<P class=MsoNormal>Lorin and I planned a sleepover tonight. I can't wait! I and Lorin are such great friends that no matter what we do, it will always be fun! So Lorin is heading over and as I'm waiting, Castor comes to me and he looks like he has to say something. "What's up Cas?" , I ask him. "Oh, nothing...", he suspiciously answered. "Cas, there is something up, what is it?", I viciously asked him. I am demanding for a very lucid answer from him. 'Cause I don't want him planning something to ruin my sleepover with Lorin. "Nothing! I'm not doing anything! Why do you always think I'm doing something? I am good sometimes!, no I'm good most of the times. Nah I'm good all the time!", he barked back at me. Yeah, he is defiantly up to something. Castor is having another 'episode' of his. Where he acts innocent at first then a demon later on. I know Castor way to well. "Castor, I didn't accuse you of doing anything I'm just wondering what you are up to!", I tried to calmly answer him back. But that didn't work. "Okay Viv, I am up to something, I am up to nothing!", he raged. I swear, if I find my brother doing something that's not appropriate, I just might kill him!</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Lorin and I are just sitting on the floor, eating some yummy buttery warm popcorn, and we are watching some random shows that come up. It's really early in the morning; I'd say about two thirty, that's when all the crappy shows come on. So we mute the TV and just talk for a little. Suddenly, I hear footsteps coming by my door. I figured it was my dad coming upstairs 'cause he was tweaking up his portal. I hear three knocks on my door, and a face through the crack of my door. "Vivien?" I heard in a very innocent whisper. "Come in?" I reply. It's just Castor. "What do you want Cas?" I whisper, so I don't wake my parents. "Viv, I want to go and look at dad's portal!" he loudly whispers. "No, Cas. You can't! Dad isn't around! And he will be so mad. He literally takes inventory of everything there and where he last kept it just so he knows that no one touches things. " I argued back by whispering, I realize arguing while whispering doesn't really make me sound so bossy. "But Viv! I am not going to touch it! I am only going to look at it! I promise Vivien!" he said in a whiney whisper. I gave him the 'I think you should stop where you are and leave' look, but that didn't work. "Cas.." I hesitated. "Please!" he said in a very sad and whiney whisper tone. "Fine. But you better keep your dirty little rodent hands off of dad's equipment or else."I tried to sound scary but whispering can't portray my anger very well.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>My dad's lab room is extremely messy. It's small, and crowded. There are all bunches of different kinds of tools lying around everywhere. It's sort of like a death trap. Watch where you step 'cause you can either step on something important or slip on a wire. So, I just finished listening to Castor complain and I am now stuck taking him into the lab. "Hey Castor, this doesn't seem like a good idea." Lorin says. Castor just ignores her 'cause all is on his mind is the portal. We are taking our steps towards the door to the lab. It's completely silent. The only sounds you can hear are the little creaks of the floorboards and the little graceful pitter patter of our feet touching the floor. We reach the door to the lab. We carefully grabbed the knob and slowly turned it. When we opened the door, a gust of the scent of dust filled the doorway. There is an uncanny glow down the stairs. We each take one silent step down. One more step. A few more steps. We are slowly going down to avoid sound. My dad really will wake up to a tiny little sound coming from anywhere in the house. It's amazing how he could actually do that. I was the first to reach the bottom. Then comes Castor right behind me. "Guys, I don't think this is safe! I am not liking this!" Lorin silently whispers to us as she stays towards the top of the staircase. Castor makes his way in front of me and he steps foot on the floor in the lab. "Guys?!"Lorin silently whispers again.</P>
