Sam had gotten pretty depressed after Marie joined Robbie; Erik did his best to cheer her up. When Mrs. Peck's class came, it was pure hell for everyone. Mrs. Peck wasn't feeling well, so she took it out on everyone by giving them and extra assignment along with his or her project.
"CLASS" she shrieked "due to your terrible behavior, your extra credit assignment will now be mandatory". The whole class groaned, the extra credit was to find out what happened to them in there lifetime, whether they got married and had 4 kids or were put to death for murder.
"Sam, would you come with me to the Library after classes today?" Erik whispered to her when Mrs. Peck's back was turned. Sam nodded with a grim frown, now Erik was frightened why was she so grim. The bell rang and Erik walked Sam to her next class, actually to Mr. Carriers class; she still had to practice 24/7. As soon as Erik knew Sam was safe inside Mr. Carriers class, he immediately went to find Nadir. He found him and pulled him into the boys' bathroom, just as the bell rang for class to begin.
"ERIK! What are you doing, now I'm late" Nadir whispered making sure no passing teacher could hear them.
"I need your help" Erik said simply.
"This better be good" Nadir mumbled.
"Okay, this is hard to say but I trust you" Erik started "I think I'm in love with some one".
"Alright so what's wrong with Sam now?" Nadir smiled.
"How did you know?" Erik said amazed.
"It's not hard to figure out, I mean the way you stick to her means something," Nadir said with an even bigger smile.
"Well she is really depressed, and I don't know why?" Erik said "I know she just lost her best friend to that flop Robbie, but there has to be something more".
"I think I can help with this one" Nadir said and they ran out of the bathroom.
"You want me to what?" the girl with red hair screamed.
"Caroline, please Erik needs to know" Nadir said.
"Well I can tell you all of that now," Caroline said.
"What's going on?" Erik shouted.
"Well no need to be rude, Cristen and Marie are killing her, literally" Caroline said.
"What do you mean?" Erik said now losing what little color he had in his face.
"She hasn't taken those pills she has in 2 days, Robbie took them but I don't know why" Caroline confessed.
"He's going to kill her!" Erik screamed.
"He is killing her, she can't live without those pills" Nadir said.
"Well even better news, he's forcing her to do something today in the library after school and she knows if she doesn't go she will die" Caroline said.
"Caroline you do not know how much I like you at this point" Erik said with a smile.
"Yaya just go out there and save your girl" she smiled and went back to reading.
Sam thought she was going to keel over and die right then and there, Robbie had told her to meet him in the library. She just hoped Erik would come to help her out with this, she wasn't feeling too well and could barely stand. Suddenly Robbie grabbed her from behind; she was so weak she couldn't fight against him.
"So are you ready to cooperate?" Robbie whispered to her.
"No I just came to tell you go to hell" Sam whispered fiercely.
"Wrong answer" Robbie hissed and dropped Sam and she landed with a thump on the cold tile floor.
"Hey get away from her" Erik said giving Robbie a good slam in the jaw. Nadir, determined to help his friend, picked up Sam and dragged her away and this wasn't easy. You see Nadir was equally matched when it came to fighting physically with Erik or someone of equal strength, but that was because he used his brain and what brawn he had. Erik was more of an irrational fighter, if he got angry he just swung away and this was one of those fights. By this time Robbie and Erik were throwing punches at each other, though Erik was the one narrowly dodging most of them. Meanwhile Sam was unconsiss and Nadir was panicking, and this wasn't like him. He had to find that medication Caroline was talking about, but who would have it. Nadir dragged Sam to a secluded part of their large library; he laid her on the floor and ran to see if he could snag the medication from Robbie. As he turned to corner where the fight was occurring, he saw Cristen and Marie standing there. Well actually Marie was more like bound and Cristen was standing there holding her while egging Erik on.
"So Ghost boy, if you want to save your precious Punker, you better hurry and come get that medicine" Cristen taunted. While this was going on it looked as if Marie was crying and struggling to get away, but as almost everyone knew she was not very strong. Cristen finally took out an orange bottle and dangled it over the fighting pair of boys. "Come on Erik, come and get it" Cristen laughed. Then Nadir quickly ran up to Cristen and pushed her, and then they began to fight over the small bottle of silver pills.
