Sorry if the latest chapter wasn't good. Here's the new one, I hope you'll enjoy.
Toby POV.
I need weapons, not small weapons, and real big weapons. Of all the seasons of the Freaky Games I have watched, nobody ever came very prepared. I really have to get prepared, physically for a fight. The biggest of my whole life. No one can come disturb my life, threaten my girl, terrorise my friends and kill them and expect me to just sit back and watch, literally. They say life is a battlefield and they have no idea of how right they are. -A never lost any of her game didn't she? She always had what she wanted but now, she'll be the one falling in front of her psycho friends. I'd kill her with my bear hands if I had to. I just need to be discreet and sneaky enough. Hiding from my friends wouldn't be that hard but –A has eyes everywhere. I'm not scared and I will never back down. Whatever it takes, I'm willing to risk it.
I get to the street where Ben is supposed to sell me his guns and wait.
External POV The lake house
« Why does Alison keep repeating that she killed Alison? It doesn't make sense. Why would she have done it? I'm not buying it. But then why does she lie about who killed Alison? Do you think she's protecting someone? Did you read anything in Alison's diary Aria? » Said Emily focused in the problem.
« Not about that but she did speak about some recent events that changed the way she looked at herself. I swear Emily; it was like reading someone else's diary. It was filled with emotions and she wrote that she could never totally be herself around us. It's sad to see that our friendship was built on lies. » Aria was still reading the papers but there wasn't that much of the diary left to read.
Aria's phone rang; she received a text from A.
Find out what Alison talks about and one of you will get an afternoon with Spencer Hastings in the Dilemma Room. A
« Ok now we HAVE to find out what she meant. What do you see in the microdots info? I'm sure we have all we need there. » Said Aria putting her hands in the information they had. « Ezra we need your help too. »
Ezra came and grabbed a few copies of the info and began looking for clues just like Aria and Emily.
Caleb POV
My mind is ready to explode. Why did I leave Hanna? If she dies I'll never forgive myself. How can she have so much faith in me? She put her life in my hands and I will do anything not to risk it. I am walking in the street with no idea of where I'm going. It might sound cliché but I feel lost without her. I need her back, she's all I think about. I'm still walking as I stumble and find myself on the floor.
"Come on like I needed that!" I take a look at my jeans they were all dirty. How am I supposed to find Hanna? She's counting on me I have to go get her. I put my hands in my pockets to get a tissue or anything that would take off this mouldy stain. A bunch of papers get in my hand and I realise that every time I succeeded to an ordeal. –A gave me a clue to finding Hanna. So I had to read them all and get her.
I found a quiet isolated place and sat. Took all of my pieces of paper and tried to remember which ones came first. A little smile came to my face. Hanna, I'm coming!
External POV Mental Care Hospital.
Jason Dilaurentis never stopped looking for his sister's murderer. Every time he had a new lead he couldn't resist but explore it. He was now at the mental hospital where Emily had her treatment. It was the one where Mona was taken care of. Good! It gave him an excuse.
He signed up and met Mona in the visitor's room.
"Why are you here?" She asks him happy to have some kind of company in this lonely treatment.
He had a hard time looking at her considering the fact that she was a part of the A team, which was why she was there in the first place.
"I'm going to need your help. I'm looking for my sister's murderer and I think you could help me get my hand on him."
"Him? What makes you think it wasn't a woman?" She looks at him playing a little game.
Jason gets suspicious and starts to think that she knows exactly who did this to his little sister. "What do you know? Who is it?" He was getting a bit angry.
"I'm just saying you know. They don't really let me in all of their secrets. I just follow the orders. What can I do for you?" She inquires innocently.
"I want you to get me Emily's file. She was treated in this hospital a few years ago and I need to have a full official document to see if there's any link to Alison's death."
"I'll see what I can do." She says very serious.
"Wait, are you allowed to give me this information? I mean with your -A thingy…. whatever stuff."
"Yes of course I am. A wants you to take this path. We are serving justice and truth. You'll get what you need. A plays the games honestly." Mona's eyes were filled with admiration.
