A/n: yay ppl like my story. Just a note. I AM a girl... not a guy... to end all
debates.
Chapter 3: I will decide on a title later ok.
Josie was in a huge room. About 5 times as tall as she was and the football team could play in here had it not been so dilapidated. Tiles were hanging from the ceiling hovering dangerously above her heads. Walls were scorched and computers were all knocked over. Josie shuddered she had a strong feeling of de ja vu. She knew why. This was the place she'd rescued Corrine from. On her first day at Blake Holsey. She'd been happy then hadn't she? Without Vaughn. She sighed and continued. She took one look at the bust security lock and knew there was no need to crack any secret codes. She pressed on the door and it opened. She fell onto a platform. The gyroscope wasn't spinning and space and all the planets hung suspended in mid air she stared into the stars. They were so close. How come there was still enough oxygen to live. She didn't know.
She suddenly tripped and fell. She stood up to find out what she'd tripped over and found it was a hole. She stood back. She saw 6ft words were carved into the floor. She began to read them. "When things go wrong it's easy to lose heart but you'll find the answer, right back at the start, you're nearly there Josie be prepared For what lies ahead If it's too much to take There's an awful lot at stake Friends are friends until the end But there's someone there for even longer, your search continues south.' South, but that meant to go back through the door. Back where she'd started. She copied it down into her notebook. Wait a minute. Josie be prepared? That meant whoever wrote this... they knew she was here. Were they watching her. Ok this was getting creepy.
No sooner had she gone than the Janitor came and rolled up the false layer of concrete with words on and tossed it onto his shoulder. He walked out whistling. [lol]
Josie went out the front door miraculously not meeting with Corrine and co on the way. She wandered outside and looked around. On a pavestone were words scratched into them. She had to get down on bended needs to write this one down.
"She's not here guys." Marshall said. He grabbed Corrine's hand to stop her going any further. "If you step into that water the sparks will electrocute you, you'll be dead before tea time." He said. Corrine blushed at the contact from Marshall. He pulled her back. "We've searched everywhere she's not here." "She has to be." Said Lucas who knew Josie well enough. Vaughn however seemed to have his own ideas on where she was. He wandered off. "Where are you going?" asked Corrine. "Oh that's right, chicken out now!" Marshall argued. "We all want to find Josie right?" he asked. "Well, yeah but..." "Then follow me." He said.
Josie stared hard at the words. 'The stone is covered in undergrowth Just look a little harder Jose. When you found what you're looking for Beware on getting more than you bargained for.' It was a shorter note than the last ones. She began searching through the undergrowth quite unsure of what she was looking for. She knew that when she found it she'd know.
Vaughn stared as he watched Josie clamber off the ground and begin searching in the bushes. He knew what she was going to find. He hung his head. He sighed heavily. He crossed over and pulled back a bush so she was revealed. "I thought I'd find you here." He said. She didn't say anything. He stepped forward bent down and pulled a huge vine of Ivy down. Josie looked curiously as he revealed a large stone. On it were the words. "Sarah Pearson beloved wife and mother. We'll miss you Sarah." Josie looked really shocked. "Vaughn I'm so sorry..." He shrugged. And pulled back another vine. Josie let out a cry of horror as he revealed another grave. This time it read "Michael Trent. Devoted husband and loving father." The date was exactly 15 years ago. That meant her dad worked for Pearadyne. Josie shook her head.
"No. I know my mum had... I know she used to work at Pearadyne but... she told me he'd come back... she promised." She stared at Vaughn and then at her friends, then at the grave. "You knew..." she said. "You knew all this time and you never told me... when I talked about my dada maybe coming home for Christmas you KNEW?" she fumed at him. Vaughn bit his lip. "Trent's a common name..." "That's bull!" she snapped. She traced the letters of her fathers name on the stone. "Josie... I didn't want to hurt you." "I think you've hurt her enough already." Said Lucas stepping between them. "Josie I understand you want to stay but we HAVE to get back, it's getting dark." "NO!" she said suddenly. She stood. Up. "You just don't get it do you. I don't want to come back. 'm never going back to Blake Holsey!" she screamed and ran off.
Lucas, Marshall and Corrine looked at Vaughn. "Don't try to pin this on me," "You never told her..." Corrine said. "Guys, I..." "Leave him. He's not worth it..." Marshall said. He was still pretty peeved. "Listen I know you guys don't want to leave her..." "We can't!" Lucas said as though scalded. "But I think we should go back to the school and report her missing..." "We can't leave Josie alone, she'll get herself killed." Vaughn said. "Hey this is Josie we're talking about here, I'm with Marshall it's better that we don't all rush straight off into danger we have to go back to school." "I'm not leaving her!" Lucas said. "Neither am I!" Vaughn said. Partially because of the fact he wanted her safe [but he knew deep down she'd be ok] but he mainly didn't want Josie alone with Lucas. [hehe would you?]
Josie sat in the rapidly increasing dark. She sat on top of a tree stump. Her ankle was swollen and bleeding. 'accident prone Josie' she knew she'd get no further before morning. She sighed.
"Well ok Corrine and I will head back and you and Vaughn go find Josie ok..." Marshall said. "Right." Vaughn and Lucas headed off in the vague direction that Josie went. "One problem." Corrine said. "Er... what?" "Which way is back?" Marshall stared ahead. But all he could see was trees, trees and more trees.
Lucas wandered around not exactly sticking with Vaughn which wasn't the plan. "She went this way." Vaughn said. "An how do you know that?" "The grass stalks are all bent that way and by the looks of it she tripped." Lucas looked put out at Vaughn's tracking skills. "Yeah..." he said. They walked for what seemed like an hour before coming to a clearing where a red headed girl was asleep sprawled across a large tree trunk.
Vaughn stepped over and placed his jacket around her. "What're you doing... we have to head back to school." "And how exactly. It's pitch black and we have no clue where we're going so I say we wait until tomorrow when it's light." "She'll do a runner..." "She'll be running nowhere on that ankle Lucas..." "What do you.." he leaned down and looked at Josie's ankle. "Yeah I thought so, it's broken. She can't run away from us now. I suggest you get some sleep." Lucas nodded. He hated to admit it. He was right. Vaughn stayed up all night waiting for her to wake up.
