I curled upagainst the rock of the swimming hole. I was in the large rock in the middle of the water, there could be no surprise entrances here.

I know they got Dodger. Both bodies are gone. No evidence except for the blood scrap, our word, and the proof stored on Maxell. Be careful.

Burn after reading.

I tored the paper to shreds. I was making dinky pieces of confetti as I pondered what he'd said.

We still didn't know what they were after. There were a million things. Could they be trying to study us all? Find ID for later? Or...

"Hey Silver."

I whirled around and looked toward shore.

What the heck!

Dusk was wading into the water.

"Dusk?" I yelled.

"I finished the mission in Argentina! I'm Back!" She grinned brightly. Her hair shone in the warm sun.

"Wow!" I forced a big smile. "I'm so glad you're back! I've missed you!" And I had no one to talk about Midnight Sky with."

I was testing her, I had too.

"I know! I can't belive how crazy you are about him. Did you guys ever sneak out after hours?" She elbowed me happilly.

It's not her...

I tilted my head and grinned. "Yeah! We got caught, but we're not in trouble."

"Awesome."

Dodger appeared over the ridge. "Hey! Dusk! Silver!" He waved.

"Hey Dodger!" I called. I looked at Dusk. "I bet you locked having your best friend with you."

She nodded.

Thoughts whirled around my mind, swirling and bubbling with confusion.

AN. Have I redeemed myself? Another twist to the story. It's VERY short chappy I know, but it's almost the end and I'm trying to sort out a few kinks in my climax! I'll try and update more soon!

R/R!
