Disclaimer: I only own Cole, nothing/no one else.
I appreciate all of the reviews I got from NEWCOMER. Here is the start of the sequel, if it is not to your liking then let me know. Thanks to flamingteen for A LOT of help.
It all started with those 3 words. 'Steve's coming home' that terrified me. I was in shock. So I spent the rest of my freedom of my summer break in my room. I didn't cry, feel bad, or anything. I was just in shock. I didn't realize the reality of it until I heard it"

BAM!!
"COLE! I'm home!" Steve screamed one day, after work. He had been home for a couple of weeks now. It was nearing the end of the summer break and I was to go back to Horizon in a couple weeks. It was a good thought. However, it was about to change. Steve busted into Cole's room, staggering. He had a beer can in his hand and he took another sip. In his other hand he had a 6 pack of beers with 4 missing.
"Cummere, boy. I'm gunna getcha if yu dunt" He slurred all of his words. Cole scooted to the end of his bed and slid off. He, fast as lightning, slipped under his bed. It wasn't enough. Steve grabbed Cole from under the bed and hit him once in the stomach.
Cole slipped from his grasps and grabbed his jacket and shot out the door. Steve tried to go after him but he stumbled and then passed out on the floor.
*Horizon*
Peter sat in his office looking at paperwork when he took a break and wondered how all of the kids were holding up at home. He was also wandering how Kat was doing at collage. Everyone went home, but Katie, Juliette and Ezra came back a little early. Peter wandered a little more about Cole because he was weaker than most of the others, so it wouldn't be hard to get into his old ways. He was interrupted by the lovely sound of his wife's voice. "Hey there mountain man" she said, "Oh, hey there, what's up?" he asked "Nothing I am just running into town for a few things." She replied "Okay, I am going to try to finish this paper work." He said with a sigh.
*Streets*
It had been a couple of hours since he got away from Steve. He was with his friends now; they were at their old hangout, an old abandoned store. Everyone was happy to see Cole again; they decided to celebrate like the old times. When the bottle of vodka reached Cole he thought about what Peter had said, "You are going to be faced with a lot of things that got you here in the first place, but you are stronger now and you have new tools. Don't be afraid to use them." By this time Cole was so confused, angry, and scared that he just shook the thought out of his head and took a huge drink of vodka. 2 minutes later he passed out on the ground. His so-called friends didn't care. Because when he woke up an hour later, they were all gone. The place was deserted and Cole had a massive hangover. He went over to the desk where they usually kept the drugs and beer was and he grabbed some of everything which was an ounce of marijuana, some cocaine, crystal meth, and acid. He also grabbed a razor and headed out the door. *Horizon* "Are you okay, Peter?" Sophie asked. "I just called Cole's house. His mom said when she got home..... Steve was passed out in the door of Cole's room... and Cole was gone" Peter finished.
"You don't think--" Sophie started.
"I think" Peter finished. It was right in front of their noses. They were both thinking the same things. 'where is he going' 'is he going to be okay' 'has he resorted to his old ways?' They didn't know. And that's what scared them. *On the streets* "Hey kid? Do you need a ride?" A muscular man asked Cole. Cole nodded and hopped in the front seat. After a while of talking and listening to the radio when the man asked, "Where are you headed?" "Just somewhere in Agnes" replied Cole "Oh, that's funny I am going to a school up there to visit my son, his name is David" the man said. A scared look came over Cole's face "what is the name of the school?" asked Cole worriedly "Mt. Horizon" the man replied. Cole had to quickly think of a plan. "Uh, I have to go to the bathroom. Can we stop at the next gas station?" Asked Cole "Sure I need to get a snack" replied the general. *Gas Station* Cole had hurried out of the bathroom to get into the car before the general did. He could see that he had left the keys in the ignition to the Pontiac Sunfire, he knew what he was about to do next was stupid, but he also knew that David would appreciate it. Cole quickly hoped into the drivers seat and started the car and put it into drive. General Ruxton heard this and ran out of the gas station yelling, "STOP! That is my car you're stealing!" he said as he chased the car out of the exit of the gas station. *Highway* As Cole got onto the highway he knew that the cops would be looking for the car so he had to get to Horizon. Being behind the wheel of a stolen car felt so good to do after not being able to do it for what felt like an eternity. After he had been driving for only 5 minutes he knew that he shouldn't but he couldn't resist the temptation, so he put his foot on the gas peddle and brought the car up to a hundred weaving in an out of cars. He finally started letting off the pedal when he saw the sign that said "Agnes- Next Exit" About ten minutes later Cole pulled up to the entrance of Mt. Horizon. "Here I go," he said with a sigh. He pulled up to the front lodge and before getting out he shot up some crystal meth right as Peter came running out of the building followed closely by Sophie, they got to the car just in time to see Cole pulling the needle out of his arm Peter yanked the door open and grabbed Cole by the arm and pulled him out, but before he said a word he gave Cole a hug to express how glad he was back and safe. Well that is the end of the first chapter. Please review and let me know what you think.
