3 Chapter One; Part Three: Interrogation

I look past Liam who just shrugs and up to the roof of the house, where Terrance stands, a bow and hand.

I walk past the pickle farm and towards the alley way, where the apparent groans of a man grow louder.

My hair turns a brighter a red as I get closer to the guy. "What the hell do you want", the guy says cowering behind the dumpster. "That's what I should be asking you", I say, my hair now turning a whiter shade. He looks at me in fascination as he grabs something out of his pocket.

"It wasn't my fault", I say sympathetically. "You nearly killed the guy", Polly says helping Terrance put the guy on a chair.

"I wasn't my fault, I thought he was taking out a gun", I say defending myself. "How could you mistake a book for a gun", Terrance says tying the guy up.

"I don't know", I say. "He has second degree burns", Polly says wincing at the splotches of red burbs on the guy's face and arms. (I do not recommend that you see images of second degree burns, they are so gruesome)

"Denise get me a bag of ice", Terrance says. "Actually ice worsens the burn", Liam says, reading a book on the kitchen counter.

"AcTuALlY iCe WoRsEnS tHe BuRn" Terrance says mimicking Liam. You might think Terrance was being childish, but in reality he wasn't much older than us. Terrance was 24, so he basically could adopt us.

Four hours had past since the whole burns incident, and I'm currently looking into the fridge for and food. Suddenly there's a sound behind me.

"Who's this", asks Mason grabbing a coke out of the fridge. "Some random guy who was stalking us in the ally way", I say sitting down on the stool.

"Where did you go", I ask Mason. "What's it to ya", Mason says sitting across from me.

"Why are you like that", I ask getting pissed off. "Like what", he asks never looking at me in the eyes. "Rude and obnoxious, but only towards me", I say. "Simple", he says, "I just don't like you", he says flashing me a smiling, finally looking at me.

"Well you should start liking me, we are a team after all", I say getting up to throw away my twinky wrapper.

I throw the wrapper away and turn around to find Mason. "We aren't a team, we're just hopeless people looking for comfort", he says walking away.

"You know what, fuck you Mason", I say sticking out the middle finger at him. He turns around and smiles holding out his middle finger as well, "Fuck you too, Denise". And with that he leaves again.

"Where am I", the strange man says wiggling around on the chair. "TERRANCE HE'S AWAKE", I shout.

Terrance rushes down the stairs, towards the guy. "Who are you, why are you here, who sent you", Terrance asks the guy.

"I'm Cooper, I was paid to get more information on the "Unnaturals", he says, making me shiver at the name.

"Who paid you to get information", Terrance asks. "I'm sorry, but I can't tell you that", Cooper says.

Terrance unties the guy and leads him to the living room where he sits down. "And what have you found out so far", Terrance asks.

"Wouldn't you like to know", Cooper says. "Yes I would like to know, and if you don't tell me what you know, I'll have Denise here, burn you more than you already are", Terrance says with the widest of smiles.
