so he did."
"That was your decision to tell him that. But I thought you would want him here when we go to the Skincrawler's layer," William said.
Reece nodded, not really listening to anyone talking to and around her. She just wanted to go home and sleep, but she knew she couldn't do that.
"Reece?" Evernime was looking at Reece, a worried look on her face.
Reece looked up. "Hmm?"
"You don't really look so good. You okay?" Evernime asked, stepping closer to her just in case she passed out or something like that.
"I'm fine, why?"
Creon looked over at her. He agreed with Evernime that she didn't look so good.
Suddenly, Reece felt sick.
William saw it all over her face. "You guys are right, she doesn't look too good. Lets get her out of here and hide somewhere."
Reece shook her head, unable to speak. She didn't want to vomit in front of a bunch of random people she didn't know.
They all helped walk her out of the place and they walked down the block right to the Bellagio, stopping in front of the area where the light, water and music show would start up when it got dark.
William grabbed Reece's arm and pulled her along. "Do you want to go in here and stay?" Creon and Evernime followed Reece and William as they made their way to the hotel entrance.
Right when they made it to the entrance doors, a bell man was standing to the right and another to the left, and both looked at Reece, who was loosing her color in her face fast.
The bell man at the left stepped near Reece and asked if she was all right. Reece nodded, but she knew she was wrong. Something was terribly wrong, and she knew it, but kept denying it.
William told the bell man that she was just not used to the Las Vegas air and was getting sick because of it, then told Evernime to check them in two rooms that connected with a door in between each other.
Reece barely made it into the elevator before she collapsed in William's arms.


Reece woke up to see William staring at her from the edge of the bed.
"Reece? You awake?" William asked, taking her hand in his.
Reece sat up slowly, but regretted it because she was in pain. She groaned and laid back down. "I am now. What's going on?"
"I think your powers are trying to take over. I have never actually seen it, but that's what Evernime said. She also said that we shouldn't be in here because at first your going to be in pain, and then your powers will go out of control and then it will seem like your going crazy. But that was what happened to her, so we really don't know what is going to happen to you. So, I think that we shouldn't have come here. We should have went back to my place."
"But if Evernime is right, then I would probably destroy your place and I don't want to do that to your place, William. We can go to a back alley or something," Reece said, not able to talk louder than a small whisper because it hurt too much.
William could see that she was in pain. He didn't like it.
"Reece, what happened between you and Griffen? I mean, I can see that you do care a great amount about him, so..."
Reece smiled and squeezed his hand. "Yes, I do care about him. He was my very first real friend. I never had friends. He was the only one before you that actually stood by me and listened to my problems. I never had someone like that. We became friends the minute that we met."
"I cannot see you not having friends, Reece. Your too beautiful to not have friends," William whispered.
Reece looked up at him. She might have just met him two or three days ago or how many days ago, but she loved him. She's never had someone to look at her like he does. Griffen might look at her like he likes her, but not the way William does.
"Same to you too, William," Reece said, chuckling.
William smiled and kissed her forehead. "I am going to stand by you through it all. And if I can't then that means I died trying."
"What are you talking about?" Reece asked, lifting her head.
"If something doesn't go the way we want it to when we do go to the Skincrawlers layer, I'm going to fight till death beside you."
"You know, that's what Griffen said, then he left the next day because he was only thinking of himself," Reece said.
"But I'm not Griffen, Reece. I will never leave you. Nothing is going to stop me from trying everything in my power, which isn't very much considering that I don't really have powers to help save you. No one will lay a hand on you without your word," William said, standing up.
"Where is Evernime and Creon?" Reece asked, looking around the large room.
"In the other room," William said, pointing to a closed door on the far wall.
"What are they doing?" Reece asked, slowly sitting up even though she was in pain.
"Trying to make a plan for when we get to the Skincrawler's layer."
"We don't even know where the Skincrawler's layer is. But I think I do know someone who does," Reece said.
"Yeah, Creon does."
Reece slapped her forehead. She forgot that he is a Skincrawler. "Oh, right. I forgot. Bring them in, if you want them to."
William knocked on the door and opened it when he heard Evernime say it was okay. "Reece wants to see you both I think."
A few seconds later, Evernime and Creon came into the room, smiles on both of their faces.