Jason was disturbed to see how much power A had over her. Mona was literally dedicated to A. He couldn't help but wonder how many more people A managed to convince of her "Justice and truth" philosophy.
Right before he leaves, a doctor runs after him. Jason looks at Wren with surprise on his face.
"Can I help you in anyway? I know you're in a" Wren looks around him and reduces the volume of his voice "a delicate situation" Jason looks at him and wonders if he knew.
"I'm sure there must be something I could help you with" He concludes a hand on Jason's shoulder.
External POV
Caleb was walking with his pieces of paper in the right order. He just needed to find a taxi to get there without risking a car accident provoked by –A.
He crossed a street and recognized Toby, he ran to him.
"Oh my God, you're out man!" He shakes his friend's hand.
Toby nods but is nervous about Caleb discovering his plans. "Where's Hanna?" He asks.
"She's still with the monsters but I'm on my way to get her, I need to go. Tell the others that we'll be back soon."
Caleb walks away but Toby grabs his jacket "You're going to need that" He says hand him a gun. "Do you know how to use it?" He inquires suddenly worried; he might hurt Hanna if he doesn't aim right.
"I was born a gun in my hands. See you later bro. Get Spencer back"
"That's the plan" Replies Toby he grabs his bag from the floor, Caleb had no idea the amount of weapons his friend just got.
External POV The lake house
"The diary talked about recent events and I think I found something that would help us with that." Ezra points out a few foreign symbols which neither Aria nor Emily had ever seen before and a word Rajab.
Aria throws a confused look to Ezra and he begins to explain "Ok, so what you see here are Arab numbers, if we google it we might translate them in our language…" He got cut off
"It'll give us the date of these events, you're a genius" Emily got excited, of course she'd give the afternoon to Toby.
They translate the numbers and it gives them 7/1429.
"Ok, what now because I don't know what to do with that." Said Aria still shocked by the symbols she saw earlier.
"I don't think Alison was born in 1429, we must have made a mistake." Emily checked the translation again and again.
"Maybe we could translate the date too. I mean, if those are Arab numbers, maybe it's from an Arabian calendar or something." Aria had her best idea of the day.
Caleb POV
I get to the place written on the paper but there's nothing. I get out of the taxi; I would dig up the road if I had to. A wooden box is sitting next to a rock which kept it from moving. I opened it and found an oxygen mask just like the ones you find in airplanes and a flashlight. What could I possibly do with that? I look inside the box ad find a note.
House on fire, house on fire. We are burning the key to your desire.
_A
The key to my desire? I see smoke coming from a house about a hundred meters further and finally get it. House on fire, burning the key to my desire. Hanna is in the house, and the house in burning. I run as fast as I can with the mask in my hand. No, no, no I haven't come so far to let them take her away from me. Never, nothing will keep me away from Hanna, not even flames. I get to the front of the house and there's a guard watching the door. I run to the door, I don't care about him; he has no idea what I am capable of.
The guard punches me as I sidestep his hit. I then get the chance to kick his neck and see him fall down. I get to the house and immediately cough. My eyes water I can't see anything. I get the flashlight out of my box and start to look for Hanna. I can't breathe so I decide to put the mask on. I hear some glass explode and I take some steps. I look at the ground and look for Hanna, I hear a cough and run towards the noise. It's her. What a relief! I run to her and instantly give her the oxygen mask, she pushes it at first but I decide to share it with her. I breathe once and she breathe after me and as it goes. I try to get her to get up but she shows me her leg. She had a big piece of glass in her calf. I get her up and tell her to jump on one leg. We take a few steps and a giant ignited piece of the roof falls right in front of us which steals a scream out of her. I take my jacket off and turn of the piece of wood long enough for us to get pass it.
