I immediately heard my sister's conversation with Emily cut off along with the lights. I saw Eli open the front door with his lock pick and silently enter. I took no time in jumping up to the windowsill, heaving myself to the side and waiting for Hanna's scream.

"Oh My God!" a shrill voice cried out, and I took that as my cue as I heave open the window. Panic struck through me as I felt my felt my hoodie become stuck on a part of the window as I tried to jump through it.

"There're two!" I heard Emily yell, her fingers going crazy on her phone. I breathed heavily. I could feel my feet slipping from their place on the window. My hoodie wouldn't budge. I looked up and saw Eli starting uncertainly towards me, but I put up my finger to stop him. I couldn't have both of us falling from the window. They would figure out who we were as soon as our bodies smashed onto the ground below. I felt adrenaline kick into high gear as I finally ripped my hoodie free, leaving a huge piece of my hoodie fabric on the nail it was stuck on.

"It's free, Em! Did you call the girls?" Hanna screamed, and I whipped my head at Eli. We can't be that outnumbered and not be caught. I could feel the cold wind hitting my skin through the huge hole in my hoodie. Eli nodded and understood. He started towards the girls, who by now we're cowering in the corner, terrified by the two monsters in Emily's room. He was just about to knock them out when we both heard car doors slamming. Eli faltered as my breath caught in my throat and chills went down my spine. Oh god this can't be happening.

Eli turned on his heels and sprinted through the bedroom door, making a break for it. I was stunned and frozen in fear for the first time. I was stirred out of my confusion when the two girls started to cautiously get up.

"Who the hell are you? Ali?" Emily questioned shakily, her voice cracking. I shook my head, and raced towards the window, just as Spencer and Aria burst through the door. "Stop!" Spencer ordered, I just smiled through my black mask. Yeah. I'm totally gonna listen to that.

I jumped through the window in a moment of haste and adrenaline, not realizing just how high a story was. My upper body half fell into a bush while my feet landed awkwardly on the ground.

I heard a snap as I felt searing hot pain shoot up my left leg, and I cried out. Probably my worst mistake I've ever made. I couldn't help it.

"That sounded familiar... It's definitely a girl." I heard from above me, as I withered on the ground for a few moments, getting myself together.

"Aria! Spencer! There's one on the ground!" Hanna yelled, directing the two girls who were about to get into the house towards me. My pitiful body laying crookedly on the ground, one hand squeezing my throbbing leg. I couldn't get caught. With a heave, I pushed myself up and took a few steps. I crumpled to ground once again, cursing.

"Stay down you bastard."

I goofed really bad on the other chapter, sorry haha

Sort of a short chapter. Please review if you want me to continue, I have two options of where to take this story, and I haven't quite made the decision yet. Your opinion matters! Please leave a review, I'm very open to criticism.

All The Love,
