A month later...
Happy Birthday, Cara, said, Amy.
Thanks, Amy, said Cara Happily.
Inside Cara was scared. She thought that she was screwed.
Amy then walked out the room to get cupcakes for Cara's birthday.
When Amy walked out the room Cara fell down on the floor, on her knees.
Her mom had died on when she was born.
After her mom died Cara's dad became an alcoholic. Day and night he abused Cara.
Bruises and Bruise appeared one after the other.
She cried so much, that she couldn't cry anymore.
She went to school every day with scars and bruises.
People began to ask how they appeared, she always ignored them.
When her teachers became to ask her about the bruises, she lied and said that she was learning to ride bikes, scooters, roller skates, skateboards, and unicycles.
Since she was a straight A student and their favorite student, the believed her.
Every day she went to her mother's grave.
Cara was treated as a slave.
She needed help badly.
She starved most times but shrugged it off.
Though her dad cut her with knives and ninja stars, shot her with guns, drowned her, hit her with branches, spanked her with belts, tried to kill her, and electrocute her, she stayed strong.
She knew that one day, the torture would be over.
She thought it would be this day.
She was wrong, her mother died and it was her fault.
Every day she looked up to the Heavens and saw her mom smile at her.
Cara knew that one day her mom would not be in the sky smiling at her because Cara would have joined her.
Even though everyone thought that Cara was fine when she wasn't.
On Cara's birthday, her dad hit her with the car, taped her, and shot her with the gun. Cara always survived. It was like she is made of titanium. (Get the pun. I'm listening to Titanium right now.)
Cara let a tear shed down her face one by one.
She started to do something she hasn't down in years. Cara cried.
Cara was crying and blaming herself for her mom's death for so long that she didn't realize that Amy was back.
When Amy stepped into the room, she took one look and gently closed the door.
"Ian, where are you?", asked Amy.
I'm here, what's the problem? asked Ian.
Cara needs help, and I think you should help her, said Amy.
Why can't you do it, asked Ian?
I think you would help better, said Amy.
Ian responded with a simple ok, then left to go to Cara and Amy's room.
Cara, are you here? asked Ian.
Ian leaves and close the door! said, Cara.
What's wrong?asked Ian.
It's nothing, said Cara while crying.
Ian then walked over to Cara and gently lifted her face.
Cara, it most is something, you never cry, said, Ian.
I'm not allowed to tell you and it's a long story, said Cara.
I have till' 7, you can tell me, said Ian.
I can't, said Cara.
Tell me Cara, said Ian.
Cara then gave in. She began to talk about what happened.
At the end of the story Cara started to break down, she couldn't take the truth.
Ian was that shoulder she needed to cry on.
Cara nor Ian knew what to do. Cara, I- I 'm sorry that happened, said Ian.
He was surprised that Cara's dad did that.
He wanted to give him a piece of his mind but didn't want to do it.
It was Cara's dad we were talking about.
In the news headlines, it would say Ian Kabra caught killing Charles Pierce.
He couldn't do that, it was just wrong.
Cara then ran to the bathroom and got herself together.
She didn't want anyone to see her like this.
Once she got ready she walked into the main room.
Everyone looked concerned.
When Cara shot everyone a crooked smile everyone was relieved.
Then they started the party.
By 4:00 Vikram came he sad that Charles could not make it.
Vikram said that he had a surprise for everyone. His surprise was live.
He brought 4 kids, A 5 month-year-old, a 4-year-old, and two twins that are both 5.
You guys need a change in your life, said Vikram.
He then threw an envelope that landed at Cara's feet and left.
Before Cara could pick up the envelope, Charles came in.
"Run me my money said, Charles.
"What!", said Cara.
"Give me one hundred dollars now!", demanded Charles.
"Here", said Cara giving Charles $100.
"Bye Losers", Charles said while he left.
Why didn't he say happy birthday, asked Amy.
No reason said, Cara.
Ian then picked up the envelope at Cara's feet.
He handed it to Cara.
Cara opened it carefully, making sure not to rip it.
Inside was a note that was peeking out with something behind it.
The note said...
Dear Cara,
Happy Birthday!
I have made your life more with children.
Chase told me about your new clue hunt, so I gave you a challenge.
You have to bring back these kids in one piece after the event.
P.s. I gave you $100 for your birthday and another for the baby.
Cara smiled after reading the note.
She folded the note and put it in the envelope.
She packed the envelope in her suitcase and said: "Let's go!"
The characters are still not here because Ham got them all food poisoning."
Ham groans in the background. "How was I supposed to know that the cake was old", complained Ham.
"The lady warned you", I said.
"Anyways, bye", I said.
"Bye", said Ham. "Oh no, I'm going to blow!"
"Take cover!", Cara screamed.
