Hey guys! (especially Keelin) I know I haven't posted in a really long time, and I've FINALLY decided to upload another chapter! Thanks to everyone who reviewed. I hope you enjoy! Ish. This is gonna be a bloodbath of a chapter...

ISLA POV

Isla woke up to complete darkness. Which was weird, because Isla hardly ever got up early. She walked quietly around the room and saw that no one else was there. She also saw that someone had covered the window so thoroughly that no light could escape. Isla ripped open the window.

Light blinded her and Isla stumbled backwards, banging her head on a dresser and knocking herself out.


THALIA POV

"Where is she?" Thalia asked Fiona. They were sitting under one of Fiona's topiaries, the centaur, reading and waiting for Isla.

"I don't know, she was still asleep when I woke up," her friend answered.

"Maybe she still is...I'll go see." Thalia put her book down and entered the house, climbing up the stairs and into her room.


FIONA POV

After Thalia left, Fiona waited. And waited. And was just about to follow her friend when Claire ran up to her.

"Where's Isla?" the little girl asked.

"That's what I'm wondering," Fiona said under her breath.

"What?"

"Oh, um, I don't know, probably sleeping. Thalia's going to find her."

"Can I help?" Claire looked up at Fiona with wide eyes.

"Um...I guess..." Fiona replied, thinking, What harm could it do? Boy, was she wrong.


THALIA POV

As Thalia entered the room she expected to find Isla sprawled on her bed, covers turned in impossible ways. What she really found was Isla sprawled on the floor with her head bleeding, some sort of black plastic ripped off the window, and something white next to her friend, red with blood.

Thalia rushed over to Isla and checked her pulse, relieved when she found out Isla was alive. Thalia then picked up the white thing, seeing that it was a folded piece of paper.

She wiped Isla's blood onto the floor and open up the paper.

I'M COMING.

And Isla jolted awake.


FIONA POV

Fiona led Claire upstairs and into Fiona, Isla, and Thalia's room.

Fiona gasped and Claire screamed, which startled Isla and made her hit her head again.

"Claire!" Fiona yelled.

Claire started crying.

Thalia glared at Fiona. "Claire?" she turned to her.

"Y-y-yes?" the little girl said.

"Can you get Miss Peregrine?"

"Uh-huh," Claire replied, tears still running down her cheeks. She ran downstairs.

"What happened?" Fiona asked once Claire was gone.

"I don't know. I think she hit her head. But she's not all I found I also found - " Thalia was interrupted by Miss Peregrine and Claire walking into the room.

Miss Peregrine rushed over to Isla. "Oh, no..." She glanced at the curtain and her brow furrowed. "Oh, no..."

"Miss-Miss Peregrine?" Thalia ventured.

"Yes, Miss Chapman?" Miss P replied, her eyes still on Isla.

"I also found this..." Miss Peregrine tore her eyes away from Isla and turned to Thalia, who was holding out a bloody piece of paper.

Miss Peregrine read it and froze. "Miss Densmore, get Miss Bruntley. I'm going to have another patient to tend to. Miss Frauenfeld and Miss Chapman, get Mr Portman. We're going to need his peculiarity."

"But I thought Jake wasn't peculiar," Fiona objected.

"Don't be silly, Miss Frauenfeld, you know only peculiars can enter time loops. His peculiarity is the same as his grandfather's."

Fiona's eyes widened.

Sorry to end on a cliffhanger but...yeah. Thanks for reading! Please review!
