Teamwork

All this week I've noticed that there have been posters on the school campus stating that some doctors will be coming in to do blood test on us. Its not optional. Every student has to do it. I was a little skeptical at first but then it didn't bother me anymore. But the only thing that's got me worried is Tony. He's been acting a little funny lately, and I don't mean that literally. He avoids the subject of doctors and blood and the whole blood test thing itself! He looks pale when he walks by a poster and when our teachers gave us instructions on where to go, when to go and how to behave during the test, Tony looked like he was gonna hurl! I didn't like the idea of strangers taking my blood either. I figured to talk to him to make sure he was okay. I walked up to the guys who were talking about some perverted stuff. :\
   "That's what she said!" Mike laughed and the boys joined in looking like they were going to die of glee
   "Classic." Tony said wiping a tear away
   "Hey guys." I smiled
   "Whats up?" asked Philip
   "Nothing much," I answered "just needed to talk to Tony for a sec."
Tony smiled and Mike and Philip went "Oooooooooo!"
   "Sure," Tony said walking with me away from the guys. We were far but I still heard Mike call out saying "Get it!"
We walked over to the big lawn out back and sat on the grass.
   "Whats up?" he asked
   "How you doing?" I asked nervously
   "Uh, fine...and you?"
   "Content."
Tony smiled.
   "You've been acting weird lately..." I began
Tony looked at me confused. "What do you mean?"
   "Every since we were told we were going to be having a blood test you've been acting weird."
Tony rubbed the back of his neck. "Uh...its just....nothing."
   "Come on, you can tell me."
   "Its not a big deal."
   "It is if it bothers you this much."
   "Don't worry about it."
   "So I can open up to you, but you cant open up to me?"
Tony paused looking irritated, but I was still right and he knew it.
   "It's just...." he sighed "I'm afraid of needles..."
I tried not to smile. "What?"
   "You heard me."
I giggled.
   "It's not funny!" he complained
  "Okay! Okay! I'm sorry!" I cried "I just figured the amazing Tony wasn't afraid of anything."
  "When did I ever say that?"
-two weeks ago-
crowd: TO-NY! TO-NY!
Tony: *about to ride skateboard on rim of roof*
Jamie: Isn't that dangerous!? :O
Tony: The amazing Tony isn't afraid of anything! XD *jumps off*
-present-
   "Oh..yeah."
I laughed. "It will be okay. You won't even feel it."
   "That's what she said." he said smirking and I nudged him in the shoulder and he nudged me back.
Later that day I heard the doctors had arrived and were ready to start taking kids in. It would take, possibly all day and even longer since there are so many kids at the school. The gang and I were hanging out in the garden when Tyler and Grace came running up to us.
   "Guys! Guys!" Tyler said in panic
   "What?" asked Philip
   "Grace and I saw the doctors enter the school!"
   "So?" said Tony
   "But they aren't really doctors! Their scientist from the lab that work in my dad's company! I know them personally!"
   "What!?" Jasmine asked
   "Yeah! Its true! I recognize them to!" said Grace
   "So, what do we do?" I asked
Everyone was quiet for a moment. Then Philip said: "We need to find out what they are up to."
   "Naw duh!" mocked Audree "The problem is, how."
Philip pondered. "Do you guys know where the blood testing is sopost to take place?"
   "The nurse...?" said Tony
Philip smirked,"Yes but where?"
   "Room B93" I said remembering what the posters said
   "We need someone to go find a way to spy on them and figure out what they want."
We all started walking into the school. Not many ideas were coming to mind and Tony gasped saying.
   "When I went there for a physical I remembered looking up and seeing a vent. What if we take it old school and someone crawls through the vents and someone else can cause a distraction to get the doctors away and then the other person comes out the vent and goes through their computers and files or something....."
   "Why did you need a physical?" asked Mike
-two weeks ago-
 Tony: The amazing Tony isn't afraid of anything! XD *jumps off*
 Crowd: TO-NY! TO-NY!
 Tony: Whoo hooo! >:D *falls off rim and lands on the ground on his back* X(
We all stared at him for a moment and then  Philip said "That's actually not a bad idea. But why would someone have to go through the vet when they could go in through the front when the doctors are gone?"
   "Because then someone would know that someone went in the room in the first place." smirked Tony
Philip was about to comment but then smiled.
   "I should go," said Tyler "I'm the best at computers."
   "But what if the vents aren't big enough for you?" I asked "The smallest and quickest should go."
We all looked at Grace. She was a little taller the Audree who was the shortest but, Grace was much more petite. She weighed less. She was the better option. Grace noticed we were all looking at her.
   "But I'm not good with computers!" she cried "I wouldn't know where to look or what to do."
   "I would need to walk you through it."agreed Tyler
   "But how?" asked Grace
Tyler smirked and pulled out a box from his backpack and in the box were four walkie talkies. They were half the size of the palm of someones hand.
   "How convienet." Audree said crossing her arms
Tyler smiled "I always carry these things around. I actually carry a bunch of random stuff around." He fished in his book bag again and pulled out rope.
   "Really?" questioned Jasmine
Tyler shrugged. Mike smiled. "You got any Monster in there?"
Tyler pulled one out and tossed it to Mike who caught and and smiled even wider. "Nice."
   "So are we really going to do this?" asked Jasmine
Tyler looked at Grace who nodded and then looked at Philip. "Yeah."
   "Finally! An adventure."
So basically Tyler, Mike, Philip, Jasmine, and I were going to hide near the vent behind the kitchen in the cafeteria. It as empty at the time we went so we knew we would be safe. We were going to help guide Grace through the vents with a map Tyler printed out for us that he got online of the buildings vents when they were constructing the place. One Grace got inside the room Tyler would take over and tell her what to do. Tony and Audree would lead the doctors away from the room long enough for Grace to go in and the info. Then with the rope Tyler contributed, Grace would climb back into the vent in the ceiling and we would be set!
