Chapter 11 – Orientating

The only things that were consistently true over and again were a) the adults were lying to him, and b) the adults didn't trust him enough to tell him what they knew, which was more or less the same as lying. He thought, hard, about running away. He had money stashed in a little box under his mother's bed. He knew that he had nearly a thousand dollars saved up, now that Trent was out of the picture.

He wasn't sticking around this place because he was scared; he'd faced down scary and busted its nose, twice, and then faced down something even scarier and won. He wasn't even afraid (not completely) of running across smoking craters where big US cities used to be. And he definitely was not at all afraid of coming across Actives.

What stopped him were the notes he hadn't gotten from Charlotte. There were two that he knew of. Okay, one and a half if he wanted to get technical about it, and even though the evidence suggested she wasn't in danger, he wanted to help her however he could.

There were also a hundred or so Active people in this little gem of a town who could probably track him down, or keep him from leaving. He wasn't concerned with them. His father was Stone and his grandfather was some sort of superhero mafia don. They wouldn't mess with Michael Washington Junior.

Right, another part of him argued, just like they didn't mess with you at the assembly.

The second part was that life got back to normal really quick. His mother seemed to be normal enough, serving him up chopped apple bites and cereal for breakfast, packing his lunch, and reminding him to lock the garage door like she always did. Before he left, though, she reminded him that he needed to be back home directly after school.

“Yes mother,” he said, in what he hoped was his most respectful disrespectful tone he could manage.

The anger came though, and when it arrived, it came on strong. Just who did they think they were, keeping things from him? Did they think he was some sort of little baby? Maybe they did. They thought he couldn't handle the truth about his father, they thought the same thing about his grandfather. As if he wouldn't think it was really cool to have a dad flying all over the world stopping bad guys.

Unless he wasn't stopping bad guys.

Whatever, he thought. It didn't matter much who his dad was fighting, since they were just lying and lying and lying. First about his dad, then Grandpa from the moment he was born, but lord knew what else they were keeping from him.

Christmas came and went. It was probably the worst one ever, since he learned that his father was searching through tunnels in the former Peoples' Democratic Republic of Korea for separatists. So he wasn't home, and he didn't get much for Christmas anyway, since his mother was still really mad at him.
