Chapter twenty-four: Phone calls
Disc: FOUR AND A HALF-DAY WEEKEND! Lotr not mine.
A/N: Sorry, would have updated yesterday but it wouldn't let me sign in for some reason. Thank goodness for snow! Four and a half-day weekend. The half's in there b/c last Friday we got to leave early b/c of the weather .and some idiot who was smoking in the bathroom caught the school on fire. Oh well.
They had been quiet most of the trip thus far. Holly rowed without sign of tiring while Merry and Tricia sat in silence thinking to themselves. Rachel was drawing and talking to Pippin.
"Holly." Tricia said suddenly.
"Yeah?"
"What happens if we don't make it home?"
".I don't know. Find a place to live here I guess. Though...I do miss everyone back home...a lot." The blonde replied. "Do you think they're worried about us? Or do you think they've already declared us dead?"
"I dunno. Maybe. If they didn't find bodies, which they wouldn't have, then they probably thought that we died on impact." Tricia replied. The two girls looked at each other sadly, and then Holly remembered something.
"Rachel! Do you have your cell phone?" Holly asked her friend.
"I think so.why?" The younger girl said.
"Try using it. It's worth a shot."
Rachel nodded and pulled out her cell phone. She dialed her home number and sat in shock as it rang. Someone picked up.
"Who is this?" they asked,
"Hello!?" Rachel said.
"Who is this?" The person on the other line said again. It was then that Rachel realized that the person on the other end was not her parents. The voice she heard was dark and sent a chill throughout her body to hear. She hung up quickly and almost threw the phone away from her.
"Rachel! What's wrong?" Tricia asked.
"I'll tell you later." Rachel replied as her face went pale.
