I don't own any of these characters from Higher Ground. I am just playing with them I promise to put them back when I am done.

The Pact

Flashback (Night before graduation)

All of the Cliffhangers are sitting around the campfire.

Juliet: I cant believe we are all graduating tomorrow!

Shelby: I know. It seems surreal. I don't know if I am ready to go back in to the real world.

Auggie: I know what you mean girl. I am afraid of what my brother will do to me when I go home. I know that I don't want to follow his crowd anymore. But it is going to be so hard.

Daisy: I am going to miss feeling safe.

Shelby: What do you mean?

Daisy: This is the only place that I have ever felt safe. And everything has changed so much when I was not at home. I mean by mom died and my dad has been through rehab twice so I don't really know what to expect.

Ezra: If it makes you feel better. I really don't want to go home either considering the last time my parents visited me was over a year ago and I ended up in the hospital.

David: Hey, I don't want to go home either. The last person I want to see is my dad but I know it is something that I have to do. I wish that I could hide out here forever but I know that I have to move on with my life.

Juliet: I am afraid.

Auggie: Why?

Juliet: Well, my mom is not exactly a picnic to be around and since I have been home my mom has gotten remarried to Hal and I don't even know the man.

Scott: Do you realize that this might be the last time we are all together?

David: Way to bring the mood down, Scott.

Scott: Come on David you know its true. Think about it outside of Horizon we have nothing in common. Do you honesty think if we all went to the same high school we would be friends? Our lives are too different.

Juliet: Scott I think you're an idiot for saying that because I honesty think we all would still be friends.

Auggie: Jules, get real if we were back in the same high school. Do you think that you miss head cheerleader would date me a gang member?

Juliet: You know I don't care about any of that stuff. But I see your point. I know in high school there would no way I would probably talk to any of you guys no offense but I would be afraid to because of social ramifications. But now I don't think I can imagine you guys outside of my life.

Shelby: It's going to be hard keeping in touch you know.

Ezra: Why?

David: We'll be all over the country. Auggie will be in New Mexico, I'll be in Connecticut, Jules will be in the South, Shel lives in Organ, Scott's from Los Angles, Daisy lives in the Midwest and Ezra you are from Seattle.

Daisy: Yeah, we will be all over the country and soon we will be thrown into a new life.

David: Yeah this whole new unknown life is going to be scary..

Daisy: I wish that we could move on but not forget the past. In the year and half that I have been here you guys have become part of me. I don't wanna forget you guys.

All: Me either.

Scott: I have an idea. In ten years we will all come back to Horizon on the anniversary of graduation for a reunion.

Ezra: How will that help?

Scott: This way in the back of our heads we will know that we will all see each other no matter what.

Auggie: Yeah, Meat I like that it sounds good.

Scott: So is everyone in?

All: Yeah.

David: So no matter where we are in 10 years everybody is to meet back here on June 2nd.
