HANNA POV
"Hanna, it's not what it looks like." Miranda blurts out. Caleb looks at her, puzzled.
"It isn't?" Caleb steps away from her. Miranda nervously smiles at him and looks at me.
"Okay, okay slow down. First, I just discovered I had a half-sister, and you guys are here making out?" I stare at them in disbelief.
I put my hands on my hips, continuing. "Is that it, because trust me she isn't getting out of here. Ghost or not, no one is getting out of here Caleb. Ghosts can't cross the freaking gates outside!"
Aria laughs a bit. I smirk and she walks out of the kitchen with me. I sit on the floor, looking down at the hardwood. "Okay, I have something to tell you guys."
I bite my lip slightly, a bit afraid. "Hanna is-"
Suddenly, Miranda comes inside the house, and they all look at her.
"We have two days, Hanna, two days!" Miranda exclaims.
"I've been frustrated, but not only for you to come back." She adds. "I wanted to come back too." Miranda is still looking down. I don't say anything for a while, but I give her a half smile.
MIRANDA POV
I look and I see Hanna and Caleb smiling at each other. She looks down, and Caleb tilts her chin up, kissing her tenderly. I look at the two, a few tears forming in my eyes. I can't tell if they are tears of happiness or sadness.
UNKNOWN POV
I look inside through the window, but quickly draw back when someone looks. I pull down the sleeves on my black hoodie, and send a text to the three liars.
'One down, three to go! –A'
PRESENT, DECEMBER 22ND, 1:02PM, HANNA POV
Caleb and I are sitting in the living room, currently watching Miranda trying to plan everything so I can come back.
"Okay, okay we have two days now." Miranda paces around the room. "We need to think of something."
"Yeah, no shit, Sherlock." I say, sort of tired of the past events.
"Wait a second." Miranda pauses to look at me. "I know you aren't fully gone, but do you think you have a jar?" Miranda looks at me, serious.
"It could happen; we need to ask Mr. Collins." I sit up from the couch to look at her. We all get up from the couch and we leave to go to the other house.
"Mr. Collins?" I call out as we shuffle around the room, trying to find him. We start heading upstairs, searching for him. I look in Mrs. Grunwald's room and there is a note on the desk. I pick up the note and read it.
'He may be gone, search for him bitches, or you're next. –A'
I shiver at the words written on the paper. Does A know I'm alive?
I breathe in a breath and throw the note back down. Miranda enters the room and looks at me.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Miranda asks, walking in the room.
"Um, nothing." I say, covering the note. Miranda looks at me, puzzled, and grabs the note to see before I can say anything.
"Who's A?" Miranda asks me. I bite my lip and look down.
"No one, it's just-"
Suddenly, A comes crashing through the window. Miranda and I scream in unison. I grab her hand and we pop outside out of the house. A runs out of the house, and runs to us. I quickly open my hands out and lightning hits A. A hits the ground, cringing. I walk over to A slowly, and scared.
I look down at A, nervously. I slowly remove the mask from A's face. I gasp and my eyes widen.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I scream at the person.
IN ROSEWOOD, 2:28PM, SPENCER'S POV
"Guys, I think A is out of Rosewood. I mean, when did you guys hear from A?" I ask the girls. Alison shrugs, and types on her phone. The other girls don't look too amused, but bored. "This isn't the end, don't you know that?" I exclaim and the girls look up at me.
"Maybe it is, maybe we were too strong for A." Alison says, her eyebrows lining in sadness.
"Too strong, Ali?" I ask her. "I was almost choked by A, Aria was trapped in a box by A, and Emily was trapped in a barn with a starting car." I remind her, sort of irritated. She looks down, frowning. She walks out of the room.
Alison pov…
I walk out of the room, holding the frown. The minute I'm out, I smile deviously. Max pops in and she smiles.
"Go back to what you were doing, Ali." Max whispers. I laugh quietly and I pop out of the room.
SPENCER POV
"Do you think A could be in Ravenswood?" Aria asks, trying not to sound suspicious about Hanna.
"It could be, but for what reason." I state. Scratching my head, I grab my laptop and start to do more Ravenswood research.
"What are you doing?" Emily says as she sits next to me.
"Doing research and making connections." I answer as I type on my keyboard. Suddenly, I see Aria's name on the Ravenswood site. "Aria, why are you on the Ravenswood site?"
BACK IN RAVENSWOOD, 3:08PM, HANNA POV
I look down at A, nervously. I slowly remove the mask from A's face. I gasp and my eyes widen.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I scream at the person. Alison looks back at me, nervous. I pull her up forcefully and she looks at me, unable to speak. "How did you know I was here?" I exclaim, putting my hands on my hips. Miranda runs away, back into the house. Alison stops the innocent look and she smiles widely and her eyebrows line deviously.
"Max, you can come out now." Alison says, never looking away from me. Max steps from behind her, smiling. This was way past freaky, both having curly perfect blonde hair, sun kissed skin and frilly dresses. How could I miss this?
"Are you guys, um, are you-"
"Related?" Alison answers for me. "How could you miss this?" She asks, repeating my thoughts, smiling. She steps closer to me and cockily smiles.
"You will be gone, permanently." Alison smiles and Max giggles. I raise my hand to throw lightning at her, but she shields herself with a blue force field of magic.