   So Jasmine, Mike, Tyler and I opened the vent while Grace crawled through. A rope was tied around her waist and Jasmine helped the rope go along and Philip read the map and guided Grace through.
   "Okay now make a left." He said through the walkie talkie.
Once she was looking down on the vent that showed the nurse room all she had to do was wait for Tony to give the clear through the walkie talkie. After a moment we all heard through the walkie talkie "All clear."
I couldn't hear any sounds effects of Grace moving cause she had the walkie talkie off but then her voice call from it saying. "Okay I'm in."
Philip and Tyler furiously switched places. Tyler spoke, telling Grace what to do. Basically she had to download some stuff onto a thumb drive Tyler gave her. While that was going on Mike was standing out side the door with a walkie talkie making sure no one would come in. He had to press the call button once if we needed to be more quiet and cautious. If he pressed it twice in a row that meant that someone was coming and we needed to hide. But that wasn't likely to happen.
We sat in silence for a moment and listened as Tyler gave Grace directions. It sounded like it was going good so far. Then we heard a beep coming from Tyler's walkie talkie. It meant that we needed to more quiet. We all looked at each other nervously. Then Tyler's walkie talkie beeped twice! We all immediately searched for somewhere to hide. Tyler's walkie talkie was beeping repeatedly now! I had glanced at the door and saw two shadows. One must have been Mike trying to stall for us while the other shadow tried to get past Mike and into the kitchen.
   "In the pantry!" Jasmine hissed
Since there was no where else to hide we all scurried into it. Before I ran inside I turned back to the vent. "Wait! The rope is sticking out!"
Philip who acted faster than I did ran over and pushed the rope inside the vent and closed it and screwed in the screws. He did it within a matter of seconds and next thing I knew he slipped back in the pantry and we closed the door, only to hear the door open and Mike's voice.
   "And furthermore, ma'am, I think you should make the food a lot more healthy! Uh, yesterday morning, my bagel sandwich had way too much bacon! Did you know that pigs aren't actually-"
   "That's nice young man." said another voice, it was an older women's voice who I'm guessing was one of the cooks for our school "Now, if you don't mind. I just need to find my keys."
   "I'll help!" announced Mike
We heard a bit of scuffling and then "Oh! I've got them." said the lunch lady
   "That's great ma'am." Mike sounded nervous
   "Alright, lets go. The cafeteria is closed at this time."
   "Yes ma'am."
We heard the door shut and after a moment of waiting Tyler turned his walkie talkie on again.
   "Hello? Are you there?" Mike voice said coming from the walkie talkie
   "Yeah," Tyler answered
   "We are all clear."
We all sighed and high fived each other. We exited the pantry and went over to the vent and Philip unscrewed it. He put his hands in searching for the rope. His expression became grim and his hands went frantic searching for the rope.
   "What? What?" asked Jasmine nervously
   "The rope! Its gone!"
   "What!?" cried Tyler and he got on his knees and put his head in the vent. "He's right! It's gone!"
   "Grace must have been ready to come up and she yanked the rope to hard."
   "Hey, guys." said Mike's voice from the walkie talkie "Are you getting Grace out the vent yet?"
   "No," Tyler said back "The rope is gone."
   "We have a major problem! Over!" called Tony's voice
   "Yeah," continued Tyler "The rope is gone."
   "No even worse! Grace is gone!"
   "Grace come in Grace!" Tyler voice sounded panicked "Hello? Grace?"
After a moment of silence. "She's not answering."
   "Hey Tony," called Mike
   "Yeah?"
   "Is Audree with you?"
   "Nah, man. She went through a vent when I told Grace that the doctors were coming back and she couldn't go through the front because there are a lot of teachers around. She could get in trouble if she's caught being a room without a teachers permission."
   "So you let her go through a vent?!" Mike practically yelled
   "It happened really fast and I was trying to catch up to the doctors so I could stall them longer so Grace could get out of there!"
   "Do you think Audree made it to Grace in time and pulled her up?" asked Tyler
   "Its possible," answered Philip "But then why would they not answer the walkie talkie saying that they are okay?"
   "What?" called Tony "Bro I can't hear you."
Philip repeated what he said through the walkie talkie.
   "We need to go look for them." said Mike
We all agreed and started to split up and look for them all around the school. Finally we found them in the garden sitting at our usual spot. We all ran to them and hugged them telling how worried we all were. I noticed when Tyler hugged Grace her whole face turned pink.
Once we were all sitting around my computer and Grace plugged in the thumb drive we all saw the reports the doctors had in here. Apparently the reason they were sent here was because they had a program on their computer that would be able to tell if someones blood matched ours. Since we each had, had blood taken from us at a regular Doctor they were able to take that information. Now they were going to take everyone at the school's blood and be able to pick us out of the crowd, and take us.

