FRANK
At lunch, I met up with all my friends in the cafeteria. My brother and Van were nowhere to be seen, which was okay with me. I wanted to share the voicemail I had saved on my phone.
"Frank, babe, are you doing okay?" Callie asked me, putting her hand on my arm.
"No, not really. I need to play you guys something." I pulled out my phone and played the voicemail for them. I kept it on a low volume so no one would over hear it. After it had finished, my friends all looked at me in horror.
"When did you get this Frank?" Tony asked me.
"This morning in calculus. I, I didn't answer it because I was in class".
"Is this real? Or is someone playing with you?" Biff asked.
"I have no idea." I said softly. My mind was spinning.
"Maybe that was really Joe on the phone. It would fit into all the weird ways Joe has been acting, if it wasn't really your brother" Chet spoke up.
"We could go look in the school basement. If Joe isn't there, then the call was just a prank" Tony suggested.
"Okay, how do we keep Joe occupied while we do this? If Joe is an imposter, he probably set this whole thing up" Callie asked.
"We ask Van" Biff said. We all gave him questioning looks, "They go out for a supper date, a couple of hours. That's plenty of time to see what's in the basement".
"I don't want her to get hurt" Callie argued.
"Tony and I will tail them and won't let Van of our sights" Phil finally spoke up.
"I'm coming too" Callie declared
"Okay, then that's the plan. We meet at my house at five to go to school, giving us two or three hours to look around at school" Biff exclaimed.
"Us?" I asked him.
"I'm not letting you go in alone. Joes my best friend. He's apart of our friend family and we will all help" they all nodded in agreement. I didn't know what to say as tears filled my eyes.
"Thanks you guys" I whispered.
"There's no needed to thank us, Frank" Tony said.
"I just texted Van, she's in" Callie looked at me.
"Ding ding" the bell rang to signal that lunch was over.
"See you guys at Biff's later" Chet got up to go to class. Everyone followed suite.
"I love you" I kissed Callie.
"I love you too" Callie replied back…
JOE
The sound of yelling and arguing awoke me from my sleep. I slowly opened my eyes to see what the noise was but I was seeing double. I definitely have a concussion now, I thought to myself, seeing as I had a very bad headache and a clouded vision. I closed my eyes to try to ease the pain, and listened in on the conversation.
"Why did you duct tape Joe?" I could hear my evil twin yelling.
"Uhh, no reason" Maurice wouldn't give him a straight answer.
"What happened!"
"He, he took my phone and called someone" Maurice admitted.
"What! Are you kidding me!?" Tom yelled.
"My phone fell out of my pocket, I'm, I'm sorry"
"Who did he call?!"
"I, I'm not sure, Joe didn't say"
"Unbelievable! Absolutely unacceptable Maurice! I thought you were smarter than this!" Tom was getting angry.
"I'm sorry, it won't happen again"
"No, I know it won't"
"What does that mean?" Tom didn't answer right away. Then, all I heard was a single gunshot continued by a body slam on the floor.
"You have to do what you have to do" My evil twin muttered to himself. Did he just kill Maurice? My heart started to beat very fast as panic set in.
"See that dear brother" Tom knelt down besides me, I could hear him breathing. I slowly opened my eyes to meet his angry gaze.
"I just killed him and it's all your fault" I stared at Tom, "I'll deal with you later. I have a date with Vanessa in a half hour. I'll be back in a couple of hours, then I might have to move you"...
