The Gospel Den, a home for the gifted. Alex sat on the floor, just staring at Serena. Both were five, both were from the nearby town of Eden, both were gifted. Mrs. Callahan sat on the couch with both sets of parents. "They're communicating, talking to one another, we just can't hear them."
Outside, they came. A group of four black sedans pulled onto the stone driveway. Out stepped a mix of black suited men, from Japanese to Russian. Then, they're leader. The masked figure stepped out and stared at the house. "Ist dieses es?" The man beside him nodded. "Ja sollten die Kinder nach innen sein." The leader looked back to the house. "Good."
The doorbell rang, breaking Alex and Serena's concentration. Mrs. Callahan stood and walked to the door, before she reached it the piece of wood was forced in, taking her down with it. "Alrighty everyone, don't move and you should be fine!" The masked leader, followed by his men, walked into the living room. "Men, round up everyone. We'll explain their situation then." |
