Tales of Diana & Drake:

The Ranga and the Dilemma .


Disclaimer (again): Michael Grant owns Gone, and all that jazz that goes with it.

Okay, this isn't my best, but its alright, and again any idea's about this story would be deeply appreciated.


DIANA AND DRAKE were on the outskirts of Perdido beach, they've been travelling for about 2 since they left their home at Coates Academy.

"Where is Sam?" Diana said to herself furiously. She was over it, two days alone with Drake was enough to drive her insane. Drake just stared at her with blood shot eyes. They never got to sleep the past nights.

"Get back, Diana, Get back" Drake called. They moved behind the building. Diana thought it was weird Drake looking out for, oh well kind of. But she knew he was only doing it because he would find himself being thrown into a wall.

"Uh, oh, thanks." Diana whispered as a tall red headed boy walked pass. Drake resisted the urge to cal out "RANGA!" as the kid walked past. After he was out of site Drake and Diana walked on. "Where do you think Sammy Boy hides out?" Drake asked.

"Where ever Astrid is, I'm guessing- Back! Back! Back!" Diana warned. Drake's eyes suddenly lit up. He leapt out in front of the poor defenceless boy. He looked about eleven. Drake grabbed the boy with his left and then wrapped his whip around the scared boy's throat.

"Where is Sam?" Drake demanded. The boy was terrified. He pointed out the way.

'Drake, how do you know he won't tell Sam" Diana realised. Drake considered the thought and then squeezed his whip hand tighter until all the life lest in that boy was gone.

"Well, with that out of the way, how are we supposed to get to Sam without being seen?" Diana asked concerned.

"Don't worry about that." Drake said. They walked through the town, behind buildings and lurking in the shadows. They ended up just outside the town plaza; they needed to get across without being seen that was practically impossible.

"How are we-?" Diana was cut off by Drake grabbing her hand and pulling her through the town plaza. They nearly made it but right towards the end of the town plaza heads started to turn. Drake pushed Diana towards a nearby building and crushed her to him, kissing her furiously. Diana fought and resisted at first then she stopped and stood there limp. Drake suddenly stopped. Diana was relived and disappointed all at once.

"What?! Why?! Huh?" She shrieked at him. He pulled away and didn't make eye contact as they ran out of the town plaza.

"Well, no one saw us did they?" Drake said, still not looking at her. "And, if you tell anyone about this, I will kill you, mark my words, I will." He said, and Diana saw that he meant it.

"Don't worry, I won't, and uh, thanks, for uh, keeping us unseen I guess." Diana said, as they made their way towards Sam's house.


NOTE: For any one that doesn't know, "Ranga" is a term used for red heads, short for orang-utan. Just in case you were wondering.

And again, anyone got ANY idea's?

Thank You.
