Once I was in control of my body again, I went and talked with the police. "What happened?" I asked. "The house burnt down obviously." He replied. Such a smart mouth cop. I looked around and didn't see dad or Will, and I had a bad suspicion because of that dream. "Where's my dad and brother?" I asked, scared of the response. "If there was anyone in there, they didn't survive. I'm sorry." He replied. I walked back to Rina. "What am I going to do now? I have no home, no family, no money, and no clothes." I asked Rina. "You could always come live with me." She offered. "I can't do that. You never stay there yourself. Maybe temporarily but that's it." I said. I glanced behind me real quick and saw this short Mexican boy, around my age, starring at me. For some reason the reporter was interviewing him. "Hey Rina, do you know that kid?" I asked. "Nope. He looks like he knows you though. He wont stop looking at you." Rina said.
"That's a little weird. Why do you think their questioning him?" I continued asking questions. "Maybe he was there when the fire started." she suggested. "Why would he be here?" I asked. "Quit asking question I don't know the answer to!" She yelled. "Sorry. I guess the only way to know is to ask him." I said. "Yay we get to meet new people! Up up and away!" she yelled and ran at him. "Rina, wait!" I yelled, but i was too late. She jumped right on him and they tumbled over and he hit his head hard on the grass. "OWWW!!!!" He yelled loudly. I ran and pulled Rina off him. "Sorry! I'm so sorry about her." I apologized, and helped him up. "I like you! Your going to be our new best friend!" Rina yelled enthusiastically, grabbing his hands. "Um, Ok. Who are you?" He asked. "Oops my bad! This is Lucy and i'm Rina. What's your name?" she asked. "I'm Leo. All da ladies luv Leo." he said smirking. "Ok, well hi mr. all-da-ladies-luv-Leo. Why were the reporters talking to you?" I asked. "Oh. They wanted to know what I knew about the house burning down." He answered. "So you were here when it burnt down?" I asked. "Yes." he said, suddenly looking nervous. "Why?" I asked. "uh, no particular reason. Just walking by." He said hesitantly. "Ok. What did you see?" I asked more question. "You sure do ask alot of questions. Well I was waiting for you to get home, then-" "Wait, you were waiting for me?" i interrupted. "Then the house just caught on fire. It started inside for sure cause I didn't notice it till the roof and side of the house caught on fire." He continued, ignoring my question. "Did anyone exit once it caught on fire?" I asked. "No. I'm sorry." He said. I guess I already knew that, but I held out hope, till he smashed it anyway. "Ok, well thanks for the help." I frowned and walked away. I went and sat in the grass over at the neighbors house and Rina came and sat next to me. "Do you think it would be ok to head to Piper's house early?" She asked. "What time is it?" I asked. "Umm, Five thirty." She answered. "Yea sure. You know how to get there right?" I said. "What else would you expect of a cute little genius?" She said and smiled. We started walking to Piper's house, which Rina estimated was about a fifteen minute walk. "Do you think she would let us stay there tonight?" Rina asked. "If we explain the circumstances, probably. Would you want to see?" I asked. "It's our best choice. Either that or my house." She said. "Your house kinda creeps me out." I confessed. "Ok then. Piper's house it is." She replied. We kept walking and walking. It seems like it's taking us forever. I kept thinking about my vision. Could it really be real? If it is, then what happened to will? In my vision he just walked away. Maybe he is still alive. But then again, if it is true, Dad is definitely dead. My brain wouldn't take a rest. It kept thinking of different ways this could of happened. Rina suddenly stopped, "We're here!" she said trying to sound happy, though it was practically impossible after what happened. I looked over at her house and my mouth dropped.
