“Now I want you to really think about every answer you give me. The second it feels like I’m being lied to, I will walk out of this hospital without a backward glance, are we clear?” She nodded again. “I need you to use your words Tami, no matter how much it hurts, even if you feel like dying, don’t worry, I’m here to make sure that doesn’t happen. So… I’ll try to be quick. Uhh…when was the first time you tried to hurt me, like really hurt me?” They was that bob in her throat but she said nothing. I lifted a brow, waiting. When she remained silent I pushed my seat back and rose gingerly. “Wait…please!” She rasped, “I’ll t-alk.” I sat back down. “The first time…it was on set, the…pool.” “What happened at the pool, Tami?” Her eyes darted to me pleading. I gave no sign of sympathy. “the lights went off…I changed the signs in the cave to misdirect you…trapped you… I’m sorry.” “You did that yourself? Or you had help?” “…stunt director… he helped.” I nodded thoughtfully.

When we reached the private hospital, we were directed straight to where Leo was pacing outside a room I assumed Tami was in. I felt a pang in my chest as I looked at the man who had fathered me. The grim set of his jaws, his shoulders hunched as he circled the hall. He looked like he had aged several years since the Dionet party. Pierce pressed his hand to my back drawing my attention to his face. He was staring at Leo, contempt on his face. Leo’s first words to me after ‘hello, it’s your father.’ Was ‘what is your blood type?’ I could hear his relief through the phone when I said the dreaded AB-. Then he asked that I come to the hospital to help save Tami.Pierce had decided then that he had heard enough. For Leo to call for me to save Tami when only few minutes ago, she had tried to kill me. It seemed even funnier seeing as Pierce had suggested ending her life a seconds before his call came in. When I agreed to come to the hospital, my response seemed to stun not only Pierce.

First the emergency personnels passed with a woman on the gurney, in a dress I had first mistaken as deep red, before I realized-in horror- that it was just a blue dress soaked in so much blood. A guest had gotten hurt really badly, she looked lifeless from the paleness of her skin. But something else stood out, there was a black thing protruding from her belly. Was that a…Another chill worked it’s way up my spine when her unconscious face came to view.“Holy shit!” Hannah cursed. The next part of the parade was the officers, and the source of all the screaming. Sarah was bound by cuffs, doing her best to lengthen the time it took to get her from her to the doors. She had a cut on her eye and dark soot covering most of her arms, her dress was ripped in multiple areas. Her eyes turned murderous when she saw me. “You! Why won’t you just die!!!” She screamed. “I should’ve put a bullet through your brains a long time ago! I’m gonna kill you!!!! Let me go! Let me go you bastards!.” She

Once the surprise of seeing me with Pierce wore off, we were joined on the dance floor by several other couples. He drew me closer to him and buried his head in my neck, no concern for what others in the room would think. “You smell wonderful.” He whispered and kissed my cheek fondly, and then kissed it again when I did not respond. I smiled at him my heart pounding in my chest. “Give me a minute, I’m just trying to wrap my head around the fact that this is really happening.” His arms tightened around me even more, which meant we were barely moving at this point. Just in the middle of the room, hugging. I leaned my head on his chest, and sighed with pleasure. “How was Heidi’s treak or treating?” He asked his chest rumbling as he spoke. “She had a lot of fun, and to much candy. We took a lot of photos, I’ll show you later.” I answered. “Can’t wait.” “Are your parents here?” ”Yes.” His head turned to a particular direction in the room and my eyes followed it to find

“This is a whole new side of you Carter.“I admitted as he stepped closer. He shook his head and turned till he was facing the party too and people-watching with me. A couple passed us and my back straightened, a quick smile offered immediately. Look normal, a voice said in my head. “Nothing’s changed with me.” He started when they were out of earshot. He sounded awfully like the voice at the back of my mind. “You just happen to have caught me with Sophia, and built this wall in your head about how evil I am.” “I don’t know about you, but I consider cheating on your partner pretty evil.” He let out a sigh. “She means nothing to me, goddess. We can still work this out.” “I doubt that.” “Don’t do this,” he pleaded. “Do what?” “Pierce’s mystery woman tonight, it’s you isn’t it?” He chuckled under his mask, "I knew something like this was going to happen when you went to ‘help’ him.”Anger flashed in my eyes at his implication that I was cheating on him. “Which is why you spent the

Tami and Sarah’s POVThey slipped through the party unnoticed, Tami, not quite caring, her focus on Myra.Sarah, seething at her invisibility, the same thoughts racing through their head. They would show them, they would show ALL of them. The guards situation at the exists barely gave them a second glance as they slipped out of the party. Taking the small hallway to the opposite hallroom. Away from all the noise and people. “I want to set them on fire, Tami said to herself. “I want to hear her scream and watch her face melt. That stupid ugly face.” She yelled, her nails digging into her head to slow the anger burning in her head. “They can escape a fire.” Sarah said smartly, peeking to make sure they were not followed, before she pulled a big painting back to reveal a hidden passage. Getting the plans to the building had not been easy, she had come here a few days ago to scope things out, make sure everything was fine, and their plan would go well. Tami had not been of help. The