Here We Go Again

We decided to stay a little longer to test out Grace's and Tyler's truth with the whole "on your side now" thing. We keep our distance, we never talk unless it's "Hey, do you have a pencil I can borrow?" or "Your zipper is open." So, we really haven't gotten to know them very well. All except Mike. He skipped a couple classes on Monday but then he came right back to normal, and maybe even better! 0.O He's been hanging around Grace alot again. They walk to class, they eat lunch, they share pencils, what is going on!? :O They can't be dating again. Mike would never go back out with Grace again....well at least I thought he wouldn't. I don't even get a chance to get into their conversations to see what they are talking about. They don't act lovey dovey like they did when they were dating. They look like strick friends, but still. Maybe, it's that weird phase that couples go through when they break up. Once they get over the drama of breaking up, they go right back to being best friends. Whatever it is, it does not lessen Audree's anger issues. She's already mad that Grace is back but, now she's hanging out with Mike! It makes it a billion times worse! I try my best not to test her patience, knowing what she's going through. But Jasmine seems completely blind to these things. -__-'
-at lunch-
 Audree: Hey pass me the ketchup. :-|
 Jasmine: Hold on...*squeezing out every last drop* X-\
 Audree: That's enough! You're gonna use it all up! Other people need it too, you know! >:-\
 Jasmine: It's not enough for me! I need more! Now hold on! >:|
 Audree: There is no more! You're using it all! Now give me the ketchup! >:[
 Jasmine: If there is no more, then why do you still want it!? >:[
 Audree: Just give it to me already! D:<
 Jasmine: Hold on! D:<
 Audree: Come on! Lunch is gonna be over soon! D:<
 Jasmine: Here! O:<
 Adree: Finally! *tries to get ketchup out but bottle is empty* -__o COME ON! *flips table over*
Okay, so she didn't flip the table over but she looked like she was going to. I don't talk to Tyler at all but I notice how he seems a bit upset that Grace is hanging out with Mike so much. Ugh, must every little thing contain drama? I do now recall seeing Audree and Tyler bump into each other outside once and they shared a little conversation. But maybe it wasn't important. Maybe it was
 Tyler: Whoops, sorry. :-o
 Audree: Ugh, watch where you're going. >:\
 Tyler: Okay.... :|
 Audree: Good.... >:\
 Tyler: I'm going to class. :|
 Audree: That's what I was gonna do. -_-
 Tyler: Bye. :|
 Audree: Bye. >:|
Or it could have been a serious conversation :-0
 Tyler: Did you receive my message?
 Audree: I did, how do you want me to execute the mission?
 Tyler: Without being identified.
 Audree: Yes, sir.
 Tyler: See you at O nine hundred.
 Audree: Roger that.
Or maybe I'm just over reacting :| But then later that day I saw them talking again in the library. We all must have the same free period and chose to go to the library. At least, that's why I was there, Jasmine was with me. So, of course Jasmine wanted to eavesdrop.
   "Put the books up like this so they wont notice." said Jasmine as she and I stood behind a one way bookshelf.
We peeked through the cracks of the books and listened to their conversation. Luckily they weren't too far.
   "I still don't trust you." Audree narrowed her eyes on Tyler as she shoved a book in his hands
   "That doesn't mean we still can't be partners on this project." Tyler said holding on to the fifth book in his arms.
He held them like a tower and wobbled back and forth to keep them balanced.
   "It's not like we chose to be partners. We were forced by the teacher."
Tyler sighed as Audree placed another book on his book tower in his arms.
   "Shouldn't we read these before we get more books?"
Audree sighed and led the way to a round table where they both sat and each opened one book. Jasmine and I had to change position in order to see and hear properly.
   "Ugh. I hate Rome very much right now." said Audree not even reading the book
   "I find it very interesting. They were a very organized in their Democritus. In fact-"
   "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Save that stuff for the paper."
Tyler looked back at the book.
   "This is lame." whispered Jasmine "I thought they were doing something cool."
I looked at her like reading is cool! But she just looked at me like your a nerd.
   "Uh. hey." Audree said to Tyler who looked up from his book "I forgot something in another class. I'll be right back." she got up from her seat, took her book bag and left
   "Ooo! She lied!" giggled Jasmine
   "How do you know?" I asked
   "What's my name?"
   "Jasmine,"
   "Exactly."
After that was lunch and we sat at our usual table. Except Mike wasn't with us. He was sitting at another table with Grace. Tyler had skipped lunch to do whatever nerds do.
 Jasmine: *seeing what I typed* Wouldn't you know what that is? :-o
 Jamie: I'm not a nerd! >:[
Anyway, Tony left to dump hid tray. Our conversation went on as normal but then Tony came back into his seat like a maniac. I felt the wind hit me when he zoomed into his seat.
   "You guys! You guys are never going to believe this!" he panted
   "What?" Jasmine said
   "I was went over to throw my tray away and I pass by Mike and Grace's table and I heard Mike say 'I've kinda liked you for a while' to Grace!"
   "WHAT?" we all said at the same time
   "That's it." Audree got up and we all reached over and sat her back down
   "Hold on She-Hulk." Philip said to her "Tony are you sure?"
   "Whats a She-Hulk?" he asked
Philip looked at him like he was stupid. "She-Hulk....the cousin of Hulk."
   "The Hulk has a cousin?" I asked "When did this happen?"
   "What do you mean, 'when did this happen'?" Philip said he put his hands to his head "What is wrong with you people!?"
   "Okay! On to the more important stuff." said Tony redirecting our attention again
   "You really heard Mike say that he liked Grace to her." asked Audree with the saddest expression I've ever seen her put
   "Positive." confirmed Tony
Audree slumped back into her seat and we all fell into a silence. After a moment Audree seemed to have smoke coming from her ears and she got up from her seat, took her stuff and stormed out of the cafeteria. We all looked at each other nervously. Finally I thought it be best to go after her, to make sure she was okay.
   "I'm gonna go check on her." I said getting up
   "You sure that's safe?" asked Tony
I shrugged, and Jasmine got up. "I'll go too."
We left in search for Audree. We asked some kids if they saw her and they said she went to the quad area and that she had asked for Tyler before and that's who she was going to see. Jasmine and I exchanged nervous glances. We both know Audree to do stupid stuff when she's angry, but why would she want to talk to Tyler. She didn't like him at all. So we hurried there and we rounded the corner and saw Audree walking up to Tyler who was sleeping on one of the benches which was a little strange. Audree didn't seem to care one way or another, she pushed him and he fell immediately waking up. He was startled but he recovered in time to see Audree sit on the bench next to him. Jasmine and I went the other way in order to come into a corner behind them.
   "Uh, did you finish your part of the project?" Tyler asked scratching his head
   "I didn't come here to talk about the project." Audree said coldly "But no, I didn't."
Tyler gave a sour expression. "So....then..."
Audree took a shaky breath "Mike told Grace that he still liked her."
Tyler's eyes widened "Are they getting back together?"
   "I'm not sure...but they have been spending a lot of time together lately."
