Disclaimer: If I owned BHH, it would have ended with Victor being bad muhhahahaha, VJ, MC, and Lucas being alone, 'cause I don't like him, as you'll soon find out. no offense to Lucas fans But, I may change my mind... So, as it is, don't own 'em.

Summary: Five years after Conclusions, the Science Club bumps into each other again. They were wrong about Victor...

Corrine sat on the bed, thinking things over. She was in a dorm room, that, if she remembered right, was where her old dorm was. SPA had larger, more modern dorms than Blake Holsey had, but the essence was still there. She smiled, realizing suddenly that she was on Josie's side. That girl had been so messy. She was quickly caught up in a flashback... The first day that they realized Josie was missing...

Corrine awoke. Josie wasn't in bed. At first, she dismissed it as the girl getting up early (for once) but then she remembered last night's conversation. "Guys!" She yelled, running through the halls in her pajamas and knocking on the others' dorm room doors. Vaughn was the first to actually get out. She hated this, not wanting to break it to him. "Corrine," He groaned, still in boxers and a t-shirt, "What's the problem?" She shook her head. "I think... I think Josie went through the wormhole." That woke him up.

"I don't get it," Lucas said, "Why didn't she listen to us?" Vaughn rolled his eyes. "This is Josie. She always does her own thing." It was later on in the day, and the Science Club was discussing Josie's disappearence. Luckily, everyone else thought she was skipping class again. "We've got to go through," Lucas said, getting up, but Marshall held him back. "Look," He leveled eyes with his friend, "You can't go crazy over this. We are all worried about Josie. But you may go insane if you keep on like this." He was dead serious. Vaughn sighed and lay his head on the table. That's when Durst walked in. Her face was covered with worry. "Have any of you seen Josie Trent today?" She asked. "Y-" They all began, but Z cut them off. "It'll be better for her if we tell the truth." "Josie's... gone." Corrine sighed, "We have no idea where she went."

Wow. That had been one of the worst days of Corrine's life. She got up, and began to hobble toward the door, when a figure blocked her path. He was wearing a long, black, cloak, and a hood. Slowly, he removed it, reavealing his identity. Tyler. Corrine gave a yelp, awful memories clouding her mind. "Please don't hurt me again," She wimpered, cowering. He laughed, a terrible, throaty sound. "I won't," He said, "For now. You aren't my target." His eyes narrowed even more than they already were. "Get your friends and yourself out of here. Sarah Pearson Academy is a dangerous place, and my master wants you to stay away. Or we will have to force you." He took a device that was much like the clone's and turned. But before he disappeared, he turned his head and added, "By the way. You should keep an eye on Josie and Vaughn. I have a feeling they aren't at their best right now." With that, he vanished. And Corrine passed out.

Lucas had a thought (A/N: amazing, isn't it?). Where was the old gravity sensor? He had never taken it home... Suddenly, a floorboard creaked. He bent down, and began to pull. Finally, it opened, reavealing the long lost gravity sensor. "Well," He muttered, pulling it out, "That may explain the cafeteria..."

Josie looked around. Her old room! And standing in front of her bed, a stunned look on his face, was her Vaughn. Not my Vaughn, she thought to herself, just Vaughn from my time. "Josie!" He cried, hugging her. They stayed that way for a moment before awkwardly breaking apart. "Where were you?" He asked. "I was... well, a bit earlier than you, it looks." She said, not wanting to mention what she saw. "But, look. The wormhole closed again. We have to wait." Vaughn got a look on his face. "Well, we might as well look around." "Fine," Josie agreed after a moment. "But we can not be seen, or separated."

The halls were near empty, so it was obvious that the school day was over. The two walked toward the Science Club room. "We have to do this," They heard Josie say. Vaughn opened the door, and they peeked in. There was the gang, speaking of black holes. "Vaughn, we should go," Josie whispered, but just as they were turning, they head a voice. "What the... Stop!"
