29 drops of blood

A bit nervous I make my over to the courtroom, I still haven't told Josh that it's court and not just further questioning.

Around fifty people are sitting in the room, is this everyone they thought were suspicious?
How is this "further questioning" ever going to work out?

Quickly I figure out they are going alphabetically and since my last name is Wood, I am going to be here for a long.. long.. time.

It really isn't a normal trial, I don't even think you could call it that.

They start at the top of the list and speak with everyone about why they were suspicious and what they were doing.
I think they just use to courtroom to put some pressure on us in the hope someone breaks and admits, but I'm not going to do that.

When around twenty or so are left for questioning, the door fling open.
Two males in uniforms walk in followed by five other people, they look horrible.

'Sorry they are late, we couldn't let them leave the factory sooner.'

Wait.. factory?
The factory my mom is in?

They are forced to sit down at alphabetically order between us, luckily we're just with twenty.. not fifty.
A women sits down next to me wait..

'Mom?' I whisper.
'Teddy? Teddy what are you doing here, why did you come to this world?'
'I was looking for you,' I whisper back before focusing on the questions they ask, I need to prepare myself and make my story believable.

After what feels like hours and probably is, it is my turn.

I stand in the middle, with a man before me and two men on both sides.

'Please state your name, age and occupation.'
'Uhm.. well I'm Teddy Wood, I'm seventeen years old and I uhm.. I work at a restaurant, I'm a waiter,' I say talking slowly trying to calm down.
'We're just going to ask you some questions okay?'
'Don't speak so nice to him, he might be the one who did it.'
'Mr Parker, I understand you.. but it's just a child, we should just keep calm.'

The man rolls his eyes but keeps quiet.

They asks me some basic questions and time goes by slowly.

'So.. what do you think J.F.L LW stands for?'
'I'm sorry?' I reply since I haven't heard them ask that question before. 'It was written on the back of the file J.F.L LW, you have a young mind.. what do you think it means?'
'I don't know, it looks random to me,' I simply answer.
'I don't believe that that's all you can think of.'
'I don't know a name or something, like people do with graffiti.'
'Wouldn't that be a really long name?' 'Maybe it just isn't one name, maybe it's more than one.'

I think carefully about what I say, I don't want to ruin things for me. 

'That wouldn't explain the dots.'
'I was just suggesting something,' I mumble quietly.
'We know.. we know, don't worry.' 'The files suddenly appeared.. do you maybe have a theory about that too?' One of the men asks.
'Maybe someone flew above the city?' 'They didn't all fall out of the sky.'
'I haven't got any clue.'

They ask me more questions, questions I was prepared to get asked.. so I answer them just the way I studied them.

After that I'm free to leave.. well, we leave in groups of five so I do need to wait for a bit.

But it's finally time, we walk through the door.. when I hear his name.

'Louise Wood.'

In shock I hope we move out of the building quickly.

'That's just an assumption!'
'Get that mother and son.'

As soon as I hear that I use my power.

'Louise care to explain?' I yell immediately.
'I always mark my work Teddy.'
'You used me!'
'No, you want this as bad as I want it.. we're the same Teddy.'
'What do you want me to do now.. spend my life in prison?' I ask.
'You won't go to prison.. they will eliminate you, you need to run.. run as hard as you can.'
'But they will find me even more suspicious.'
'That doesn't matter, they will eliminate everyone with the last name Wood, they thought they had broken the connection, but they didn't since I can reach you.'

What is he saying..

'But what will happen to my mother?' 'She isn't a Wood, she just married one.. they won't touch her.'

I do as he says and as soon as I stop using my power I start running.. running as hard as I can.

After a long time of running I seem to have found a hiding spot.

'Josh I know you can hear me, they know. They know his name so now they will eliminate every Wood they find. I don't know where to go, if I go home they will find me. If I go to the human world they will find me.'
'It's okay Teddy, get your mind straight. You'll think of something,' he answers.. he answers?

He can communicate back to me?

'Josh? You never said we could talk to eachother.'
'Ted focus, make your way to the portal and go to my house.'

I nod even though he isn't able to see that and make my way to the portal.

When the coast looks clear I run, run as hard as I can towards the portal. But right when I want to go through I get pulled back.

'Teddy Wood, you're under arrest for trying to sabotage the government and causing agitation.'

Fuck..

Fuck, I'm so screwed.
