Hello everyone! I'm back from the dead! And I'm posting something that is Psych! A miracle! I was in a Psych mood today. So recently I got a review on my old story Almost Final Moments about a continuity error. Yeah, I'm sorry about all those... I went back and read the first 3 chapters of that story and just cringed. It's terrible! So terrible I am so sorry to everyone who read that. I was 9th grade when I wrote that and I can say that I've improved my writing. (Take a look at my Supernatural fan fiction if you'd like. Those are the newest.) So I'm rewriting Almost Final Moments! It's still going to be pretty much the same story line. I'm changing some details, though, and fixing all the continuity errors (again so sorry for those). So yeah! If you haven't read the first version, then that's totally okay! You'll be going through the crazy roller coaster that is this story! Thanks for reading and I'd love reviews maybe? Haha

Gus had finally finished his route and was ready to go home. He was exhausted. He headed to his car and was about to get in when two men started to approach him.
They immediately set off alarms in Gus' head, but he had to be nice to them, "Hello," he addressed them, "May I help you?"
They didn't respond. They kept advancing towards him. Gus started to panic. These men were pretty shady and were freaking him out. He started to reach for his phone but couldn't get to it in time. The men grabbed his arms and covered his mouth so he couldn't yell for help. They shoved him in the back of their car and sped off down the road.

Meanwhile, Shawn had just arrived at the Psych Office.
"Hey, Gus, I was just thinking," he started as he entered, but found no Gus. "Gus? You here, buddy?"
Shawn had expected Gus to be there. His friend was always there before him. Shawn took out his phone and tried to call Gus. He got voicemail. He tried again, but all he got was, "You've reached the phone of Burton Guster..." he ended the call.
"That's weird," Shawn said to himself, "Gus always answers after two rings. Well, maybe that was my dad."
Shawn sat down at his desk and put his feet up. He'd have to wait.
Five minutes later Shawn was tired of waiting. He called Jules this time. She answered right away, "Shawn?"
"Hey, Jules, have you by any chance seen Gus? Has he been to the station?" he asked her.
"No," she replied, "he hasn't been here. Why?"
"He wasn't in the office this morning. I was just wondering if he had been there." he told her.
"Okay, well, I'll keep an eye out and tell you if I see him."
As Shawn ended the call, an something occurred to him. Gus was probably still at work, and it had been a while since he had paid him a visit.
Shawn got off his motorcycle outside of Central Coast Pharmaceuticals and walked inside. He went up to the first person he saw.
"Excuse me, is Gus still here?" he asked.
"I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with that name." the woman Shawn had asked replied.
"Oh yeah, I mean Burton Guster. Have you seen him?"
"Yes, Mr. Guster left an hour ago. He finished his route for the day." she informed.
"Okay, thanks." he said and walked back outside to look around the parking lot. He spotted the blueberry and walked over to it. Gus wasn't inside.
Shawn called Jules, "Jules, I think we might have a mucho grande problemo."
"Why? What's going on?" she asked, concern in her voice.
"It's Gus. I found his car. He's not inside. The lady I asked said he left an hour ago. Jules! I'm freaking out. Gus is missing and he probably didn't even have lunch!"
"Calm down, Shawn. What lady?"
"A lady who works at Central Coast Pharmaceuticals with Gus." he answered.
"Is that where you are now?"
"Yeah."
"I'll be right there."
"Shawn?" Juliet got out of her car and started walking around the parking lot of Central Coast.
"I'm over here." Shawn called to her.
"What are you doing?" she asked when she got to him.
"Looking for Gus. I was checking to see if he was under any of these cars." he said.
"Why would he be under the cars?"
Shawn shrugged, "I was just checking. He's not answering his phone, Jules. He almost always answers his phone."
Jules looked in Shawn's eyes, it was faint, but she could see the fear there. She took his hands, "Take a deep breath," he did, "Where did you see him last?"
"Early this morning. I snuck into his apartment to get something of mine. He was still sleeping."
"We'll find him." Jules assured and walked over to the blueberry. She looked inside and then tried to open the door. It was locked. "Shawn, you have the key?""
"Yeah, here." he tossed her the key he had stolen from Gus' desk drawer.
Jules unlocked the car and started to get in and look for any evidence leading to where Gus could be. She was halfway inside the car when she found something, "Shawn."
"What? Did you find something?" he started to walk closer to where she was.
"No, stop." she commanded and he did.
"Jules, what?"
Juliet moved her head to get out of the car and when she did, she started to run in the other direction, "Run!"
They started running away from the scene. Shawn looked behind him just in time to see the blueberry burst into flames.

So there you have it, chapter 1 of the revamped version of Almost Final Moments. Also, I don't know why I named it that. It doesn't really make any sense... Stay tuned, I'm uploading the next chapter next!
