This chapter is dedicated to @ThisMightDestroyYou thank you for voting on every chapter! Above is a picture of Damien Zales who is played by Reece King. Listen to There's a new world coming from Miss Peregrines home for peculiar children above, I feel like it does describe TFY well.

~Adams POV~

"Goodnight Kaia." I gave her a convincing smile.
"Goodnight Adam." She gave me a real smile back, one that sent a pang of guilt through my stomach. She looked so happy but that was going to be over soon.

I leaned in and gave her a goodnight kiss. It wasn't as frenzied and passionate as our first one, it was sweet and slow.

W-Kaia was like a breath of fresh air. Every time I was around her I felt more freedom then anywhere else. I knew I shouldn't be thinking that way though. My job was to seduce her, keep her close, not the other way around. I just needed to protect her until they cracked, and I could tell the time was getting nearer.

I pored every ounce of energy I could into her, hoping that it would trigger something. I was right and as I looked behind her I noticed the potted flower by the door shaking.

Telekinesis, now we were getting somewhere.

I knew some of her other abilities had come through, like the psychic weapon she sent my way at the football game. I knew some sort of power had resurfaced and I was pretty sure it was mind reading why else would she be answering questions no one had asked?

She pulled away from the kiss and grinned it me, her beautiful brown eyes sparkling with energy. "See you soon Adam." She winked before opening her door and going inside. I stood there a few more minutes to collect my thoughts before returning to the truck I stole from one of those fake apartments.

I returned it there before heading back to my own 'home.'

'Dad' was sitting on the couch and offered me a quick wave before I disappeared upstairs to my room.

I'm pretty sure they were already onto me but it was odd they hadn't struck yet. Maybe they were waiting to see what would happen.

I just wished I could just talk to someone from base but of course there were no phones and even if there was I still couldn't use it without getting killed.

I was probably going to be killed anyway, but at least I could try and free them and most importantly her.

Wynn Noble, the strongest of our kind.

I remember when I was little and her parents would bring her to base, they were spies and in pretty deep with the government before they were caught trying to hide Wynn.

They were executed soon after.

She was always the most I interesting little girl, only six or seven years old and she was so adult, down to the things she would wear, they looked like something my mother wore.

My mothers name was Joyce Colburn and she was the greatest woman to ever walk the earth, before she drowned. My Dad died when I was a baby, I don't even remember him. She always said I was like him. As for my name, well I think I'll keep that a secret for a while. One of many I have here.

I flopped on my bed and gazed up at the ceiling trying to clear my head. I didn't want to do this to her, but it was the safest way to make sure she'd stay with me. It was hard to imagine my life without her warm brown eyes and sassy remarks but that didn't even matter, she would hate me after she found out.

It doesn't matter

I sat up. I just needed a place to clear my head, a place that wasn't here.

. . .

The air was warmer as I walked down the road. Just another sign that it was getting closer and closer to graduation. I had so little time left. I was getting places with Wynn, but the others I wasn't sure about. I didn't even know their abilities.

I kicked a rock down the road. When I reached it farther down I kicked it again. I walked father and farther kicking the rock, I didn't worry about getting lost. After all this place was basically a prison and you can't get lost in a cage, no matter how beautiful it is.

"Ophelia?"

I cocked my head to the side, studying Wynn's best friend in front of me.

Ophelia was an odd character, she reminded me of Wynn, so very Clarenceville... But with some sort of depth, I couldn't tell to what length though.

She was standing in the road, looking lost. Her blonde hair piled into a messy bun on top of her hair, she wore leggings and a white blouse.

"Oh hello Adam." She said with an unreadable expression.

"What are you doing out here? It's like twelve o'clock at night."

"I was taking a walk." She shrugged, turning down the street to the left and apparently leaving me behind. I pursed my lips.

Well that was odd

I realized it was getting a bit too late and turned back around to head home. The warm air that had greeted me earlier was gone, greeted with a chilly night air. I walked at a brisk pace. I was about a block away when I heard something coming from the street beside me. Curious I walked down the street and stopped at a dumpster where I thought the noise came from. I glanced around the corner and jumped just a little.

There looking right at me was one of the robots they used to replace the people here. They always reminded me of that story my mom used to tell me to scare me, I think it was called Franklin. It was about this monster a man created made out of different machine parts he found at the junk yard. Franklin turned out to be crazy and started terrorizing the people of the village. I don't remember how it ended but the image I created in my mind of Franklin always haunted me.

These Franklins were obviously much sleeker than the image in my mind but the idea was still there. They were both something terrible.

The Franklin smiled at me, it's teeth were metal and sculpted to look like ours but I didn't doubt it could cut through steel like it was butter.

"Your time will come Noah Colburn." It's voice didn't sound like normal Franklin's, it was a combination between a middle aged man and metal scraping metal.

It seemed like a warning, not a threat. The Franklin flashed it's metal eyes at me and for a second they glowed red.

What else could I go? I got out of there.

I ran all the way home.

A/N: Sooo that was Adam's POV... Did any of you guess the plot twist that is Adam?

I worked really hard on this chapter so if you could vote, comment or share that would be great! Sorry it took so long but school's on now and I've been really sick. Hopefully I can post one sooner now!

Thanks for reading!
