Chapter Two: What About Chad?!?!?!?

~Chad's P.O.V~

I woke up to the usual loud banging on my door early in the morning. And as usual right after I wake up the guy comes in with his mask on and starts beating me.

'Slap'

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed as he smacks the belt on my back multiple times. As he does this, he re-opens the wounds on my back from the days before when he beat me terribly for talking back to him. I keep thinking that one day I am going to get out of this hellhole. Let's just hope that day is soon.

When he was beating me, I also noticed something fall out of his pocket. When he left after abusing me for the next ten minutes, I crawled over to what ad dropped to the ground. All I could think of as I looked at the silver object on the phone was that for once god has answered my prayers and will be setting me free from this place I call HELL soon. Very Soon!!!!

~Troy's P.O.V~

I cannot believethat it's been one year today that my best friend went missing. I just wish we could find him. Most people do not know this but we have been looking for him. Not just me but all of my friends too. We couldn't let go knowing that our friend is out there dying. If he's not already dead yet. But that's what were hoping isn't true.

I walked into my dorm that morning after my first class of the day. Advanced Physics. I went to the fridge to get something to drink. I was about to sit down when my girlfriend of three years came bursting through the door with her best friend, with tears streaming down both of their faces. As soon as I saw this, I went running towards them.

"Baby, what's wrong?!" I asked Gabriella. Worry stretching through my voice. I stood there for a couple of seconds waiting for an answer, but I never got one.

"Brie?! Speak to me baby!! What happened?!" I pleaded to her once again.

"Chad" she said.

I was standing there in front of her confused as to why she would say her big brother's name. Oh, did I happen to mention that Brie's mom and Chad's dad got married. Yep, that was the reason Gabriella and her mom moved here.

When Gabriella and her mom lived in New York, her mom met Marcus Danforth during an outing with one of her friends. They exchanged numbers and kept in close contact with each other. When decided to take their 'friendly' relationship to the next level her and Gabriella decided to move out here so her mom could be happy. Chad and Gabriella were thrilled that their parents were dating again.

Marcus and Maria had actually been engaged the night Chad went missing and said that they would tell Brie and Chad after the musical but that never happened. Well it sort of did.

They did tell us but it was only because my mom saw the ring on Maria's finger one day and they had to tell us. They said that they didn't want to tell everyone until Chad came back. However, after five months of looking, they gave up and decided to get married and here we are today.

"What about Chad baby?! I need you to look at me and tell me what's going on." I told her. And soon she calmed down enough to tell me what was happening.

"It's Chad" Brie said when she sat down.

"What about him?" I asked her again in calm, soothing voice.

"He called." Said Taylor as she sat on the other side of Gabriella and started to have tears stream down her face again.

~No One's P.O.V~

Troy sat there shocked and might I add pale in the face at what Taylor had just said. He suddenly got his speech back when he heard himself say, "What do you mean he called Tay?"

"That's just it," she started, "he called." Troy looked at her and could tell that she was scared for Chad. 'I would be too. HELL, I am scared for Chad. What if he's hurt? What if he's dying? Where is he?' All these thoughts were running through Troy's head while he was processing what he had just discovered, that his best friend is still alive and out there fighting for his life.
