A/N:  will ppl PLEASE answer my question, *****************DO YOU WANT A SUZE & PAUL PAIRING OR A SUZE & JESSE PAIRING???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!***************

************************************************************************

another A/N:  the earlier chapters look shorter than they really are because the supposed new paragraphs were all scrunched up into just two paragraphs.

Disclaimer:  I don't own anything but the plot; I don't own the characters, most of the setting, characteristics of ppl, etc.

You may be wondering HOW it was far worse.  I don't blame you.  For starters, I thought that Father Dom. would still be at my side to help me fight Michael.  And secondly, I thought that I would still have a school…..

Yup, that's right, my school got destroyed by Michael overnight, don't ask me how, but this made Heather's cutting off the head of the school founder's statue and the other things she did to the school look like nothing. 

 The school lay in ruins and I could still see a thin trickle of smoke rising into the beautiful sky, a painful contrast to the wonderful view and the untouched look of the buildings next door.  I walked closer until I heard a voice talking to someone who I just couldn't see behind a large van. 

"-impossible for this school to be in such ruins while the buildings nearby are intact without help from the firemen, but they say that they didn't come anywhere near this place so either it was a very well done sabotage to the school, or there is a god after all," proclaimed a harsh sounding voice.

I snorted to myself, or maybe Michael was here…..I realized that I needed to find and talk to Father Dom., and soon, who knows what else Michael would do, he might even…..

Wait, was that his voice I heard, then why is it so pain filled…..

"well, I don't think it matters all that much, it is lucky that Susann-I mean no one was there while it happened, now, would you please help me find that young girl I was talking about?"  It was Father Dom, and he sounded a tad sheepish, I don't blame him, after all, he had nearly told that person my name!  Think about what would have happened then! 

I rushed over to the other side of the van just to notice that he wasn't there, that was when I realized that this van was an ambulance…..

I rushed in shouting, "Father Dom!  Are you okay?"

I heard him chuckle and saw him smile wryly as I threw open the doors, finding out just how un-okay he was…..

(A/N:  this would make a very very nice cliffie, but I am not THAT evil….. I have a duty to my reviewers, thanx everyone who reviewed, but I can't thank you one by one like I would like to cuz I am on the wrong computer, no internet access, can't check on who reviewed)

He was lying on a stretcher one arm and leg obviously broken, no doubt broken ribs, a deep gash on the side of his head, and a heavy bandage on the unbroken arm that was starting to leak blood.  I was speechless in shock, I couldn't believe what had happened to him, I had a hunch who did this though, and got ready to kill Michael.  I shouted at him and the policeman right next to him, "W-w-why isn't he at the hospital right now??!!  Can't you see he really need medical care????!!!!!!"

Father Dom soothingly cut short my tirade, speaking in little more than a whisper, "Susannah, you must leave NOW, don't go to the school alone, it is too dangerous, stay away from anywhere that HE, you know who HE is, I just don't want our charming policeman friend to know what I am talking about-" (the policeman gave us an odd look, like it was all OUR fault that the school was in ruins and Father D. nearly dead and moved to interrupt Father D. so I raised a hand to cut him off) "-will know to find you.  Seek help, Susannah, this is a battle you cannot fight alone."  With that his eyes closed, and he went unconscious.   I was pushed out of the ambulance as it rushed to the hospital, and for a moment stood in a daze.  Then I turned around to go home for my ghost busting kit.

Then, after I turned around, I screamed.  It was him.

A/N:  evil cliffie!  Lol, I love doing that, REVIEW!!!!!  And tell me whether you want a s/p or a s/j fanfic, I can't update until ppl tell me that, the story is just meaningless!  Next chapter, if ppl review and tell me s/j or s/p, will be longer…..
