Through Rayne's Eyes

Chapter 3

The next morning, Rayne took a shower and dressed in dark blue torn jeans, a black tank top with a light black jacket over it and black and white shoes. She then headed downstairs for the next activity, which was the Scavenger Hunt.

When she got outside, she was greeted by Henry. "Have you seen Uncle Marty?"

Rayne shook her head. The teams were chosen for the Scavenger Hunt. Rayne was on the blue team along with Abby, Lucy, Cal and Richard.

Cal was complaining about not being on the same team as Chloe. "Come on," Abby said. "We're gonna kick their ass."

Rayne laughed a little at that and the blue team headed out. At the Cannery, Rayne answered a question and got it wrong. "Damnit." She said. "I need a drink……" she then left and walked through the forest down a dirt trail.

Rayne suddenly heard talking and ducked behind a tree and saw JD and Kelly walking down the trail, talking. Rayne felt a slight pang of jealously.

No, we're just friends. Rayne told herself and walked the opposite way towards the Inn.

…………………………….

Day soon turned to night and the beach party went on. Shane came along and Henry went up to him. "I know what you did."

"What are you talking about?"

BAM

Shane fell down to the ground, rubbing his sore jaw. He then stood up and glared at Henry and walked away.

"Abby, have you seen Kelly?" Rayne asks.

Abby shook her head. "Maybe she's at her place."

"I'm gonna go check."

Rayne headed into the woods and to Kelly's place. The lights were all off. "Kelly?" she knocked on the door. No reply. She knocked again and still no answer.

Rayne then went in and up the stairs. She turned on the light and gasped loudly, backing away.

Kelly hung from a noose, with a stool kicked underneath of her.

Rayne ran out of the house and was greeted by Nikki. "What's wrong Rayne?"

"It's Kelly! She's-she's dead!!"

…………………

"Why would she do this?" Abby asks.

It was the next morning and Abby and Rayne were in the pool. Rayne sighed. "I don't know Rayne."

"She was so happy about going home with me."

"Did she and JD have a thing going on?" Rayne asks.

"Maybe, JD was at her place when I went to go see Kelly about going to LA with me." Abby replied. "But she's gone now…."

"Bonsai!!!!" a voice yelled.

The two girls watched as Sully, Beth, Danny, Malcolm and Booth jumped into the pool, making the two girls shriek.

Rayne then got out and dried off. "Hey, where are you going?" Sully asks.

"Gotta go do something." Rayne replied and went back to her room and got dressed. She then went to JD's room and knocked on his door. "JD, are you in there?"

"What do you want Rayne?" came his voice from inside.

"Can you open the door please?" she asks.

There was a click from the inside and the door opened, reveling JD. "Kelly's dead." Rayne said.

"What?"

"Sheriff Mills said Kelly might've committed suicide." She explained, rubbing the back of her neck.

"I don't know why she would commit suicide. She was happy the day before." He said and sighed. "Kelly had tattoos all over her body. They were about Wakefield."

"Who is Wakefield anyway?"

"You don't know?" she shook her head. "Wakefield was someone who worked here years ago and seven years ago he killed six people, Abby's and Kelly's mothers included."

Rayne covered her mouth with both hands. "Jesus, that's awful."

"I don't believe Kelly committed suicide Rayne." He said. "I liked Kelly."

Again, Rayne felt a pang of jealously. Stop it Rayne, you two are just friends, childhood friends.

"I believe you JD. Um, I gotta go. See you later." She said and walked away.

"How can he like Kelly? They didn't even know each other that long?" Rayne muttered to herself as she walked through the forest.

All of a sudden, a rope was around her ankle and she was lifted off the ground upside down. When she was lifted, she hit her head hard on a rock.

Rayne's vision darkened and she knew nothing more.
