My mind ran wild as we pulled in to Noelle's house. Mostly everything was still in bags from shopping or packed from when Josh and I were ready to leave. I was trying to figure out if whatever happened to Dash was from the bad people or the good people. Well not good, but better as in not having killed Leanne and possibly Tiffany. Wait! Tiffany!

"Josh can you finish packing for me, I need to help Noelle." I said.

"Of course, Reed just tell me what's going on." He said.

"Josh, I promise I will. You won't like it and it involves other people. If I had another choice I would choose it but I don't" I said.

"Ok, just hurry." Josh said looking worried. I ran to Noelle's room where she was fairly sane looking.

"Reed, I can't tell if this was our team or the team out to get Billings. I mean it is hurting Dash, but it is also getting us back to Easton without an excuse." Noelle said.

"I've been thinking the same thing." I said.

"Reed, I don't know what to do." Noelle said.

"Lets start with the scariest thing we can do right now." I said.

"What is that?" Noelle asked.

"Call Tiffany." I said.

Noelle's jaw dropped. The hurt in her eyes had increased within the last five seconds and it looked that seeing a little bug being swat at could make her go hysterical. The next thin I knew she had her phone out to her ear. She pressed a button that I found out was speaker phone.

Ring…Ring…Ring…

"Hey this is Tiffany, I can't make it to my phone right now. I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. Talk to you later," Came the voice on the answering machine.

"It's too late." Noelle said.

"No, maybe it isn't. We will try again when we land. She might be out of battery or with her family or something." I said. Josh came in to get us.

"The car is outside." He said. He had both of our bags so I helped Noelle.

We took a limo over to the airport. Constance, Whit, Trey, Astrid, Amberly, Kiran, Taylor, Sawyer, Scott, Daniel, Ivy and Gage had come in the car. I couldn't believe what was happening.

I laid my head down on Josh's chest. I felt bad because all of the tears coming out of my eyes were soaking his shirt. The truth is I was scared. Tiffany could have been dead. I was scared for her and for my family. I was even scared for Missy and Lorna who were pack at Billings. I was scared for London and Vienna. I was scared for Portia and Kiki. I was scared for all of Billings and I didn't know what to do. Tiffany didn't answer her phone and as much as I wanted to believe it was dead or she turned it off or just wasn't around it, I knew those chances were slim to none. Chances were that Sabine was right and Tiffany was dead or being targeted. I was afraid. I was afraid that death might actually come. I wasn't afraid of my death but of Tiffany's and all my other friends. I hadn't spoken to Natasha lately and who knows, she might already be gone. Who knew? Who actually knew what this person was going to do next? I knew that it was wrong to help two fugitives but I had to. I had to save my friends even if it meant working with the people I hate most in the world.

"Reed, it's going to be ok." Josh said.

"I hope so, I truly do." I said.

We boarded the plane and it was starting to take off. Everything was flying by. There was a conference room on the plane. It was a huge private jet. I talked to Noelle and she said once we were enough into the flight we could bring Kiran, Taylor, Astrid, Trey, and Josh into the room and tell everyone else to stay away. They would understand. I hope so anyway. I didn't know what to do and I just stayed silent like everyone else. Mostly everyone had drifted off into a sleep or was busy reading or occupying themselves in some way. I decided to attempt to take a nap. After about fifteen minutes ii gave up because too much was on my mind.

"Reed, it's time." Noelle came up to me and said.

"Are you sure you are in the mood to do this?" I asked.

"If we don't do it now we won't have the chance. We need to get ready." She whispered to me. She walked off to tell Kiran and Taylor.

"Josh, meet me and Noelle in the conference room." I said.

"Wow, we are actually using a plane conference room. This will be fun. What is this about anyway?" he asked.

"What I was going to tell you earlier." I said.

As he walked towards the back of the plane I thought about how much he was going to hate this plan. I walked over to Astrid and Trey.

"Hey, um we need you guys to come to the conference room." I said.

They nodded in approval as if they knew it was about the meeting we had. I followed them into the room and waited for Noelle to come in with Kiran and Taylor. I took a seat next to Josh and Astrid and Trey were on the other side of Josh.

"Well, you guy's are probably wondering why you are here" Noelle said as she took a seat next to me.

"Why is that again?" Kiran asked.

