Chapter 3 familiar and unfamiliar faces

Once we got to school we went to see our friends after we went to our classes. I had the same first class as Gar did, science. Miss Nicknamaggle, our science teacher. In the hallway on the way to lunch, Gar stopped me. He brought me the opposite way of the cafeteria. When there was no one around us, he started kissing me.

"Why so happy Gar?" I couldn't figure out what had made him so happy he was just freaking out about the math homework we had to do.

"Oh nothing just thinking and planning for the end of the year" he answered with a huge smile. "Oh but actually you don't know any of the plans for the end of the year, it's a surprise and don't bother asking any of our friends if I told them I would have made sure they would not tell you." He said with a huge smile on his face.

"I can make you tell me" I say with devious smile on my face.

"You can try but I am committed to this and if I tell you it will still be amazing but not as amazing if it was a surprise." I couldn't figure out what it was. It was almost like trying to find the answer to a really hard riddle someone had just told you.

"Ok but can you at least tell me what it's about and why is it happening?"

"Can't tell you what it's about, but I can tell you why. It's because I love you."

"That's your answer?" I have a puzzled look on my face now.

"Yup and if you want to find out you'll just have to wait for the end of the year." We head to the lunchroom and sit with our friends. Kori looked extremely happy for some reason but I couldn't think of what it was so I decided to ask her.

"Kori why are you so happy?" She looked almost as happy as Gar did.

"Oh friend Rachel I must not tell you or I will be very sad and so will everyone else." I glare at Gar.

"What." He says in the innocent voice he always uses when I get mad at him for not telling me something.

"Really, so everyone knows but me. Why can't you just tell me already everyone else knows about what your planning."

"Actually we are all helping, planning and working on it." Richard said with a shy smile on his face. Well since I am obviously not finding out what this planning is all about I should try and figure out where that necklace came from, I don't think I should wear it out in public I don't want to get mugged but I would hate for something like that to go to waste, maybe once I figure out where it came from I might wear it in public.

"Rachel what are you thinking about." I was awakened from my thoughts by no other than Gar.

"What." I asked angrily. I seem to be asking him what angrily a lot now but I don't really mind.

"Rae Rae what do you want to do after school." I just looked at him.

"Not sure what to you want to do actually now that I think about it we HAVE ABOUT 150 PAGES OF MATH QUESTIONS TO DO TONIGHT." I wanted to find out more about the necklace but we had homework.

"Wow! Rachel I just called you Rae Rae and you didn't yell at me, well actually you did yell at me but not because I called you Rae Rae." I had just realized that he was right. I didn't Evan react when he called me that nickname I hate. The bell that signalled lunch was about to end started ringing. We all rushed out of the cafeteria and headed to our classes. After school me and Gar got started on our homework.

"This is impossible. How are we going to do like 150 pages of math homework."

"Maybe if you stopped whining and started thinking we could get this done soon. Okay let's see, this equals that and that times this plus 4308942 divided by this plus that minus negative this equals 6. You see that wasn't that hard." Later when we finally finished.

"Hallelujah! FINALLY! Finished." He tried to crash on the bed but missed and landed on the floor.

"Hahaahahha, great job Gar you figured out how to make me laugh. Are you okay?"

"Stop laughing. I'm fine. How about a little help over here."

"How about… no." I couldn't help but laugh. He got up and we got changed for bed. I just couldn't fall asleep there was too much on my mind. What is this surprise, where did this necklace come from and how much more homework will we get this year. I felt movement on the other side of the bed. I looked over to see Gar still awake. He didn't look to well.

"Gar, what's wrong? You don't look to well." He turned towards me.

"just really tired." He looked really sleepy.

As we walked out of Gar's apartment we saw a cloaked figure, it tossed a bracelet towards me and then ran away. Who was that? I picked up the bracelet, it matched with the necklace. I thought this couldn't be a coincidence. Could it?

"Who the hell was that?!"

