Two Weeks Ago

Thursdays were the same as any other day for Jade West, they sucked. But this was by far the worst. Her dad was having a business client over for dinner and he wanted Jade to get home as soon as she got out of school. This meant that she wouldn't be able to join her friends at Nozu as they had originally planned.

Slamming her locker shut she walked out of Hollywood Arts towards her car. She was among the last students leaving school and as she got to her car she noticed a certain Latina sitting on the hood of her baby. "Get off the car Vega!" She growled at the girl who looked at her with a far-off expression on her face. "What, are you deaf? I said get off." Jade said in a harsher tone.

Tori stared at her for a few more seconds before she complied and slid off the hood to stand beside the angry girl. "Sorry Jade."

"Whatever." Jade said as she opened the car door.

"Wait, Jade…" Tori exclaimed grabbing a hold of the Goth's clothes.

Jade groaned and turned to face the other girl, "What now?"

Tori gazed into her eyes, "can you please take me home?"

Jade was about to say no but stopped short when she saw the expression on the other girls face. Tori looked scared, that for a second Jade almost said yes. That was until her pearphone started vibrating indicating an incoming call. Putting the phone to her ear she listened to her father ordering her to get home immediately. Jade sighed and turned to face her companion. "Look Vega, I have to get home or my dad is going to pitch a fit. Just call Andre or Cat or your sister."

Tori nodded absent mindedly and let go of the Goth's clothes. "Okay."

"Tori, are you okay?" Jade asked. The girl had been acting weird all day but right at this moment Jade was starting to get worried.

Tori stared at her friend before she smiled and nodded. "I'm fine Jade, just tired. Were you worried about me?"

"In your dreams Vega." Jade said before she closed the door and started up her car. Tori gave her a small wave and Jade drove away from Hollywood Arts, a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach as she left the Latina standing alone in the parking lot.

Tori watched as Jade drove away before she started her trek home. She gripped her right hand, massaging her palm, as it started to tremble. She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths. Once the tremors had stopped, Tori opened her eyes to find that she was not at Hollywood Arts anymore and it was dark. In fact, she didn't know where she was but she got the feeling it was a bad neighborhood. She had a crash behind her and turned to find a man advancing on her. Without a second thought, she took off in the opposite direction only to realise that she had fallen right into a trap as she met two other guys who held onto her.

They dragged her into an alley where three other men were waiting them. "What do we have here?" The leader of the group asked as he walked over and grabbed her chin roughly so that he could look into her eyes. "You're a pretty one." He said, his rancid breath causing Tori's nose to scrunch in disgust.

Tori tried to fight them off but she received a few punches to her face that left her dazed. The men holding her let her go and she fell to the ground, her vision blurry. The last thing she heard before falling into unconscious was the leader's smug voice, "let's have some fun."

A/N

It seems a bit rushed and a bit cliche, but trust me it will get better and the chapters longer. Would like to hear from you if you are enjoying the story or if you have any advice to improve my writing. Will update as soon as I can, enjoy.
