She's a Goddess

Frostbite

Song of the chapter: Bad Kind of Butterflies by Camila Cabello. 

Iris' P.O.V;

"What are you doing here?" Fabian questions, surprised to find us here. 

"We could ask you the same question," Joy shoots back. 

"Okay, I think maybe it would be a good idea if we sit down and have a discussion about this," Nina states, "I second that" I agree as the others nod, "great let's get out of here then" she leads the way. 

"Who is down here?!" We stop in our tracks when we hear Victor's booming voice. 

"Show yourselves!" He demands as we hear his footsteps walking down the stairs. We all remain silent and try to figure out where he is by his footsteps.

Nina slowly makes her way to the peephole to have a look, she turns around and mouths to us that he is right outside. We all share worried looks, imagining what would happen if Victor found us. 

We stand still, waiting for Nina to give us the signal that the coast is clear. 

Finally, we hear his footsteps walk up the stairs, followed by the cellar door slamming shut and the sound of a lock. We look to Nina for confirmation and she nods, letting us know that Victor is gone. 

We make our way out of the study. 

"Great, he locked the door" I sigh, "how are we going to get out of here?" I question. 

"Keep calm newbie, we have another way out" Patricia states as they take us through the other exit. 

Joy and I share a confused glance when we end up in the kitchen but we don't say anything else. 

"Oh, I forgot to put this back" Nina sighs as she holds up an unusual object, "do you want to go and put it back?" Fabian asks, "no it's okay, we will just hide it" Nina suggests as the group nods. 

"Okay," Joy chimes in, "I will ask the obvious question" she states, "what the hell is that?" Joy questions, "let's just sat we have a lot of explaining to do" Nina answers, "well let's get to it" I instruct. 

"We can go to my room?" Fabian suggest as we nod and follow him into the room. 

"Okay so explain" I demand as I close the door behind me, "if we explain this, you need to tell us what kind of Goddess you are" Patricia demands. "Who says I am a Goddess?" I remark, "no time for lies" Nina retorts, "we tell you the truth, you tell us the truth" she states. 

"And how do we know you are telling the truth?" Joy questions, "just have to trust us" Amber chimes in, "like we have to trust you" she adds. 

Joy and I look over at each other, having a mental conversation before coming to a decision. 

"Fine" I agree to their demands, "tell us what you got" I order. 

"Okay, so it all started when Nina came, they used to be somebody called Sarah who lived here" Fabian starts, "Sarah Frobisher-Smythe?" I interrupt, "yes, wait, how do you know that?" Nina asks, "I am not sure, I just kind of do" I admit. 

They all look to Joy for some clarification. 

"There is a lot of that" Joy says "stuff she knows but she doesn't know how she knows" she adds, "we are working on it" Joy shrugs as the others nod, satisfied with her answer.
