Locke glanced at her hand. He grabbed onto her hand and dragged her to a less busy part of the hall way. "You'vw gad dreams that leak into reality, correct?" He asked once he was sure no one would hear them.

Anna pulled her hand away when she could. "How do you know?" She hissed, looking around. "Did you get a letter?"

Maddie’s eyes dimmed a bit before she answered. ”Dreams where the pain follows you.”
Her gaze drifted to her left hand with the colorful tattoo of a tilted teacup. ”Do you get those kind?”
Her head was starting to ache.

“Yes, actually,” Alexander replied, his eyes widening. “Your tattoo…It’s just like the mark on my hand.” Alexander showed her his left hand, which had the outline of a rabbit in black sharpie. “This is crazy.”

"Yes and so did you." He said, confident. "You are the adventurer, are you not? You have a flower."

"And you're the genius." She said, looking back down at his hand. "Meaning I'm not crazy."

"So that means there are three so far." Locke said. He pulled out his phone.
"I found another. The adventurer. Two to go." Locke sent.

"Three? Who's the other one?" She asked, tilting her head.

Maddie laughed, her eyes lighting back up. ”Isn’t everyone?” She reached into her ball cap and pulled out the note before she gripped her head.
”OW!!!! … Bad Kitty. … Watch your head. … Order… Duck!” She mumbled through the pain.

“Whoa you have a note just like me! Wait, are you okay?” Alexander asked, concerned. His phone alerted him that he had a message.

Actually one to go. I found the seer., he sent back.

“Well, guess what! I’m in contact with someone else just like us so four of us have been found! We just need the vanisher…” he added, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Actually four apparently. The trumpeter and they found the seer." He informed. "We are missing the vanisher."
"Good. Where do you live? We should meet up some where." Locke sent, hoping they weren't across the country.

"Okay." She said, nodding. "Hey, kind of weird, but… do you wake up with injuries too?" She asked suddenly, the throbbing in her leg getting worse.

Alexander smirked.

Hatchetfield, PA. Where do you live? Alexander hoped that it was nearby, or at least in the same state. What if the orhers didn’t even live in the U.S.?

“Do you think you can meet up sometime this week with the others?” Alexander added. “Oh, actually, can I get your number?”

(I'm just gonna say they live there.)

"Same. Do you know where Timber park is? Do you think we could meet up there?" Locke sent, surprised that they lived in the same town.
"Yes. I do have injuries." He said as he rolled up his sleeve relieving bandages that probably needed changing. "Do you have any right now?" He asked, seeing how she was putting less pressure on one leg.

Anna nodded, bending down and pulled up her pant leg as well as she could, reviling the bandaged cut on her leg. "They happen so often, I keep a first aid kit by the bed." She admitted.

(ok lol i just chose a random town name)

Yeah. Sounds good. Does 4pm work for you? Alexander replied.

"Yes, it does. What is your name?" Locke asked.
"That is smart." He said in a monotone voice. "Is 4 O'clock good for you to meet the others in Timber park?" He asked.

As the pain faded, Maddie reached into her backpack and pulled out a thermos, immediately drinking from it. ”He’ll be at the park after school.” Was all she managed to say at the moment.

“Did you read my phone?” Alexander asked, confused. He didn’t think she was able to see his screen, but there was no other way for her to know that…unless…

Alexander, and yours? he typed.

Anna nodded, pulling her pant leg down. "Yeah, it should." She said, putting the leg down.

”The cat, I mean.” Maddie said for once serious. ”Each of us have a mark. The one with a cat will be at the park after school.” she smiled madly again. ”I’m the seer after all.”

“Holy shit! You really saw that?” Alexander exclaimed. He stared at her in awe for a moment. Then the bell rang.

He was late for the second time that day. Great. “Actually, can you meet at the park at 4pm?”

"Locke. See you at 4." Locke sent.
"At 4 we will meet the seer and the trumpeter at Timber Park. We can figure things out from there." He said putting his phone away. "Meet me by the tree out front after school." He told Anna.

(Time skip to after school soon?
