OK, Chapter 6 is from Drake's point of view. I rather enjoyed writing this chapter!
I should probably start putting disclaimers in, shouldn't I?
DISCLAIMER: I don't own GONE or any of the characters The song is Disturbance by The Move. Which I don't own either
DRAKE'S POV
When I was a little boy
my mama dropped me on my head
I felt kinda dizzy but the doctor
made note of how I did
I smirked as I shut the door to my room. Boy, was I going to enjoy hurting those two girls tomorrow morning! Or maybe it wouldn't just be tomorrow morning… I could hurt them all day without getting bored! Poor Diana, no Caine Bloody-Sorren to look after her now! And the know-it-all's boyfriend was a waste of space anyway. I sat down on the bed, wondering if I should try and sleep – after all, I'd need all my strength for tomorrow. I could hear that stupid Astrid crying across the hall. I grinned cruelly. Why did I need to wait until tomorrow to hurt them? I could easily do it now and tomorrow! I sauntered out my room and across the hall. I paused outside their door and listened. Astrid was still crying. What a wimp I thought. I could hear Diana muttering to her, comforting her I assumed. Then, I heard DIANA start crying! This was going to be so much fun I thought cruelly.
Ever since then there's been a slight disturbance in my mind
A kind of disarrangement that the surgeons cannot find
I pushed the door open and stepped into the room, letting the door swing shut behind me. Both girls jumped. I could see the shock on their faces. "W…what are you doing here Drake?" Diana asked me. I could see that she was trying to be strong and hope that I hadn't heard her voice break but she was wrong. She wiped the tears from her face and glared defiantly at me. I grinned at her, loving the way she flinched. "I came to see how you were." I told her. She looked at me in shock. I laughed and rolled my eyes. "You really are a stupid girl." I said, watching her blush angrily. "Do you want to know why I'm really here?" I asked. She looked at Astrid and they both nodded. "I was bored," I said to them. "I came through for some fun!" I added, smirking menacingly. Both girls' faces immediately went pale. "Get…get out, Drake." Astrid said to me. I turned to face her, and walked slowly towards her, my smirk growing with each step. I loved the way her eyes widened and the way she cowered away from me.

I was standing right in front of her. She looked up into my eyes fearfully. "What did you say to me?" I asked her pleasantly. "I…I said…" she trailed off and looked at Diana. Glaring, I grabbed her face and made her face me again. "What. Did. You. Say. To. Me?" I asked, slapping her face after each word. She winced and more tears ran down her face. "I told you to get out." She replied, sobbing. Oh this was going to be fun I thought. "Stop crying," I said sharply. "There'll be plenty of time for that soon. Very soon." I added, grinning my trademark shark-like grin at her. She bit her lip and tried to stop crying but tears just kept running down her face. Still grinning, I bent down a little so that my face was level with hers. "Lesson number one in life: Don't disobey me!" I said and slapped her, hard. She flinched and her eyes flickered to Diana. I saw Diana nod quickly at her. I frowned but turned my attention back to Astrid. "Now," I started pleasantly, "Are you going to stop crying by yourself, or do I have to make you stop crying?" I asked. She gulped.

"I'll stop crying." She answered. I glared at her. That wasn't the answer I wanted at all. "Wrong answer," I whispered dangerously. Suddenly, something ran past me. Diana. She was just about to open the door when my Whip–Hand wrapped around her waist, jerking her backwards. I threw her onto the bed, before grabbing Astrid's wrist. I dragged her over to the bed and pushed her down beside Diana. "That was a stupid plan," I told them. "When did you think of it?" I asked Diana. She glared at me and refused to answer. Which was exactly what I had been hoping for. I grabbed the front of her shirt and pulled her up. My Whip-Hand wrapped itself around her neck. "I can kill you now," I said conversationally to her. "Of course, it won't be as much fun with just one person to torment, but I'll be able to make do." I said, glancing at Astrid.
"Torment? Big…word for you" Diana said to me, gasping as my whip tightened around her neck. I rolled my eyes. "Answer my question now, Diana, and it'll be a lot less painful for you," I said slowly. "But if you don't answer it now, then it will be very painful." I added. She tried to laugh but started to choke.

Day and night I'm looking round
Just don't know what I'm looking for
"Maybe…I don't…want…to…answer…your question." She said to me, needing to take deep breaths after each word as I cut off more and more of her air supply. "This isn't about what you do or don't want – this is about me wanting you to answer my question." I said harshly. She tried to pull the whip off her neck, but there was no point – I was too strong for her. She stopped pulling at the whip and glared at me. Then, still glaring, she spat in my face! I tightened my whip around her neck again. Her face was chalk-white and she tried again to remove my whip from her neck.
"Please, leave her alone!" Astrid cried out from beside me. My hand was still gripping her wrist tightly, in case she tried to escape. I looked at her and smirked. "If you answer my question, I'll consider letting her go" I told Astrid. She shook her head fiercely. "No. I want an absolute guarantee that you'll let her go." She said to me. I was surprised – I'd thought she was a shy, easily scared girl who wouldn't say 'boo' to a goose. I removed my whip and pushed Diana back onto the bed.
Will they carry me away?
Oh will they carry me away?
"I've let her go." I said to Astrid. "Now, you answer my question. Or else…" I added in a menacing voice. "Ok." Astrid said. "What was your question?" she asked me, her voice shaking. "I want to know when – and why – the two of you made the plan to run away." I told her. She glanced at Diana, who was shaking her head. I sighed angrily. "Astrid, answer my question or I'll kill both of you now!" I said bluntly. Diana laughed coldly. "You're going to kill us both anyway!" she said to me. Now it was my turn to laugh. "No I'm not." I said. "I'll need some people to amuse myself with when I take over the FAYZ!" I told them. "Now, Astrid, answer the bloody question!" I added, getting annoyed. "We…we made the plan just after you left the room." She told me, her voice shaking. Of course! That must have been what Diana had been muttering to Astrid – she wasn't comforting her I realised. "And why did you make that plan?" I asked, my voice hard.
I was 97 and I'm sure my brain it had enough

My sports car ain't quite fast enough
"The plan was for Diana to escape and then get to Perdido Beach to get help." Astrid told me. I laughed. "And you think that you would have made it to Perdido Beach alive?" I asked, looking at Diana. Diana glared – but for once her glare wasn't for me. She was glaring at Astrid. I smirked. "I'm tired. Sleep tight!" I said to the two girls. I left the room and quickly ran to the front office of the school. I grabbed the key-ring with one key that could lock all the bed-room doors and then ran back to Diana and Astrid's room. I locked their door and then went into my own room. I had deliberately put them in the room with the window that wouldn't open. Anyway, even if they did get the window open, it was too high up for them to jump out of.
