“Hello again Nathan,”Dad said smiling at me,”It’s been a while.”

“What are you doing here,”I said taking my bag off.

“To finish some old business,”He said as Nick took Max by her hair,”And to make sure this boy does what his brother couldn’t.”

“Really for by the looks of it I would say that you are here to talk,”I said as a little figure of a rabbit bounced out,”Hey a bunny.”

“Where?”Nick said as the shadow jumped to him,”Bunny.”

“Boy leave the animal alone and take the stupid girl,”Dad said facing Nick as I smiled,”We don’t know anything about when she will wake up.”

I jumped on his back as the little harmless bunny went evil on Nick. Dad tried to get me off as Josh woke up and saw what was happening. I jumped off and landed by Josh and Max. She was still out cold and we had two very upset very powerful beings in front of us.

~Max~

I stayed on the ground as I heard Josh and Nathan stand over me. I let my eyes run around with my thoughts as I had a stupid idea now. As I heard them get closer I made the three bags get closer to us. I felt them latch to each other and to the one on my back. I grabbed Nathan’s and Josh’s ankle as I knew Nathan hates it when I do this.

“You’re not,”Nathan said as I shadow traveled to the nearest edge of the pit,”And you did.”

“You’re welcome,”I said standing up.

“Why are we here of all places,”Nathan said as his dad walked over to us,”We are literally five feet from where we were five seconds ago.”

“Trust me,”I whispered stepping forward.

“That’s my stupid line,”Nathan said looking down.

“Come and get us then,”I smirked as Nick and Nathan’s dad ran at me.

I ducked down as the other two did as well. I heard yelling as I went to the edge of the pit. Powers don’t work in the area around the pit. Learned that the hard way. I watched them struggle to hang on to the branch as some weird looking arm came out to grab them.

“Help us,”Nick yelled at me.

“Why,”I said as they looked at me.

“Please,”Nick said again,”You are suppose to be the good guys. You help people.”

“True but that’s only the good people,”I said sitting down on the edge,”You are not the good people.”

“I can change,”Nick cried to me,”Linus changed so can I.”

“I saw the good in him when people couldn’t see that. You are a little worst than he was.”

“I promise I can be good.”

“Shut up boy,”Nathan’s dad said as I laughed,”We both know she is not going to let us hang here forever.”

I stood up and we went on our little way. I heard screams for help as Nathan and Josh laughed at me. I am the good guy but not when you knock me out and try to kill me without a fair fight first. I looked up at the sky as I thought about everything I could about this KK person now. Nothing much came up and I knew I had to think of another way to do this before dad figures out how to get here and I’m grounded for the rest of my sad life.

“You alright,”Nathan said as I looked at him.

“Why you asking,”I said as he smiled.

“I missed that voice,”He said with a blush coming to his face,”I missed you a lot actually.”

“Nath why did you think that would had helped me?”I asked wanting to know.

“For when they figure out how to reopen the island so it can go two ways everything good would be destroyed unless it is already saved,”He said,”Dad gave me three things that I wanted to save. He knew that I was good but my mom had me on her save list. So I choose you and that was all I needed. Now though I also said Linus and KK. We would need them in the world if they figure out how to do that.”

“You should have said that instead of trying to make me go there the way you did,”I smiled at him,”Then I would have understand that more.” 

 ~John~

I looked into the mirror to see the kids on two different parts of the island. I looked at Jason as he gave me a sly smile. That kid is the reason she went to this stupid island to find the boy that hurt her the most. Why would he do that? I went back to the mirror as I watched the two struggle there.

I looked into the pit as blue-grey eyes looked up from it at the two hanging there. Wait that can’t be...It has to be her. KK was there in the pit. I thought she would have been sent to some other place like...I can’t think of one right now.

“She outsmart them,”Jason said leaning on the doorway.

“Don’t you have school work to go do,”I said now trying to get rid of him.

“Done with that three hours ago,”He said coming by me,”Right now I wanted to know the passwords to go see how the ice is doing.”

“Why?”I asked as he looked at me now.

“I’ll show,”he said as we took off.

I lead him down to the basement and went down to the ice. I whispered the passwords to both doors as he looked at me. I already have Max knowing them I don’t need Jason knowing. He went in first as I saw that it was slowly melting now. I use to be the size of the room now it was only half that size. Why was this happening.

