Victor's POV

     I am so confused.  I know what I saw.  I think I know, but the boys in front of me are completely normal.  There is no chunk of flesh missing from North, no one is bitten bleeding or anything.  I know I saw that happen outside.  Maybe my mind was playing tricks on me.  I look back at Sang again.  Nope, no blood, no gaping hole where the post was impaled upon her chest.  Maybe I imagined the whole thing.  I hear someone abruptly clear their throat.  Uh oh I completely forgot everyone was just standing there outside I was blocking the door just gaping at them.

    As I step to the side they start to file in brushing by me to stop quickly by Sang on the way to introduce themselves I assume.  I catch Dr. Green lifting her hand to his mouth and kissing the back of her hand.  "Its a pleasure my dear. I hope to get to know you better"  Damn he's smooth.  Mr. Blackbourne was the last through the door and to my surprise does the same.  He lifts her hand to his face but after looking her in the eyes just winks after saying "Charmed, I will be getting to know you better very soon," and walks into the living room like nothing happened.  Something strange just happened and I'm not sure what it was.  There's a nagging feeling in my gut, like I'm seeing something my mind can't process or comprehend.  Oh how I wish I had Mr B ability to figure stuff out or Kota's to see truth.  Because something is very wrong here.  I just wish I could pinpoint it.  Wait, didn't Jess say earlier that Sang had to leave.  When did she get back.  There's no way she could get back and watch that much of the movie in that amount of time.  What is going on around here? This is beyond Luke and Gabe's mind if it's a joke.  

Kota's POV

     I'm baffled by what my eyes are telling me as true, yet my instinct is screaming something is wrong.  Sang and the rest were telling the truth but there was some false entwined within it, I just couldn't determine what was truth and what wasn't.  That in itself was really bothering me. 

     Wait, Jess isn't in the room anymore, where did she go?  I start to head toward the kitchen when she almost knocks me over as she rushes into the room visibly excited.  "She said yes Sang, we are going to have so much fun."  She starts jumping up and down again.  And to think I was missing out on all this before Sang showed up.  Sang is strangely quieter than I expect her to be considering the gymnastics my sister is doing around her hysterically.  Hmmm.  I can't place it.

     "What did Mom say yes to Jessie?" I ask innocently.  She still has the huge smile on her face as she practically screams, "I get to have a slumber party with Sang.  I just have to let Mom know if we want to stay here or go over to Sang's house." 

     I wasn't thinking when I instantly said, "Here, you should stay here."  But to my surprise Sang and Jess were looking at each other and simultaneously say, "Sang's house."  Which started the giggling. 

     Sean has a weird look on his face like he's trying to keep himself from saying something.  He looks over at Sang and winks which causes her to giggle harder.  Wait why did he just groan, or was that a moan.  I feel like I have walked into an episode of the twilight zone that Mom used to make me watch when I was younger.  Something was seriously off with our group. 

      Erik looks over at Gabe and Luke and casually asks, "since the girls are having a slumber party do you guys want to come over and help me keep them out of trouble.  Our parents are out of town so its just us will feel safer if I have reinforcements."

     "Hey it's my sister too you know maybe I should be there too."  I interjected.  I am not going to let those two goof balls ruin my chances with her. 

     "Gentlemen, if I may suggest, why don't we all stay over there the boys downstairs, the girls in Sang's room.  Is this a satisfactory solution?"  Mr. Blackbourne is always there for the best solution.  This way I can keep an eye on Jess and the rest of the boys away from Sang. 

     "I'm just gonna make sure Mom is okay with this to be safe Jess, wait for her confirmation before you get ready to go."  I walk to the kitchen torn with what I hope her answer is.  "Mom, was it ok for me and Jess to go stay at Erik and Sang's house.  Their parents aren't home so it would be just us?"  I forgot my mother's hearing though because she replied back, "Mr Blackbourne and Dr Green will be there as well if what I heard was correct.  You will be safer and more monitored than anywhere I can think with those two there.  Yes you two can just behave."

     Well damn that was not what I thought was going to happen.  This whole day has been odd.  Maybe I will wake up later and it will all have been a dream.  I shake my head and head back to the living room.  Sang and Jess were absent from the room. I shook my head at their enthusiasm and asked everyone if they needed any clothes from our stash in my room.  They all shook their heads no.  Huh, why not? 

     I fealt like I was trying to put a puzzle together but was missing 7 pieces.  Nothing was fitting to make sense.  I look over at Victor and he has the same confused expression on his face.  Well at least I wasn't alone in my altered state of reality.

I'm sorry if it's not up to par.  I know what I'm wanting to write just having problems getting it from my mind to this update.  I will probably go back and change some things when i edit like I did previous update.
