Austin's POV
I have mixed feelings about everything right now. I'm happy that Ally's okay but angry that Tilly Thompson pulled the wires. I've looked for Tilly everywhere but I just can't find her. I've even asked Dez and Trish to help me. Trish said she was busy and Dez ran off and is now nowhere to be found.
I sigh and continue to walk down the hallway. I'm never going to find Tilly. She's probably long out of the hospital by now. I turn to go back to Ally's room when I bump into a girl wearing all black. She screams and drops her purse. Its contents spill everywhere.
"Oh sorry," I say helping her pick up her stuff. There's lipstick, eyeshadow, and lots of other makeup. There's also a camera, a professional-looking lock picking case, a knife, and other weird stuff.
"Here you go," I say handing her purse to her. She grabs it from me and runs away, not even bothering to say thank-you.
I turn on my heel but spot a pink wallet lying on the floor. I swoop down to pick it up.
"Hey! You forgot your wallet!" I yell but the girl is already long gone.
I shrug and open it anyways, hoping to find a phone number or something. Instead I find a name.
Property of: Tilly Thompson.
I look up to see Tilly staring at me. She instantly turns around and sprints down the long hallway.
"TILLY!" I scream running after her. I'm so angry that I throw her wallet at her. She catches it and continues to run.
I take a deep breath as I turn the corner. Where did she go? I'm about to give up when I see a flash of blonde hair rushing down the next hallway. My anger comes back.
"TILLY THOMPSON!" I yell again. I move to the right, dodging Dez who's just come out of the washroom.
"Hey Austin, Want to-"
"Not now Dez!"
I keep running until I burst through the front door of the hospital. I look around but don't see Tilly anywhere.
"NO!" I yell. I can't believe I lost her. I promised Ally that I would keep her safe but I lost Tilly. I kick a rock down the street out of anger. "Tilly," I mutter angrily, "Tilly Thompson."
"What?" she asks jumping on my back.
"AAHHHH!"
Tilly pins me to ground. She has an evil smirk on her face. "Why are you chasing me? You already gave my wallet back."
"Why did you try to kill Ally?" I yell in hopes that someone close by might hear me.
"Ally who?" she asks innocently, and then she laughs, "oh. That Ally." The way she says Ally's name makes me feel really mad. She says it like it's some sickness. Like small pox or swine flu but worse.
"Ally Dawson, the girl that ruined my life. She deserves to die. Ha ha ha ha ha!" I swear I see Tilly's eyes go bright red like the villains do in those movies.
I'm not sure what happened next but something that she said must've really ticked me off, most likely the 'deserving to die' part, because next thing I know I'm pinning her to the ground and she actually looks scared.
"WHY DID YOU TRY TO KILL ALLY?" I repeat.
"I-I didn't," she says.
"Liar!"
"I'm serious!" she protests, "I got an anonymous call stating that Ally would finally get what she deserves. They said they needed some of the items in my purse. I thought they were going to pull some stupid prank on her, not try to kill her. When I heard that she was in the hospital I came here to see if it was true. To be honest I feel really bad about it!"
I roll my eyes. "You thought they'd prank her with a knife?"
Tilly looks at me confused. "A knife? What knife?"
I'm about to ask Tilly some more questions when I get a sudden cry for help. It's Ally.
Austin! Help me! AUSTIN!
"Ally?" I whisper. There's no reply. I get a stange gut feeling that something bad is going on but that's not possible. I have Tilly right here so she should be okay...
...right?