"Well it has to do with the meeting me and Reed had earlier today. The details are probably going to make you guys uncomfortable but if you want out get it now because afterwards you won't be allowed out." She said looking directly at Josh.

He shook his head and Noelle's eyes traveled to the rest of the table. Everyone was in. That is good in a way but also bad.

"This news in unfortunate and it is depressing. As all of you know about our little information that came from whoever AO is that went to Astrid is scary this is scarier. Sabine called a meeting with Noelle and me, and plans to keep doing so. As long as I agree she can have as many meetings as she wants because it is a way for her to 'gain her sanity and be sorry and forgiven'. I don't like it but I am dealing with it because lives are on the line." I said.

"What lives are on the line?" Kiran asked.

"The lives of anyone who has been in Billings with Reed and anyone who might get in AO's way." Noelle said.

"Who is AO?" Astrid asked.

"We don't know." I said.

"What is this meeting really about?" Josh asked.

"Well, Sabine asked something of us. As you may or may not have guessed the real Ariana is not dead but in disguise. She has Auburn hair and goes by the name of Briana Leigh Covington. The real Briana Leigh was 'friends' with Ariana, but Ariana did not change her or kill her. AO made a rare mistake. Don't count on it happening again. Ariana and Sabine have been threatened and they want to end this." I said.

"Are you actually suggesting that we help them?" Josh asked in a sharp tone.

"What choice do we have?" I asked him.

"The choice to go to the police with all of this evidence and hope they will understand." Josh said.

"Yeah because the police are such great listeners and never make mistakes. You of all people know that you can't count on them Josh." I said.

"Are you too done?" Noelle asked.

"Yes, continue." I said.

"Good, now Sabine can help us, so can Ariana but they have lost contact with each other. That is partly where we come in. Taylor, Kiran, and I will be in charge of getting Ariana. Astrid, Trey, and Josh, you will be working with Reed to make this unsuspicious. Briana Leigh will be staying wit us for a while. One of you will need to come up with an alibi for her. You also will be in charge of making plans for secret meetings and places and making sure that no one finds out about this. That no one is suspicious. My group will be attending Ariana's funeral. There we will meet Miss Briana Leigh. We will here from Sabine soon enough with our next move." Noelle said.

"Are you actually suggesting that we help Ariana and Sabine?" Josh said.

"Yes, but Josh that isn't all. We already know the information that they give us is correct. Sabine knew that Tiffany was leaving St. Bart's earlier. She then found out that Tiffany was going to be killed next. Before we came here we tried calling Tiffany and she didn't answer. It might not mean anything. It might mean something just don't freak out." I said. I heard a few gasps but that was it.

"We will meet again when we land and things settle down a bit. For now just remember, don't tell anyone." Noelle said.

Everyone got up and began to leave but Josh held my arm and so I stayed until everyone else was gone.

"Have you lost your mind?" He screamed at me in a hushed tone.

"No I am pretty sure it is here and just scared." I said.

"How dare you help them? How dare you help the people that broke us apart and tried to kill you?" Josh said.

"Why are you freaking out? I don't like it any more than you do. The hurt me pretty badly." I said.

"Reed, they shot Ivy." Josh said with tears in his eyes.

"Oh that is what you care about." I said.

"What do you mean?" He said back.

"Well just that, you care about her. I get that she was hurt but so was I. They ruined my life over Thomas. You only care that Ivy got shot! I understand the pain that they put you through and I don't like this either. Maybe I should have picked someone I could trust better to help us. I thought I could trust you." I said. I started to cry and ran out the door.

How dare he only care about what they did to Ivy? They put me through more pain than her. He should have left when he had the chance. All I knew was I wasn't speaking to him and he wasn't speaking to me. I sat next to Noelle and she nodded understanding. Josh sat on the other end of the plane.

"Is he going to blow this fro us Reed?" Noelle asked.

"Well I hope not. I thought I could trust him but apparently I can't." I said.

"Don't worry, you guys always work it out." She said.

"Well he also only voiced his concern for Ivy." I said.

"Reed, he is crazy for you. He hasn't stopped staring over here since he sat down." She said.

"Let him stare." I said. I was pissed. Josh hurt me pretty badly this time.

So…

You might hate me for the fight but…How should it end?

Should they make up?

Will Josh tell the secret?
How will Ariana and Reed be while working with each other?
