(Zack's POV)

I grabbed some money and left a note for mom. The first place I looked was the first place that came to mind. The old treehouse. When we first moved to the hotel Cody and I were walking through the woods and we came upon a treehouse. When we went inside it needed a lot of help. We decided to fix it up but we promised to keep it our sercet. We couldn't tell anyone.

In the dark
In the darkness you will find
Dirty little secrets we all hide
Cause' we all have a darker side
A place we keep where no one else will find

After being in that treehouse I remembered all the secrets Cody and I shared. We told each other everything. I miss those days. Just to have someone there to help you out, someone you could trust, someone that was there this whole time and you never appreciated them. Someone who understood you. That no matter what you did or what you said will always be there. But then they leave and you feel like someone has just ripped out a part of you. Someone who you wish was still here.


Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
But I will stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we'll fight again, fight again

I decided to sleep in the treehouse that night. I went to the old bedroom in the back. It wasn't that big, but it'll do. I was looking around for a blanket and pillow or something, when I came across a blue cloth stuffed inside the small cramped closet. Blankie. There right in front of me was blankie. He had to have been here. He had to be here. He would never leave blankie behind. Never.


In the back, in the closets of your mind
Thats where skeletons and dirty secrets hide
And I'll rip out my insides
And leave them on display for you tonight

"Cody?" I yelled. Nothing. "Cody?" I yelled again. Still nothing. I huged the blanket tight and started to cry. What if something happen to him? What if he's gone? I cried myself to sleep as the rain poured from the sky.


Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
But I will stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we'll fight again, fight again
(fight again, fight again)…

That morning I thought of mom. I wondered how she was feeling right now with both her boys gone. I also thought about how I was going to find Cody. I had no idea where he could be. I wondered if Cody had taken money to live off of until someone finds him or until he decides to come home. What if Cody went home after I left and I'm just wasting my time seaching for him. I didn't know if I was going to keep going or go home. Or maybe I could call mom and see how she's doing and see if Cody's back. But I don't know. I just don't know anymore. I need that part of me back.


All my life I hide my secrets away,
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark
We all try to hide our secrets away,
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark

I got up and and went down the treehouse steps. As I turned around to go off and I ran into someone. I looked up and and saw my dad. He was looking up at the treehouse and he started to talk.

"You and your brother have done nothing but cause trouble." He paused and looked down at me.

"I'm really getting tired of you making my life hard to live, the reason why I left was to get away from you two." He paused again.

"I never did plan to get rid or kill you or your brother, but now that one is out of the way I might as well get rid of the other."

My heart was beating faster than ever.

"I thought you loved us, how could you..." He cut me off. "I never loved you or your brother! I didn't want to have you I wanted to put you up for adoption, but your mother couldn't she loved you to much!" He screamed.

I tried to get away but he grabbed my wrists. He must of knocked me out because the last thing I remember was yelling for Cody.


Stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we'll fight again, fight again
Fight again
Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
And that's ok
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
Fight again


When I opened my eyes I saw nothing but black. "Zack?" Someone asked.

"Cody? Is that you?" It was silent for a few moments.

"No Zack." The voice said.

"It's your loving father."

The lights came on and I saw my dad with a gun in his hands, the gun was aimed right at Cody.
