"Yeah. We probably should have cherished them more," Asher said, the wide smile he had now shrinking. They had taken those old times for granted, and now they could never get them back. Leo would have a harder time pranking, as he could not see anything, and Asher was simply too busy. Not to mention the absence of parents scolding them. It seemed annoying back then, but it sure was better being grounded by their parents rather than not having parents at all.

Leo nodded. "But at least they're in a better place now. I just hope one day we can catch the person who killed them." he said softly, turning his head and snuggling against his brother's shoulder. With little else to think about, Leo's mind went back to his feelings for his brother. He started to hope for the day when his brother could return his feelings but until that day came Leo would wait for him.

Once more, Asher thought about finding some way to help Leo control his visions and maybe locate the their parents' murderer, but he had to shake that out again. How could he think of using his brother like that? The visions are even known to hurt Leo, and Asher didn't want that for his brother at all. "Do you suppose they are watching us right now? I bet they were trying to yell at me for almost getting us killed," he said, trying to get his mind to a different topic.

Leo shook his head. "No...I don't think they would do that. I think they would be very worried." he said softly, placing his hand on his brother's arm. "I'm sure they know that you're trying your best." he said softly. Leo felt a little itch on his arm. He scratched it but the skin was extremely tender, when he scratched it his arm stung a little. "O-ow!" he exclaimed, rolling up his sleeve to look at his arm, unable to see the scars on his skin that spelled out 'I know where you live'. It was almost like someone had written on him with a nail, but the scars looked like they had long been healed.

Asher's blood ran cold and he grabbed his brother's arm, reading what was there. Where did these come from...? "Leo, I think you should stay here for the night. Or maybe stay at Sasha's. Just don't go home," he said, rubbing over the scars as if they would go away. If their lives had been normal, he would have ignored the words, but from experience he was sure this stuff was serious. If someone was responsible for the words, and Asher could not do anything to protect his brother right now, then Leo might be in danger.

Leo winced a little at his brother rubbing his arm. "Ow, Ash that hurts." he said, snapping his hand back and gently running a finger over the bumps but they just felt like bumps. "I don't even know where these came from, or when I got them. I haven't been having any nightmares or visions lately. Do the scars look really irritated?" he asked, trying to figure out how he got these in the first place.

"They look like they've been there for a long time," Asher replied, still really worried about his brother. "They're not even natural... It's like someone wrote in them a long time ago." He debated over whether or not he should tell Leo what the words said. His brother did hate being kept in the dark about things. "Whoever wrote it says he knows where you live. I don't know how these scars happened, but I'm not sure if it's safe for you to go back home."

Leo was surprised to hear what the scars said, how could someone do this to him without him knowing it? Surely he would have felt it if someone scarred his body like this. "I can't stay here Ash, if I run away from danger like this I'll be scared of everything! We don't even know how long these scars have been here and the only people who have showed up at the apartment were the neighbors and some reporters." he said softly, pulling his sleeve down over the scars so his brother wouldn't see them anymore. "I think I'll be okay. Besides, if something were to happen here you wouldn't be able to do much anyways, if you strain your back too much it'll take longer for it to heal!"

"Reporters? Leo, even criminals watch the news," Asher said, his heart racing even more now. The heart monitor's hastened beeping seemed to emphasize that. "Stay with the neighbors, then. Just don't go home. I don't want to risk something happening and no one is there to stop it." Asher knew he couldn't protect his brother in the state he was in and he doubted Leo could protect himself if he couldn't see anything. The only chance he had was probably the neighbors.

Leo would have protested more but he couldn't argue with his brother for being worried about him. "Okay I'll stay with the neighbors." he said softly, keeping his arm to his chest rather protectively. "I just wish I knew why these sorts of things keep happening to me. I wish they would stop." he said softly. The Crazy Tomboy ((You can bring in the neighbors anytime you want))

Before Asher could say anything else, the door suddenly burst open, revealing the twins with panicked faces. "Leo! Whatever you do, do not go home! You're going to stay with us where we will protect you!" they declared at the same time, grabbing his hurt arm (though Asher didn't know how they knew that was the correct one) and staring at the mark. They muttered something and then let go quickly. "Don't ask why, just stay with us!" Sasha and Samuel entered the room soon after, with Sasha also checking Leo's arm. She tried to resist the urge to touch the scars, worried and put a hand to her mouth as if she had been gasping.

Leo jumped and let out a rather high pitched squeak when he heard the door swing open so suddenly and then to have his arm yanked by two different sets of hands. He breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed it was the twins but they sounded rather alarmed. "O-okay.....are you two alright? You guys seem more freaked out than me." he said softly, hoping they would let go of his arm soon.

Cherry didn't answer and took a pen from nearby to start drawing symbols around the scars. "No questions! Don't move!" she instructed, careful not to put pressure on the affected area. Chase held the arm tightly, wanting to make sure Leo didn't pull away and interrupt his sister's business. He muttered one or two syllables after each symbol was drawn.

Leo was starting to get scared about what was going on, he could feel something that had a dull point move around on his skin. "What are you guys doing??" he asked curiously, not enjoying the personal bubble invasion but surely the twins wouldn't be doing whatever it was they were doing without good reason, right?

"I said no questions!" Cherry snapped, continuing to write symbols. When she finished, she started poking the marks lightly. "Do they still hurt?" She then turned her attention to her twin. "Chase, your mind was blank when you chanted, right? You better! This wouldn't work if your mind wasn't blank!" Before Chase could reply, Asher felt the need to step in. "Wait a second! What's going on here?" "NO QUESTIONS! How many times do I have to say that?!"
