Tobias
((Where have you been?)) I asked Rachel as she walked into the barn.
I stared down at her from the rafters and noticed her shaken expression.
"Um…Jake's," she said distantly, sitting down on a bale of hay, opposite to the one Marco was sitting on.
Cassie studied her from her position near a sick chicken.
"You alright?" she asked.
"Yeah," Rachel said, snapping out of her trance. "What have we got?"
((Usually, Ax would give you the details, but as he refuses to be in this battle at all, I suppose I better lay it down for you,)) I said, not looking away from Rachel. ((The beach party is being held at around about one tomorrow. We all still want to do this?))
"Yeah," Marco said. "I hate to admit it, but I'm kind of missing all the fighting."
"I suppose I'll have to go," Cassie said.
Rachel seemed hesitant, which was a first for her.
((Rachel?)) I asked.
She smiled weakly. "Let's do it."
Author's Note Short chapter I know! Couldn't (and wouldn't) think of anything else! Oh, and just so you know Marco was being sarcastic when he said he's not Jake's friend! I mustn't have written that part right! Sorry! Thanks to all my reviewers!
