Bursted!
A loud voice in my head yelled.
Slowly, I turned my head slowly towards the sound of the very familiar voice. Walking towards me was worried looking Lisa.
"Isn't that one of the trainees I saw leave?"
I nodded in response.
"What was he doing here?"
"Lance" I replied. She raised her eyebrows questionably. "He sent him to spy on me"
"Why would he do that?"
"Update?. Something about me not getting the job done?"
"Hmmm. Tough shit. You gonna confront him?"
"Like hell I am"I replied. "What are you doing here anyway?"
"Thought I'd find you here. Kayden wanted me to find you, said you ran off"
"Technically, I did. He wanted to tell me something, I think"
Lisa's face brightened up in part excitement. "What about?"
"I don't know. Something tells me it's about Vandi"
"Okayyyyyy. So, what about Vandi?"
"I ran off, remember?" I replied raining an eyebrow at her.
Her mouth formed an "O".
"No pressure. I'll just ask him about it later"
"Yeah, that's if he's willing to tell. He was in the moment. Might never come again"
"I'm Kenzy Anderson. Second chances are my thing"
"Hmmm. Go girl" The sarcasm in her tone made me laugh.
" You doubt me" I pointed out.
"What? No. C'mon, I have maths. Let's get to class"
"Seconded. Miss Birdie would be mad if I missed AP English"
She nodded in agreement.

Kayden's POV
5:30pm.
I was already done with two cups of coffee while waiting for Vandi who'd told me she'd been finishing up in her store for the past two hours. Lately, we've been closer than ever and often seen together which I think is starting to become a problem. Rumor has it that we're a thing. We make a hot couple because, of course the hot guy and sexiest cheerleader always end up together.
But, ew, I did not just call Vandi sexy. You didn't hear that from me.
Vandi's going through a lot and it affects me like in the way it's supposed to. She was equal to the main character in a tragic movie. Her parents were the tragedy itself. The situation were the main character is shared the same house with the evil that came with the house. I feared for her mental health.
First, her sister who she was personally treating.
Then, her parents; Her dad who wants to get rid of her and her mum who her Dad had made a pawn in his hands.
She's going through a tough time with noone else to face it with her. But I'm glad I'm here for her. I only wish I could take all her pain away because she deserves nothing of what is happening to her.
The car door flew open interrupting my thought, revealing a smiling Vandi.
She hopped into the car and pecked me on my cheek as her way of saying "hey".
She was smiling which was a good sign. "Penny for your thoughts"
I feigned a smile. "I'm not thinking. Why are you such in a ecstatic mood?"
"Just because I'm also done paying the money I owe my devil of a father"
" That's progress"
She smiled wildly as she buckled her seat belt. Her happiness just made me so happy. " Yeah. Thanks to you and Dad"
"You're his daughter. He'll do anything for you".
She nodded. " I know. I can't wait to start living with you guys"
" It's a matter of time, Vandi. But before then I'd make sure to do anything to protect you, I promise"
" I know you would. Siblings forever"
"Siblings forever" I assured her. "Alright baby sis, let's go see your sister and find out how she's doing"
I started the engine. " I hope it's good news"
I hope so too.

Lisa's POV
Something was going on. Something really strange. My parents were not home which was more of a norm than a shock. But it was the late hours of the night, God knows where they'd gone off to at this sinful hour.
I don't really care anyway. They could do whatever they liked, it's their life.
Focus Lisa. There's an intruder in your home. Don't let your guard down.
Activating stealth mode, I moved to where I heard the unholy sounds come from.
My room. I drew in a long breath, grabbed my pocket knife from my side skirt pocket and slowly pushed my room door open. Darkness clouded my vision making the whole scene a blur but I'm a spy; blur is my thing.
The dark figure lunged at me. I dodged. Without thinking, I tore his flesh with my knife giving him or her a shoulder wound.
They retaliated with a punch across my face. The knife dropped. I staggered but regained myself in a second.
Oh, definitely a guy cos that punch hurt like hell. Only a guy's fist could be as strong as that. Good thing I could take a punch. I went for him.
I punched. I kicked. He ducked. He stabbed his fist into my stomach, I groaned.
"That's it".
I swung a roundhouse kick to his ribs and knock him down with my fist to his neck.
He fell unconscious.
I sighed and flipped the light on in an attempt to identify the man in the mask.
Flipping the mask off his head revealed someone unfamiliar.
"Who the fuck are you?"

Kenzy's POV
"Hey Kenz. This is for you" Cass said handing me my phone.
"Thanks" I answered the call. "Hey"
"We have a situation".
I sighed. Whatever it was, I could bet on my parents grave that it wasn't good.
