I AM SOOOOOO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING SOONER! Life has been super crazy lately, between school, holidays, drama, and extra-curriculars, I've been too busy to type much. Really, look at my other stories. How many times have I updated? Uh, two?

Time to fix this mess the boys got us into. Well, Lily too, but…

Anyway, I need to find Cary. He ran off toward the school, so I'll probably find him there. It takes me a while, but I finally locate the blonde boy. He's curled up in the corner of one of the science labs.

He looks at me when I walk in. His eyes are betraying emotion- fear, worry, anger. "What do you want." He huffs. It wasn't much of a question, more of a warning that he didn't want to be bothered.

I reach out to him. "Cary, I just want to help." As soon as my hand makes contact with his shoulder, he flinches and whips up, standing in front of me. I gasp, and his eyes are filled with fury.

"Get out Alice. I don't want to hurt you." He says, his voice strained. His hands are flowing a pale gold, and I step a few feet backwards.

"Cary… it's just me. You know I only want to help you." I caution him carefully, extending my arm as some sort of gesture not to attack me.

He has a pained expression written across his face. "I know… I just can't-" he breaks off, his hands glowing brighter every second.

I step back again, then look at Cary with a pleading look. "Please… for Lily."

His face contorts into some unreadable emotion before power radiates off of him. It bounces through the room, slamming into my chest. I fly backward, and with a sickening crack, my body smashes into one of the large desks. The pain is unbearable and I lose all sight of anything.

But not after one thing- the look on Cary's face is one I'll never forget.

On the way to find Alice, I run into Charles. He is concerned, I can tell by the expression on his face.

"Charles, have you seen Alice or Cary?" I ask him worriedly.

He shakes his head. "Not since Alice ran off towards the school." He says.

"When was this?" I demand.

"Uh, about fifteen minutes ago." He stammers.

I curse as I turn to run to the school. I pause. "Thanks Charles!" But I don't wait for a reply.

I burst through the already knocked down doors, and begin my search. I peek inside social studies rooms, language arts rooms, and an art room before I try out a science lab. I tiptoe inside, before hearing a groan. I look down and see Alice laying not only unconscious, but broken

She is splayed put on the floor, her arms twisted around. One ends in her hair, the other is stuck underneath her. Her back is crooked, and her legs are laying at awkward angles. There is a faint pool of blood dripping from her mouth.

I gasp. Cary couldn't have done this, could he? No. He wouldn't. I tear up as I pull out my phone. My hands wobble, but I manage to dial all the right buttons.

9…

1…

1.

"911, what is your energency?"

"Well, my friend needs help… Major help."

So… what do you guys think will happen next? Will Alice be ok? Will Lily find Cary? Most importantly, where is Cary?
