“Maybe the less people there the faster time gets?” Spark suggests.

“Plausible but not quite accurate, My dear brother. We were all in there for a good amount of time. But all that time was the same in there as it was out here.” Konan looks at my watch. “Ummm... Cullin you should look at this.”

I look at the watch and It’s 7 YEARS ahead of time. I fall onto the ground shocked, still looking at the watch. Sly turns towards me to see what’s going on.

“What’s wrong?” He asks

“I’m 26 years old.”

“So?”

“I was 19 when we met.”

Everyone goes silent. Spark breaks the silence. “Wow you're old.”

“Seriously Spark? That’s your comforting words. How old are you then? In dog years?”

“I’m 8 and big bro is 21.”

“I’m also 19” Sly adds in.

Lily sits in silence.

Me and Sly sit there knowing we can’t ask Lily her age.

“How old are you Lily?”

We look at Spark out of shock.

“I’m 23. and for future reference Spark, NEVER ask a Lady her age.” Lily goes into a depression. I crawl to her and try to comfort her.

“I’m the oldest one here you know. You don’t have to feel bad.”

“Technically speaking she still is. You sir, might of aged a few years but those years are non-existent. She on the other hand-” I glare at Konan and mouth the words “SHUT UP”

Konan shakes his head and walks to the edge of the cave and starts talking to Sly.

“They’ve gotten real close really quick.”

“That’s strange for my brother. He trusts NO ONE” Spark says as he crawls into my Backpack. The rest of us walk to the entrance of the cave and I now notice that this cave is just a hole in the side of a Canyon.

“Where exactly are we?” I asked.

“We are in the Grand Canyon. Since that Ricardo guy can track us down and everywhere else I thought of were easily findable I transported us here. Great hiding place huh?”

I casually nod my head out of satisfaction. We all then sit down on the edge of the cave.

“I need you to kill a woman name Ghislaine. She’s in Vega’s. Find her soon or everyone will suffer the consequence.” The little girls voice leaves my head as abruptly as it came.

“Guys we need to go to Vega’s.”
