"Hell's only just begun."

Hana stepped back for the eighth time to look at her paintings.

All four of them sat there, looking innocent at first, until you got a closer look at them.

Hana frowned as her fingers lightly traced one of the buildings of the destroyed town, there was something familiar about it…

"Why do I keep painting you?" Hana muttered, her brown eyes looking across the four paintings that sat there.

"Hana!"

The woman's head turned around to the doorway of her paintings stash room to see the worried face of Alik, "What's wrong?" She asked him.

"I called you like eight times," Alik frowned, looking past her to see the four identical paintings, "You're still puzzling over those?"

Hana sighed, running a hand through her hair, "You've got to admit it, it is weird how I painted the same thing four times."

"Sleep-painting as well," Alik pointed out, leaning against the doorframe, "You sure you don't dream?"

Hana nodded, "Not a single dream since I was eight."

Alik nodded, a confused look across his face as he thought about it, "That's a bit odd in itself."

Hana shrugged, "I wouldn't know."

Hana's world had been turned upside down within moments.

One moment, Hana had been quietly painting, then next Alik was screaming her name, saying something about an attack on Jasper. The next had her trying to drive as fast as she could with Alik in her van helping pick up anyone on their way and her in her pick up truck.

It was so confusing at certain moments. When the majority of the town had evacuated, they had met a barrier of military machinery. There had been a small hold up before the Jasper citizens were allowed to keep going.

When Hana unfortunately had to ditch her pick up truck, she helped those that she had managed to pick up on the way through the town. The Richardson kids were held out of the van by Alik a short distance away.

Hana managed to make her way over to Alik, "Do you know what happened?" Her voice was barely heard over the sound of everyone else's voices.

"Not really," Alik said loudly, "I just got a text from Pan saying to get everyone out of town as fast as I could, then the military came in and started evacuating the houses around us."

Hana nodded, "You didn't happen to see Pan, Jack, Raf, or Miko yesterday at school?"

Alik's face displayed his confusion, "They were there all day yesterday, and today. Why?"

Hana looked to the darkening sky above them, "I just have a feeling…" she trailed off as she looked back at where they had come from the small town of Jasper.

It was the town from her painting.

"Alik," Hana jerked him to a stop, turning him around so he could see.

"What-?" His eyes widened, "No way."

If you looked at the town of Jasper from where they stood in that instant, it was the exact same position you would see the town from in Hana's paintings.

"He's going to destroy Jasper," Hana's murmur made Alik look at the woman, her face downcast.

Alik winced when the words finally sunk in for him, "Hana-"

"Let's go," Hana interrupted, turning away from the soon to be destroyed Jasper and following the rest of the people evacuating it.

Alik sighed, "You really screwed up this time, Megatron."

Here's Chapter Nineteen.

Damn it, Megs. Even Alik agrees with me!

Hope you enjoyed!
