Chapter 68 : New type of normal.

Leonardo had been the fastest to recover. By recover, it meant being able to stand up and walk but his vision was extremely blurry. He glanced back at the others and saw they were still on the floor.

" What attacked us anyway "? He looked between the two doors, suddenly confused " Which one belongs to the twins again "? He looked between the two again then began knocking at the door, " I think it's this one ".

When there wasn't a quick answer, he knocked even louder " Are they still asleep "? A sudden headache overcame him and he grunted at the sudden pain. When someone did open the door, he was surprised to see Kofi.

He glanced at the other door with a confused frown, " Isn't that your apartment "? She raised her eyebrows in slight confusion then suddenly smiled slightly, " Yeah, I just came by to get something from Mordecai. What happened? You look like you got beat up ".

He shrugged, looking back into the hallway " You could say that ". She suddenly rubbed her palms softly, " You probably need some sleep. Go to your apartment ". He nodded, " Probably a good idea ".

He suddenly frowned and shook his head, " I can't just leave the others like that....I'll pull them in ". He turned to leave and she panicked, holding his hand " No! Don't do that " [ Peach would kill me ]

" I'll help you take them upstairs ". He looked at her for a few seconds then shrugged " Alright ". He staggered back towards the elevator and Kofi took a breath of relief. Peach suddenly appeared, peeking at Leonardo's back view, " Are we in trouble "?

Kofi shook her head [ Not yet ] " Not as long as we help him get the others to their apartment ". Chase suddenly whispered harshly behind them, " How is that not trouble "?

They both flinched, covering each other's mouths and stopping the scream already at their throats. Dylan suddenly appeared, looking outside " Shouldn't we get going? The sooner we do, the sooner we can run away ".

They all nodded in agreement and followed after her. Leonardo looked up and stopped dragging them into the elevator, " Who are these Kofi "? She smiled slightly, " Friends of mine, they want to help....if that's okay ".

He shrugged, pulling Rider into the elevator " Not at all ". The elevator ride was not an easy one for any them, especially when they saw Lloyd in there too. Dylan simply stared at his feet [ How did she knock out five of the country's most dangerous people? Doesn't that make her even more dangerous? Wait....should I even be sleeping in the same place as she does? ]

Chase shook his head lightly, [ These people will be our teachers soon? Are we gonna get punished? What sort of explanation can we even give if they realize what's going on? ]

Peach glanced at Lloyd who was unconscious in the corner [ He's not so scary when he's asleep. How did she even knock him out? That doesn't matter...serves him right for raiding the night market ]

Kofi simply poked at Leonardo's cheek, " How come you're awake Leo "? He scratched the back of his head and shrugged [ Did she just call me Leo? ] " I have really sharp senses. I could already sense the attack but it was too late. Luckily, the attacker didn't hit the right nerve ".

Kofi nodded, trying to sound concerned " The good thing is that you're all safe " [ You won't get away so easily next time ] Upon the ding of the elevator, they all picked a limb and began dragging them out.

Peach pulled Asher by his right leg, surprised by how light he was. Dylan pulled Rider by his right arm, trying to make sure he didn't hit his constantly bopping head on anything. They were all too afraid to pull Lloyd so they made him Kofi's problem, leaving Chase with Liston.

Leonardo stumbled into the apartment and fell on to the couch, " Thanks for the help Kofi. You can put them wherever ". Peach giggled, flinging Asher on to the rug in the center of the room. It made the others wince while she simply looked around excitedly [ She's ruthless ]

Dylan placed Rider on the floor in a sitting position and left him there. Kofi pulled Lloyd in by his two legs, not caring about what happened to the rest of him. She lugged him to the couch Leonardo was sleeping on.

She threw his legs on it, leaving his lower body on the rug. Chase held Liston up, confused and slightly scared " What about him "? Kofi shrugged as she looked back at the man, " We probably shouldn't leave him here ".

Chase frowned, " Why not "? She shrugged, opening the door wide " They were fighting cos of him. I don't know why but Lloyd and Leo really wanted to beat him up. Really fun to watch ". Dylan nodded, picking the man's legs " Good enough. Try the next apartment ".

Chase frowned, " Where did Peach go "? Kofi sighed as she walked back in, " I'll find her, you guys get him out of here ". They nodded and split up. Chase laughed as he picked the man's hand, " Isn't it weird how normal this seems all of a sudden "?

Dylan nodded as he used his leg to kick it ajar, " I think it's weirder how we think this is normal ". Chase nodded in agreement and they threw him onto the couch. Dylan looked around the place and whispered, " Looks even better than Kofi's place ".

" I think the bags in the elevator are his though ". Chase followed after, standing by the door " What makes you say that "? He shrugged, picking the suitcase and backpack " Just a hunch. I could be wrong though ".

Chase sighed as he let Dylan back in. He noticed a green jade on the floor. It was so small, it looked like a keychain and seemed to be shaped like a bird of some kind.

Kofi jogged out of the other apartment, Peach in tow the same time Dylan came back out. " Let's get going before things start going south ". Without much thought, he pocketed the jade and they ran into the elevator.

Kofi smiled as the doors closed, " That was definitely not boring ". The others sighed in defeat as they looked at her.
