Another chapter! Beware of this one…has lots of strong themes…anyway on with the series…

Two Words to Break:

Two words. Two words and that's all it took for Kendall to break. Her eyes were watery, her heart pounding, yet it felt like it dropped and her body was like a weight. Her mind was racing and though she had so many thoughts and questions, the only logical thing to her, was for her to leave. Leave reality, leave fantasy, leave everything… The seconds which felt like hours after she found out, she left the room. Everything in this world was oblivious to her. She ran out the door going to the one place she knew all too well.

"Kendall!" Linnie yelled not able to catch her sister. Linnie was in the front yard. "Kendall!" Everyone came out of Kick's house, running towards her.

"What happened?" Mrs. Buttowski asked. Linnie just broke down, shaking her head.

"I don't know…. I just don't know…" Mrs. Buttowski held her, glancing at the kids. Kick and Brianna nodded, however Jackie was first to take off to find Kendall, paying no mind to the others. Kendall was her best friend, she was her family. And Kendall was everything to Jackie. This time, no one was going to hold her back from finding her best friend. The others followed. When Jackie glanced at Dead Man's Drop, no one was there. She was breathing hard, trying to catch her breath. Kendall wasn't at Dead Man's Drop.

"Where is she?" Jackie questioned out loud.

"What other place could she have gone to?" Mouth looked at the others. Kick's eyes widened in realization, yet Jackie was already a step ahead. She ran in the direction of Widow's Maker Peak. Kick and the others following.

(**)

I'm used to running away. I guess I'm good at that too. A natural habit. I looked over the edge of Widow Maker's Peak. My heart was pounding, my face wet. I was breathing so hard. I felt the weather change, the sprinkles starting to fall. I looked up, holding my hand out to feel the drops. I looked down at my semi opened hand, then back to the ledge.

"Kendall!" Jackie called behind her. She didn't turn around. "Kendall don't jump!" Jackie pleaded trying to get closer.

"Don't come closer…" Kendall spoke her eyes glancing behind her. Jackie stopped. The others were behind her now.

"Kendall get away from the ledge." Nicolette was concerned.

"Please Kendall…" Brianna started to get watery eyes.

"Don't do this…Kendall please…let us help you." Loraina was getting emotional too.

"Kendall…what happened…?" Kick asked trying to step closer, but stopped when she spoke.

"What does it matter? It's my fault anyway. I can't change it…. I can't bring her back… she's gone forever, and it's all my fault…" Kendall was crying, still turned towards the edge. Jackie started to come closer, slowly.

"Kendall who's gone? ... What happened?" Jackie was almost behind her. Kendall's hands were in fists, shaking at her sides. She turned her head and looked at Jackie, who was really worried.

"Jackie…my mom is dead… she's gone, and it's all my fault…" She cried, hugging onto Jackie as she broke down. Jackie held her, as they were on the ground, tightly, wanting to comfort her. Kick glanced at Brianna and the others; Brianna, Loraina, and Nicolette had their hands over their mouths. Gunther was even getting teary eyed. Kick glanced back at Kendall and Jackie. She was completely broken now.

The group brought Kendall home. Jackie stayed with her for a bit that night, but in the early morning Kendall and Linnie had to leave to go deal with details regarding their mother's funeral. They planned the funeral for that Saturday, and in turned had all the details settled. Kendall the entire time was mentally not there, though. She was awake and unconscious at the same time. Her world had dropped and shattered, and now she didn't know how to build it back. She would no longer be the same girl that she used to be.

To Be Continued…

So yeah…well then…I warned you guys it was going to get really serious…and well yeah…let's just say I connected this a bit to my own life when I wrote the next few chapters, including this one….