Tyler looked upset "Yeah, I know." there was a pause "Why are you telling me this? I know you don't want my comforting, or my advice."
Audree smirked "I know, I came for something else."
Tyler looked nervous "Then what?"
   "I want you to help me get Mike jealous."
Jasmine giggled and I stepped on her foot.
Tyler looked horrified "I can't do that!"
   "Sure you can! Just pretend to be my boyfriend and soon it will settle this whole thing will settle it's self."
   "You can't solve the problem by creating a lie."
Audree's eyes narrowed. "Fine, then what?"
   "Let's not jump to conclusions. I'm sure there is a reasonable explanation. Don't worry we'll figure it out. Until then wanna keep working on our project?"
Audree scowled and got up and walked away.
   "Guess not..." Tyler mumbled
Audree acted unaffected by the situation afterwards. When Mike came up to her she acted like he hasn't even been hanging with her ex-best friend. I'm worried. I prefer when Audree shows she's upset or plotting something. But when she doesn't give you a clue....it makes a girl wonder.

We meet again

So it's been about two, three weeks and we are still in school in London. (thank God) It's been good....up until yesterday. See, yesterday around the middle of the day people were talking about new students. So like a good little girl I asked someone who were the new kids and she said it was a boy and a girl. I was a bit curious about them since I haven't seen them at all, all day. So I ask around and the girl's name is Felicia and the boy is Xavier. I forgot the last names but who cares. Apparently the guys say Felicia is "hot" and Xavier is a "nerd"and "pushover". According to the girls Felicia is a "obvious dying hair freak" with no personality, and Xavier is "cute" and "smart". Well that just sorts everything out. So I just got out of my last class with Jasmine and we were heading to the garden to meet the others to hang out ('cause that's what the cool teens do)
   "Ugh, I hate him. He always holds us back longer than he's supposed to!" complained Jasmine who was talking about our last teacher
   "I know. I thought I was going to die." I agreed
   "Who gives homework on the weekends anyway?!"
   "Are you going to do it?"
   "Pfff, no."
   "Jasmine!"
   "Sssh! Don't let anyone hear you!"
   "No one's around."
We heard noises from the garden. It sounded like shouting and someone yelped out in pain.
   "What the-"
I stopped Jasmine before she could finish the sentence and ran. I dragged her with me until we reached the garden. There in the middle was Philip, Audree, Mike and Tony fighting with....some red head girl and her friend....some blond kid....*gasp* It was Felicia and Xavier!...No...no. Audree grabbed Felicia's hair pulling her back and I saw her face all too clearly.....it was Grace....Grace! Ex-girlfriend of Mike and ex-friend of Audree, the traitor of us all!
Jasmine and I ran to them.
   "Stop!" I shouted
Philip was trying to separate Audree from Grace, Tony, Mike and Xavier were fist fighting. It was so bad I already saw blood coming down from Xavier's nose as he lied on the ground trying to push Mike off him while Tony seemed to be trying to choke him!
   "Stop!" I shouted trying to pull Mike off of Xavier. "Let him go Mike!"
He said something but I couldn't make it out over Grace's screaming. Jasmine and Philip were now holding Audree away from Grace. She layed on the floor looking at Audree with horror.
   "Mike stop!" I yelled pulling hard
   "Okay Mike he's had enough." said Tony whose cheek was bruised and had now let go of his share of Xavier
Mike was choking down hard on Xavier. Xavier's face was red...purple!
   "Noooo!" Grace screamed
Mike's face trickled with sweat but he didn't stop. Everyone was soon around trying to get Mike off him but Mike is the biggest and the strongest.
   "Mike its okay!" Audree said panting holding his arm "Let go."
Grace fell to her knees and pounded on Mike's back crying.
   "Mike stop it! Stop it! Stop it! MIKE!"
Mike's eyes widened and he looked like he just woke up from a day dream. He released his grip on Xavier's neck. Xavier took a deep breath in and then pasted out. Grace wept over him as Mike moved away. He looked at Xavier one last time realizing what he had done...then looked at Grace who looked up at him with eyes as red as her newly dyed hair. Then she turned away and tried to wake up Xavier whose color was returning to normal, slowly.
   "Tyler," she whispered "Tyler please get up."
Mike turned and ran before anyone could stop him, except Audree.
   "Mike! Wait!" but he kept running
Audree turned back to Grace who was still on the ground with Xavier...or Tyler. I'm guessing Xavier was his false name...kinda nerdy. Anyway Audree looked down at Grace with eyes full of tears.
   "Why did you come back?"
Grace looked up at her and wiped a tear away from one eye. "I told you." she said "We came to help you."
   "What?" I asked surprised, apparently I missed a lot "What are you talking about?"
   "We don't need your help." Jasmine crossed her arms
Grace looked down at Xav-Tyler I mean. "I'll tell you if you help me get him to the nurse."
We looked at her like *beep* no! More tears came down her face.
   "Please! Just help me and I'll tell you everything you want to know! I'm not going to turn you in! There after me to!"
   "What?" said Tony
   "Like I said. I'll tell you everything."
We looked at each other. We weren't going to trust her. In fact we were going to ditch this school tonight without her knowing to get away from her. But we weren't going to leave that boy there with no one to help him.
   "We need to take him to the dorm." said Philip checking his vitals "He's completely fine. He just needs to recooperate on his own, but we need to have water ready for him when he wakes."
We carried him to his dorm and layed him on the bed.
   "Why can't we take him to the nurse?" asked Grace standing over Tyler wiping the rest of her tears.
   "They'll ask too many questions." Philip answered "To much attention for us."
Audree stood at the door, arms crossed and ready to go at any moment. I knew she was worried about Mike. Everyone was.
   "Just stay with him until he wakes and make sure he drinks a lot of water and that he rests."
 said Philip turning to leave
   "Wait!" Grace called to him "You guys can trust me now. I'm on your side!"
We stood there unsure of what to say or think. Audree opened the door.
   "We will never trust you." and then she left rushing out. We all followed somberly.
