тАЬI saw true-shapes, Cris. And Mr. Teleomara knew my name. My
momтАЩs name, I mean. My real one.тАЭ

тАЬZoroan.тАЭ Cris looks scared. тАЬYour mom has to have been one of the
First Born. That means heтАЩs after you, too. YouтАЩre her firstborn, right?тАЭ

тАЬYeah, but...тАЭ

тАЬOkay, this is a cool club.тАЭ JeremyтАЩs words are pill yellow. тАЬBut I donтАЩt
speak the language. IтАЩm going home to play with my Xbox.тАЭ And he starts
for the wall.

тАЬWait a minute,тАЭ I say, because I really want him to stay. But all of a
sudden those stupid vines start really wrapping around my ankles.

тАЬGo hide!тАЭ Cris looks over his shoulder at the castle. тАЬMy uncle is
coming. IтАЩm not supposed to have any visitors.тАЭ

JeremyтАЩs already on top of the wall and I scramble up after him. I
donтАЩt know why his uncle is so paranoid about visitors. Cris says itтАЩs
because his uncle thinks this Zoroan is prowling around. I catch up with
Jeremy at the top and grab his leg as he starts to climb over. тАЬLie down
flat,тАЭ I whisper. тАЬCrisтАЩs uncle is coming and weтАЩre not supposed to be here.тАЭ

тАЬOh, thanks.тАЭ Jeremy is really pissed now. тАЬGet me arrested for
trespassing, why donтАЩt you?тАЭ

тАЬJust shut up.тАЭ And I shove him and he sprawls flat on top of the wall
under the apple branch that hangs over it and IтАЩm on top of him and thereтАЩs
no time to do anything else because all of a sudden, I see this silver sparkly
shimmer at the other end of the garden and all the vines just kind of curl
aside, like Sunday school pictures of Moses parting the Red Sea, you
know?
 Oh, shit.

тАЬLetтАЩs just climb down and get out of here,тАЭ Jeremy grumbles.

тАЬShut up.тАЭ I whisper it this time and pinch him. Hard. The silver stuff
flows along that parted-Red-Sea path and coils around CrisтАЩs wheelchair
like Mr. Beasley might. If he was really big. And I donтАЩt think Cris even sees
it, heтАЩs just kind of looking at the door at the end of the vineтАЩs path. And I
donтАЩt know if I should yell or go back or what. I start to sit up but the apple
limb gets caught in my shirt or something and I canтАЩt get loose.

The door opens.

тАЬThatтАЩs Mr. Teleomara,тАЭ Jeremy hisses. тАЬWhatтАЩs he doing here?тАЭ

And I look at Cris, and itтАЩs like he got turned to stone in his chair. He
just sits there, doesnтАЩt move, doesnтАЩt say anything. Mr. Teleomara walks
