The Second Life of Kara B. Escape Plan
The look of horror in Claudine's mother's eyes didn't seem to daunt her. Everybody in the room seemed frozen, surprised at the girl's boldness. Without flinching, Claudine repeated herself, "I said, do it." "Y-you're bluffing," Alex laughed. He tightened his grip on Claudine's mother and pressed the blade closer to her throat. "Have you ever really killed anyone, Alex Eldrian?" Claudine asked him coldly, "Because I have. I lived through wars, seen deaths like you've never seen them...and this? This is something I can live with." "Fine! I'll show you!" Alex shouted. He readied to slash the blade across Claudine's mother's neck, but before he could even move, something from the ceiling scooped him up and threw him in the air. The same metal claw that had taken Mary hostage earlier in Claudine's room was also in the living room. Alex's scythe clattered to the floor. Claudine ran to her mother and began to weep in her arms. "I'm so sorry, Mom," Claudine s

Kara was fascinated by the things in Claudine's room--all around there were some strange experiments and contraptions of sorts hanging by the walls or from the ceiling. There were also blueprints scattered on the floor, and one giant blueprint spread across a drawing board with little pins stuck to it. Kara spotted a dresser with a mirror covered in scribbles and notes. Instead of the usual vanity items, the dresser had markers and tissue on it. Claudine's bed could barely be spotted in the mess, but it was there in the middle of it all, the only well-kept thing in the entire place.The ten-year-old girl cleared her throat to call back her guests' attention."Have a seat," Claudine said, and then, as if remembering her manners, "Please."Kara looked around but there wasn't really anywhere to sit. She was surprised when the floorboards began to move from underneath them, and three stools emerged for them to sit on."It saves time," Claudine explained, "Now

Will immediately moved out of the way. The scythe hit the wall, getting stuck there momentarily. As the Cleaner attempted to pull it out, Will kicked him from the side, sending the Cleaner sprawling and skidding across rooftop."Kara, are you alright?" Will asked a still stunned Kara."Get out of here, you fool!" Mary shouted at him as she ran back to fight the Cleaner. He deftly dodged her attacks, but she managed to catch him off balance and push him against the railings. She put the sharp end of her blade against his neck."Go ahead, Rafael," the Cleaner spat, "You'll be doing me a favor.""Mary, stop!" Kara told her, breaking free from Will's concerned hold."What is going on...?" Will mumbled to himself, watching the whole scenario pan out."He's still our school mate.""Our school mate literally tried to kill us just now, Kara! Why can't we do the same to him?""Because. He might have valuable information."

It seemed to Kara that everything always had to happen at night, in the middle of it, in fact, and she barely got any sleep. Tonight, she and Mary were sneaking out to find the other person in the neighborhood who could reincarnate, a power that Kara discovered herself to have. The yellow lamplights on the deserted streets flickered every now and then, giving off an eerie vibe. Kara decided to diffuse some of her fear by asking Mary questions, which annoyed the latter."So if I can reincarnate all along, how come I only know about it now?" she asked, occasionally looking around the dark streets."It's different for everyone," Mary explained, walking boldly under the lamplights, "Sometimes you discover your powers only at a certain point in your cycle, but they've always been with you.""I wonder who I was before I was Kara Beltran, then...""Hopefully not as annoying as who you are now," Mary quipped.The light above them flickered shut, and there

They were running breathlessly in the night. The school hallways looked haunted in the dark, illumined only by emergency lights. Kara felt tired, but she also felt that if she stopped running, something bad was going to happen. Mary was in front of her, grabbing her hand harshly."Where are we going?" Kara asked. She was panting for air already. "Shut up!" Mary shouted back, and then she came to an abrupt stop. Kara ran into her, knocking her off balance. When the pair finally got back on their feet, Mary put her finger to her lips in a shushing position.They were standing at an intersection between the hallway and another stairwell leading to the second floor. Mary tiptoed a little past the rail of the stairwell and looked up into the darkness. Kara stayed behind, crouched behind Mary. Then she felt a light tap on her shoulder.She shakily turned her head, to face a deformed creature with no eyes and no nose, but which appeared to have been human once. Kara le

She was born to Noemi and Joseph Rey, a young couple who lived close to Noemi's mother, Roselle. Roselle was a retired high school teacher whose husband died some twenty years ago in a car accident. Kara was beloved to her maternal grandmother, who insisted on naming her after her best friend, who had also passed away.She was a miracle baby. She and her mother nearly died when she was born, and so her parents decided not to have another child. Her parents were careful not to expose her to anything that could potentially harm her. They kept her indoors, away from other children, and even home-schooled her for a few years. She enrolled in a traditional school in fifth grade, but she found no difficulty making friends. She had a bright smile, and an honest personality. Her awkwardness seemed overshadowed by her outside appearance, which had the fifth grade boys and upper years sprawling at her feet.This overabundance of affection made her vain. She began to disobey her

She remembered that she didn't mean to do it. Roselle was so happy that she and Lionel were finally on speaking terms again. Of course, Roselle didn't know about the--nevermind. But it was raining, and she and Lionel were on the way to Roselle's from the airport. There were road reparations, and the relentless pouring drowned out the view of the street ahead. People said the truck driver was drunk. He was counterflowing, after all, and at full speed, at that. Anyway, what mattered was the impact. It was an elf truck, but the speed made up for the size. They could barely scrape the bodies from the ruined vehicle. She remembered Lionel breathing heavily, looking helplessly at her as life seeped from his body. Maybe he said something along the lines of, "I don't want to die," or, "Sorry, Roselle," or maybe she just made it up. It really is difficiult to tell when you're on the verge of dying a terrible and embarrassing death. As for her, she closed her eyes and
