Chapter 2
Macey
I was sitting on the bed in my room trying warm up after going skiing when my phone started buzzing in my pocket. I took it out and looked at the screen. You have one new text message was blinking on my screen. I looked at it and almost had a heart attack as I read.
Hey Macey. U need 2 come back to Roseville aspa. Meet me Zach's.
~Liz
I shoved my phone into my back pocket, pulled out my suitcases, and filled it as possible explanations ran through my head.
Liz was planning a surprise party
Gallagher Academy was under attack
We were going on a CoveOps mission
Bex was pulling a prank on Liz
Josh remembered who Cammie was
The Circle was getting close
I finished packing and ran down the stairs, two at a time, and into the room where my parents were.
"Mom, Dad. I need to get back to Roseville." I said.
"Now?"
"Now!" I snapped.
My parents nodded and I ran out to the plane and told pilot to step on it. As we rose higher and higher into the sky, the more I thought that it was #6. It was the most probable reason. The others just had too many problems. I thought about that until I finally drifted off to sleep.
Bex
I rolled over and picked up my phone. I thought about throwing it against the wall, but figured that my parents wouldn't like if I broke another phone. I blinked, trying to see clearly and read the new text message that had woke me up.
Hey Bex. Meet me at Zach's NOW!
~Liz
I sat up straight and made a beeline for my closet. I pulled on a pair of blue jeans, and a white t-shirt and ran out the door. I reached Zach's door and knocked. '
After about 3 days Zach finally came to the door.
"Hey Bex. Liz just went to the news station and Macey's on her back from Switzerland."
"Cool. Is Cammie coming? I haven't been able to get in touch with her."
"I'm not sure. Liz texted her, but the Gallagher Academy burned down this morning and there was someone inside. Liz went to see who it was."
I stumbled backwards like he hit me across the face.
"Do you think it was her?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.
All of the sudden Macey came running up the steps.
"Would someone please tell me what was so urgent?" She asked
After Zach and I finished explaining to her what had happened she looked horror-stricken.
"Do you think it was Cammie?"
"I don-"
He was cut off by Liz running down the road. She came up the steps with tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Was it Cammie?" I whispered.
She started to say something, but choked and nodded. I bit my lip to stop the tears and Macey sat down, put her head in her hands and started to sob. Zach didn't look any better and if my heart didn't feel so broken I would have laughed.
