Rain

I considered Jared's offer, but I couldn't go against my father's wishes. My dad had decided to go but insisted I stay here with the others. Cali, Allison, Marty and I were in charge of making sure Daila and Kim stayed conscious. Not to mention keep little Kindra safe.

Marty was pacing the room angrily, "What am I, chopped liver? I know I could be more helpful than Ray and Rachel combined!"

"Perhaps he has a bigger job for you in the future. You know, I am just as valuable, but I have to take care of my baby." Cali reasoned.

"Whatever happens, we have to stick together. If we never see Jared or the others again we have to continue his work." I suddenly became their leader. The feeling was a little exhilarating. "First things first, if you need any of us to take your baby just let us know, we're family now." I smiled warmly at Cali, she was like the sister I never had. "Allison, you will be in charge of looking after Kim. Let me know if anything changes. Marty same goes for you, keep an eye on Daila." his countenance softened.

"Of course." he said humbly.

"I going to look over Jared's notes and see if I can make any sense of them, you guys may be able to help later. Cali, do you mind being the lookout? I'll keep an eye on the baby just tell me everything I need to know about her."

I could feel the power of leadership surging through my veins, it felt good. Really good. The others seemed to have calmed down substantially.
