sets of stairs to my bedroom. Relvin and Verlynn soon follow.
"Um, hang on a second guys, I need to change." I say while closing the door. Relvin and Verlynn nod before waiting.
"Okay, only Relvin can come in!" I shout. Relvin opens the door and quickly closes it.
***Verlynn
No doubt they're discussing how to hide their true powers from me. I mean, I'd do the same. I'd do it more discreetly though. It's a little too obvious the way Yavara's doing it. The good thing is that this confirms it, both Relvin and Yavara are Humaverans. But that's weird though, I never thought I'd see two Humaverans so close to each other.
***Yavara
"Ok! You can come in now!" I shout. Verlynn walks through the door. Then, she stops.
"Hey—um, if you guys were in the middle of discussing something important, I could've waited, you don't need to rush." she states.
"Nah, we're just drawing on Relvin, it's fine! It'll wash off." I respond.
We continued drawing all over Relvin, and he ended up looking like a hot mess. He joked that if his parents come over for something and they see him like this, he's throwing us under the bus. I assured him that won't happen.
"Alright, I need to take a shower and wash all of this off. Be back in 20." Relvin says. Verlynn and I wave him goodbye as he leaves my bedroom. I look through my phone, scrolling through messages and responding to them. After a while, I look up to notice Verlynn playing with her school clothes.
"Why?" I ask.
"Why what." Verlynn responds.
"Why are you so determined to prove I'm a Humaveran when I'm not." I state. I can tell I hit a bullseye the way she reacted.
"I'm....just curious." She replies.
"Why? So if I were Humaveran, what were you gonna do if I told you? Were you gonna turn me in to the government?" I ask.
"Um—" I cut her off.
"You know what? Nevermind, my other question is more important." I cover up.
"Anyways, who are you?" I ask.
"What do you mean?" She asks.
"I mean what I said. Clearly you're someone of great importance since you were able to make my mom "go get something"." I snap back.
"Let me introduce myself, I'm Verlynn Tohaz. I'm 17 years old, and I'm your cousin!" Verlynn says.
