Chapter 23

May's POV

L grabs some scissors beside him and cut into the air. A purple portal opens up and an image of a playpark shows. "I'm going to set you some tasks." He unties my hands and legs, but I don't run when I'm free.

"And these are?" I ask, with an evil glint in my eye. That jab is defiantly an and Lucifiar can see that. I get up from the seat, stretching my legs. I don't know how long he has had me for but from the click in my knees, I know I've been gone for at least 6 hours.

"You need to break up your family. You can do it any way you want but do one way or another." He says, crossing his arms across his chest. "But I would recommend putting your family in a bad mood before attempting to break them up. Better results."

"And I have to find out how to do this myself?" I shoot him a glare. "Goodbye L." I step through the portal, the purple mist surrounding me. When I step out, I recognise the park that I've walked into. It's the one not too far from my home.

Let's cause havoc.

*** Sometime Later ***

I walk through the door of my own house, sighing. I wonder if anyone is home? Only one way to find out. "I'M HOME!" I scream, my voice echoing throughout the house.

For a moment it goes quiet. Maybe they're not here? "May?!" I hear Grace shout from the living room. The door flies open and suddenly I'm in a bone-crushing hug. "May you had me so worried!"

"I-I'm fine." I gasp for air as she crushes my ribs. Her ginger hair blocks my eyesight but I can feel her tears on my shoulder. "Grace, seriously, I wasn't even gone for that long."

"May, don't even try to sugar coat this. You got kidnapped! I was this close to phoning the police." She holds my face in her hands and I see the worry on her face. "What did he do to you?"

"Nothing that I can't heal." I smile at her as others begin to stream into the hallway. Cleo runs towards me and crushes my bones, again.

"Don't. You. Ever. Do. That. To. Me. Again." She cries into my shoulder. I pat her on the back, laughing. "I couldn't save you, I'm so sorry."

"It's fine. You weren't allowed to use your powers anyway, it probably would've been worse if you did." I grin. Cleo inspects me but she doesn't find anything, giving a look of approval.

"No physical injuries. And you're talking normally so no mental injuries either." She knocks on my head. "We were all looking for you! Where did he take you?"

"I'm not sure. His lair probably." I think back to my mission. I need to get started as soon as possible. Who to start with? Parents or Grace? "Sorry for worrying you all."

"We're just all happy that you're ok." Anna comes in. "How about you and Cleo run upstairs?" She says and I follow Cleo up.

Great, now I won't be able to talk to Grace. But, I guess I can attempt to take Cleo away from messing up our plan. The evil jab is doing its job well. I walk into my room and sit on my bed. Cleo pulls up a chair beside me.

"What did he tell you? Did he try to change you?" Cleo asks and I sigh. "Sorry, it must've been hard."

"No, it's fine. He was actually ok. He told me a lot of things, some that were helpful." I play with my fingers. She makes a noise and shuffles towards me in her seat.

"Helpful? May...he's evil. Anything that he says is going towards the destruction of the world!" She looks at me with wide eyes and I look away from her. Should I try to convert her like L did to me?

"Actually, what he said, I agreed with," I comment, holding my head high. I can tell by her eyes, she wants to know what he said. "Did you know, if a family has many people in it with powers, they can as dangerous as a destructive."

"May what are you-"

"And, if that were to happen, you need to take them all away?" I blabber on. Cleo almost falls off her seat. "That's what he told me anyway."

"You listened to him?! I don't think you understand what he's trying to tell you." She warns me but I continue anyway. I need to get her to join my team.

"Oh, I understand! That's why he took away Peter. Or at least, he tried to. Because our family could be destructive. Although, what he did was for his own good as we were a danger to him. You know?"

"No May. I don't know." She grits through her teeth.

"Well, as Grace is against the SSE, the whole family tend to be. So, L needed to get rid of Peter so that he is safe." I continue. Cleo stands up and walks towards the door. "Where are you going?"

I throw my hand towards the door and a transparent shield comes up between her and the exit. She touches it and it electrocutes her. "May! Let me out!"

"Not until I've told you everything. Cleo, if we were to join together, we would be able to help the SSE!" I smile as Cleo backs away from me. "A destructive, joining together with a destructive family and one of the biggest villains would be the best team ever!"

"May you're scaring me. The old you would never say this. What has he put in you?" Cleo's eyes dart for an exit.

"Just an evil jab. Cleo, join us!"

"Cleo! We need to go!" Anna's voice shouts up the stairs and my shield breaks. Cleo gives me one last look before running out the room. I stay put until I hear the door close and the voices of Cleo and Anna disappear.

Then I hear Mat saying goodbye, and of course, I love you, to Grace before he leaves also with Emily. I think I just had an idea. "May, you can come down now!" Grace says and I hurry down the stairs, eager to get on with my plan.

I stroll into the living room, now looking concerned. Obviously this is all an act, but I hope that Grace doesn't see past it. "Hey, sis."

"May, I need to know what he did to you." Grace starts worry flashing across her face. "Did he give you anything?"

"Nope. Nothing has changed since...actually." I look down and I hear her breathing hitch. "There's something you need to know." I sit down next to her and touch her hands.

"What did he do to you?" She asks and I shake my head quickly. "This is about something else?"

"It's about...." I pause for effect, "Mat." I spit his name out. I should get an award for this amount of acting!

"Mat? What has he done?" Now, Grace looks confused. The plan is going well. "May. Tell me."

"I saw him. When I went missing, I went to the forest first because I thought I would find Flora practicing. But....instead, I found Mat. Grace, I'm sorry." I avoid eye contact with her.

"What did he do?" And now I can hear the fear again but for a different reason. And I'm about to bring her fear to life.

"I saw him kissing someone...a girl with blonde hair. They were there for quite a while..." I trail off. Tears form in Grace's eyes and a sob is released. She raises a shaky hand to her mouth. "Grace, I had to tell you."

"Why? Why would he do something like that?!" She cries and I hug her.

Why indeed