We are finally out of the house and Hanna is tired, her leg must hurt really badly even if she doesn't want to let me know. A guard gets to us and I tell Hanna to go hide. I take a rock in front of me and throw it to him; he was hit on the head so we must have some time to take off. Hanna holds my arm and I help her to walk, another guard walks towards us as I see his two other friends behind him. That is why I love Toby even more; I take the gun and am ready to shoot whoever gets in my way. Hanna is terrified I can feel it but that's what it takes to stay alive.
I pull the gun in front of me and aim for the shoulder.
"Caleb, please don't!" I hear her scream with difficulty but I have no choice.
I shoot the first one and then the second to the leg. Behind him there's another of A's guards, I shoot him on the knee. I don't want to kill anyone; I just need them not to be able to chase us. Once we finally get out of A's guards sight, I don't know who else to call but Noel. I can't call Toby, he must be in the middle of a plan to save his girl, just like I was, and I trust Noel. He always seemed honest.
"Hanna, do you think you'll be alright until Noel gets here?" She nods in a smirk of pain. I hug her with all my heart and I am happy to feel her arms embrace me.
"You made it again; we really are the epic couple aren't we?" She says with her cheek lying on my chest.
I sigh in relief and rub her arms; even covered with ashes she's still cute as hell. I think I'm addicted to this girl.
"Yes we are" I say kissing her ashy hair.
External POV The lake house
"Now that we know that Rajab is July and that the full date is July 11 of 2008, I have to ask you if it rings a bell." Ezra looked at the girls.
"Isn't it the summer she went away?" Emily asked Aria who nodded without hesitation "And I do remember a newspaper article which was in the box Maya gave me. You know the one with Ali's stuff in it? We'll have to get it from my house though." She says realising that her mother wouldn't let her back if she came home.
"We still have Google" Aria takes her PC and searches for articles about Rosewood from that day. She only found three and only one could explain what was in Alison's diary.
"The Biggest potato of the year was grown in Rosewood!"
"Twins bullied to death"
"Armed robbery at the Central Rosewood Bank"
Aria opens the second article and reads about how Alison became such a nightmare to them that they thought they had no other choice than die. Alison's name never appeared in the article but it really looked like something she'd do. Emily looked at the picture and tears came to her eye.
"Oh my god" She says sobbing, "Zayn was behind me in Math class, Alison used to put glue on his chair so he'd end up stuck on the chair. It used to make me laugh; I'm such a terrible person"
"We didn't know, even Alison was devastated when she realised how horrible she was. We shouldn't have followed her lead." Aria's face revealed her pain and guilt.
Ezra was speechless, he never knew Alison but he knows the girls today and would have never imagined them being a part of something like that. Aria's phone gets a text
Well done, decide who's the lucky one and shout his or her name, you know I'll hear you.
-A
Caleb POV
A black car with tinted windows gets in front of us and I knock on the window to make sure it is for us. I wouldn't want to get in A's car. The window opens and I see Jason Dilaurentis, what the heck is he doing here?
"Don't give that look, get her inside, I'll explain." Looking at Hanna, I am not really in the position to refuse. I get Hanna in the back seat and notice an unwanted guest.
"Now what the hell are you here for?" Last time I saw him, he was trying to kiss my girl and I felt like punching his British face until he lost his British accent.
"Wren is a doctor; so when Noel called me, I thought he might be useful considering the fact that her calf is injured."
I try to calm down a bit and look at Wren in a warning "If you ever try to kiss her again, I'll take care of your case!"
"Ok now I see why you got pissed" Jason chuckles and drives away once I got in the front seat.
Ok so, I have a few things to say. First of all I wanted to give you my Twitter account so you can follow me and know when I'll update. Follow me, my username is the same you just need to add 1 in the end. Well that's said.
I created a social network to roleplay any character you'd like. You basically create their profile page just like Facebook and get to play around with the other character. PM me if you're interested in having the link.
Also I wanted to tell you that for this new year I have decided that every time I get 6 reviews for a new chapter I send to two reviewers a sneak peek of the next chapter.
Other than that have the awesomest, craziest, happiest, everythingiest 2013 and be happy 'cause life is good! KISSES From France!
