Chapter 11:

We weren't wanted in my dad's life:

"You didn't want children?" I exclaimed.

"Yeah. So I forced your mom to split with me. I couldn't of taken care of you guys." Josh explained.

"Ok. Well know, do you want me and Caitlyn to get to know you and become close with you?" I asked.

"No. I just said that around your mom. But I don't want you guys in my life." Josh explained.

"Yeah. Well you don't have to worry about that Josh! Cause I'm leaving and Caitlyn's coming with me." I said.

"Yey!" Caitlyn said. Then kicked Josh in the shin.

"Why you little...!" Josh said running after her. Caitlyn screamed.

"You touch her I will sew!" I said. I had to, so I kicked him too.

"That's it! Leave my house right now!" Josh yelled.

"Fine!" I yelled.

"Fine!" Josh yelled.

"Wait a minute Gabi. We don't have anywhere to go." Troy said.

"Why?" Josh asked getting mad. "You aren't staying here. Go back to your own house."

"Uh we can't!" Troy said.

"Why not?" Josh asked.

"Because it was torn down during the tornado we had a few days ago." I said.

"Oh yeah. That thing. Well go stay with your friends." Josh said.

"You know if you're a good father you would let your daughters stay here." Troy explained blocking the door so he couldn't get out.

"Yeah and if you were a strong man you would survive this." Josh said then punched him.

"Troy!" I yelled.

"Troy!" Caitlyn yelled. Troy was now on the floor in terrible pain.

"Mom!" Caitlyn yelled.

"What?" My mom asked walking to us. "What happened?"

"Josh punched Troy!" I yelled.

"What? JOSH!" My mom yelled at him.

"Well he deserved it." Josh said then pulled my mom up and pushed her down the stairs. Me and Caitlyn screamed. Then he took out a pocket knife.

"Mom!" I yelled.

"Mommy!" Caitlyn cried.

"Oh my god." I said. moving Troy and closing the door before Josh could get in.

"Leave us alone!" Caitlyn cried.

"Oh my god. Josh leave us alone!" I yelled. There was no lock on the door so I could only cover it with a small dresser that I pushed in front of the door.

"What's going on?" Caitlyn cried.

"I don't know. But Josh is totally out of control!" I told her then Josh started pushing and pounding on the door.

"Troy. Come on Troy. We need you." I said starting to cry. Then Troy got up and helped but he was in so much pain.

"Ok. Well we need to climb out the window." Troy said moaning.

"Ok." I said breaking the window.

"Ok were on the ground. So Caitlyn, I want you to climb out and run to the next door neighbors right away. And tell them to call the police." I explained to her.

"Ok Gabi." Caitlyn said crawling out of the window.

"Ok now go!" I yelled.

"Ok. Come on Anna." I said grabbing her. Then we got out the window and ran over to the neighbors. But Caitlyn was just standing on their doorstep.

"Neither of them are home!" Caitlyn said.

"Ok. Then we'll go across the street." I said then I saw Josh running out of the house.

"Oh my god." I said. Now he had a very evil look on his face. Now I knew that he was gonna kill us. We ran across the street and we were banging on the door.

"Open up!" We yelled.

"Help!" Catilyn yelled.

"Get away!" I yelled at Josh.

"They aren't home. So to the backyard." I said as we ran back there. But we decided to trick him so we ran two houses down and hood in some bushes.

"Ok Caitlyn I need you to get down and be as quiet as possible." I whispered to her.

"Ok Gabi." Caitlyn said. We were really quiet but them Josh came into that yard, and of corse Anna just had to start crying.

"Oh god." I said. Then we ran once Josh spotted us. Once we got to the street 2 cars were coming from each side.

"Oh come on! Hurry up!" Troy yelled. Then Josh came bardging out into the front. We screamed. And then we had no where to go so we stopped a car and asked for a ride.

"Oh please give us a ride! That guy that's almost here is trying to kill us! Please help us!" I quickly explained to the lady.

"Oh well sure, get in." She said.

"Thank you so much." Troy said.

"Why is that guy trying to kill you?" She asked.

"We don't really know." I said as Josh ran after the car. He looked so stupid running after a car.

"Do you guys know him?" She asked.

"He's my father." I explained.

"Mine too." Caitlyn added.

"He's your father and he's trying to kill you?" She exclamied. "That's just not right."

"Well try telling him that." Troy said. By now we had lost him.

"Oh thank god!" I said. "Well I guess we can get off here."

"What? Gabi we can't get off here! He'll find us." Troy explained. "Can you take us to the police station?"

"What? No way! I need to go back to the house and help my mom!" I said. Then Caitlyn started crying.