When we got to the dorm Audree stormed in and started packing clothes.
   "Wait! Where do you think you're going?" asked Philip
She turned to him and rolled her eyes "I thought we agreed that we were leaving. Tonight."
   "There's no rush." said Philip sitting on the bed
   "Whoa, I'm with her." said Tony "We need to leave now, otherwise Grace is gonna come in here with machine guns with all her buddies."
   "I want to find out what she's up to exactly. She wouldn't have come back just because."
   "Obviously she came back to trick us, which didn't work and now she's gonna call for back up! We need to leave now." said Audree with hand motions and everything
Philip sighed. "She's not going to call for back up."
    "How do you know?" Jasmine asked
Philip sighed like it was obvious "She just went through an emotional break down. And I think she might be telling the truth."
   "Key word: Might." mocked Audree
"We will leave tomorrow night. So that I can fill out paper work in the office quietly that way we don't end up on T.V. as missing kids. Then everyone will be on the look for us."
We stood there. He was right. But nobody wanted to admit it first.
   "I'm okay with it." Jasmine said "Jamie?"
I could not believe she put me in the spot like that. My decision would determine everything. If I agreed Tony would agree too. (lets face it, the boy would do anything I say, did you see how quickly he stopped fighting when I came on the scene against it?) And if he agreed then Mike would do it anyway just to leave sooner. And Audree would have wait with us. I sighed and answered.
   "Lets go with Philip's plan."
Tony crossed his arms and nodded, "Yeah, that's what I was gonna say."
We looked at him like "shut up". Audree stormed out of the room. We all tried to relax knowing she would be back with Mike. As it got later the boys left to their dorm. Jasmine and I sat around worrying about Mike and Audree. Finally Jasmine fell asleep and I was left waiting. Then when I was about to give up and go to sleep Audree slipped inside and melted inside the room, closing the door behind her. I got up and sat next to her. We said nothing for a while then she spoke.
   "I couldn't find Mike, anywhere."
   "I know he's okay." I comforted "He just needs some time alone."
   "He could have killed that boy you know." she said burring her face in her knees
   "I know. That's why I had to stop him."
A moment passed.
   "I know I must be horrible for saying this, but...." Audree thought "I'm glad he let out his anger."
I looked at her skeptically.
   "I know!" she said in defeat "But, he just went back to being emotionless and depressed and...not himself. I hate seeing him like that."
   "He just just his parents." I explained "And I'm sure he's still traumatized about Gr-" Audree looked at me before I finished and I stopped.
She understood. We sat there. Sat there dreading for what might come tomorrow.

Ello' Govner!

*takes a deep breath in and out* Okay, it was difficult getting past security on the airport. Tony got us new fake I.D's and we were able to get a flight....to....ready for this?......London! :D So maybe we aren't to happy these days. We lost our guardians/parents, and I still have no idea where my mom is. :\ I miss her a lot. So when we got to London Philip suggested we go back into hiding with our I.D's and change our looks So....that's what we did. *cries* I got bangs! D': I never liked bangs! I had to cut my hair to my shoulders and get bangs. :\ well it's not as crazy as Jasmine. *shaking my head* Lord have mercy. I tried to take her out of it at the salon but it's impossible to change Jasmine's mind.
 Jamie: Jasmine why not do this hair style. It's pretty! :)
 Jasmine: Oooo! I want neon colors! XD
 Jamie: No, just get it cut short and with side bangs. :\
 Jasmine: I already have side bangs! >:\
 Jamie: Uh, get them to the left this time.....? :}
So Jasmine got her hair cut to her chin and all shaggy, and choppy like then she dyed some streaks if her hair neon colors! Red, Pink, Dark Blue, Green, and Purple. I'll admit she looks completely different. No one will recognize her now. *rolls eyes* Audree got long, weave and had it straightened. So her hair looks fuller and longer. Mike (with hardly any hair) now wears hats and big nerd shaped glasses. Philip got his hair trimmed and got blond streaks done in the front. And....Tony....he....*sniffles* he.....*cries* he cut his hair off! D: I mean hes not bald. He has to normal nice short cut of a guy but....his long, chin length locks are gone. *falls on knees* All gone.....But he does look like a completely different person. So we know these changes will keep us hidden for some time.
Of course it took us some time to get use to our new names. Mine's Crystal. I can't say last names for safety reasons....although I told you a lot anyway. Jasmine's is Natasha, Audree is now Bonnie, Mike is Alex, Philip is Ryan, and Tony is Zane. Our first day at school that we got into (which is a academy with dorms, uniforms and everything) we messed up big time.
-in class-
 Philip: Psst! Jasmine!
 Jasmine: *ignoring*
 Philip: Jasmine!
 Jasmine: *sighs*
 Philip: Jasmine!
 Jasmine: It's Natasha!
 Philip: Can I use your eraser?......Natasha?
-in the hallway-
 Tony: Do you who looks hot?
 School kid: Who?
 Tony: Jamie
 School kid: Who??
 Tony: Her. *points at Jamie*
 School kid: I thought her name was Crystal...
 Tony: Uh, It is! O.o
 School kid: But you said-
 Tony: Look food! *runs away*
-in class-
 Teacher: *calling roll* Crystal?
 Jamie: *tapping pencil*
 Teacher: Crystal?
 Jamie: *looking around*
 Teacher: No Crystal?
 Jamie: *day dreaming*
 Teacher: Going once...going twice....
 Jamie: *mumbles* who ever Crystal is needs to hurry and raise her hand, gosh.
 Jasmine: *whisperers* Jamie that's you!
 Jamie: O.O Oh! Here!
The second day we made it obvious we had issues.
-in class-
 Teacher: Crystal?
 Jamie: That's me! Crystal! Heh heh, no one else but me ma'am.
-outside-
 Tony: Hello, Crystal, having a nice day?
 Jamie: Why yes Zane. I am.
-in hallway-
 Mike: Bonnie, do you want to hang out later?
