I'm updating quicker 'cause I got an awesome beyond awesome idea for this story! I need to build it up in this chapter so I wanted to get it out of the way.

The first half is going to revolve around the family but mostly Ryan. What he thinks of Sharpay and Troy's disappearence. Thanks for all of the completely coolio reviews! You guys rock! Keep them coming, I got to my computer this afternoon and I had over 6 or 7 which is more then I've gotten for this story then any other chapter. Since I'm updating so quickly, I'm going to give you guys more time to vote on what you want to happen(refer to chapter 3). But I think I know what your choice is going to be.

Chapter 4

. Last time with Ryan and the family…

(record scrath)

Wait, I forgot to tell you his reactions, so let us go back to that beautiful morning………

Ryan Evans woke up to the sound of birds chirping which was always a sign of good luck. Ryan smiled and knocked on the door to his sister's room.

Silence.

He knocked a couple of more times thinking she may be asleep. Troy better not be in there with her! Or I may just have to kill him! That little nasty. Ryan thought being the protective brother he is. He opened the door and her a small creak. He looked around her large pink bedroom and saw no sign of her. He then ran down stairs and called the Bolton's, Montez's, Danforth's, etc. He still had yet to see his sister.

Once he was done calling the whole freaking city, he raced upstairs in a sprint and pounded on his parent's bedroom door, house rule. But to knock, not pound. His dad opened up in his manager's suit ready to take on a day full of annoying paparazzi. "Ryan! What the-" his dad was interrupted by his loving wife. "Good morning, Ryan. How is your sister doing? Is she feeling better?" Mrs. Evan's asked her tired son. "I wouldn't know!" he yelled making his parents expressions turn from cheery to confused. "Ry, calm down." His mother told him putting a shoulder on his hand. Sorry, hand on his shoulder.

Ryan was still stunned himself. He wanted to find his sister. No needed. She is his rock and vice versa. "She's gone! I called everybody and she's just gone. Mom, dad, Sharpay is missing." He said as fast as he could. He didn't want to admit anything about her being missing, it's all happening too fast. It just isn't happening.

He fell to the ground sobbing more then ever before. Mr. And Mrs. Evan's looked at eachother scared out of their minds. They both kneeled down with Ryan but when the touched the ground he sparked up, ran to his room, and slammed the door shut.

Once he hit his bed he let it all blow. "This is NOT happening to me! God, sis! Where the crap are you?" he yelled as loud as he could. He laid his head down on his blue striped pillow and whispered softly, "because I just want you to know, I love you, sis. More then you will ever know."

He cried softly into his pillow until about 9AM. He raced out of his door, grabbed his backpack and yelled to his parents that he was going to school. He just needed something to get his mind off of his sister.

Ryan walked into school to be greeted by many people who had heard the news. Once he had hit his classroom, he ignored everybody. Even his girlfriend, Gabriella. He payed attention the whole class time. He then got out of class and slowly walked to his locker. Gabriella walked up to him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "How was your morning, Ryan?" she asked in her usual sugary sweet tone. Which was really annoying Ryan right now because he didn't want to hear anyone saying Ryan because it made him think of Sharpay. They were always referred to as Ryan and Sharpay. Never one or the other, always together. Best friends, siblings, always and forever, each other's rock. He just couldn't take it any longer. He slammed his locker shut and yelled through the whole hall way, "Oh, my god when will you shut up?" he then realized what he had just said and words were heard from his mouth such as, "I'm sorry, baby. I'm really sorry. I love you." He held on to her tears rolling down his cheeks. They pulled apart and Gabi smiled, "It's okay. Rough day? It's only-" she cut herself off by saying, "What's wrong, Ry?" once she saw the tears on his face. "Please, please don't call me Ry. It reminds me of her." He emphasized her. She had absoulutely no idea what he was talking about. He then walked off and ran a hand through his hair.

Chad, Taylor, Kelsi, and Jason walked up literally confused. "What's wrong with him and where are Troy and Sharpay?" Kelsi asked. Gabriella shrugged her shoulders and looked at her friends sympathetically. "I wish I knew." She continued and walked off. They four teens looked at each other and walked off.

The gang, including Ryan and Gabriella were in 3rd period when the principal came over the intercom. Loud and clear he spoke, "I'm sorry for this interruption during your classes, but two of our fellow students are missing. Sharpay Evans and Troy Bolton. If you have any information on where they might be, please come to the principal office now. Thank you." Everbody in the class was talking until Ryan had an outburst of rage. He stood up and through his chair across the room but didn't hurt anyone. He then ran out of the classroom crying and ran to his dressing room, next to, hers.

Once in the the room he started to shove everybody off of it's shelves and kick different objects sitting on the ground. He screamed and slid against his jammed cabinet and started to sob uncontrollably. Just then Gabriella burst through the door and came to comfort her boyfriend. She led him to the beach. (I know New Mexico is a landlocked state, just work with me 'kay?) Once there, they sat on the warm sand and watched the waves toss and turn right before ending of the beautiful 'noise.'

"I'm sorry." Gabriella whispered for her voice was cracking. Troy and Sharpay were her two best friends besides Ryan and it made her cry too. "I know. So am I." Ryan stood up and stared at Gabriella as if an 8th world wonder. He then looked at the waters and let a few tears slip from his eyes yet again.

"I just want to walk into those waters and disperse, I just want this all to go away." He said before attempting to walk off but Gabriella grabbed his hand and held him. "Please let go." He said. "No, I never will. Not ever. Because I love you and I care what happens to you. Ryan, it's going to be okay. I want this all to go away but you can't do this to yourself." Gabriella explained. She then kissed him fully on the lips and they sat there. Until three o'clock rolled around.
