"Quick! Wake up!" someone rapped at our door.

I woke up with a start and fell head first out of bed. Behind me, Connie and Julie grunted in reply to the bump of the fall. I swear those two could sleep right through a combination of hurricanes and earthquakes.

"Help!" more knocking, urgent this time.

"Guy?" Connie mumbled. The door crashed open and Guy toppled in still in his sleep pants looking like he'd seen a ghost.

"Real cute Germaine, thanks for the wake up call. Now get back to bed. It's barely 6!" Julie taunted from under her sheets.

"She's gone girls, she's gone," and he collapsed.

"Who's gone?" I asked quizzically as Connie tried to hold him up with Julie's help.

"It's Penny, she had another attack. Adam found her in her room but it was too late. She's gone."

"Oh God.." I followed as Julie dashed out of the room, down the hall and into Penny's room. Adam was crouching beside the double bunk bed with a blank look in his eyes. I followed his gaze onto the bed and sucked in a gasp. Gone from her sea blue eyes was the sparkle that used to shine against the blazing sunlight. Her face so pale.. her lips wide apart holding an audible scream that was so loud it crushed the silence around her.

Julie bent down and wrapped her arms around Adam tightly as he sobbed. "I should've checked on her last night. But I didn't.. she's gone.. how am I going to tell Mom and Dad?" his eyes trailed her face frantically as if it held the answers he needed.

"I don't know Adam.. I don't know.." she shook her head. He let out an anguish cry and pushed passed the other Ducks out of the room.

"Adam! Where are you going?" Charlie yelled and took off after him. I stared at Penny's still figure. She looked so cold, like ice. I shivered and turned away. It was one night we would never forget for the rest of our lives.
