chapter 8- the gang meeting

In the living room of the dorm

______________________________________________

Kelly runs into the living room in a rush looking for her something while Sean sits in the couch reading a book

"what are you doing?" Sean asks looking up from his book

"I'm looking for my hat as well as my mask" Kelly says looking under the table

"why do you need to go to Midnight's base it's almost dark out" Sean says putting his book down

"the gang leaders meeting is tonight" Kelly says standing up

"wait that's tonight?!" Sean says getting up quickly

"yeah, I forgot to ask if you can watch racheal tonight" Kelly asks looking at Sean

"I cant I have to go with Kasey" Sean says standing up

"then who's gonna watch racheal?" Kelly says

"just take her with you" Sean says heading towards his room

"I cant it's the gang leaders meeting, I have to keep my identity anymounus and keep racheal safe" Kelly says following Sean, "plus she's the daughter of the unity gangs leader, they'll be looking for her sooner or later"

"ok then maybe we can leave her here alone and lock up all the doors" Sean says grabbing his jacket off of the bottom of his bed

"the teachers have started doing dorm inspections so they could come here at anytime, including tonight" Kelly says

Sean grabs a mask out from his pocket of his jacket

"btw here, I lost mine and so I borrowed your since I was in a rush the other night" Sean says handing Kelly her mask

"seriously you could've told me you had it to begin with" Kelly says grabbing her mask and putting it on as she walks out of Sean's room

"I'll take racheal with me and then once we get inside the building well meet up outside of the room where the leaders meeting will be held and you'll take her then since your staying outside of the room and bring her back here since there will be people trying to figure out my identity and challenging me" Kelly says walking out of Sean's room with Sean following behind her

Kelly goes to her room and finds racheal a hat and a scarf to cover her face

Racheal's in the living room looking at the book, Sean was previously reading

Kelly gets racheal ready as Sean walks out the door

"where's papa going?" racheal asks as Kelly zips up her jacket

"don't worry were going to the same place as papa, you'll be going with him once we get there since mommy has something to do" Kelly says wrapping the scarf around racheal's neck and face

"but you'll have to stay hidden since we don't want you getting hurt ok?" Kelly says putting racheal's hood on

racheal shakes her head yes and her and Kelly walk out the door

______________________________________________

Sean's sitting at the kitchen table finishing a school assignment

racheal's walks into the kitchen

"daddy, Is mommy ok? ever since we got back from that weird place she's been in her room this whole time" racheal asks

"I'll go check on her so for now go play with some toys, I think you left some of your toys under papas bed" Sean says getting up out of his chair

"ok" racheal says as she runs of to Seans room to look for her toys

Sean walks into Kelly's room and almost gets hit by book that hit the wall beside the door

"next time just tell me to knock instead of throw a book at me" Sean says picking up the book and walking towards Kelly's who's sitting on her bed surrounded by papers as she looks at Sean

"sorry I'm just really stressed and threw the nearest object without thinking" Kelly says trying to calm down

"your not the only one, Kasey's been stressed to ever since the leaders meeting except the book actually hit me when I walked in" Sean says sitting down at the bottom of Kelly's bed

"what happened at the leaders meeting that's got you guys so stressed" Sean asks picking up a paper and looking through it

"they gave everyone a whole bunch of paperwork and expects us to write a report of what's happened lately in our gangs and i have a whole bunch of schoolwork to do on top of all that" Kelly says

"that's alot of work, I offered to Kasey to do the gang report but since I'm not in your gang I can't do the report for you but I might be able to help with some of the school work since we have the same class" Sean offers putting the paper back onto the bed

"thanks for the offer but I need to this on my own" Kelly says

"ok well racheal's getting worried about you so why don't you take a break and play with her for a while" Sean's says standing up

"I need to get this done first then I'll play with racheal" Kelly says

"ok but make sure you come out and get some food" Sean says walking towards the door

"I will" Kelly says as she picks up a piece of paper and Sean exits the room
