Whisper To A Scream

Chapter 9

The Breaking Point Part II

---------------------------------------------------

Troy and the gang raced to Gabriella's house, worried and scared.

"Call the cops Kelsi," said Ryan, in the backseat of Zeke's car. Kelsi frantically punched in the numbers.

"Their gonna be okay Troy," said Chad comfortingly, sitting in the back of Troy's car with Taylor.

"What if were too...late?" he choked out.

"Don't say that Troy!" said Taylor, but was doubting was she had said. In no time, they arrived at her house. They got out of their cars and rushed through the open door. They immediately heard Sharpay's sobbing at the bottom of the stairs.

"You girls wait here until the cops come," ordered Chad as he, Troy, and Zeke rushed up the stairs.

Zeke wrapped his arms around Sharpay as she continued sobbing while Troy and Chad burst into the room. Troy searched the dark room for Gabi and saw her backed up against the wall, her dad about 5 feet from her. Troy thrust himself at him knocking him down. Jose(her dad) pushed Troy off of him. Chad grabbed Gabriella quickly to lead her out, but Jose grabbed a tight hold of her and pushed Chad away.

"Let me go!" cried Gabriella, shaking from fright.

Troy tried to tackle him down again but Jose elbowed him hard. As Troy sat up slowly, his vision blurred. He saw Gabriella's dad thrust something in her chest area, somewhere, he thought, around the heart.

"Gabriella!" he screamed as he watched her fall down limp onto the ground. All of a sudden Chad smashed a lamp onto Jose's head, leaving him out cold. Panting, Troy crawled toward her and held her in his arms. Just then they heard sirens downstairs and the police burst into the room, their guns held up. Some got Jose up and took him away, and some turned towards Troy and Gabriella.

"Call the paramedics!" one yelled shooing a couple of officers to get them. "It's gonna be okay kid, " he said in a soft tone. He then picked up his radio and was talking furiously. Soon the paramedics came and took Gabriella in the ambulance.

"Who's coming with her!?" one called out.

"Go Troy," said Chad, "We'll follow."

-------------------------------------------------

"Troy," said Sharpay sitting next to Troy in the waiting room of the hospital, tears visible, "I...I'm so sorry." Troy looked up at her, his eyes shining with tears.

"For what? It wasn't your fault," he said then again looking straight.

"I-I should've helped her, b-but I didn't. I was just too scared. I'm so sorry," her eyes now welled up with tears.

"No," said Troy softly not looking at her, "You couldn't have done anything..."

"Gabriella Montez?" called out the doctor.