"Is mommy dead?" Caitlyn cried.

"Oh I hope not sweetie." I said giving her a little hug to comfort her.

"Ok well can you take us back to where you picked us up?" Troy asked.

"Well what if we see him again?" She asked.

"Well run him over." I said wanting to kill him for what he did to Troy and my mom.

"Run him over? Why would you want to run him over?" She asked.

"She's kind of in a bad mood. Her mother told her that he was dead and then 28 years later he shows up on her doorstep which was just a little while ago." Troy explained. Then I gave him a look that says 'Why are you telling her everything? It's none of her buisness'.

"Wow. You must have a hard life." She said turning around.

"You have no idea." I explained.

"There he is!" Caitlyn said pointing to him.

"Oh god. Duck!" I yelled as we ducked. Luckily he didn't see us.

"Thanks for the ride." I said as we got out of the car once we drove up to the house.

"No problem. Now that'll be 50 bucks!" She said.

"What!" Troy exclamied.

"I'm just kidding. Now hurry before he sees you." She explained.

"K. Thanks." I said as we went into the house.

"Mom!" I yelled seeing her laying on the ground trying to get up.

"Oh. Gabi." She said.

"Are you Ok?" I asked.

"I don't think so. I think I broke my leg and my arm." She explained.

"Mommy? Are you gonna die?" Caitlyn said crying.

"Oh sweetie. I don't think I'm gonna die. It's just a few broken bones." She said then moaned.

"We need to get her to the hospital right now." Troy explained.

"Ok. Can you stand up?" I asked.

"Oh I really, really, doubt that." My mom said. So me and Troy carried her out to the car and then I went back in and got Anna.

At the hospital.

"Ok, well she's gonna have to stay here a few nights. We might have to do surgery." The doctor explained.

"Ok." I said just standing there.

"And we can't have anyone in the room when they surgery is in progress. And we can't have visitors at any time unless your picking her up." The doctor explained waiting for me to leave. "And that includes you."

"Right." I said getting it. Then I left the room and left with Troy, Anna, and Caitlyn. We didn't want to go back to that house so we went to Taylor and Chad's house.

"So your dad tried to kill you guys?" Sharpay asked shocked.

"Yeah. And now my mom's in the hospital because he pushed her down the stairs." I explained.

"What? He pushed your mom down the stairs?" They all yelled.

"And he punched Troy in the stomach." I explained.

"What? He punched you?" Zeke asked Troy.

"Yeah." Troy explained.

"Oh yeah and get this. The reason he left me and my mom when I was a baby was because he didn't like me." I explained. "And the reason he left Caitlyn was because he didn't like her. But I still don't get the reason why you didn't come live with me and mom."

"He didn't like you guys!" Taylor exclaimed.

"Nope. He didn't want children." I explained. "So we hitch hiked when he was chasing us outside and I said I wanted to run him over." I explained laughing.

"Did you?" Chad asked.

"No." Troy said.

"You should of." They all said.

"Thank you." I said looking at Troy with a face that says 'See, we should have'.

"Well at least he didn't kill you." Sharpay added.

"Yeah." I said.

"Now he should so be in jail." Taylor said.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sharpay asked.

"I don't know. What are you thinking?" I asked.

"I say we use my plan to catch him like we did on Jed." Sharpay smiled.

"Oh I don't know Sharpay. That was too much work." I said.

"Yeah and what if he kidnapped 2 kids and surrounded them with poisinos snakes like Jed did?" Taylor asked.

"Oh like he did that." Sharpay said. "Come on. I mean you want him in jail don't you?"

"I don't know Sharpay." I said.

"Oh come Gabi. Let's do it. It'll be fun." Troy added.

"Yeah." Chad said. "And this time I'll be the culprit."

"Fine!" I finally agreed. "But first I need to have a talk with the sheriff. We might not even have to do the plan, we might just have to go to court."

"Court? Is that the place where you have to wear like black and other dark colors and like debate on if they got to jail or not?" Sharpay asked.

"Yes." I said.

"Well black is so not my color." Sharpay said.

"You don't have to wear black. At least I don't think you do." Taylor said.

"Yes Hi. Is this sheriff Ron?" I asked.

"Yes this is. How may I help you?" Ron asked.

"Well this is Gabriella Montez. I worked with you earlier on a case to get a guy in jail. You know the one with the snakes?" I explained.

"Oh yes. Gabriella. What's up?" Ron asked.

"Well I have another culprit." I explained.

"Again? Who is it this time?" Ron asked.

"My father. Josh Montez." I explained.

"You're father? What did your father do?" Ron asked.

