,,I want to get my antidote now!"-some guy at the end of the line with a metally thing on his head and his face painted with different coloured squires.

,,If you want the antidote, just wait your turn!"-Ebony (turning around to give him a treatening look).

,,On second thought, why would I want the antidote? Rumour has it we don't need it anymore!"-the guy (returning Ebony's look).

,,Don't be stupid, of course you need the antidote! We all need it!"-Ebony.

,,Some kids haven't had the antidote for a while. And guess what . . . They're all fine!"-the guy (this seemed to leave Ebony a bit speechless).

,,Those kids are taking a really big risk! Some people are immume for the virus, that's why they don't get it even without the antidote. But I advise everyone to keep taking the antidote, because it's not very likely that you're one of those few people." (the guy didn't seem totally convinced, but as the crowd got restless and was starting to walk right over him in their attempt to get the antidote, he was forced to go back in line or leave. So he got back in line).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(When it was lunchtime and the queue was gone) ,,That was a really good excuse, how did you come up with it so quick?"-Ebony (a little less hostile than normally).

,,Because I knew something like this would happen, so I just used the excuse Bray used, only a bit . . . more convincing."

,,But in that case, do we need the antidote?"-Ebony.

,,I don't really know, but I believe not. I think we should talk to the others about this."

,,Yeah."-Ebony (deep in thought as we walked up the stairs for lunch to find about everyone sitting in the cafe).

,,That's a new one! Why is everyone here? Is something wrong?"

,,Pride called everyone here."-Patsy.

,,He didn't tell why."-Cloe.

,,Where is Pride?"-Ebony (she was right, he was nowhere to be seen).

,,I believe he went to get Tai-San."-Salene.

,,Pride, what is this about?" (as Pride came into the cafe followed by Tai- San).

,,I have something to tell all of you."-Pride.

,,What is it, Pride?"-Trudy.

,,I didn't want to get Amber and Bray worried, but I think Tai-San was poisoned."-Pride.

,,Poisoned?!"-Salene (the whole group looked worried at Tai-San).

,,You mean when she was 'sick'?"

,,Yes, I gave her some herbs that are used against some of the poisons it could have been and seeing as it worked, I think she was poisoned."-Pride.

,,But how would they get in?"-Trudy.

,,We believe it was one of us."-Tai-San.

,,One of us? But who'd do such a thing?"-Danni (she had calmed down and looked like her normal self again).

,,We should search the rooms!"-Ebony.

,,That won't help, the traces are very hard to find and I don't think whoever did it would be stupid enough to keep them with him."-Pride.

,,Or her."-Trudy (looking at Ebony).

,,Or her (repeating what Trudy had said). We just want to know if any of you have seen something or have a clue as to who did this."-Pride (looking at me).

,,I may know who did it, but I'm not sure. I'll let you know if I find anything out." (looking at Ebony after having said that).

,,Okay, let's get back to work everybody. And if you see anything just tell us."-Danni (everybody left).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i,,So Tai-San was poisoned. Could it be Ebony? I mean, on tv she did, so it's not impossible she's behind this, but why would she do that? She doesn't have any motives now. I don't think she knows the formula, Tai-San would have never told her and nobody else knows yet, not even Pride. And then something else, on tv, if I remember correctly, the poison killed Bob inmediatly, which means this is probably a different poison. And the other one wasn't that hard to find. I guess I should just keep my eyes open. I wish I could remember more about the what happened on tv, but it's all a bit vague. It was a pretty long time ago that they aired it. I just have a bad feeling about this. And then that guy that said we didn't need the antidote anymore. I forgot to mention him! Oh well, it's not that big a deal, Tai-San being poisoned is worse. I'll tell them later. And if we do get an attack because of it, it's not that big a deal. I liked Ebony's speech so much I can repeat it if I want. So that's not really a big problem . . . "/i

,,What are you thinking about?"-Sasha (coming from behind me).

,,Don't sneak up on me like that! You scared me half to dead!" (my heart was still trying to recover from the shock).

,,Sorry, I just couldn't resist. But what were you thinking about?"-Sasha.

,,I was thinking about that poison."

,,Ah, terrible isn't it?"-Sasha.

,,Yeah." (staring into space again).

,,Wanna take Loes for a walk?"-Sasha.

,,Sure!" (the rest of the day we walked trough the city and I forgot about those depressing thoughts).
