Chapter 1: Breaking and Entering

Her head spun like a top would on a wooden floor she peered at the now open door, then her soft blue eyes moved to the whiteboard plate that was right next to it. 'The Prescotts Rule this town' it stated in red writing, "This can only be Nathan's room" max though to nonother than herself.

Her heart skipped a beat as her eyes peered around the dark room, the blinds were drawn and a projector was running with some… well, interesting images. Max felt her chest pounding it was like when she was alone with him, butterflies and a mental rush she couldn't ever explain. Max fought the feeling and looked around for what she needed. "Now I need Nathan's phone or anything with clues". She turned to his computer and saw an email to the one and only Victoria "Ew" max thought aloud to herself. Then her hand moved to the mouse of the computer softly changing tabs and saw kate's video she was enraged so much that she wanted to kill Nathan in that moment. kate was like a sister to her and she would never let anything happen to her.

Max's head throbbed with an intense heat all of a sudden. Then her mind flashed and she saw Nathan lying in a hallway begging for mercy silently, as a male's foot kicked into his stomach. As suddenly as the thought came it was gone and Max couldn't help but smile… "is that wrong…No he's hurt everyone I care for… so it's not" she thought trying to comfort herself.

Her attention changed to marks that appeared to be from movement of the couch, that was placed hard against the wall. She moved the black piece of furniture and found just what she had come for "oh yes little phone you are mine now".

Max heard the door to the dorms open and Nathan yelling at Chloe Max panicked and quickly moved out of the room rewinding as she left. She walked straight into Chloe as she was about to speak to her 'partner in crime'. The dorm-room door swung open, missing Chloe by half an inch. "Oh you are such a nosy bitch aren't you Max?" Nathan gritted his teeth as he lunged forward at her when Warren quickly come into the picture and punched him straight in the mouth. It took Nathan by surprise and he fell onto the not so soft carpeted floor, Warren started to kick him square in the stomach. Max's eyes widen and she covered her mouth she'd seen this she knew it was going to happen. The thing she hated most about the whole thing was she loved it more than when it was just in her head, she covered her mouth to hide the smirk creeping up onto her doll-like lips.

After they all left Nathan got up and retreated to the safety of his room, he quickly realized his couch had been moved and his secret phone was gone he panicked. Quickly going to his computer and opening an email titling it urgent, Nathan knew he always had his email open just in case an event such as this were to happen. "We need to meet I have something important to ask you about class," he wrote quickly.

His computer binged and he opened the reply "Meet me in the Photo studio now, this better be good Nathan, I want to be able to eat my lunch every once in a while"

Max kept her feelings and vision to herself, throughout piecing together the clues, driving to this mystery location and even right in that moment as the two girls headed down the grey blinding stairwell.

The secure door was easy enough to hack into Max and Chloe were in faster than rabbits seem to reproduce. Max's heart thumped in her chest as she saw the bomb shelter like shelves that were stacked with expensive medical and photography products. It was horrifically beautiful, Chloe made some comment about it looking like a zombie-proof shelter. Max followed her through to the other side of the plastic that was hanging on the white tiled wall. As she entered the other side of the bunker-like room, it all becomes darker. The walls and roof had all turned black, apart from the other end of the room that was very white. Max's heart thumped faster in her chest it made her feel excited, she peered at the wall that had a BDSM model that was tied from her ankles up to her mouth, picture that was purely black and white on the wall all the pictures that were framed in this room carried a very similar vibe to them. It so much reminded her of Nathan's room, she knew he was the one behind it. But at the same time, it seemed to carry a more experienced vibe to it. A printer that looked well over the cost of max's everything sat right underneath it, then she saw a high tech computer seat on a desk that had a glass top with black wooden legs. Max turned and her heart stopped she saw the perfect studio layout lights and all right before her. Max's head throbbed again like it had earlier that day and she saw a figure holding a camera bent over at the computer as her view was from the shooting area. She comes back and then saw the third cabinet, she opened it while Chloe looked through the others. Max looked at the red binders that filled over half of the selves, Max picked out three, placing them on the desk that stood behind her "Chloe look at this…"

"Okay, so the Victoria one is empty, so that means she next, Kates is full of…" Chloe couldn't say it.

"and the last one is…" Chloe didn't finish her sentence as she saw the name. She opened it quickly "Max no that has to be staged What if Nathan had paid her to do she would have done something like that for money" the blue-haired girl quickly pleaded with herself. Max saw the next one which was Rachel being placed in the ground while pieces of metal were around her "Max that's the junkyard we have to go quick. Max's head throbbed but she fought it and quickly placed the folders away as Chloe rushed through the door and it closed max followed behind her when she went to open the door it won't open again. Max punched in the code again and it declined it Max's eyes widen and Chloe called out "Max hurry up!"

"The door won't open," Max yelled back through the heavy door.

"Give me the code Max"

"542 Chlo," Max heard a decline sound from the other side her heart raced "Max I...I.."

"Chloe go I can get out I'll just have to figure out what the code for this side is"

"Thanks, Max Call me when you get out I'll come get you straight away".

Max's head throbbed as she heard Chloe leave her heart pounded she once again felt woozy but fought it off until she saw black.