"Hey, sleepy head. How are you doing?" Evernime asked, sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Fine I guess. I just woke up I think. How long was I asleep?" Reece asked, smiling.
"Only a few hours. Your powers can make you tired. At least your color in your face is coming back. Mine didn't come back for a whole week. I cannot believe how well you are taking this!" Evernime said, shaking her head in disbelief.
"What do you mean?" Reece asked, confused.
"Your powers like to take there time taking over your body. Usually someone would take a whole week maybe more to fully develop their powers. But your recovering so much faster than I had. I didn't get my color back until a few hours after I got my full powers."
"You mean that all my powers are going to be fully developed?" Reece asked, her heart racing from excitement.
"Yes. And you might get more powers than you need or want to get. So like I was telling William and Creon, I don't think that we should be here. If you accidentally destroy something in this room, then we will have to pay for it or go to jail."
Reece thought about the word accident. She had an accident once. She had killed someone that worked for her at her restaurant. Her name is Monika.
Reece looked up and frowned. "I should call Monika and say I am sorry for accidentally killing her that one time, shouldn't I, Creon?"
Creon smiled. "She got over that a long time ago. Well, not all that long ago. You can if you want. She's at home right now probably peeing for the hundredth time today because of the baby inside her."
Everyone laughed and Evernime handed Reece the phone that came with the room.
Reece didn't know Monika's number, so she asked Creon and he gave it to her. She dialed it and let it ring for what seemed like forever.
"You know who I am talking about. Your stupid husband that knocked you up. Where is he? If you don't talk I will kill both of you, you and your little pig inside of you!" A male voice said sounding distant. Then the line went dead, the phone beeping.
Reece hanged the phone up and looked right at Creon, who had been looking out the window. "Creon."
Creon turned to Reece, knowing that her voice was shaking, which told him something that he probably didn't want to hear.
"What?" Creon asked, his heart racing. He really hoped that nothing was wrong.
"Dial the number again and listen closely to it," Reece said, not daring to say anything else.
Creon grabbed the phone from Reece's lap and dialed Monika's cell phone number. He listened to what Reece had heard and dropped the phone.
"Oh, my God..." Creon looked up at Evernime, William and Reece, who were still looking at the phone that dropped onto the rugged floor.
"What happened?" Evernime asked, picking the phone up.
"I think that was Erone talking. He said that if Monika didn't tell him where I was, he would kill her. I have to go and see if she's fine!" Creon said, grabbing his coat.
"Creon, there is no need to be rational. That could just be some recording that Erone wanted to put there so he could find you!" Evernime said, grabbing Creon's wrist.
Creon's face began to turn a deep red with anger. "If you do not let go of me right now, I will do what all the other Skincrawlers do when they get hungry."
"Who's Erone?" William asked.
The name sounded familiar to Reece, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Erone is my creator, and I know that he didn't put that on her phone. Erone isn't like that. He will kill Monika if she doesn't tell him where I am. She will die no matter what she does. Roney must be with him too. They never go anywhere without each other!" Creon said.
"Who are they?" William asked.
"They claim to be the first leaders of the Skincrawlers before the King and Queen. They do not take mercy from anyone. They will kill her if they don't get what they want. They believe that they carry the Devil inside them! If they do anything to Monika, I will give them more Hell on Earth then they can make in a year!" Creon started looking around the room.
"Creon, what are you looking for?" Reece asked, throwing her feet off the side of the large soft fuzzy bed.
"I need some money. I need to get back to our house and see if she's fine!" Creon said, throwing drawers on the floor.
"Creon," Reece said. She grabbed his shoulder. Creon stopped and looked at her tears in his eyes. "We are going with you. Everything is going to be fine, just call a cab and I will pay for it. Its okay."
Creon looked around blindly and nodded. "Okay. I just really need to see if she and the baby is okay. I just have to!"
William went to the front of the room where a small fridge was and grabbed everything that was in it, which was just the left over pizza that Evernime had grabbed on the way out of the pizza place.
"But Reece cannot go anywhere! Her powers are still trying to take over her!" Evernime said, stepping in front of Reece, who was thankfully all dressed in the clothes she had worn the same day.
"I am fine now. This is important to him, and I think since he is going to help us, we need to help him. You cannot stop us from leaving," Reece said, lifting Evernime into the air and moved her out of the way so she could look at Creon. She