"No time to worry about that, we have to get to school. We can worry about this later. In case you forgot our homework is do today."

"Crap, I forgot it's do today hurry we have to go."

Ok now it's lunchtime class was boring we got more homework as usual. We decided to do our homework during lunchtime instead of at home. We finally finished, actually just one question left. Victor finished the last question first.

"Victor what's the answer to the last question."

"It's y equals 2637 divide by 666 minus x equals 666. In other words 666."

"Thanks Victor." After lunch we all went to math. Professor Chan seemed like he was in a good mood. He even didn't give us homework. I'm not complaining I am just really happy and surprised. A month went by and we still didn't see that cloaked figure again, until now. I was tossed a pair of earrings then the cloaked figure ran away. This time we decided to go after him.

"Quickly he's getting away. Hey get back here, who are you?"

"Rachel wait up, actually don't wait up I'm going to go try to cut him off." Did he really just yell that out load, well now the cloaked figure knows he's going to do that. He stopped right in front of a corner I stopped about a meter behind him before I could react Gar ran well it looked like he fell right as he reared the corner. He toppled right in front if the figure. It was a he I could tell that but then he took of his hood.

"I am the messenger. Jaime Reyes."

"Messenger? For you, why are you giving me these things, who sent them and why are in a cloak trying to run away from us?"

"Can we talk inside instead of you yelling at me in the middle of the sidewalk, everyone is staring."

"I can think of a few reasons why there are people starring and one of them is not because I am yelling. But yes we probably should go inside." We lead Jaime into Gar's apartment we sit down on the couch and start questioning him.

"Ok I get you want know but I can't tell you, I have promised I would not and I would be in a lot of trouble if I did all I can tell is that the person sending you these things cares for you a lot and each of these holds a greater meaning than you think."

"So you can't tell me who's sending them and if you do you will get in a lot of trouble, is that correct?" He nodded. "I need to get going, I have to tell the person I delivered it. Don't try to follow me you wont be able to."

"What do you mean we wouldn't be able to?"

"I'll loose you in 5 minutes."

"Fine we wont follow you but on one condition."

"Yes?"

"You have to deliver these in person no more waiting at the door tossing them to me and running off, no more giving them to others to deliver to me. Got it?"

"Ok. Well I'll be going now bye."

"Well there's one thing we can say for sure, we have very interesting lives."

"You can say that again. I mean really, you came from Africa to find your parents and reform me, your parents broke the laws of science, I had I psycho ex boyfriend who my dad fought to save me and to redeem himself, they ended up killing each other in the middle of the mall and now there is a messenger delivering really expensive jewelry to me and if he tells me who is the sender then he'll be in a lot of trouble." We hear a knock on he door, it's Tera and Kitten. "Hi Tara, hi kitty." After we let them in they went to sit on the couch.

"So how are you guys doing?"

"Good what and how are you doing kitten?"

"Me and Tara are doing good. So how's the last year of college?"

"It's good." Gar got up whispered something to Tara and Kitty, then they left the room.

*Gar's point of view*

"ok so I need you to keep Rachelle busy while I prepare."

"I can't believe you guys are gonna get married at the end of this year. Can you believe it Tara?"

"Actually I can't, congrats."

"Ok lets go back now. You must not tell her."

*Rachelle's point of view*

"So what did you guys talk about?"

"Nothing really."

"Ok then, so what do you want to do now?" Kitty piped in first.

"How about we go on a double date" We decided to go to biblanewgood. A new restaurant that just opened up. So once we got there and sat down I couldn't help but feel like someone was watching. Then I realized why someone was sticking their hand in my purse. I grabbed the hand then the man started to speak.

"Wo easy there. Come on I am just delivering."

"I thought I told you not to be so secretive."

"I'm sorry but it's my job to secretly deliver these to you." He was whispering in my ears.

"First sit down, second what is it this time?"

"It's an armlet."

