Chapter 1

"Tammy" Ms Sear calls. Tammy turns around and heads back to her.

"Yes, Ms Sear." The girl answers her 10th grade English teacher.

"I need you to stay after school. You need to redo your report neater then this." She says as she holds a paper up for Tammy to see.

"Oh come on, can't I do it tomorrow in class? I will stay after class miss lunch or do it at home?"

"No, I need you to be here at 3:00 sharp or I will give you an incomplete. Do you want that?" the teacher asks.

"Ok, I will be here after 7th period, but I have to call my parents because we were going out after school." The girl whines. After her last class the girl makes a bee line for the pay phone hoping that she could catch her parents before they left to pick up her younger brothers and sisters. When she doesn't get them she hopes that they will come into building to get her. She walks to the office and leaves a message for her parent to go without her.

Tammy sits copying her report over for the teacher when a man in a police uniform steps in the room. "Excuse me; is Tammy Anderau in this class?"

"Yes she is over there by the computers." Ms Sear tells him. He walks to the back of the room staring down on the girl.

"I need you to come with me young lady. It's your family there has been an accident." The officer says.

Tammy feels his presence as he comes towards her. She hides her secret that her parents only know. "Why do I need to come with you sir, is there something wrong?" She asks the officer as she stands knowing that he just said her family was in accident. What he didn't know was there was no way there they were hurt she would know, right? So she gets her books together. As they walk out the front doors Tammy senses that the man is not what he says he is.

"Sir what is going on? You said something about my family." She says as his car comes into sight. It is a black Buick Skylark; she is getting worried because this is a personal car not a police car. She knows that she is in trouble when he grabs her arm and wrenches back until it pops. He opens the door to try to push her in the car. Tammy keeps her wits and says the secret passage that was drilled into her head as a child. (Protect the innocent and defeat the evil by these words I will be free) As she says these words he falls to the ground and she runs for her life. Looking back she doesn't see him anymore. Tammy slows down and turns back towards the school. She decides to pass the school and go home, hoping to run into her parents on the way.

Tammy walks by a crowd of people looking at the lake by her house. She cranes her neck to see but all she sees are the water and a tow truck backing up to the ramp going to the lake. For some reason not known to her she couldn't walk away, she watched the divers dive down into the lake coming up only when they have found what they are looking for. She is frozen to the spot were she stood on by pure fear; something in her gut said this has to do with her. This feeling is never wrong. She waits as the tow truck pulls a car from the water, she first thinks she is seeing things but then it hits her.

"NO, NO, NO" she yells as she runs to the edge of the lake. "Help them please someone help. This is my family please help" an officer grabs Tammy and tries to turn her from the sight of her whole family in the minivan. She falls to the ground vowing to find out what happen here today if it is the last thing she does.
