Still having fun writing, so I hope you're having fun reading.
In this chapter we get a few answers, more questions, and probably a lot more trouble to come.
Next week will be another solo chapter week. If I can get my act together...well, I won't make any promises.

Edit: I've raised the age appropriate rating from 13 to 17. The story does have a few curse words, not many, and some violence. I don't think a mature teen would have a problem with any of it - but it's your choice to make.
