Chapter 2-
As the four friends walked to Frog Hollow, the name given to Pierce and Fox's house, laughing over the faces of the people who witnessed the vines that grew way to fast for any of their likening.
"Who's cooking?" Brooke asked, secretly hoping that Amaria had cooked her much loved recipe for pie.
"Good question, probably what ever's in the cupboards" replied pierce looking up at his older sister who was standing on the roof fixing the hole which pierce had been "meaning" to fix for a week now.
Thankfully for Amaria, she looked nothing like her younger brother (seriously who'd want to look like their younger brother?), she had long blonde hair, with pretty blue eyes, not to mention the blue jeans and a grey t-shirt that has '#23' printed in big, bold red letters.
"Hey guys!" She called "I've got a few dozen chicken pies in the oven, take one or two doesn't really matter!"
As they walked closer to the freakishly small green door Brooke had a felling she was being watched by something that wasn't entirely natural, usually when she had this felling it would just be animals, plants and murs rouges, creatures that is neither an animal not a human being. The presence was powerful sort of presence.
She shrugged off the felling and kept on walking.

A few minutes later as they were all finishing up their pies Amaria threw the door open and turned the lights off, "get in the cellar!" She said looking determined.
They didn't move "now!" She yelled pointing the statue of a mother and a child next to the fire place.
Fox ran to the window, her face dropped, "their here" she said moving quickly to the fire wood. Pierce jumped up to help her move the logs.
"Are you guys just gonna sit there, help!" He said glaring at the other two. Brooke jumped up and grabbed Flints hand.
Together they moved the logs to reveal a trap door. Just as Amaria finished barricading the door they heard footsteps and mumbling of four men.
One by one they each jumped down the trap door into a small dark room full of food and some metallic things that Flint couldn't quite make out in the dark.
Last to jump in was Amaria. Brooke summoned the logs to move over the trap door, "why didn't you do that earlier?!" Flint yelled quietly, if that's even possible.
"Because you needed the exercise!"
"What are you trying to say Brooke?"
"Really not a good time guys!" Amaria said trying to light a match.
A moment later they heard the door being beaten to death by what must have been a sledge hammer.
Or something along the lines of it.
"Just stay real quite ok? Fox said, "looking at you two" she said glaring at Brooke and Flint.
Bang.
The cellar fell silent.
Another bang.
"What are they here for?" Brooke says crouched down looking up at the trap door we just jumped through.
"Third time this week" Amaria mumbled looking stressed.
"But why?"
Another bang.
"We can't keep hiding like this, their going to catch us eventually" Amaria mumbled to no one in particular.
"What are you talking about?" Brooke asked
Another bang.
"Get my bow" Amaria said
"What?"
"Get my bow!"
Brooke hadn't realised that it had become dead silent above and quickly snatched the bow and sheath of arrows from on top of one of the boxes and throw then to her.
Amaria quickly slid the sheath over her head and loaded her bow.
They could all hear the grunts of the men pushing the statue away from the trap door.
Fox took her knife, Flint took a potato seeing there really wasn't much else that would hurt if you threw it and someone's face.
"Take aim..." Amaria whispers to herself.
The trap door slowly opens.
"FIRE" Amaria lets three arrows fly.
"SHIT, AMARIA ITS ME!"
"Johnny? You son of a bitch, why didn't you just knock?"
"I'm a thief, natural instinct. Now if you don't mind moving that arrow out of my face..." Amaria lowered her bow slowly.
"What about the other guys?" She asks not unloading her bow.
"Knocked them out..."
"So I have a bunch of dead guys on my lawn?"
"Nop, you just got a bunch of knocked out guys on your lawn."
"Well, get them away from here, away away!"
"But I just got here!"
"Well looks like your just leaving"
"Come on, he can stay for a little while can't he?" Fox asked.
"I'll be back in a flash kid",he said pulling fox out of the cellar, and with that he disappeared.
Johnny had an extremely rare power, one that no one had had for exactly 344 and 2 days. He couldn't only turn what ever he touched invisible (including himself) he also had telekinesis which was so rare to have that people all over the world are scared of him, just by hearing about him. That's why he's on the run.
He had olive skin and dark curly, he had a defined jaw line and a turned up noes. He was really handsome for a pick pocket, but hey, don't judge a thief by his cover.
Hey guys! I'm just gonna read through and add bits and pieces, I'll add more sometimes this week.
