Ten year olds Gabriella and Troy were playing at the park with their friends, Chad and Taylor. and with the twins, Sharpay and Ryan Evans. Chad, Troy, and Gabriella were playing basketball with each other. Troy was trying to get it away from chad, and he passed it to Gabriella.

"Gabi!" he yelled passing it to her, and then she missed it and it rolled passed her. "I'll go get it." when she skipped back to get the ball, someone grabbed it from her, pushing her on the ground. it was the 6th grade bully, James. "Aww look, Little Montez is playing basketball." she whimpered, "Please give me the ball." James smirked throwing the ball at her face. she whimpered, tears rolling down her cheeks. James laughed, "Look, the baby is gonna cry." Gabriella sniffled, "Troy!" she ran towards him crying.

Troy watched the crying ten year old Gabriella run towards him in tears. she hugged him whimpering, "Gabi, what wrong?" he asked. she whimpered, "I tried to get the ball back, but he was so mean.." she cried. Troy looked at her confused, "Gabi, what are you talking about?" she pointed at the 6th graders who were playing with their ball. she looked up at him, "He hit me with the ball, and I tried to grab it.."

Troy bit his lip, standing straight up and marched over to the rowdy bunch of sixth graders. "HEY!" he screamed, James turned toward him, "Hey if it isn't the baby Bolton boy...how goes it?" Troy shook his head, "that's our ball give it back." James pretended to think, "hmm no." Troy clenched his fists, "Sorry, can't...basketball is too big a game to play for you rugrats." James didn't give him a chance to finish speaking, he pounced, and started hitting his face and chest, "that's our ball and you don't hit a girl! EVER! You fucker!" Troy always had an issue with language, his dad says it around him and...well, the Bolton's see no problem with it.

Gabriella's eyes went wide, as she watched her best friend punch the living daylights out of James. James looked at Troy, "Get off of me! here I'll give you your ball back!" Troy grabbed the ball from him, "Don't come near my gabi again!" Troy came over to Gabriella and hugged her, "You ok Gabi?" she nodded, "Me fine, can we go home and ask your mommy for oreo ice cream." Troy smiled and nodded, and all six of them went Troy's house and ate some ice cream.

As Gabriella began walking home across the street. A white van came towards her, a man jumping out, and grabbing her, and covering her mouth, and taking her inside the van and taking off. Gabriella began screaming for Troy, for the rest of her friends, and for her mommy and daddy, but it was no use.

An hour later, Mrs Montez came over to The Bolton's house and knocked on the door. Troy's Father came to the door. "Oh, Hi Maria, How are you doing?" she smiled softly, "I'm doing fine Jack, I'm here to pick up Gabriella..it's time for bed." Jack looked at her confused, "what do you mean? she's not here? she went home like an hour ago.' Maria shook her head, "No, she never came home.." they froze, "Oh my god, Can I come in, my baby's been kidnapped!" she began panicing, tears rolling down her cheeks.

She had tears running down her cheeks, "Please...I want my mommy and daddy." a lady with red hair and freckles moved to her, "Sweetie..I'm your mommy, okay." her tone was gentle, but Gabriella knew it wasn't true, she knew her parents. "I want my mommy and daddy..." the red-headed lady scooped Gabriella up in her arms, "Hey it's okay...it's okay Emma." Gabriella squirmed, "My name's not Emma...it's-" the lady pulled away, "your name is Emma. I'm your mother and Daniel is your father." Gabriella whimpered, but slowly nodded. But...she knew who her parents were, and she wanted to be with them. And Troy.

As the days and weeks grew older, There was no sight of Gabriella. Troy had no idea she was kidnapped, he thought she had taken off. ran away. cause she was picked on at school. he was angry, he..he hated her for leaving him. she was his best friend since they were in diapers, and she runs away. he was never gonna talk to her if he ever saw her, he knew for sure about that. he hated her. she broke his heart.
