“Great. Let’s hurry, I don’t want to take any chances.”

“Helios, sneak in with Penny to keep guard, we’ll be patrolling out here to make it less suspicious.”

“If we get caught we’re dead. My mom will send me right back to therapy.”

“If we’re caught, I’m afraid I might hurt your mum.” In regards to Penny’s mother, Helios’ words were bitter.

“I hope it doesn’t come to that.”

“Let’s get started, shall me?”

Josh messed with his baggy green pants that were starting to fall down.

She nods. “Lets’s move.”

Josh and Quinton took position at either end of the house. Josh was watching Helios and Penny while Quinn was watching Leighton-who was now wearing an official DEMA uniform-start to patrol.

She carefully picks the lock to her house and goes inside. She waits for Helios while trying to think of the quietest way to navigate the house.

Helios follows after her, entirely too light on her feet as she glanced around the house. She peeked her head into the living room, frowning softly.

“Their nursery is probably my old room, which is upstairs. C’mon,” she whispers.

She nods, stopping in her tracks to turn and follow Penny.

She leads Helios upstairs to her old room, and she was right. Inside the room has been redecorated as a nursery and there’s a crib. She freezes, but then slowly makes her way to the crib. She looks down and smiles. “I have a brother!” she whispers excitedly to Helios.

“Now’s not the time, doll. Let’s get back out then we can get lovey-dovey over ‘im.”

Helios starts to shiver, pulling on her grey hoodie.

“Right, right. Go downstairs, and at the end of the first hallway is my dad’s office. His birth certificate should be in there, go find out his name. I’m going to write a note to my parents, then we can grab him and go.”

Helios nods and moves, footsteps leaving an almost silent pitter-patter in her wake. She’s gone for a minute or so, and returns, smiling slightly.

“His name is Connor.”

Her smile grows and she puts the letter next to the crib where her parents will see it. It explains that Connor is safe and was not taken by a stranger. She grabs a few things, such as toys and books, and puts them in her back. “I should grab some formula and bottles downstairs on our way,” she thinks out loud. She carefully picks Connor up and holds him gently in her arms. She’s about to step out of the room when she pauses. She turns back around and takes a framed picture of her parents and shoves it in her bag as well.

Helios looks around, tired eyes finally falling back on Penny and Connor. "Let's hurry and get outta here. Josh and Leighton can't keep up the illusion long."

It was dark in the city by the time they met up with Leighton, the bandito that had contacted Penny first. Leighton and Quinton had a brief moment of brotherly love, hugs, fistbumps. It was cute. But Josh quickly snapped them out of it, looking back at the twins with a little sigh. “In and out really quick. Matthias said your parents were already asleep, Pen.”

“The ocean is so mysterious at night…” -Helios

“I’ve never seen the ocean before… or even been out of Ohio. This is amazing, Helios,” she looks over and smiles at her.

“I uh, I came out here with dad and Tate back in… 2012? Me and ‘er were seven.” She gave a little smile back, wobbling into the cold water. Fuck, this could be dangerous, oh well. “We can stay ‘ere as long as ya’d like. Ri and Zach said we could crash in the hotel.”

She takes her shoes off and rolls up her pants and puts a foot in the water, squealing when she feels how cold it is. “It’s so much prettier than I ever imagined,” she admitted.

“The big cities tend to lie about how pretty it really is.” She hummed, offering the other a hand. “Nothing’s gonna get you. A fish might brush your leg, but it’s not gonna hurt ya.”

She takes Helios’ hand and slowly wades into the water. “I’ve never actually gone swimming before… the closest thing I’ve done is getting in a bathtub.”

“The ocean is like a giant bathtub! But with more fish, and larger toys.” She pointed out to the abandoned boats that littered the horizon.

“….and a whole lot deeper,” she says warily.

“I won’t take ya out too far, promise.”

“Okay, cause I can’t swim. So doing so would end in disaster.”

“Swimmin’ is one of my strong suits.” She laughed softly.
