All of the officers helped get the boys on the bus. Max didn’t know where it was going to take them and honestly he didn’t care. He had seen that look in grown men many times when he had questioned killers. Something wasn’t right. He looked over to the people standing by his children. “You didn’t say anything about the boys.”
“I didn’t see any boys.” Mitsuhide said as he looked over the other man. Mitsuhide understood the question for what it really was. Max had to question everything and now he was in the spotlight. “I only saw grown men and women, Max.”
“Then what was he talking about with the chat rooms and being picked?” Max asked out loud. “What was done to them that they could go from innocent to blood thirsty lunatics?”
“Max.&r

He sighed again as he looked at the wall. The room was only seen if the light was on. It was off to the side of the hallway. It had been near where Deanna would have been if she had made it all the way down the stairs. He looked around him and motioned to the officers that were standing there. He pressed on the wall. The door popped open and he was glad he had at least figured out the way to open their secret rooms. That seemed to be the easiest part of dealing with them. The doors were almost all the same.The light was so bright in the room. He looked into it and didn’t see anyone though. He did however see the monitors that lined the walls. He walked in and could see the topside of where he was. He had to think to himself, “Of course they had cameras everywhere.”He shook his head as he could identify different places in the yard an

The three girls were dressed exactly the same as two of them were standing in the middle of the maze. The two that were standing there were in what looked to be white robes that were stained red. One girl was wearing the same but she was laid in front of the two in a planter.The smiles on the two that were standing as they looked at the camera would normally suggest they were happy and celebrating. However the picture around them spoke to more of what it was. Deanna looked at the picture and almost fell to the ground. She couldn’t remember that day but she remembered playing in the maze before she hated it. She thought she had made it all up. The other versions of herself. She had thought they were just things she had made up in her mind. She only had flashes of the maze and them.“Go away.” Deanna said as she stumbled away from them.

Deanna made it to the front of the house. When she felt another kick from the baby. She rested her hands there for a minute and looked down. This baby was supposed to the first in something that was better. Max had shown her more love than anyone else. She knew what he thought. She was like his brother. She had killed her own sister.He wouldn’t believe her when she told him if she ever got the chance too. He had made up his mind already. The pain was washing over her again. It was everywhere. Her family finally got the best of her. She would never be any different than them.The baby would be better off with him. She would ruin it. She felt the burning in her chest again. She found it hard to breathe. She knew everything would be better without her there. It was all because of her. Everything bad her family did was

As soon as they got to the hospital the doctors did a quick exam. They began to rush her up to have a c-section. Max was left not knowing what was going on though he was standing right there. He walked out of the room and saw Kit there. “Where is Mitsuhide?”“Downstairs with the vans.” Kit said. “Max call your parents to come get the kids right now. This is happening right now.”Max pulled out his phone and called his father. They were on their way. He told them that Mitsuhide was with the kids and he need them to go with them for right now. Deanna was having the baby right now. He didn’t want to answer the questions his father had. He wanted to curl up and hide himself.“You didn’t do this.” Kit said.“I did. I pushed her to much.”

Max looked at Deanna and now understood what Kit had been trying to get through to him. She was the one at the center of this entire family but she was not responsible though she might feel that way. Mitsuhide had felt guilty because of his decision to keep June alive when it would have been easier to let her go. He had tried to distance himself at the time and lost completely when everything went to hell for him.Deanna was willing to walk away from her life that she had with him because she thought she was the toxic one. He wanted to hug her and strangle her at the same time. He looked at her holding one of their twin sons. There was nothing but true love there in her eyes. She looked up to him.“They don’t look like me at all.” She said as she smiled. “That’s okay though. We have enough of those that do.”

“Well they aren’t my favorite either.” She said as she looked up to him and he saw the pain in her eyes.“Sweetheart can you forgive me?” he asked. “I know I messed up with this. I shouldn’t have gone at you the way that I did. I had to get the question answered. It is hard to dispute a picture though and you and another version of you standing before a dead version of you while you two are covered in blood was enough to fry my brain a bit. Also if I hadn’t got the answers from you someone else would have tried if I showed them the picture that is.”“What do you mean if you showed them the picture?” Deanna looked at him with surprise as she spoke. Max was a good cop. He would never hide a piece of evidence. So the thought he could have was something she couldn’t believe he would hav

“She died in what?” Deanna asked shocked for a moment. Though it did start to make sense in her mind.“Think about it for a minute. I know this isn’t what we should be focusing on right now but think. David was cruel to you and he did leer at you but then it was just being cruel again. So if he was having sex with the other you and he got her pregnant he laid off you for a little while. That was going to be the next chosen one in a way. You got a break from him but then after she died he had to have you again. That makes sense in the way that your family would think. Either both of them died or….” Max trailed off for a minute. He thought back to the room where the younger boys were. There was one that was different. Max could see him in his mind. He stood out from all the others. He was the only one that had bruises on him. He was the only o

“Your kids?” Mitsuhide asked as he looked at Max with a chuckle.“There is something in their eyes. They all have it. Deanna does too. It is how I knew Henry and Deanna were more than distant cousins. I would say that it has something to do with the way they look but it more and hard to explain. That boy had it too. He is David’s regardless of what anyone else says and the fact he is also Deanna’s sister’s that mean that boy is going to have some issues.”“You think?” Mitsuhide said and Kit looked at the two men.“Genetically that child is so messed up it doesn’t surprise me that he didn’t react. He might not have an idea of what he was supposed to do in the first place.” Kit said as she looked between the two men before her.&
