She nodded, slowly. She fumbled with her hair a bit then let it fall over her left eye so it couldnt be seen. She was normally so much more careful about keeping her secret. She assumed the reason she was slipping up so much was the stress. She could not wait to get home.

Jeremy was half and half. If hewent bakc itd bewar 24/7. But if he stayed.....he didnt want to know what would happen.

He gingerly started digging the dirt around the pike. He could at least move it. Pribably. He was bored anyay.

Raz stood up. Without warning, she started walking off. After a few minutes, she returned and sat back down against a nearby tree, perfectly silent.

Jeremy was too nervous to ask why shed moved. Mostly because he was still very jittery about asing peiple more intrusivethings, unlike most of his family. He finally got the soike out and stuffed it in his pocket before picking up the rock, climbing a nearby tree, and settlign in. Nowthis was more normal for him.

She shut her eyes and crossed her arms. The sun was going down. Around now she would normally start playing a song, but she couldnt. Instead, she started humming quietly, seemingly the same tune as before.

Jerey settled in his tree spot. This was nice. He stared up through the branhes of the tee, admirign the dusk view and tthe coloes of the sunset. Whtting his etes, he could almost see his oldesr sisters harmonixing a song about the currentsituation, , his oldest brother humming a tune or two and his otherbrother skething or paintig the view.....

Raz stood up again. She held her hands over her ears and stumbled over to the shelter she had made earlier. She had picked up a rather high pitched noise a distance off and it was causing her pain, lots of it. She bit her lip to keep from yelling.

Jeremy toppled out of the tree, bsrely catching himself witha hook hat shot out of hi belt. "What the-Hey Raz, know whats hapening?!" He yelled down as he tried to figure out how to untie himself while swinign arlund dangerously high up.

She let her hands drop from her ears, the noise now dying away. No! She yelled back. She wasnt sure if he could have heard it. It had sounded too far off and too high pitched to be heard by most. She just shivered and walked out. She carefully helped him down and shrugged.