 Audree: I would love to, Alex.
-in the cafeteria-
 Jamie: Give me my gummies, Natasha. >:[
 Jasmine: Give me my pudding, Crystal. >:[
 Jamie: I don't have your pudding, Natasha >:[
 Tony: *eating pudding*
 Jasmine: I left it right next to you and now its gone!.....Crystal.
 Jamie: I still don't have it....Natasha.
 Jasmine: Your lieing!...Crystal!
 Tony: *finishes pudding*.............where did I get this? :o
So you see everything is going smoothly now. We keep to ourselves mostly so we don't get known to much. Hope this school last longer than the last.

Found Once More

After doing a ton of research we finally have had a lead on where Rose was. Apparently she was working as a maid for this really rich business guy. I was excited at first thinking we would stay at a mansion but that whole thing changed. So we got in contact with her and she agreed to meet us at a dock. It was really nice, there were a lot of yachts and boats in the water. Rose had said he would be inside a yacht called the S.S. Gomez (the name of her boss) Of course its the biggest thing in the water. It might as well have been a cruise ship! But I wasn't complaining. Tony seemed a little nervous as we aboard. I was expecting Rose to immediately greet us with hugs and kisses (especially for Tony) but instead she came out of no where and grabbed Mike in a head lock holding a pistil. O.O
   "Freeze or I shoot!" she yelled holding Mike tight
Rose was about 5 feet with long black hair and a light tan skin. She was pretty and....omg...she was Mexican! I thought Tony was full on Italian...When was he half Mexican? (not that theres anything wrong with that. Mexican food is yummy)  :-o It's just...he looks nothing like his mom!...Well maybe the black hair but that's it! After my second of being an over dramatic person I realized she still had the gun in Mike's face.
   "Rose, it's us!" shouted Jeremy "Jeremy, Linda, Cerk, Nancy and the kids."
Rose looked stunned for a moment and then dropped Mike and ran to hug the adults.
   "Rose I feel more sucer when I'm not hugging someone holding a gun." said Nancy
   "Right." Rose smiled and put it in her pocket. "I ust had to make sure it was really you guys."
   "Understandable," said Cerk smiling
Then Rose met Tony's eyes and and she ran to hug him, squeezing him tight.
   "Are you alright? Did you get sick or injured on your way here?" she asked
Tony laughed "Mom, I'm fine." he squeezed her back
After we "kids" were introduced we went downstairs (inside the boat XD) and Rose had a couple of small tables set up with sandwiches, chips and drinks all set up. We were all eating and catching up when Rose licked her thumb and rubbed it on Tony's cheek.
   "Mom!" Tony cried trying to move away
   "I'm sorry! But you have some mustard on your cheek." Rose continued to rub away "You need to make sure to use a napkin right after to take a bite so I won't have to do this."
Tony turned a whole new shade of red.
   "And you need a hair cut." she continued "When was the last time you got one? Just because you haven't been living a normal life, doesn't mean you can look like a wild person."
   "I like it like this." Tony complained
   "And you also liked to walk around your room naked but I put a stop to that real quick."
We tried not to laugh. Rose got up from the table to get more napkins and when she was out of sight:
   "Dang," chuckled Mike "not even my mom embarrassed me that much"
   "Micheal, shut up and eat your food." said Linda
   "Yes, Mama" Mike went right back to eating his sandwich
   "Mama's boy" whispered Audree teasingly and everyone laughed
After we ate we started talking about what to do next and if Rose had any info on my mom.
   "I haven't spoken to Sierra in years. She didn't give me any information on her where abouts."
   "You mean.." I started "You have no idea where she is?" I couldn't believe it.
After everything we went through. Everyone got the chance to reunite with their parents (except Audree :(  I felt as if I swallowed a giant jawbreaker. Jasmine and I looked at each other and we had a silent understatement. We probably would never find her again.

I excused myself from the meeting and went to the deck to cool off. I had my computer in its bag around my shoulder. Jasmine's right. I do carry it around like a baby. I stared at the ocean thinking about what terrible things that could have happened to Mom. I could feel the tears coming to the corner of my eyes when I saw Jasmine from the corner of my eye next to me, staring out to the sea as well.
   "Hey," she said at last
   "Hey," I responded
   "We should run." she said with a wild look in her eye
   "What?" I asked looking at her
   "Just you and me." she went on "We could take off and find Mom ourselves....No one would stop us."
I smiled and rolled my eyes "What an idea."
Jasmine laughed, "We hardly talk anymore."
I looked at her skeptically "What's there to talk about other than business?"
Jasmine looked shocked "Theres plenty to talk about! We're not boring adults with no lives. We're hot teenage girls on the run from this weird company who is after our blood."
   "Anything to talk about other than that?" I asked wincing
Jasmine chuckled "There's always booooyyyyyss."
   "Oh no..."
   "Oh yes, you have yet to tell any details of you and Tony."
   "There is no details. I already told you all there was."
   "I still can't believe you love him!" she cheered
   "Sssh! Keep your voice down! And I do not love him."
Jasmine giggled "I know your hiding more from me."
I sighed and Jasmine nudged me.
   "I guess it just would feel weird talking to you about it cause..." I started "Did you guys date?"
Jasmine snorted. "No! I'm gonna lie at first I wanted to but he wasn't interested in me that way."
   "Oh...." It was silent so I said what I thought would be appropriate "I'm sorry..."
Jasmine snorted again. "It's okay. I got over it quick. Especially when I started helping him win you over."
   "What?!" I turned to her and she raised her hands in defense
   "Hey, but it's working!"
I grabbed her in a some what attack, somewhat hug thing.
   "I'll get you for that."
   "I'm sure you will." she smirked and I tickled attacked her
She squealed and tried to escape my grasp but my tickling powers were too much for her. I thought I would win this battle until she finally escaped and ran on the other side of the deck. I chased after her. Then she suddenly stopped and I saw why as I screeched to a halt behind her. They found us. They stood there. Holding guns. There were twenty of them. The one in front of  them cracked his neck and looked directly at Jasmine.
