( scene: Shelby, Scott,Auggie,Juliet,Peter,Sophie,Ezra and Daisy are all sitting in an empty lodge. Alexia walks in)

Alexia: Hi, why'd you wanna see me?
Peter: Sit down, Alex.
( Alexia sits down in an empty chair facing everybody)
Peter: Alex, these are the old cliffhangers. You met them this morning. Anyway they're gonna talk to you about their problems and how they were cured.
( Peter sits down beside Sophie)
Juliet: Hi, I'm Juliet. I came to Horizan because I was anerexic and a cutter. I wanted to be perfect for my mother. At first I didn't trust Peter. But when I finally did I found out he helps alot.
Auggie: Hi I'm Auggie. I came to Horizan because it was either here or Juvi. I was street fighter influenced by my big brother. I finally stopped fighting when I told my brother no more.
Ezra: Hi I'm Ezra. I came here because I was on drugs.
( Alexia stiffened)
Ezra: My parents adopted me because they thought a child would put their marriage back together in the end it just hurt me. I finally decided to stop being put in the middle because of Peter.
Daisy: I'm Daisy. I came here because my father abused me and my parents were acholics. One night I hit my father over the head with a baseball bat. I hid behind Goth, it was my mask. Peter helped me get my mask off.
Scott: I'm Scott. My stepmother molested me and that's why I was here. I did drugs bad. I didn't let Peter in at first, it wasn't until I told Shelby that I finally I guess as Peter says beat my demons.
Shelby: I'm Shelby. I came to Horizan because I was runaway like you. Except I sold myself on the streets. I did drugs, I couldn't go back home. That was where my stepfather lived and he molested me. When I told Peter he didn't judge me, I hid behind sarcasim and Peter helped me.
( Everybody looks at Alexia.)
Alexia: Are we done now?
Peter: No. Alex, didn't feel anything when these people told you their story.
Alexia: No.
Sophie: What about when Shelby said she was a prostitute, how'd that make you feel?
Alexia: I felt nothing.
Shelby: That's a first, you don't feel disgusted?
Alexia: No. Because where I come from there are people who do it for crack, for drugs. At least you did it to live.
( Everybody is quiet for a few minutes and Alexia gets up)
Peter: We're not finished yet.
( music starts playing in the background)
( Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe)
Alexia: Well I don't care to hear no more of it. I don't care to hear how they survived, cause none of them have went through what I have. Yeah they've been through hurt and pain, but we all have, that's part of life. Or how they took off their mask and fought their demons. I know my demons, Peter.
(In yesterday Suddenly
I'm not half the girl I used to be
There's a shadow hangin' over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly)
Alexia:I know who they are and what they are. I know that I wear mask and I know why. And I know I have walls built up and I know exactly what they are what their from.
(Why he had to go;I don't know
He wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long For yesterday)
Alexia: It's not that I don't know that. It's that their are to many to break down, and their are to many demons to fight, and their are so many masks, water won't wash them all off.
Peter: Alex, if you'd just....
(Why he had to go
I don't know He wouldn't say
I said ... I must 've saidd something wrong
Now I long
For yesterday)
Alexia: Just what, Peter? Trust you, let you in? Huh? Peter, it's like a deisie (sp?) . I know I'm gonna die from it, and I've accepted that. Why can't you? Why can't just accept that YOU can't save the world. That we can't all be saved!! You're not God, Peter. And you can't save us all. Stop trying to fight my demons for me. Because you don't even know what they are and where they're from.
( Alexia turns around and walks out leaving a stunned Peter,Sophie,Shelby,Scott,Auggie, Juliet, Ezra and Daisy)
( I believe

( Scene: Scott,Shelby,Auggie,Juliet, Ezra and Daisy all sit in the lodge)
( song starts playing in background)
(When you're weary, feelin' small
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all.)
Juliet: I can't belive her. I mean we all didn't trust Peter completly but we knew we had him.
Auggie: She doesn't know him.
Shelby: I think it's more of he doesn't know her.
(I'm on your side, Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found. )
**************************************************************************************************************
( scene: Sophie and Peter outside walking)
( Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down. )
Peter: What am I gonna do with her?
Sophie: Peter, why do you care so much?
Peter: What do you mean I care about all my kids.
Sophie: I know that, it's just you seem so determined to save her, more then you have the other kids. Why?
(When you're down and out, when you're on the street
When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you.)
Peter: She's wasn't molested, when we gave her the physical examination she was a virgin. And I can tell she wasn't abused. Her parents seem like great people. Her father's rich so it wasn't money. But the other day at that meeting how she acted toward her father, I've never seen ANYBODY do that. And when I look in her eyes it's NOT like I'm looking at a little lost five year old, like all the other kids. When I look in her eyes all I see is a fighter. I see a person fighting for something, and I want to know what that is. In all my life Soph, I've seen kids scared, hurt, confused. That's how they all were. And Alex is so diffrent. She's the first person I've ever seen not scared of something or someone but of herself. She's the first person I've ever seen that when I look in eyes it's filled with this love that has been givin up. Am I making any sense?
(I'll take your part, Oh when darkness comes
And pain is all around)
Sophie: Yeah.
Peter: I wanna be that person who sees what her father, what Marc and her mother and everybody else don't see. I wanna see that person who is still inside of her. I wanna see the person she's trying to hide. I wanna be that person.
(Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down)

( scene: Alexia out on the docks)
(Sail on children, sail on by
Your time has come to shine, all their dreams are on their way)
Alexia: What am I doing here?
( She looks up at the sky)
Alexia: Why did you bring me here!! Why did you do this to me!! Why me?!? What did I do so wrong!! Why did you choose me!!! WHY!!
( Alexia starts crying)
(See how they shine, Oh when you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind )
Alexia: Why did you choose me?!? Why'd it have to be him?!? Why'd you have to hurt her?!? Why'd you let her ruin it!! Why!!
( Alexia falls to the ground crying; she looks up at the sky and sees a star)
(Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will ease your mind)
Alexia: First star of the night; how you shine so bright. I wish I may; I wish I might; have this wish I wish tonight.
( beat)
(Like a bridge over troubled waters,
I will ease your mind)
Alexia: I wish for 10 minutes. I wish for 10 minutes to forget. To be that little innocent five year old who had the world in her hands. I wish for 10 minutes to forget the hurt and pain. ( a tear falls down her cheek) for 10 minutes.
(I'll ease your mind)
