The queen parted the ocean of students as she walked through the hallway. Her 4 minions walking beside her. Spencer the smarty-pants, Aria the weirdo, Emily the jock and Hanna, the one that Alison used to make herself look good. She did not know when she felt this way but lately, she's been having some feelings...that she's being watched. No! She's being stalked. Alison was so busy with her thought that she bumped into some guy. Things went sour and Lucas got a new name. Then, come lunch. The girls talked about sex, Emily and the party at Noel Kahn's. Things happen and secrets were revealed. Now, standing in front of the Kahn's household were Alison and her friends, wearing their respective costumes. They danced and had a good time until they got a text message from Alison. She told them to come to the creepy old house ASAP.
"What do you think's going on?" Asked Hanna innocently after they reached their destination.
Spencer just shook her head because she also have no idea as to why Alison would ask them to come here. Especially when she's wearing a corset that hurts like hell. "I don't know Hann. Where's Ali anyway?"
"Guys, you don't think...she's in trouble...right?"
"Of course not Em. She's probably inside, mingling with some VIP or something and she calls us so that we can join her cause...you know...she don't know anyone...inside?" Said Aria confidently. At least that's what she thought.
Aaarrgghh!!! A scream can be heard from inside the house. The girls turned almost simultaneously. "Is that Ali?" Asked Emily. Worry was written all over her face but it is not that suspicious because all of them were worried. With no questions asked, the girls ran into the house bearing a weapon each. Aria with her hands curled up into a fist...small fist, Hanna with her Britney Spears' famous paps beater umbrella, Emily with a twig she picked just outside the house and Spencer with her heels.
"Ali!!!"
"In here." A whisper catch them off guard. Then a slender arm dragged them inside a dark room. "Oh my god! This is so messed up." Cried Ali. Her breathing became faster every seconds.
"Ali, what's going on? Why were you shouting? Are you hurt?"
"Obviously not Em. Anyway, I didn't know how I got here! Someone grabbed me in the party and locked me up in a closet. Luckily I got out but..." Alison started sobbing frantically. Her body rocked aggressively against the wall.
The girls looked towards each other and then Spencer, being a good friend, hugged Alison and calmed her. "Shh, it's okay Ali. We're here now. You're safe with us."
But then, just as Spencer said this, a loud bang happen. The girls jumped out in surprise and fear. "What's that?" Asked Alison, still whispering.
"We should call the cops. I mean isn't this kidnapping?"
"Agree. We should call the cops like right now," Said Aria, supporting Emily's idea.
"You're really gonna eat that honey?"
Alison's word stung like poison in Hanna's heart. She looked at Alison timidly and said, "That's the plan..."
"I'm just being a good friend Hanna. We do have a dress to fit for after all. Right?" Alison gave Hanna a winning smirk. Her typical attitude. What a bitch!
"Hey, Melissa!" Said Alison, changing her target.
"Uhmm, hey?''
"Spencer have something she wanna say. Spence?"
"No! Uhmm...I mean...no. Ali's just being silly."
Hearing this, Melissa just shrugged it off as a typical quarrel her sister always have with Alison. "If you say so," she then went to the den with her boyfriend, Ian Thomas. The good boy in the neighborhood.
After Melissa left, Spencer pulled Alison's hand to the pool, outside the kitchen. "What's wrong with you?" Spencer asked.
"You need to tell her the truth."
"What? Why do you care so much? This doesn't have anything to do with you."
"Of course it does. Don't you see Spence? I'm trying to help you do the right thing. Cause if you don't tell her...I will," Alison walked into the house.
"Ali, don't you dare!" Spencer ran after her and tugged her hand, causing Alison to stop walking. "If you tell Melissa, I'm going to tell everyone about the Jenna Thing."
This caused Alison to huff, " If you tell, I'll make sure darling...that your life become hell." She pulled her hand from Spencer's grasp forcefully.
"Cec, what're you doing here?"
Cece Drake and Jessica DiLaurentis turned their head simultaneously upon hearing Alison's voice.
"Are you coming with us to Cape May?"
"Uhmm, yeah," Cece answered nervously.
"Cool! Jason's upstairs. He's being an ass cause I hide his stash in his drawer, but don't tell him that."
"Ali, don't tease your brother like that! He's older. You have to respect him." Scolded Mrs. D.
" I see what you did there. You hid it at the most unexpected place. That's very clever." Said Cece with a proud smile.
" Of course. I mean he already suspected me. Hiding it in my room is like putting my king out in the open."