   "Hello, ready for round two?"
Of course we turned and bolted for the door leading below. Screaming our heads off, if I might add. When we got to the bottom I started yelling words.
   "They're here! They found us! Run! Save yourself!" while Jasmine kept screaming at the top of her lungs
When we got to the room where everyone was eating they let us through and closed and locked the door just in time before the men could enter. Jasmine had ran in so fast she stubbed her toe on the door before entering. She limped and was in a lot of pain.
   "Is there another way out?" Jeremy asked Rose
   "Theres a window that might be big enough to crawl out of."
Rose quickly turned to a window in the next room. It looked outside. A quarter of the window was under water. It would be cool if it was for enjoyment but for escaping...not going to be easy. If they window is broken the water will start to come in and flood the room. Another problem, the window was barely big enough for us to fit in that and the water coming in will be pushing who ever is going out, in.
Everyone started trowing things at the window trying to break it while Mike,  Jeremy, Linda, Cerk and Nancy held the door shut. Finally it broke and water started coming in fast. Jasmine went first since she had a stubbed toe. We lifted her up and pushed her into the window. She squeezed through and swam to the side of the boat where she will help the next person get through. Audree went next, then me. It was cool how the water hit your face pushing you back in, but once you were pushed all the way in you had to swim has hard as you can to get the the other side. I peeked in and called:
   "Next!"
Philip hugged his parents for a second then went through. In that hug I knew something. The adults weren't going to come through.
   "It takes all of us just to keep the door shut so they can't get through." explained Jeremy to Mike when he told him
   "I can't leave you guys." Mike said
   "You have to baby." Linda said with watery eyes
The water was up to their knees.
   "GO!" Jeremy yelled and Mike pushed himself through followed by Tony who said a goodbye to his mom
   "We'll hold the door while you escape!" Jeremy said "GO! R-"
We swam. We swam hard. We made it to the beach and trudged ourselves across the sand. People looked at us like we were crazy. Maybe we were. But all I knew is that even though we were soaking wet, even though we left behind people who sacrificed their lives for us, even though we were tired, and once again alone...we had to run. We stole a truck and took off. (I was surprized to see my computer was still working perfectly) Driving to who knows where now. We were on an island. We knew the only way to get completely free of this was to fly out by plane. So that's where we are. Driving to the air port. With no plan, no money, and no adult...yet

Some Vaca Spot

First off, thank you Jasmine for sharing your knowledge in the last post....without my permission. >:\ Anyway, we made it to Hawaii about five days ago. We were able to get a beach house! *wink* Imagine that. Turns out Mike's parents are even richer than Philip's! :D......*ahem* not that luggery matters. Since yesterday we stayed inside and unpacked and discussed where Tony's mom might be, today we decided to go outside and hang out at the beach! Of course Linda had to buy us bathing suits first, but once we ran into the waves together it felt like old times together. Just six teens hanging out without a care in the world. Dealing with normal teen problems.
 Audree: Does this bathing suit make my butt look big? :-o
Instead of kids-on-the-run problems.
 Philip: That guy looked at us suspiciously! He knows! :0
Sure there were moments where it was bad.
 Tony: Uh...Jamie...you have something stuck to your butt. 0.O
But overall it was a great day!
   "I feel sick..." Audree said as we sat on the sand drying off
   "How come?" I asked "You looked completely fine when you and Mike were
'wreastling'." I smiled
Audree rolled her eyes. "He ate my sandwich!"
   "That's what they all say."
Audree sighed. "I just feel like I have millions of pounds of worries."
I massaged my shoulders. "Believe me, I feel the same way."
Audree sighed again.
   "But, you know," I began "that's why we came out here. To relax and have some fun before we have to worry again."
Audree smiled and then made a disgusted face. "Ugh, is this what adults feel? Worried about their family and how they need to protect and look out for them because they are too innocent to look at the world in a cruel way?"
My eyes widened. "I sure hope not."
We both gave a dry laugh. I was trying to think of something fun to suggest while we sat there to cheer Audree up but, I looked over and saw Tony and Mike running up with a volley ball and smiling like crazy. Oh no....
   "Check it!" Tony smiled holding the ball like it was a gold nugget
   "Those college girls just asked us to play volley ball with them!" Mike cheered nodding at these really athletic looking girls surrounding a volley ball net on the other side of the beach.
   "We need more people on our team." Tony explained "You in?"
   "I don't know..." I said unsure
Then one of the college girls came running up. She had dark bouncy hair up to her shoulders and I was in love with her golden color skin and hazel eyes.
   "You boys coming or what?" she said charming us with her brilliant smile, she also winked at Mike and despite his dark skin color he was blushing
   "I'm in!" Audree said getting up with a smug look on her face
   "You sure kid?" the girl said raising an eyebrow
She snatched the ball from Tony. "I just hope you can keep up." she turned and took off running to the volley ball net where the other girls greeted her
   "Come on Jamie." Tony urged
I wiggled my toes nervously. I knew how to play volley ball, I just...didn't play too great.
   "Hey Tony!" called a blonde girl from the volley ball net
Tony looked over to her.
   "Flip your hair for us!" she called
Tony did so flipping his straight locks and then brushing them back out of his face. All the girls screamed and cheered and I'm pretty sure I heard a "He's so hot!" coming from the direction. >:\
   "Okay, I do it." I said getting up and brushing myself off.
   "You don't have to if you don't want to." he said
   "Tony, the girl said she'll do it." the bronze goddess said putting on her shades
   "Yeah," I agreed "I'll do it."
   "Don't worry." she said "I'll tell my team to take it easy on you."
That was probably a lie 'cause next thing I knew one of the girls spiked a ball in my face!
   "Janet!" the bronze goddess said (whose name I found out later was Carmen) "Take it easy." she told her teammate but I saw them giggle to each other and shared a silent high five. Now I was ticked.
