Skye, mustering her courage, Skye nodded. "Yeah, actually, I do. You stay away from my Clone, and I'll go and warm her next chance I get.

"I can get your clone, and she will be tortured or you can come with us and we will safely give her to the supeirors. Besides, do you think these boys like clones anymore than you?" Annie taunted noticing a supieor helicopter coming, she was hoping they would just stay long enough.

Skye followed Annie's gaze and swore quietly. "Crap. Arlen? Yeah, well, there's a hellicopter coming. And we'd better go. Like, now."

Arlen nodded. "Gotcha. Time to go, boys." Revving the ATV, Arlen and Skye shot forward, a trail of dust following them like a shadow.

Ren and Leif went into invisible and shadow mode, odviously more in control of then there 'clones',"Bye,bye miss Annie, hope you don't get in trouble!"Leif shouted following Ren.

Arlen let out a wild laugh as his hair was tugged at by the wind screaming past them. Letting out a whoop, he called to Skye, "ATVs are great, aren't they?"

"Definately!" Skye called back, laughing aloud for the first time in...Well, she didn't know how long ago she had really laughed.

Ren thought to Arlen,'Dude, should we go find them now, even with Skye? Or should we just wait? Maybe she knows were they are. But you are right about not telling them we are clones. But I seriously want to get my hands on. My original and do worse' then Leif did to his.'

Arlen shrugged. 'What does it matter, man? Yea, we can go see them, and I know Skye'll want to warn the Clones that she is trying to protect. I think we should tell her that we're Clones... She's one of those wonky Originals who seem to like our kind.'

'Ok, well ask her where they are.'Ren thought.

"Skye?" Arlen asked the girl. "Where is your Clone and her friends?"

"Why'd you want to know?" Skye asked suspiciously.

"Ren, and I were wondering if we could help you warn them, is all."

"Oh," Skye shook her head to clear it. "Sorry. I've been around untrustworthy people for so long..."

Arlen immediately felt guilty. Renaldo and Lief had violent ideas in store for their Clones, while he himself was unsure of his feelings for his own. "Yeah...right."

'Arlen, keep going . We need to find out where they are, it does not matter what you going to do, she wants warn who she knows,but she does not know ours. So we need to know.' Ren said persistantly.

'Yeah, yeah, I'm goin'.' Banishing his guilt, Arlen said, "So, and idea where they are?"

Skye shook her head. "Nope. But.... Well, I guess I have an idea... California?"

Arlen resisted the strong urge to facepalm. Instead, he said, "Alright. That's a long ways away, but..."

((Should we do the whole skip time thing?)) 'Yes, we are going to get them!'Ren thought excidedly.

((Just do this..... TIME SKIP!!!!!!))

'Calm yourself! And you'd better have a pretty good was of covering up their absenceses when to get them..." Arlen thought threateningly.

'Dude, don't worry we will leave a note or just take them in the middle in the night and get as far away as posible.' Ren thought calmly seeing a girl you looked exactly like the bossy one. She was invisble and talking to some shadow girl((here's a little fact about invisible people thay can see other invisible people.)) 'What are you telling the girl?' Leif thought to Arlen.

'Her name's Skye,' Arlen shot back at Lief.

'At least I had the sense to remember her name!'Ren thought at Leif.'Wow! Ok what will you tell Skye?!?' Leif shot at Arlen.

'I dunno, but I'm starting to ave second thoughts about this...' Arlen replied mentally.

Skye's brow furrowed. "You guys aren't communicating telepathically, are you?"

Arlen nodded. "Yeah."

"Oh. Well, okay."

"We just need to make sure they are asleep before we get in." Leif said watching the girl yell and run into the house.

"Lief," Arlen said, smacking his forhead. "You just said that out loud."

Skye's eyes widened. "What do you mean? What are you boys planning?"

Arlen looked to Lief. "Well, man, you can take this one. Your blunder, not mine."

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh well, I ment to say. You should probably go now and tell your clone." Leif said turning into a shadow. "Doubt he is coming back, we just want to 'take care' of some people, that's all." Ren said trying to make up for Leif's stupidity.

((Slow down. Your a little ahead of the clones))

((Actually we are about two hours behind them.))

((Oh, i see))

((Yep))

Skye was beginning to doubt these boys that she had so readily trusted. "Just don't hurt anyone..." She had gotten the feeling that what she had warned them not to do was exactly their intentions. But she still knew one thing that the boys didn't: the location of the secret room.

Arlen read Skye's mind like the print off the back of a book. 'Oh, so she does know where they are...' he thought to himself. 'This information is very...interesting.'

((How would she know? She wasn't there.))

'Dude this girl is getting better and better.' Ren thought pulling Leif over and slapping him upside the head.'Stupid,you need to think!'

((It's all part of my plan, Talia. Just wait and see... Let the mystery unfold, kay? And Rosie, Arlen never told Renaldo where it was. He was thinking to HIMSELF, not Ren. So Renaldo still doesn't know. Got it? Thanks.))

Arlen furrowed his brow in confusion. 'What was that, Ren?'

((Ok ,got it)) 'What ohi don't know I was smacking Leif upside the headfor his stupidity.'Ren thought not watching the house for a sign that a of them are sleeping.

((Wanna fastforward a while? So we can finally say that they're all caught up?))

Arlen stared daggers at Renaldo and Leif, silently bidding them to cease their idiocy. "We'd better find somewhere to crash," Arlen stated, looking up at the mansion.

"We might as well sneak in there," Skye said, pulling a bobby-pin out of her pocket. "Never use these anyways," she muttered, dashing to the door and picking the lock. "We're in." Motioning for the boys to follow her, Skye tiptoed inside.

"C'mon, guys," Arlen called softly to Renaldo and Leif, streaking after Skye.

((Gotta go to softball. laters))
