Hey, this is my first fanfic so I hope you R&R and constructive criticism is welcomed! I do not own the Sisters Grimm Series, all rights go to Michael Buckley! –May.

So maybe I didn't have the full story. I didn't exactly know why I had to load my suitcases with my belongings along with my family's and I didn't exactly know why my parents were taking us back to FerryPort landing on such short notice—scratch that, I didn't know why they were taking us there at all.

I know, I know; this is absolutely not like me—I'm one of those people who stick their nose in to other people's business when they think something is suspicious—but something in my parents face told me not to argue and get in to the red family convertible. My mom looked close to tears for a minute and the only other time I've seen her like that was just before the Everafter war.

Something is defiantly up.

I am now squished in the left side of the convertible with my carry-on and Daphne's carry-on on top of my lap. Basil was in the middle of Daphne and I, sitting in his booster seat, busy watching a television program on the mini T.V with his headphones on his ears. Daphne has about 5 books on her lap and one shoved in her face. She was usually reading constantly.

My face was squished against the windows and I stared at everything we passed. I could feel the tension in the car—mostly coming from my parents and I—and it was the kind of tension you couldn't cut with a butter knife.

My mind played back the events of the morning.

It was a Saturday in the middle of September so of course I slept in. I could now sleep without a glob of stink forming in my hair, or a spider climbing up my leg so I took complete advantage of sleeping in.

When I woke up at 10:46 I went through my normal morning routine: shower, brush my teeth, change my clothes, and then go downstairs for breakfast. I heard someone talking on the phone quietly and quickly so of course the Queen of Sneaks part of me kicked in.

I leaned on the wall, slowly inching closer and my ears were straining to listen to the conversation. When I thought I had a good volume to my side of the conversation I listened with concentration. The one side conversation sounded a bit like this:

"Yes, yes, I understand the problem," My mom's voice said impatiently. To say I was shocked it was her would be an understatement. There was a short pause then it seemed as if my mom had cut in.

"I know the circumstances," There was a longer pause this time, as if the person on the other side of the conversation was giving my mom a lecture.

"Shut up, Jake. I know." Wait, Jake? Uncle Jake? What was my mom taking to Uncle Jake about?

"Of course I'll tell them some thing's; just not everything. I know we can't have them know everything. Like you said before, they'd want to help but I won't let them get hurt," mom explained. Then there was another pause, this one considerably shorter.

"You better make sure he acts his best. He'd have to go to school. Relda'd make him go." Then she listened one more time before saying,

"Fine, I'll tell him. We'll leave today, if it suits you. See you." She hung up the phone and I tiptoed back to my room. I was lucky Daphne and I didn't share a room anymore, she would never stop interrogating me if we did. I didn't fully understand the conversation at the time anyway.

After I went back to eat breakfast, mom told us we had to pack up. We were leaving to someplace without the given chance to argue.

I zoned back in to reality when my mom tried to start conversation, she did awful. Kicking butt, that she could do. Making nice from a totally awkward time, not so much.

"Daphne, honey, could you take your nose out of that book and take Basils headphones off? Sabrina, peel your face off that window."

When all she asked was done, she continued, picking her words carefully.

"You guys are going to have to switch schools for the year." She said. As I digested this news I felt like I knocked my head into something hard.

"It's just for the year. You father and I have to go do some errands with your Uncle Jake around the world. I arranged it with your uncle this morning," She said hurriedly, not giving us time to give our input. A sickening thought came to mind:

"If Uncle Jake's going with you…then is Puck staying with…us?" I didn't know why I asked. I should've just kept the question to myself and bore with it when he came to the door.

"Yes," Mom replied in her no-nonsense tone, the uneasiness flying out the window.

I struggled to contain my emotions while Daphne squealed in glee. "We haven't seen him since we left Ferryport landing! That was like, three years ago! Sabrina, you're fifteen—"

"Already known," I mutter.

"And Basil's five now and I'm twelve he's going to say I've grown so much!" She finished with a face splitting smile.

"So does that mean you're OK with this?" Veronica asked tentatively.

Daphne frowned, "only if I get to share a room with Red."

"Deal," Veronica said. I scowled and glared daggers into the side of Daphne's head.

"I'm not agreeing to anything." I said stubbornly.

"How about you, Basil?" Mom asked, completely ignoring me. Basil nodded enthusiastically.

"He's five!" I cried in protest. "His vote doesn't even really count!"

"We live in a democracy." My mom said calmly. "And you Henry, what do you think?"

"I'm going to have to vote yes." Dad said.

"DAD!" I protested.

"Well, I'm all for the yes category too. So I guess that settles it. We're moving to Ferryport landing!" Veronica said. I gave her the evil eye for a few seconds then sighed in defeat. I knew there was no point in fighting. My mom had that look on her face, the look that clearly said 'I'm not budging'.

I slumped back into my seat and glanced out the window. The expression time flies when you're having fun should be changed to time flies when you're super mad because we were already at Ferryport landing and about a block away from where Granny's household should be already.

An hour had already passed, a discussion finished and the car had just parked into the driveway of Granny Relda's new house.