"Rachel who's this?" Kitty asked leaning across the table towards Jaime.

"This is Jaime Reyes. He is one of my new friends." Then a new voice made its appearance.

"Don't I know you. Wait, Jaime! Is that you?"

"Sure is. Wow it has been awhile."

"Ya it has, so who are these people well this is Rachel Roth "Hi" Garfield Logan "call me Gar" and I don't know these 2."

"I am Terra and this is Kitten, call me Tara and call her Kitty."

"I am Jinx. So- wait a minute did you say Rachel Roth?"

"Yes."

"OMG so you know Victor."

"Victor Stone?"

"Yes. I am going on a date with him soon. Oh no its in an hour I'll see you later bye."

"well that just happened. Oh look at the time well its time for me and Gar to go, we should do this again sometime. I'll see you tomorrow when everyone meets up at the park."

"Ya we should, what about you Tara, would you like to do this gain?"

"Ya sure why not." So when we got back we just crashed on the bed and then realized Jaime was with us. After talking to home the phone started ringing. When I answered I heard a familiar voice talking on the phone but I didn't know who it was.

"Hello Raven, I am so happy to be talking to you, I hope you liked the presents."

"Presents? Wait are you the one sending me jewelry?"

"Yes I am, and as you know each one holds great meaning. Don't worry we'll talk more soon I hope you can forgive me for what I have done. But I am sure you can find it in your heart. Once I send you the finale piece of the set I will explain the meaning that they hold and when we meet in person if you don't forgive me its fine I don't expect you to but I still hope you will. Goodbye my little Raven, for now. Oh ya super important listen no one can know that your nickname is Raven and your last name is Roth they can only know one. There will be great danger if they know both only your most trusted friends can know but even they shouldn't know they can built it's a risk. Please stay out of trouble and now that I called I can give you a separate present. Tell Jaime to give it to you."

"Jaime do you have a present for me?"

"Yes one for you and one for Gar."

"These are phones."

"Yes they are I hope you like them Jaime will put his number in both so you can call him if you need something also to stay in contact with me. I must be going now bye." Then the phone hung up.

"Okay so I just put my number in both your phones so I'll be going now bye."

"Bye." After I explained everything to Gar we put our and all of our friends phone numbers in. Then we went to bed. It was Sunday morning. We went to meet up with our friends. When we got there I felt like someone was watching.

"Jaime I know you're there." Then as expected I saw Jaime come out of hiding and walk over to me. "Wait, wasn't your cloak brown."

"It was and still is, this is your cloak. I don't kno why you already have this one and your not starting with brown."

"Wait what?"

"Nope, I am not alowed to say more than that."

"Rachel who is that? Wait , Jinx! Is that you?"

"Hey Vic." Then someone else came out of hiding. I couldn't believe it. It was Karen.

"Hi Rachel. Before anything just let me talk. My name is not actually Karen its Keren, I am sorry about how I acted all those years ago but I changed. I am here to apologize.

"Don't worry I know that Rory manipulates people and turns them bad."

"About Rory, he's alive."

"WHAT!? How, how can he be alive? My dad died fighting him. Where is he?! I am going to make sure he stays dead this time!"

"I don't know but I do know that he is working with someone and I have feeling it has to do with you."

"Why me?"

"Well you father almost killed him, he tried killing you and he hates you."

"Well, thanks for the information. Everything is going out of control, my entire life is spinning and nothing makes sense."

"Rachel I know its bad but don't you think your being a little over dramatic?"

"No, because Rory isn't the only thing that's going on right now. Apparently no one can know that my nickname is Raven and my last name is Roth, they can only know 1. I don't know why but this might not be a coincidence."

Meanwhile

Rory's point of view

"What now we finally have all the information we need lets attack."

"No, there group has just grown stronger they have 5 more people now."

Well that's that next chapter will start back at Rachel's point of view anyway hope you like this chapter it took me awhile to write it.
