Chapter Five

Amelia opened the door to her apartment. She stopped in the door way and ringed the water out of her hair and clothes before she entered. She then popped off her shoes before taking a seat on her couch.

"It's about time you showed up," A voice said. Amelia stood immediately, and looked around. She didn't see anyone around.

"Who's there?" She asked, still looking around. Her face showed that she was brave, but it was a lie. She was terrified. "Show yourself!"

Amelia Sunrise turned around, to see Darla Vindbrigger, her birth mother standing behind her. Amelia gulped. When she heard someone speak, she was scared, but now that she knew that it was her mother, she was so scared that there wasn't a word in the dictionary that described how she felt. She feared her mother more than anyone or anything else in the world. Darla Vindbrigger would make the scariest spider you see crawling in your house seem like an adorable newborn puppy. If you should fear anyone in the world, it would have to be her.

"Mother... W-what brings you here?" Amelia tried to hide her fear, but it was almost impossible to manage. She knew that Darla could see her fear.

"Why am I here?" Darla raised her voice, with anger. "I asked you to do one thing. ONE THING! It was so simple and easy a mouse could do it! But you failed! You failed! Chronos has given you one more chance to do it right. If you fail again Miss Amelia Sunrise, it will cost you your life, and perhaps your dearest Theresa will not live as well! I will not tolerate this any longer child. Do as I tell you, and you will likely see another day."

Darla left the house immediately after finishing her sentience. Amelia collapsed her wet body back onto the couch. She put her hands on her head and screamed. Was it just her, or was everyone's life so hard and miserable?

Night fell upon Magix. Everyone was sound asleep, everyone but Tanya and Kristina. They were terrified to go to sleep that night, poor Sienna, who they haven't been able to tell yet that she is all alone with a bunch of criminals. They just couldn't find her.

Tanya rolled over onto her stomach. She looked over Rosliananna and kept her eye on Tara, who was sound asleep. Just hours before, she trusted Tara , not only Tara, but Edana,LibertyBell, and Paige. They were close friends to her, until now. Now her hatred, anger, and fear grew.

What was she going to do? What were she and Kristina going to do? Go to the Headmistress? If they told, would they strike again? What did Claire and Katy do that made those girls kill them?

Thousands of questions ran through her head. Tanya didn't want to shut her eyes longer then a split second. But all her thought vanished instantly when her phone buzzed. She looked at the screen, and moved her thumb over the ignore button. Tanya wasn't the only one lying. She lied this morning as well. When the girls ask who was yelling in the hall, she didn't say it was her.

Tanya was a princess. She grew up to know that telling a lie, is bad and you should never do it. She obeyed it most of the time. But there were those times that she had no choice but to lie, just like today. She was not ready to tell them the truth yet. But it would soon come out, and she'd hoped they'd forgive her at the end for not telling the truth.

She wasn't going to lie to the other's little secret about committing murder for much longer. They need to know the truth, and they were going to here it, soon. Tanya and Kristina both didn't know how to tell them. But they were going to figure it out soon.

Now, Tanya's new thoughts were interrupted again, but not by her vibrating phone, this time, a scream, a scream that came from the other room in the dorm, a scream coming from Paige and Natalie's room.

Natalie! Tanya stood in the doorway while tears formed in her eyes. She knew exactly what was going on in there. It wasn't much longer as the other girls got out of their beds from the shriek. Kristina's eyes were tearing up as well, as she realized the same conclusion as Tanya. Natalie was dead. Kristina and Tanya didn't enter the room, as the other dorm members did. Rosli came running into the room after just a peek inside the dorm.

"Tanya, Kristina, go get help!" She commanded in a yell, "Hurry!"

Rosli didn't have to yell more than once. Kristina darted out the door with Tanya right behind her. They knew what had happened in the room without having to look in there. It was the same thing that had happened to Claire and Katy.

"Was Liberty Bell and Edana in your room when you heard the scream?" Tanya asked Kristina as they ran down the hall in there pajamas. Kristina nodded.

"Yeah, they were. What about Tara ?"

"Yes, then it was Paige, and possibly the 101 girls. That's who did it." The girls arrived at Miss Faragonda's office. The door was left opened and no one was inside.

"She probably went home for the night," Kristina suggested. "Come on, Griselda's office is right down the hall. I doubt they would leave thousands of teenage girls alone."

The two pounded on the door of the office as they arrived, Griselda opened the door.

"Girls!" She responded with a yawn. "What are you two doing up at one in the morning! You have classes tomorrow, and I remember the lights out is at eleven!"

"Sorry to disturb you Ms. Griselda!" Kristina pleaded. "But it's an emergency. Natalie-"

"I'll be right there," The middle-aged woman replied, as she grabbed a robe and tied the belt. She slipped on a pair of slippers and ran out the door, following the two teens in front of her quickly down the hallways of the school.

Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I am starting to write at my normal chapter length, so yes the chapters are going to be shorter than the first three. Those were long to get the plot rolling faster! But don't worry, there will be long chapters here and there, but most of them would average a 1500. Also if you could see, all of the BFF stories now have a title cover.

Now, I know I only introduced one new specialist, and zero new witches, I keep telling you all that I will might do it the next chapter. This is what I am going to do(I think): I will introduce the heroes and witches as soon as possible. I am not sure which chapter yet, but it will be soon. It probably won't be like I had introduced the others, but they will be introduced. For the minor characters, as I said when I posted this, I will probably use all of them, but I might miss a few. I am sorry if I do.

Thanks everyone for your support. Even if your OC hasn't appeared into the story yet, just hang in there. Thank you to Roxy Fan 4 Ever for beta-ing this story, and all my other stories. And also thank you to StarsMagic, RainFlowers, Anon34, Lycory, and Angelique-Life. Thank you so much for everything you did! Keep it up everyone! I appreciate it so much!

Until next time, what's going on in Paige and Natalie's room? Are Tanya and Kristina right? To find out, review and just wait!
