The Return of the Golden Keepers

Part 26: Welcome Back

*Beep *Beep

My eyes feel heavy. I slowly open them and roll towards the bed stand to look at my alarm clock. 5 a.m. I reach my arm out and turn the alarm off.

It's been a long time since I've woken up this early. Not since I was apart of the Golden Keepers last year.

We would rise early every day and train together. That's how we discovered our powers. We all had similar powers, but also different ones. Shane is far more intellectual than Dean and I. Dean is stronger than Shane and I. And me, well I would say I have a good combination of both.

I was able to create things from the palm of my hand just by thinking about it. Not to mention I went completely invisible during one of our fights against the Captian and Sarah last year. I'm still not quite sure how I did it.

I climb out of the bed. My feet touch the cold ground, sending a shiver up my spine. I walk to the closet, grabbing a pair of black yoga pants and a white tank top and put them on.

"Hey" Dean says as he walks out of his bedroom door the same time I do.

"Hello" I say with a slight giggle.

We walk down the hall together towards the kitchen.

"I haven't been up this early since..." I begin to say but stop.

Dean nodds. Knowing exactly what I was thinking.

"Shane is going to flip out when he see's you at the base today." Dean says.

"Yeah, I'm excited to see everything again. It's been a long time." I respond quietly.

Dean grabs the carton of eggs in the fridge and begins to make eggs for us. I decide to put some slices of bread in the toaster for us. A good pre-work out meal.

After eating our breakfast, we open the door and head out towards the beach. Dean quickly puts an arm in front of my body, stopping me from taking another step.

"Dean! What the he.." I begin to yell before he covers my mouth and nudges his head to the right.

I slowly turn my head to the right to see what the big deal was. Sarah was walking on the coast. Not only that, she was walking towards my home! Does she know where I live?

"We better walk through the trees today." Dean whispers.

I nodd in agreement and begin to follow Dean around the back of the house. I'm starting realize how grateful I am for wearing yoga pants this morning. Dean keeps mumbling to himself everytime a stick or thorn scratched his bare calves.

"Do you think Sarah knows we live at that house?" I decide to ask.

Dean stops for a moment and turns to look at me.

"I'm not sure. Cali has been to your place, so maybe she told Sarah. Or maybe she followed you home one day." Dean says as he shrugs his shoulders.

"Ugh, I should have seen this coming. Of course she would figure out where I live." I say to myself.

"Don't be to hard on yourself. You have an awesome roommate now so I don't think she'll be messing around with you anytime soon." He responds while trying to lighten the mood.

I can't help but smile. Dean always tries to make me feel better no matter what the situation is.

We finally reach the rock that opens the underwater tunnel to thrifty island.

"Would you like to do the honors?" Dean says, gesturing to the rock.

"Okay." I sigh.

I press the hidden button and watch as the water parts to reveal the entrance to the Golden Keepers base.
