It had been three weeks since I had arrived in Maxville and started school at Sky High. The days went by uneventful as we went to school 'Learning to Grow and Develop Our Powers' at least that's how they put. I met Warren a few days after I came to Sky High since he had got suspended a couple days before for trying to roast someone alive. But even though after that I found that he was a pretty nice guy I got along better with him and Magenta then the others since they were a little bit to preppy and overly happy if you ask me. Though I still hung out with them, though Mage and Warren were easier to hang out with since when I was in a bad mood their personalities didn't grain on my nerves. But sadly during those three weeks I had not seen or had contact with Lash. Sure I'd seen him around school but neither of us made any attempt to talk or acknowledge each other since my friends hated him and I knew they would like it if I started to be all buddy buddy with him. A part of me didn't care what they thought but another part of me a much larger part of me didn't want to screw up the friendships with the only people that made an attempt when I first came to make friends with me. I had given up hope of ever talking to him again but that all changed in a matter of days.

It was all over the new that morning a massive break out of prisoners from the Maxville State Penitentiary for Super Villains. Some of the Villains that ended up escaping were Warren's dad and Royal Pain and her cronies from the Homecoming Disaster minus Lash of course. The break out was the shot that was heard round the super world and everyone was wondering what would happen next or more importantly who had help them escape. Everyone had their own suspicions but most believed that Lash was the one that did it and that caused a whole lot of up roar on the grounds of Sky High so much in fact that Will swore that he was going to kill him and almost succeeded if Warren and I hadn't drag him off Lash. Will got sent home but Lash, well he disappeared and nobody knew where he went. Know one except me that is, I was there when the whole fight broke out and I was also the one of the people that broke the fight up. Since Warren and I were the only ones powerful enough not only to take one of Will's punches but had powers strong enough to disable him. Warren tried to grab Will and talk some sense into him but only received a punch to the gut that sent him flying threw a wall. While Warren was recovering I had to take matters into my own hands. I wasn't worried about hurting Will since my power had no last effect when used properly where as Warren's would've burned him to a crisp. But still I wanted to give him a chance to stop.

"Will, I'm giving you a chance please just leave this be you can't do this when theirs no solid evidences that Lash did it. Put him down and walk away, now."

"Sorry Suze, but he did it I know he did and know he'll pay." He said as he pulled back his fist. I watched as Lash squeezed his eyes shut and prepared for the blow. I couldn't take it anymore and soon my had where surrounded by purple energy.

"Will, I didn't want to do this, but you left me with no other choice."

Will turned around probably planning to blow me through the wall like he did Warren but all he got was a ball of energy that hit him in the stomach blowing him into the wall making a large dent. Will started to whither on the floor in pain I turned to find a crowd of people staring at me but no Lash. I looked around the whole cafeteria and he was no where to be found. I looked down at my feet and walked out of the room looking for him just wanting to know if he was okay. I ran down the hall to the deserted classroom where he had took me three weeks before to recover from my head injury. I stood and stared at the door for a long time before I finally turned the door knob and walked in making sure to close the door behind me. I looked around the room and through the light that the blinds let in I saw a body sitting in the corner slouched over and leaning against the wall. I walked over to the body and sat down next to it.

"Thought I'd find you here." I said as I looked over at him and found that he looked like crap. His face was bloody from various cuts that were scattered on his face. His knuckles were bruised and spilt open. His nose was bleeding and possibly broken. As I looked at him he forced a smile.

"Where else would I be I doubt the dolt would ever find me here. Nobody knows about this place other than the staff and well you. God first chance anyone gets they blame me. I swear to you Suze I didn't do it I would never help them, not again."

"I believe you Lash it's just that not many people feel the same as I do. I hate to ask you this but do you have any idea who would try to break them out I mean they arrested all of the people that were involved in Homecoming right?"

"Yeah they did it could've been someone else I just don't know who. But knowing Royal Pain she'll go into hiding and from a plan then she'll come back for revenge and the first place she'll go is to Sky High and try to hurt Stronghold and all his friends. I'm betting she'll same me for last give me the worst."

"Why would she do that?"

"She told me when they let me out that she would contact me when she was ready to hatch her plan. A few days ago she sent me a letter say she's ready I didn't think anything of it just put it aside did nothing with it I didn't think that she would get someone else to do it for her. Unless…" I watched as he pulled out his cell phone and scrolled down to the name Speed.

"Lash what are you doing?"

"Calling everyone involved in Homecoming till I find out who was released a couple days before the break in. Starting with my ol' partner in crime." I listened as the phone rang a couple of times before someone finally answered with the one word of Yo. "Hey Speed, guess who it is. Pause. Yep it's me how's life as a fugitive. Another pause. That good huh, well I was just wondering who all broke you guys out." There was a pause and some screaming in the background and then a woman's voice came on.

"Listen here you little shit, I'm on to you Lash I know you're playing for the good guys know so don't call here ever again or you're little friend will disappear and her body will turn up in little bits now you don't want that do you?"

"Gwen if you hurt her I'll…"

"You'll do what Lash unlike you I have allies with useful powers and can hurt you immensely and besides nobody believes you in that you're innocent. No they won't know the truth till my master plan is finished and you, Stronghold and all his friends are dead. Good bye Lash and enjoy you're life while you still have it." Then she hung up laughing evilly. I looked at Lash as he watched his phone and sighed.

"Well that didn't get us anywhere now did it. No it just confirmed what I had previously thought she wants revenge and knowing Gwen she'll get impatience."

"Lash, who was she talking about?" I looked at him a little worried as he paused and stared down at the ground.

"You, and I think you should get going don't want you're precious little friends to worry now would we?"

"Hey don't you want me to help get you cleaned up I mean I can take care of that for you."

"No No I'm fine just go Suze, please."

"But Lash."

"Suze, just go."

When Lash said that I just slowly nodded my head and walked out the door looking over my shoulder once only to get a reassuring smile from him. I leaned my head against the door listening to him shuffle around every once in a while wincing in pain. I stood their for a good five minutes silently arguing with myself whether or not to go back in there soon I gave up and walked away. I went to my next class which turned out to be PE I went into the gym and sat next to Mage she looked at me and I forced a smile I was still a little shaken from the whole thing with Lash I mean not only the fact that he looked so broken but Gwen's voice on the phone had really creeped me out. Mage continued to look at me till I told her that I would tell her later she kept looking at me for a second longer before turning her attention back to Save the Citizen. But as soon as PE was over she pulled me aside and dragged me into a vacant room that I knew all too well.

An: Thanks to all who review and really I don't know about this chapter, is it to soon for the break out thing. Well let me know. See ya.
