CHAPTER 8

The daughters were waiting in their homeroom. The teacher passed out their school newspaper. "Guys! Check this out! A new amusement park is opening!" Catty shrieked. "That's so cool!" Vanessa said. "Yeah, let's go!" Serena said. "I wanna go on the rollercoaster!" Jimena said. "We'll go on the rides we can," Serena said.

Serena got a tee shirt and jeans. After applying blush, Serena heard Jimena's car go into the driveway. Jimena honked right as Serena stepped outside. She got into the front seat and put a scrunchie into her hair. "Let's go to the park!" Jimena yelled and she stepped on the accelerator. They were driving for about half an hour

, when they reached the amusement park. They got out of the car and walked to the lines and walked up ticket booth lines. They looked for the shortest line and waited. When it was their turn they bought 4 tickets. Serena looked around and saw followers. They were stalking a girl that looked 16. She had brown curls that reached

her shoulders. She had big brown eyes that were worried. Serena went into her mind and found out she was meeting her sister at the park, but the followers (to her they were just punkers) followed her from when she got out of the bus.

"Come on Serena!"

Serena turned around and noticed that her friends were already past the entrance gate. "Oh, sorry, my mind was focused somewhere else." Serena emphasized on the word mind She tilted her head where she saw the followers. They all looked and saw it too. The girl being followed by followers. "They probably want to recruit her." Catty said.

Serena and her friends turned away and walked towards the rides, but Serena knew that their minds were still on the girl. She didn't need to be a mind reader to know that. They found the rollercoaster that Catty wanted to go on, and saw that they were barely any people waiting in line. "This is awesome! Come on guys!" Catty yelled already running to the ride.

All of them except Vanessa started running. "Vanessa? What's wrong?" Serena asked turning around. "I don't like rollercoasters, but go on ahead!" Vanessa waved Serena away. When they reached the line, the ride finished, which meant that they were next to ride. "How lucky are we?" Jimena asked. When they walked up the ride, they found out

that it only seats 2 at a time. They looked around looking for a cart that holds 3. When they couldn't find any, Serena turned around to get out when she saw the followers push the girl onto the rollercoaster. "Catty, you and Jimena can sit together. I'll sit somewhere else." Catty and Jimena nodded and sat down. Serena walked up to the girl and asked,

"Is this seat taken?" The girl looked up and shook her head. "Are you afraid?" Serena asked knowing the answer. She looked at Serena and nodded her head. "I was forced on by these punkers that were following me. They have to be my sister's friends because she's the only one that knows I'm afraid of rollercoasters. It's not like they can read my mind right?" the girl asked.

Serena just stared at her thinking you don't know the half of it. "Sorry, I didn't introduce myself. I'm Serena." Serena said holding out her hand. "I'm Samantha. Sammy for short" Sammy held out her hand and shook Serena's. The ride started and Serena could hear Sammy whimper. Serena could see a big drop and a series of loops one after another. Suddenly, the

rollercoaster started shaking. "Are you ok?" Serena asked. Sammy just kept screaming and by the time they reached the drop Sammy's eyes widened and her screaming became louder than thunder. The rollercoaster started moving irregular and shaking violently. Serena looked at Sammy and fear was on her face. I guess Sammy has a right to be afraid of rollercoasters

after this Serena thought. Suddenly, before they got onto the first loop, the rollercoaster stopped immediately and Serena looked back at her friends behind her. They looked as puzzled as her. "Sammy, are you ok? Because this isn't supposed to happ-" Serena was cut off when she saw Sammy. Her eyes were dilated and she staring at something only she can see.

"Oh, my, gosh! You're Tianna!" Serena gasped. The rollercoaster started moving backwards and kept going until it stopped at the beginning and the protective bar flew up, her eyes went back to normal and she took long shallow breaths. She looked at Serena and smiled sheepishly. "If you're smart you probably know what just happened. I'm a little weird. Things like that

happen alot." Sammy said. All Serena could do was laugh. Sammy seemed taken aback. And thought that Serena was crazy. "I'm sorry, but it's just that, I didn't think that we would find you this fast!" Serena laughed. "What are you talking about?" Sammy asked. "You don't remember?" Serena asked her hopes falling. Sammy looked puzzled and shook her head.

"Well, my friends and I are going to tell you." Serena said getting out of the rollercoaster and holding out her hand. "Um, ok, but what is this about?" Sammy said getting out of the ride. Serena took hold of Sammy's hand and walked out to the line and crowd. She found Jimena, Catty, and Vanessa. "Guys, look who I found!" Serena shrieked. "Um, a girl" Catty asked.

"You know how the ride went crazy?" Serena asked. They nodded and before Serena could finish, Sammy asked, "Are you going to tell them my secret?" Serena nodded, but instead she said, "Let's go my house." Sammy shook her head. "I have to find my sister." Sammy said. "Where is she?" Serena asked. Sammy looked around and pointed to a girl with dark and straight hair.

She resembled Sammy in her face. Serena seeped into her mind and then her sister ran over to her and said, "Sammy! What are you doing here? I thought you were at your friends' house?" Her sister asked. "But, I, you-" Sammy asked puzzled. "Don't worry!" Serena said. Serena pulled her into the car and started soothing her.