"What the hell?" I say as I step back. "You can't have those powers unless-"
"Unless I was dead?" She laughs. "Sweetie, you should know all things truly wicked start from innocence." She looks at Max, and then at me, flipping her curly blonde hair. "You really think I changed?" Alison looks at me, her lips curled up at the ends.
"You bitch." I shake my head and my eyes flicker red for a second.
"Careful Hanna, you wouldn't want to lose that temper of yours now would you?" Alison tells me, smirking. My stare changes to a glare and I slap her face, hard. Alison looks back at me, feeling her cheek. Her eyes flicker to red and she pushes me onto the ground. I look at my shoulder and it's bleeding. I stand up and I grab a hold of the collar on her dress.
"Don't ever talk to me like that again." I whisper to her. "I'm not your puppet, bitch." I raise my hand and lightning goes straight into her chest. She falls to the ground, her chest aching and she looks at me, sort of scared. I look at my hands, and tears start to trail down my face. "Who am I?" I think to myself. "Stay away from me, Ali." I exclaim, running into the house, crying.
I run into the guest room and sit on the bed, covering my face and sobbing. Miranda hears me and walks into the room. "Hanna, your shoulder, it's bleeding." Miranda grabs a paper towel and wets it. She brings it over and puts it on my shoulder.
"What have I become?" I look at her, completely vulnerable.
"Hanna, you are exactly the same." Miranda responds quietly. I look at her, my eyes glossy again.
"I threw lightning at my old friend." I cry, looking at her.
"She hurt you, she betrayed you, and was never a good friend to you." Miranda comforts, and I look at the ground.
"This is insane." I tell her, looking down. "We have two days, and I don't even know if I'll make it at this point." I state in a depressed voice. Miranda wraps an arm around me, half hugging me. I continue looking down, another tear falling from my face.
BACK IN ROSEWOOD; 5:01PM; SPENCER'S POV
"Aria, why are you on the Ravenswood site?" I ask Aria, looking at her name on the page. Aria hesitates to answer.
"I-I am?" Aria stutters. One of my eyebrows goes up and I look at her.
"Yeah you are. Are you keeping something from us?" I interrogate, once again. As Aria is about to respond, Alison walks in, adjusting her hair and she smiles at us.
"Hey- hey what happened to your cheek?" Emily asks Ali. Ali feels her cheek, and shrugs, smiling.
"I probably just scratched my face or something." Alison answers, brushing her hair back before sitting down. I raise my eyebrows slightly at Alison; she's always been a great liar. I chuckle and she looks at me.
"What's so funny?" Ali asks me, frowning. I shake my head, forgetting about it. So much tension between the three of us since Hanna isn't coming back right now.
"I have to go." Aria says after a long silence. She gets up, waves to us and leaves.
"I do too, because it sounds like someone doesn't trust me." Alison snaps before leaving.
"Something freaky is going on, please Emily; you're the only person that can make sense right now." I plead Emily.
"I know, Aria and Ali are too suspicious. I think Aria has connections to Ravenswood." Emily looks at me, serious.
"And Alison is meeting with people we don't even know." I roll my eyes. Emily chuckles, and soon it gets quiet.
"Have you heard from Hanna since-"
"No, have you?" Emily quickly replies.
"No, but I hope to hear from her soon." I shake my head and I bite my lip in frustration. Suddenly, Hanna pops next to me and Emily and I flinch.
"You guys can't trust Alison. She is definitely lying when she said she changed." Hanna warns us.
"Why?" I ask, curious. She looks at me and shakes a bit. Suddenly, Alison enters the room and Hanna stays extremely quiet.
"I forgot my makeup bag." Alison smiles and picks it up. She adjusts her tight pink dress and smiles at me. She adjusts her blonde curls in the mirror, and smiles. Alison puts a pink lip gloss on and smiles at herself. "I'm going out for a bite to eat with Aria; I'll see you guys tomorrow." Alison tells Emily and me, smiling still. We still don't reply to her, and she chuckles. "Bye guys." She winks and looks at Hanna at the corner of her eye. I catch the look and I look at Hanna when she leaves.
"She knows?" I exclaim. Hanna's eyebrows furrow in fear.
"I can't talk about this now, she's watching me." Hanna explains, extremely scared as she looks around the room. "I don't even know how I'm going to come back."
My eyes widen at her last sentence. "Hanna, what happens if you don't?" I ask her, alarmed.
Hanna takes another scared look at me. "I'll be gone forever." She whispers. Emily looks at the both of us, sharing the same look as Hanna.
"We can't stop A without you." Emily wipes a tear away. "I can't lose another person in my life. I mean, my dad is in the hospital, my ex is dead-"She cuts herself off with a silent sob. Hanna comforts her in a tight hug.
"About A…" Hanna hesitates to say. "I know who A is." Hanna whispers really softly. Emily and me look at her with widened eyes and dropped jaws.
"Who?" We whisper. Hanna looks at the both of us and takes a breath.
"Alison, is A." Hanna whispers. Suddenly, a gust of wind enters the room, taking Hanna away.
"HANNA!" Emily and I scream, grabbing her hands.
"HELP!" Hanna screams, trying to pull herself back. The gust of wind stops and Hanna falls back into the room, her face wet with tears. Emily and I hug her, looking outside the window, stunned.
DUNDUNDUN! You didn't expect Alison, did you? Oh… you did?
Darn it! Well, I hope you guys are love, love, loving this!
