Thank you for all of the reviews. It really inspires me.


"Where's Zoe?" Shane barged into the math class. "Where's Zoe Plummer?"

The math teacher looked up, startled. "Miss Plummer just asked to go the restroom," he said in a crisp voice. "Why, do you need her?"

"Oh darn it," Shane yelled. He pointed at a random girl. "You, come with me."

Little did he know that the girl he had chosen was Sonya Smithenson, Zoe's worst enemy.


Peter looked up from playing with Bobby. Something wasn't right. He could feel it. He just didn't know what it was.
"You," Shane yelled, pointing at Sonya. "Go in the bathroom and see if Zoe Plummer's in there."

Sonya walked in. She walked out. "No."

Shane was so worried, he didn't notice the evil glare in her eyes, or the slow, sly smile that pulled at her lips.


Peter started to cry.

The teacher, Miss Christie, a young woman, came to him. "Peter," she asked quietly. "What's the matter?"

"Sethzoe," were the mumbled words that came from him.

Miss Christie, thinking that there was nothing wrong, wiped his tears, and sent him back to play with Bobby.

Peter kept on crying, deep inside. Something was wrong. And he didn't know what. Seth. Zoe.

He could feel it. Something was happening to Zoe. It was dark, for her. Silence. Stillness, that scared him in a way.

Seth. He was hurt. Peter could feel the intense pain. Something was happening.


Seth slowly opened his eyes. He was on his back. That was weird. Trying to move his head, he felt a sharp pain. Could he move anything? He tried to turn. What was going on?

Then he saw an all too familiar face in front of him. "Hello Sleeping Beauty," Robert growled. "You ready? Because I don't think this is going to be that fun."

"This isn't funny!" Seth howled.

"Who said anything about it being funny?" Robert whispered in a dangerous voice. He gestured to his friends.

Seth glanced at them. Baseball bats, chains, belts.

He realized that this wasn't funny at all.
