Hey sorry guys, life happed and I know it has been 3 years and a lot has changed, lets hope my writing abilities are one of them, but I thought I would give finishing this fanfiction a chance just forgive me if I get some of the show's details wrong, I need to rewatch season 5 to get a better understanding of where these characters are at, anyways thank you for sticking with it and sending me lovely messages to finish it. I am trying, I promise. :)

Megan couldn't believe it, drafted, her brother should have gotten honorable discharge. He didn't, of course he didn't. It has to be A, she thought, it has to be. What about this weird thing going on with Ali, this great, weird thing? She wanted it to head somewhere but clearly A didn't think that way. A only thought about hurting everyone in their path, they didn't care if people were happy, they just wanted to cause everyone pain because it was amusing.

"Hey, everything is going to be ok. They are going to let you finish school atleast and you will be with Em's dad and that should at least give you some comfort." Xander said trying to be comforting but utterly failing. They were on their way to the gym, so Megan relax a little with a tough workout and not think for a little bit or in reality her trying not to sit on the couch, watching Mean Girls eating as much food as possible before she had to eat the basic disgusting food they served in basic training.

"Everything is not going to be ok, Xander. This is real and it's not something you can just runaway from, because if I did, I will be in jail and I can't be in jail when my brother is out there somewhere being tortured by A!" She finally snapped, she was scared and she instantly had to admit that to Xander or he would not leave her alone until she told him what was wrong. She sighed and breathed in and breathed out, "I'm sorry Ax I'm just scared and stressed, this just makes me nervous after what happened to Matt. He's really gone because of this war and I don't want to make anyone feel the way I did after he died, ok? I am really sorry for snapping." she was tearing up a little now.

"I know you feel lost right now, but remember you are doing this for your brother. Matt would have been proud of you and besides you will be a badass sergeant Monkey." they both laughed, he always knew the right ways to cheer up his friend.

Suddenly there was a loud ping to interrupt their laughter and then multiple others followed. The gang knew something was up and wanted to make sure she was ok, the only person she felt like talking to was Ax but she knew they would find out soon especiallly if A was involved.

Ali: Hey, are you ok?

Megan: I will be, Xan. picked me up and is trying to keep me relaxed.

Ali: Megan what is going on? What happened?

Megan: A

Ali: Why the hell is A messing with you even more?

Megan: I don't know maybe because it's A and A stands for asshole.

Ali: HaHa that was actually pretty good. Any way you would want to move that date towards tonight and then discuss with the gang about what happened tomorrow morning?

Megan: That might actually help a lot, it certainly would make me feel better not being alone. Thank you for thinking of me, I will pick you up at 7 still?

Ali: Maybe, if you tell me where we are going? ; )

Megan: I will be at your house at 7, be dressed nicely but bring casual close for later. Easier to eat you with my dear.

Ali: You know that book actually scared me a lot as a child and now we are playing in A's advanced story book of those fairy tales.

Megan: I was more of a Sleeping Beauty person myself, I love to sleep what can I say?

Ali: Alright my Sleeping Beauty, see you at 7 tonight!

Emily's PoV

I was getting really concerned about Megan at this point that was too much of a dramatic exit for it to be some little thing. Megan is too smart to get into too much trouble so obviously it has to be A and I don't know what is going on with Ali and Megan, maybe Ali is blackmailing her, I hope not, and at this point I think we have decided Ali isn't A.

"It obviously has to be A." I said. It had to be and I couldn't help but wonder if Megan was in serious danger or not.

"Let's look at the alternatives, we have to look at all the options before we can really think this is A. Megan had a really complicated, and rough past, maybe, just maybe, that is catching up with her in some way. Maybe they found her brother look in a torturing hole in like the Himalayas or something." Spencer replied trying to calm everyone's nerves.

"It's not any of those alternatives, Spence, it's A and she told me." A voice said behind us. It was Ali.

"What are doing here Ali? You hit Spence and that is not easily forgiven after all you have done." I shot.

"She is still part of this predicament, A is her problem as much as A is ours." Aria said, but clearly everyone disagreed but they could not say so because Aria was hard to fight with. They all signaled with their eyes their distaste for Aria's option but agreed that she should stay based on Aria's argument. "Ali," Ari said after the group's silent argument, "what else has Megan told you? Do you think A could be coming after us next?"

"I honestly don't know but whatever it is, it is big, whatever A did to Megan this time was a huge hit. Maybe even bigger than her brother. And maybe, this may be a play by A to distract us before they really hit one of us." Ali replied genuinely.

Thanks again guys for reading! Next chapter will feature Ali and Megan's date and where is Emison? Don't worry guys it will happen, just wait. Like, Follow, Favorite, and PM me with new ideas. Thank you for being so supportive! I apologize for such a long hiatus.