“Both Max and Nathan did it,”Jason said explaining,”So when she broke it with what she held it started the progress of melting. If they don’t get here in time we are going to have to put them somewhere where they can’t get damaged. I wanted to tell them that but I knew if I did Max would never have left to get him.”

“So we need it almost freezing in here to save them all,”I said as he nodded,”That’s just great.”

I went over to the computer since I was lucky and everything here could be freezed without damage to it. I locked it down and set the temp down to as cold as I could get it. I turned to Jason as we left and the cameras came on to help keep track of them.

“Will they be able to do it,”he asked as I looked at him.

“It’s Max, Nathan, and Linus,”I said looking at the window,”With a plus one. I think they can do it.”

~KK~

I watched Max move to the left of the pit as they were in Were territory now. The wolves were good people but had tempers like a dog. Hey that’s funny. I went to check on Linus to see that he was still in an argument against his father. Demons can argue and argue all day long.

“KK came in here,”I heard Mrs. Tate call for me.

“Ok,”I called back going from the pit.

I ran into the beach house thing we stayed in. It was me and her here. There was also about ten other people like us here but we stayed to ourselves. I opened the door to see that she was fixing something for Linus again. I smiled as I loved helping people out. It made me feel like I was helping the world out like my Dad and sister.

“So how are they doing with the time crunch?”She asked as I smiled.

“Good for it is half sized plus Jason just got the room beyond freezing cold,”I said getting the basket ready,”Max and Nathan are bonding again and soon all three or four will be here for us to send back home.”

“Maybe five,”She said as I gave a confused look,”With Max and you both doing the same thing you could go back home with them.”

“I thought the others said that was impossible for me to go back home,”I said as she filled the basket up.

“It’s not,”She said pushing me out the door.

I walked up to the edge as I saw Linus was laying there done with their yell off. I giggled and forgot it echoed. I covered my mouth as he shot up and looked at me. It’s a good thing that the pit, as they called it, made it where you can only see eyes and hands.

“KK?”He asked as I gave him the basket.

“Yeah,”I said as he smiled.

“Why are you helping?”He asked looking up.

“For you and Max need to go back together,”I said placing my arms on the edge,”Or the others could have been like that forever.”

“That’s not a very good why you know,”He said smiling at me,”What’s the real Why?”

“Maybe I should let Max tell you when she remembers,”I said looking out toward the island,”She could explain it better to you than I can.”

“Why are you helping me?”He asked touching my hand,”That’s all you have to say.”

“For you are her best friend. Without you she would be lost in this fight with herself. I’m helping you for she needs you in her life.”

“Friend zoned.”

“But I know that someone else likes you though.”

“Yeah right.”

“I really mean it.”

“I guess you could be right,”he said laying down again,”But who would?”

“Me,”I whispered going back into my little life,”I had always cared for you.”

I went to the center of the island as the windows showed my how they were doing. I looked at one as it was in the pocket of something. How did it get there? I watched it as a voice came out.

“Hey let’s stop here for a while,”Max said,”I need to do something.”

“Ok but you can’t be long,”Nathan said as the piece seemed to move like someone was running.

I watched it closely as it was removed from the pocket and turned to face Max. She looked like Elizabeth King Walker. Max looked into it as if trying to figure something out.

“What is it Max?”I asked as she laughed.

“Who are you?”She asked as she looked around,”Better question is how did mom slip this into my...Wait when she was holding me.”

“Don’t want to know why,”I said as she looked at me again,”I’m not going to give anymore information than you already have.”

“Come on please,”She said doing her puppy dog face NO ONE can say no to.

“NO,”I said knowing it won’t work on me,”It only a you thing.”

“Can you at least tell me how you been helping me out a little,”She said looking around,”Or at least where I am at right now.”

“You are in the Were land.”

“Werewolves. Fun.”

“You will be going around the edge and you can find Linus sitting at the edge of the pit.”

“How do you know that?”

“I know a lot of things Maxy,”I said walking away from it,”You just don’t why yet.”

I went to the center of the island where training was for us. I sat in the middle and looked at the starry night. I wished Max could be here to enjoy this with me. I looked as Mason walked up. He was like my big brother. His dad sent him here on accident like how Max did to me. When