   "You okay?" Tony asked beside me
   "I'm fine." I lied. My cheeks burned like crazy
On my team was Audree (who doesn't look happy), Tony (I don't like how these girls stick their butts in his face, I don't care if its part of the game) Jasmine (who is talking about beating up these girls up after words, which won't happen) Stacy (frisky redhead), Mallory (tomboy), Dylan (who on earth would name their daughter Dylan??!!) and Jordan (the girl who will not stop telling Tony to flip his hair! Its wavy and delicious, we get it!) On the opposite team was Mike (poor Mike had to be surrounded by gorgeous models) Carmen (the bouncy hair bronze goddess) Janet (the Asian girl who takes these games too seriously) Coco (who is so pale I have no idea why they call her that) Maddy (who will not stop saying all the things I do wrong when I hit the ball) Zo (whose Hispanic accent is so deep I just tuned her out) Piper (who doesn't seem to mind that her top in coming off) and Copper (what is up with some peoples names these days?) Philip stood on the side lines and kept track of points.
The game was eventually tied and we each needed one point to win. My plan was to lay low and let everyone do the work. (which was my plan from the start) But then the ball was coming straight in my direction and my teammates were calling for me to hit it. I bent down and shot up hitting the ball in the perfect spot. It flew back up into the air and everyone wavered tyring to figure out where it would land. Then is landing on top of the net. The very tip! It stood there for a moment and everyone panicked for a moment. Then is slowly fell on the other teams side. Maddy immediately hit the ball and it flew back onto our side. I thought Dylan had it as it went over my head but then...she didn't. It bounced on the ground once....twice..and we had failed. The other team cheered and huddled sharing their sweat and stinky pits with each other. Meanwhile our team started arguing on whose fault it was.
When we got home and showered and ate Philip showed us all of the seashells he had collected while Mike and Tony shared stories of how they got those girls numbers. At first Audree and I were upset by this but then we saw them throw the numbers out. Its not like they can call them anyway. :)

Hey! Jasmine here! ;D

Heeeeeeey people! Jasmine here! Although, you must already know that since it's in the tittle. Oh how I have missed you all! By the way about what Jamie said in the last post "It was hard to focus on the conversation." LIES! She wasn't even trying to pay attention to the conversation. I had to fill her in on everything that went down. She was too busy staring at Tony and giggling and smirking....mmm, mmm, mmm, ;) They are so obvious. An-T-way, the real reason I stole Jamie's computer and hid in the bathroom was because I needed to tell you all what I saw the night before Jamie posted about her night with Tony. I was going to post sooner but, it was hard to get my hands on the computer with Jamie carrying it around like her child. She put it down this once to watch T.V. with Tony. *winks* Any way, so about what I saw/heard that one night.
So, here are the deets: Everyone was in the computer room when I was really tired so I went to the bedroom and went on the top bed and took a little nap. I don't know how long I was out but I woke right up when I heard the door close. I shifted so my face could see below me. They hadn't heard me. It was Audree and Mike. Mike sat on the bed across from the one below me. Audree stood over him.
   "What did you want to talk about?" Mike asked in a tone saying he didn't even care.
   "This," replied Audree "you haven't been acting the same since..." she stopped herself then began again "since we left home."
   "What does it matter?"
   "Mike, I'm worried about you, I just-"
   "Look, Audree," Mike cutted "I don't need any ones pitty party right now. Okay? I just need you to get off my back." he rose from the bed and was about to leave when Audree's face hardened and she turned around and grabbed him by his shirt collar and pushed him back on the bed. Ooo! Feisty ;)
Mike looked so scared for a second. I guess he thought she was going to beat him up.
   "No," Audree said in a tense voice "you're going to sit there and talk to me."
   "What's there to talk about?"
   "You!" her voice cracked (I didn't know girls voices cracked) "You haven't been yourself and I just want to help you get over the fact that your girlfriend betrayed us."
Mike stood up, towering over Audree. "She didn't just betray us. She betrayed my trust, my respect, my dignity, my lack of judgment, and my love...."
They both stared at each other for a moment until Mike broke the gaze and sat on the bed.
   "I don't know if I can ever trust anyone like that anymore and I'm not."
Audree looked hurt at that line. "You can trust me." she sat on the bed next to him "We've been best friends ever since we met at Ms.'s house..."
   "Ms...." Mike murmured "It was because of Grace that she's dead!"
   "Look!" Audree said sternly "I hate Grace as much as you do. Maybe even more. She betrayed me and my family long before she even met you."
   "So you're saying I need to get over it and forgive her?"
   "What? No. I never did. I can't. She's the reason my parents are dead as well as my guardian Ms."
   "So then how do I cope?"
   "You just have to take it...one step at a time I guess."
   "Like you?"
   "Naw, I didn't take one step at a time. I completely shut my whole emotions down. I pretended not to care about anything. That way I don't get hurt anymore."
   "But, you haven;t acted like that in a long time."
   "That's because when I met you...you changed everything. You made me smile, you made me laugh. You made me get angry. You...." she paused and looked up at him
She started moving up to him. Getting closer and closer until :D......Mike turned away. Audree looked completely hurt and Mike looked unsure of himself.
   "I'm sorry," he whispered "I'm...just not ready." he got up and turned to leave when Audree looked like she remembered something and said:
   "Hey, I'm always here when you need me...as a friend." she smiled
Mike turned and smiled awkwardly "I know." and he walked out the door, closing it behind him.
Audree grabbed a pillow and pushed it on her face and stated kicking and yelling things I shouldn't be typing. Then after a moment she curled herself up in a ball and fell asleep.
Well, I'm surprised they didn't hear or see me the whole time! :D Ha! I'm so ninja! Anyway, I have to return the computer where I found it in case Jamie goes looking for it so-
   "JASMINE!" >:[
Whoops! Gotta go! *blows kisses and disappears*