"Well let's see. He tried to kill me, my husband, my daughter, and my sister. He pushed my mom down the stairs and now she's in surgery. And he's looking for us, so we cannot feel safe." I explained.

"What? He tried to kill you?" Ron exclaimed.

"Yes. And I want him in jail imediatly!" I said.

"Well first of all do you have any proof that this guy did all of that stuff?" Ron asked.

"Yes. My mother is in the hospital because of him. Go to the hospital and take a look yourself, she is there. And we have a whitness." I explained.

"Well great, who?" Ron asked.

"I have no clue what her name is. But she gave us a ride when he was chasing us. We don't have any info on her." I explained. "But I'm telling you the truth. He really did try to kill us!" I explained.

"Well I'm sorry but unless we get some real proof we cannot but him in jail." Ron explained. I thought for a minute if there was any more proof.

"Wait a minute! There is some proof." I explained. "Can you meet me at 1467 34th Ave N?"

"Why there?" Ron asked.

"Because there is where proof is. And we might find him there." I said. "Just please meet me there?"

"Fine. But this better be good." Ron said then hung up.

"Great!" I said. "Ok. Troy we are going back to that house."

"What? No way." Troy said.

"Yes. Ron is meeting us there. We are going to give him the proof that he wants." I explained.

"Oh I'm coming." Sharpay said.

"Me too." Taylor said.

"Me three." Zeke added.

"Me four." Chad said. Then we gave him a weird look. "Well that's not fair cause you guys got all the good ones."

Then we laughed a little.

"Ok then. Let's go." I said.

Back at my parents house.

"Great he's here." I said.

"Ok. You ready for some proof?" I asked getting out of the car.

"I'm ready. Let's see it. Or hear it." Ron said. Everyone got out of the car.

"Oh great." I said.

"What?" Ron asked.

"Josh is here." I said looking at his car parked on the side of the street.

"Well that's good cause then we can catch him." Troy said.

"Ah I guess so." I said.

"Too bad we can't run him over with the car, ah Gabi." Taylor joked. I just gave her a weird look. We went inside.

"Yo Josh! You in here?" I asked.

"Oh you're here." Josh said but I didn't see him.

"Quick Ron, hide and see what he does." I said. Ron hood in the closet.

"What do you want?" Josh asked coming out of the bathroom. You could still hear the flushing.

"Well we want to know...why you tried to kill us earlier?" I asked.

"I didn't try to kill you..." Josh said. "all."

"Well why did you try to kill me, Troy, Anna, and Caitlyn?" I asked.

"Because you runied my life!" Josh said.

"Since when?" I asked.

"The day you were born!" Josh yelled.

"And then the day you were born!" Josh yelled at Caityln. Sharpay hood Caitlyn behind her.

"Oh yeah?" I asked.

"Yeah." Josh answered.

"Well you ruined my life the day you showed up to my party. You ruined my life 28 years after I was born. But if I had known you, you would of ruined my life the day I said my first word." I explained.

"Well..." Josh said.

"I ain't finished yet!" I interupted. "And I really do not remember inviting you to my party either! You only came under my mom's invitation! And you know why you weren't invited? Because I thought you were dead!"

"Are you finished?" Josh asked.

"Yes." I said.

"Good. Now I can do this!" Josh said taking out his pocket knife. We all screamed.

"Hold it right there!" Ron said popping out of the closet. "Drop the knife!"

Ron had his gun out. Josh dropped the knife.

"Josh Montez. You are under arrest for the attempt murder of Gabriella Montez, Caitlyn Montez, Anna Montez, and Troy Bolton." Ron explained.

"Actually it's Anna Bolton, not Montez. We gave her Troy's last name since were getting married pretty soon." I explained. Ron hand cuffed Josh.

"Later Josh!" I said in his face as Ron took him out of the house.

"I will so get you for this, even if it's the last thing I do!" Josh yelled.

"Sorry we didn't get to use your plan this time Sharpay." I said.

"It's ok. I mean you're plan was very clever too." Sharpay said.

"I told Ron to hide in the closet." I said.

"Yeah, well work on your planning skills. But right now I think it's time to start planning for Anna's party." Sharpay explained.

"What party?" I asked.

"We're throwing Anna a baby shower." Taylor explained.

"Well what about your boy?" I asked.

"Oh. Yeah. Jake. Well he's gonna be gone a little longer than I thought. So let's just go." Taylor lied.

"Oh I really wanted to see him! Can we go visit?" I asked.

"Him and my parents are...going to Tokyo for a month." Taylor lied again.

"Tokyo?" I asked. "Cool."

"Oh, oh. Do you think they'll send pictures?" Sharpay asked even though she knew he was dead. Everyone except me gave her a very, very, weird look.
