Disclaimer: I own no one except Rebecca, Elizabeth, and Cassie. Oh, later there's something in here from a song called, "Do It For Our Country", and that's from the Grease 2 soundtrack.
A/N: What is there? An Elizabeth and Soda fanclub or something? Not that I mind, because they have to be my favorite out of all my couples. But what is it you people are looking for, anyway? I have my ideas, but I want to satisfy everyone that's been asking, so try and give me some ideas and I'll work with that. When I get some ideas, I'll dedicate a whole chapter to those two...
Dedication: To my wonderful friends who dare to push me, and are there when I need them. You guys are the greatest! And to all my wonderful reveiwers. Without you I wouldn't be writing at all.

Chapter 8: Lizzy's News
I had walked Cassie home, and she was about to go inside when I stopped her.
"Cassie, I, um.., I was wondering if you'd like to do something Thursday night?" I asked, a bit fast.
"I'd like that." She replied, smiling. "I really would." She closed the door and I was left to myself again.
When I got to the DX, I was looking for Elizabeth. Soda was inside behind the counter, so I asked him where she was.
"Lizzy? At home, I reckon." He replied. "Why?"
"No reason." But I left soon after. Soda had made the biggest mistake of his life. He had left her alone.
"Lizzy?" I called through the door. I knew she'd yell at me for calling her that, but I wasn't too worried.
I didn't hear any response, so I started searching for her. I knew she wouldn't have left, so she was around somewhere. Or, at least, I hoped.
"Elizabeth, where in the world are you?" I called, and decided on the kitchen. She'd most likely be there.
And I was right. Unfortunatly.
Elizabeth was sitting on the floor, staring at her arm in a intense, freaky way. On closer inspection, there were little dots of blood all over it. In her hand, she held a nail.
"Elizabeth Faygele Brown, what the hell are you doing?" I shouted. She didn't even look up.
"I ought to beat the tar out of you for that!" I hoisted her up and she balanced herself on her small feet. "Tell me, what in the world do you think you're doing?"
"Killing myself slowly." She sniffed, almost inaudible. She burst into sobs, and I knew it was all because of this morning.
"Lizzy, calm down." I murmered, rubbing her back. She stopped slowly, and I wasn't sure whether she was okay or not.
"Two-bit... I don't know what happened this morning..." She whispered.
"Shh, Elizabeth. Just don't think about it." I was mentally trying to figure out when the news came on. I never watched it, so I wouldn't know.
"Two-bit, I'm so scared... I hear voices in my head... telling me what to do... They have such pretty voices, British, I think, and they talk to me constantly..." I shushed her. She was beginning to scare me.
"Elizabeth, do you know what time the news comes on?" I asked her. She blinked, removing her glance from outside the window.
"Right after Soda gets home." She replied, a bit fuzzily. "Why?"
"No reason. Come on," I said, steering her towards the sink. "Let's get you cleaned up."
I left her to washing off the blood in search of band-aids. How hard could it be to find a box of band-aids? Very, let me tell you. I finally found them, and went and helped her bandage up her arm.
"Two-bit," she said slowly almost an hour later.
"Yes?" I replied from my spot in the armchair. Now I knew why Darry loved this thing so much. It was quite comfy.
"What was the name of Soda's girlfriend before me?" I found it a particularly odd question from Elizabeth.
"Sandy." I replied, giving her a searching look. Nothing about her gave away what she was feeling, but I could tell whatever it was, it wasn't good. "Why?"
She sighed. "I saw her this morning. She's back."
