Chapter Eleven:

It had been a long, long day and Marcie was drained. Juggling the team and avoiding Hale was so much work.

It was giving Marcie a head ache.

"We are done for today guys!" Marcie called and she turned around and walked out the door. Her head was pounding. She wanted to get home and lay down and die. "Maybe I can take tomorrow off," Marcie muttered.

She headed down the hallway to her room, focusing on getting her bag and getting home when she glanced up.

Vanessa was leaning against Marcie's door, clutching a piece of paper. She looked up and spotted Marcie. She waved.

Marcie sighed and hurried to her, "What, what form do you need me to fill out?"

Vanessa bent her eyebrows and then shook her head, "No! This paper, isn't for you. I mean it is, but not a form."

Marcie sighed, "Vanessa my head is pounding and unless you want me to throw up all over you I would recommend wrapping this up. What's the paper?"

"It's a letter from Hale. Please just read it."

Marcie shook her head, "Vanessa, I have to get home. I seriously feel like I'm going to die."

"Just take the letter, please, read it later," Vanessa begged.

Marcie sighed and grabbed the letter out of her hand, "Fine, now let me go to my room! Let me get out of here."

Vanessa stepped away and Marcie walked into her room and grabbed her bag and tossed the letter down on her desk among the other papers, "I'll read it later," She promised herself. Then she walked back out of her room, "Bye Vanessa," She muttered and then she was off heading home.

When Marcie opened her bedroom door she threw her bag down and threw herself into bed.

She pulled the covers over her head and stared into the darkness, her head was still pounding, but she could tell it was slowly going away.

And slowly it did and then Marcie fell fast asleep.

"Marcie are you ever going to get up?"

Marcie bolt up in bed and blinked, her mother was standing there, in a old t-shirt and sweats her hair undone.

"What time is it?" Marcie asked jumping out of bed.

"Almost time for you to leave."

Marcie cursed under her breath, "But, I had my alarm..." She trialed off, she hadn't set her alarm because her head had hurt so much. "GOT TO GO!" Marcie ripped her clothes off the hanger and ran out of the room.

Marcie managed to make it to the cave three minutes before starting time, which meant everyone was there. And Marcie was on high alert for Hale as she dashed to her room.

"Marcie!"

Marcie jumped and spun around, Vanessa was standing there. Marcie let out a breath, "Vanessa!"

Vanessa nodded, "Marcie, did you read the letter?" She asked.

Marcie bent her eyebrows, "Huh?"

"The letter, the one I gave you last night from-"

"Oh that, uh. No, I mean I'll get to it! I'm late, or running late. Got to go!" She slid past Vanessa and hurried down the hall.

"Read it Marcie!" Vanessa called after her.

Marcie waved her hand, "Yea! Yea!" And then she turned the corner and through open her down. She threw down her bag and wrapped her hair up in a ponytail, not even glancing at the papers on her desk she turned and ran out of the room and back down the hall.

Marcie busted through the doors of the training room, panting and scanned the faces of the team and rolled her eyes, "Where's Parker?"

The team looked around and then shrugged.

Marcie took and deep breath, "Wait here, I'll go locate him." She turned and hurried out of the room, but it didn't take her long to tell some one was trailing behind her. They were trying to match her foot steps, but were a second off.

Marcie stopped and bit her lip, "Who ever you are, I'm giving you a few seconds to turn around and get out of here. Then I'm going to turn around and beat the snot out of you."

No steps were made.

Marcie took a deep breath again and turned around.

"Hi."

Marcie frowned, it was no criminal, just Hale, "I thought I told the team to stay in there."

"You did."

"That was leader commands. When a leader tells you stay put, you stay. What if I was testing you, you would of failed."

Hale frowned, "What's your problem Marcie?"

Marcie rolled her eyes, "Like you don't know."

"I don't."

Marcie shook her head, "Get back with the team. Now. That's an order," She spun around.

Hale put his hand on her shoulder, "Marcie."

"Go!"

"But-"

"I said go."

Hale removed his hand and stuck it in his pocket. "Ok," He whispered and turned around and walked down the hall, not even glancing back.

Marcie shook her head and pressed her back against the wall and shut her eyes.

What was going on?
