     "Nat, I need you to walk the rest of the path and don't turn back, Jack I need you to stay with me." Karen shouts. I look over to her. Her hands are tying my sleeves together and slinging the shirt around her arm. Her arm was dark purple Karen looks up at me when I was watching her. I dart my eyes away.

     "I am not leaving Jack with you!" I see Nat walking to Karen. "You wanted to kidnap him!" He finished off with. "Innocent until proven guilty." Karen snapped back.

     "When you guys stop bickering I want to talk!" I yell. I see them stop and look over to me. "Karen, I have no reason to trust you. Yes, there has been crazy things happening but, just because you know about them does not mean that I need to trust you."

     "Fine, don't trust me! I don't care! You can go to your officers and plead for help, that doesn't bother me. I just want to get proper medical treatment." She crams her neck my way. "I need y..." BANG!

   I wip around. The police are here. They shot at us!

      "Drop your weapons, we are the Pennsylvania Police Department, put your weapons down! Will have permission to shoot if we see any sudden movements. Put your hands up and turn around!" A thunderous boom came form the speaker.

     Karen flashes Nat a look of pure hate."We surrender! We are students of Wellock High school, we are walking home from school. Is that illegal?" Karen shouts back.

     "We will shoot! Do not move your hands. We all want you to take three short steps twords the patrol units."

      Karen looks over at me. Her sloppy hair hits her face at the sudden movement. Her arm was in her makeshift sling. Her blood was already leaking through. I make... Bang! The shot echoes through the canon.

        I hear Nat scream and Karen grunt. I flash a glance to Nat. He has his hands protectively over his head and he is near squatting. At the corner of my eye I see something shine. I look over to the shiny object. Frozen in midair the buttlet is suspended in the air. I muffle a gasp. Karen walks forward with her hand out stretched and her face pinched. She moans and takes a step forward. The bullet wavers in the air for a second then points to the ground. The bullet releases all of its built up force and goes straight to the ground. Debris and dirt fill the air after the compact. I hear yelling and shouting coming from the police. I hear more shots fired. I reach out my hand and try to stop the bullets. I force them to stop. A wave of extreme exuation washes over me. I grunt and look over to Karen. She has her arm out stretched to Nat. Nat has this large wall of water in front of him. Water stops bullets! Of course! I allow the bullets to drop with a soft clang and sprint over to Nat. I see him look at me with terror in his eyes. Eyes... my eyes are almost closed, I'm so tired. The stoping of bullets is to much I almost forget I'm shirtless or that Karen is doing more then me.

     The police are silent. I look past the water wall that had to be at least ten feet thick to see two men with guns and three woman with guns. The woman closest to us has her jaw dropped. The men were behind her with wide eyes. The other two woman dropped their guns instantaneously.

     From my side view I saw Karen. Her face was beaded with sweat. Dirt was smeared across her face. She was pale and clammy. Her eyes were full of fire. The world she saw was burning down. She looked so... so... powerful. She was gorgeous. My instinct was to run over and help  but I new if I did I would be shot. By her and the police.

     "You did not see this." Karen yelled strongly. "You did not come here, you got a false alarm, you never saw us. You never saw what happened. You will forget everything that happened in the last fifteen minutes. Pick up your weapons and leave!"

     The police officers dropped suddenly and the wall of water disappeared. Nat was sitting on the floor with his knees pulled up to his chest. "Nat are you okay?"

     "What the Heavens happened...you...Karen...water..."

     "I have no clue." I bend down to face him. "Nat, I never knew about this. I am just surprised about this as you are. Can you get up please. I think we should help Karen."

     Nat nods his head and sticks his hand in my face. Waiting for me to pull him up. I grab his wrist and give him momentum. He stands and gives me a hug. I slowly wrap my arms around him. I can feel his tears running down my bare chest.

     "I was so s-scared! You were going to go with Karen then the police shot at us the you froze the bullets then..then..."

        "I am scared to Nat, but we must..."

        "Sorry to interrupt your moment, but we need to go." Karen places a good hand on her hip and rolls her eyes. "Jack I sill need you to come with me. You saw what we did. Nat... you can come to if...if...you never...tell anyone about today. If you do I will mind wipe you, and mind wipe Jack of your existing."

       "Karen, why would we..." I hear a sigh and then hard force meets  my temple. I hear screaming coming all around. The scream sounds feminine. Probably Nat then. My vision starts to tunnel, I feel myself sway then the world goes compleatly black.
