Secret Stays Hidden
I walked over, seeing Tris, Tobias, Demetrius, Marley and Charlotte talking. "Um, has anyone seen Pope or June?" I ask and Tobias looks at me. "June is with his kids, Sunstorm and Monochrome. And Pope said he was going for a walk." I give a blank look. "Oh." With that, I walk into the house. I look around. Everyone was either sleeping or talking to each other. I walk into my room and I pull the butterfly colored rug from in front of my closet, revealing a trapdoor. I pull it open and walk into it. I walk downstairs, holding a lantern. I walk into a cave-like space before I whistle loudly and roars erupt throughout the cave. I throw the lantern to the side and the wood it crashes against bursts into flames, revealing a thousand Predacons who growl, roar and hiss. I walk up to a dragon predacon and gently brush his helm. His light green optics gaze into my light brown eyes as he softly growl. "Easy, ShadowBlaze." I say with a chuckle before I walk to another Predacon. This one was a snake. Viper. I kneel down and gently pat her helm. After a few minutes, I go back upstairs before placing the rug back where it was. "Paige, can you come down to my room please?" June called out. "Coming!" I say before I close the closet door and walk to my cousin's room. June, Pope, Griffin and Marley stand in his room. June places a Predacon bone on his bed and looks at me. "Explain this please." Griffin sighed deeply. "You know Predaking wouldn't exactly be surprised about the fact that you, Paige, of all people, are finding predacon bones." Pope said. I facepalm, "and the predacons are my last concern." "Paige, those are Predaking's brethren you're resurrecting!" Pope exclaims. "And he doesn't know." I say emphatically. "B-but that's—!" "Listen, Popey, the Bible says..." "Don't you put that Bible on me!" Pope suddenly says and I give him a look. "Boy, the wealth of the wicked will be laid up- hey! Quit that!" I say, lightly smacking Marley's hand away from the bone she was apparently poking at. Marley gives me a blank look, "predacons? You have to tell Predaking. He deserves to know!" I glare at her, "deserves to know? Marley, Predaking doesn't even know these predacon bones or predacons are even here!" "Oh he will-!" Pope reaches his hand towards the bone before I lightly whack at it with the end of a flaming rod (I was wearing a glove), making him move back. Holding his hand close to his chest, he gives me a baffled look. "What happened to the adorable, bisexual, Christian girl I was just talking to?" "She's still here, she's still here. Defending this bone." "Paige, do you think that's fair?" Griffin asked. "I don't know. Is it?" I say, looking directly at Pope. He glares, "I have nothing to do with this! Just because I look up to Predaking, I am not telling him anything." "Yes the Heavenly Kingdom you are!" Floyd said. "Shut up, Floyd!" Pope shouted and I winced before I carried the predacon bone with my psychic abilities down to June's lab in the crystal basement. I placed it on the floor before a sudden pain suddenly went through my head and chest. I staggered back and fell to the ground, my vision blurring. It wasn't long before the void of unconsciousness reached me.
