The Truth Revealed

A/N Okay! Votes closed. It was a hard decision. It was tied between the park and the ski lodge, so I had to choose. But just so everyone wins, I will put Sharpay, Ryan, and Zeke in the story. I also put it so Troy will find her, so be happy. That was the hardest decision ever! Well here's the chapter.

Special Thanks To:phyllie24vicki86 for the idea.

Gabi's house (Troy's POV)

"Do you have any idea Troy!" Ms. Montez shrieked at me. I took a moment to think. If I don't Gabriella will get hurt because of her dad. I f I do, both me and Gabriella will get hurt because I told the truth. I lay my head back and thought. "Troy!"

"Oh I uh.. well.. It's just that.. I think," I stuttered.

"Well?" Mr. Montez glared at me, it's like he could see right through me. I sighed. I might as well tell her.

"There's something I should tell you," I said and took a breath, " Gabriella is hurt. Well getting hurt." I looked at Mr. Montez. I saw the look in his eyes. It was full of pure anger. I gulped, but this is for the best.

"What by who?" She said shakily.

"Uh.. Her... her..her dad," I said quietly. They both stood up.

"That's absurd," she said, putting her hands on her hips, "He hasn't shown a sign of meaness to Gabi since he got here." Why won't they believe me.

"It's the truth!" I practically yelled, "She told me!"

"Enough," She said, "I'm calling the police." She then left into the kitchen. Leaving me and Mr. Montez. I gulped. This won't be good.

"Just for that," he said viciously, "She's gonna get it."

"You might not even get a chance!" I yelled, having more confidence, "Because of you, We can't find her." He glared at me and left. I'm gonna have to call everyone. I ran to my car and started driving to Ryan and Sharpay's. As I was, I called Taylor and Chad, Kelsi and Jason, and Sharpay to tell them I was coming there.

"Troy why is everyone showing up?" shrieked Sharpay over the phone, "You better not be throwing a ..."

"No! I'm not. Just wait I'm almost there." She sighed exasperatedly and hung up. Once I got there, everyone was already there.

"Okay," I started, "I have..."

"Why did you call us here?" asked Chad rudely.

"Chad!" said Zeke, "Someone is talking. Don't be rude."

"Anyway," I said, "I have bad news... about Gabriella..."

"Why? Is she in the hospital? Is she safe?" asked Kelsi frantically. Sharpay nodded in agreement.

"I don't know. She's...she's gone..." I said quietly.

"Gone!" everyone, except me, Chad and Taylor, yelled. We nodded.

"Since when?" asked Ryan.

"About an hour ago," I said, "So she shouldn't be far."

"Why did she run away?" asked Sharpay. Everyone else nodded.

Meanwhile (Gabi's POV)

Okay. I decided not to go to the park. Instead, Sharpay and Ryan's house. I turned the road and continued walking until I got to their house. I raised my hand to knock, until I heard voices inside. It sounded like the gang. I looked through the crack in the window. Everyone was gathered around Troy. I sighed. I suppose that he told them about my dad. Normally I would be mad, but I would do the same in his position. I pressed close to the window, but I couldn't hear a thing. I sighed and headed back. Where am I supposed to go now. If I go to the park, well it would be easy to find me. Troy and I go there all the time.

I closed my eyes and thought for a moment. Then I had and idea. I reached into my bag and took out my wallet. I opened it and reached in for my money. 47$ and a bus token. I think it'll get me there. The bus token will get me to the train and the train will take me to the ski lodge. I took out my phone and called the train station.

"The train leaves at 7 AM?...okay thanks." I looked at my watch. 3:30 PM. I still had a while. The bus comes at the park at around 5 AM. So for now. I'll go to the park. Well just until the bus comes. I headed to the direction I came from and ran to the park.

Sharpay and Ryan's house (Troy's POV)

"Well?" asked Sharpay impatiently.

"Her dad...her dad beats her," I said. Everyone stared at me, shocked.

"Are you sure?" asked Zeke.

"Really?" said Taylor, "I just knew she cut. Not that her dad beat her."

"Oh my god!" shrieked Kelsi.

"What?" everyone said in unison.

"If she's run away and is suicidal... she could kill herself!" she said frantically.

"I didn't even think of that!" I said.

"We have to find her now!" said Sharpay, "Everybody split up."

"Yeah...uh" started Chad, "Me and Taylor look North, near the school. Ryan and Sharpay look South, near the mall, Sharpay don't stop and look at shoes. Kelsi and Jason look West around her neighborhood. And Zeke and Troy look East near the park. Okay Break!" No one moved, shocked at Chad's leadership skills.

"Wow," said Kelsi.

"No time for wow's!" I shouted, "We have to go!" We then split of in different directions, once we left the house.