Mrs. D stole some glances at Cece's way as her daughter interacted with her son's girlfriend.
"Looks like Jason's still haven't figured it out yet," Cece peered her head over the opening from the window.
"He's a dumbass," Spat Alison. She looked away as she said this.
"Language, Ali!" Mrs. D. scolded Alison again. This time, Alison said, "Whatever," whilst rolling her eyes.
Mrs. D. sighed heavily. "Go pack your bag. We're about to leave."
"Duh, I already did. Don't you see these 2 large bags beside me?"
"So girls, this week I'm going to Georgia to visit my grandma. After that, I think we should have a last sleepover at Emily's house. You know, as a symbolic. For the new chapter of our exciting life!" Said Alison with her usual alluring tone.
" That sounds fun. When do you leave for Georgia?" Asked Aria.
" This afternoon." Said Alison nonchalantly.
"And you just tell us now?"
"Will you just calm your tits, Spence? Not that you have one. No offense Hann." Replied Alison with her savage remarks. Emily and Aria looked at each other with a guilty expression.
Knowing how awkward it suddenly got, Alison added, "I'm joking girls! Geez, why so serious?"
"That's very rude Ali. You're body shaming me and Hanna."
"So? It's just a boobs. It'll get bigger with age. You don't have to worry, Spence. Although, for Hanna I don't think that'll happen anytime soon. I mean have you seen your mom? She looked like a floor board," Alison continued her quest to shatter Hanna's heart. "What? Do you want me to wear a shirt that says, " I'm joking" every time I make a joke? Geez, grow up girls!"
"It's okay Ali. I know you're joking," Said Hanna for the first time. A pool of tear was starting to form in her eyes.
"So why are you not laughing? If it's funny, you should laugh. Laugh Hann," Alison demanded.
"I..." Hanna looked at Emily. Silently asking for her help.
"I think it's funny. Hahaha." Emily faked laugh. She then wrapped Hanna's hand inside her own while tracing comforting circles on Hanna's knuckles.
"Awww, you're so cute Em! Anyway, my friend said that you can actually make your boobs bigger by being fat. You should try that sometimes Hann. Oh wait. You already did. Is that why you started eating like a pig? Because you wanted to have bigger boobs?"
"How can this happen? I don't understand." The doorknob almost finished turning when Mrs. D suddenly said, " I don't want you going out tonight," as she talked to the person on the other line again.
"It's the last day of summer. Plus, we've made this plan literally a week ago," Alison whined at her mother.
"It's not a discussion," Mrs. D said with her phone still latched onto her ear.
"We planned this ages ago and you said it was okay," Alison tried to coax her mother. She then sighed because her supposable caring mother was not even paying the slightest attention to her. She then went upstairs but stopped when she heard her mother said, "You have to send someone immediately," and hanged up. Just as she was about to say something to Alison, her phone rang again.
"Yes,'' she answered. "Is there any news?" She continued as her hand nervously tapped the wooden dining table. "Please hurry. I'm very worried."
Alison used this opportunity to steal something from her mother's bag. She then stealthily went out through the back door and ran to Emily's, her neighbor.
The girls were laughing and listening to music while drinking the tequila Hanna stole from her mother's liquor cabinet. When all of a sudden, the music stopped and all the lights in Emily's house went out.
"Hey, what happen?" Asked Aria.
" It must be the storm," Spencer pointed out. Then, the girls heard some noise just outside Emily's bedroom window. All of them froze.
"Guys, someone's out there," Aria whispered with a clear scared expression on her face. The bedroom door opened suddenly as Alison barged into the room, " Gotcha!" She said. The girls screamed.
"So not funny Ali!" Said Spencer while everyone just laughed it off.
"How'd you even get in?" Emily asked curiously.
"Next time, don't put your extra key below the welcome mat. It's very dangerous Em." Alison answered with the matter-of-fact tone.
"There's two mats..." Emily mumbled drunkenly.
"Yeah. And if the bad guys choose the wrong mat, they'll die." Alison replied sarcastically.
"Guys, I've left her tons of messages. She's not replying."
"Maybe she forgot to charge her phone. Let's not worry about this too much," Spencer tried to reason with Aria. After finding out that Alison went missing when they woke up, the girls went back to sleep whilst silently praying she got home safely. When she didn't, the girls started becoming restless. They searched everywhere around Rosewood but even her silhouette was nowhere to be seen.
"Should we tell her parents?" Emily gave her idea, but it was quickly rejected by Hanna, " No, we made a pact remember? Always cover for each other no matter what happen."
So they just waited...
