AN: So as usual, I don't own MI High, nor anything you may recognise. I just own Demi and Jamie.
"Demi this is pointless, you've been attempting to pick that lock for hours, just give up already!" My mother sighed.
"I won't give up until we are out of here!" I said. Believe me, I so badly wanted to give up. but my Dad's advice kept ringing through my head. 'You are a London, and we don't give up.' Right, one more try. Remember your training Demi! After minutes of fumbling around, I heard a click, and I found I could push the door open. "Yes!" I joyfully cried, before mentally shushing myself.
"Demi, come here." I turned and knelt by my mother. "Don't take me with you. I'll slow you down. Don't argue, just listen. I'll get out on my own one day when I'm better, and I'll find you. I promise." Reluctantly, I nodded. If she was anything like me, once she made her mind up, no-one could change it. "I love you."
"I love you too." I murmured as I walked out the door, and ran down the corridor. Surprisingly I didn't come face to face with any security until I was safely around at least 7 corners. Once they spotted me, I entered my fighting pose. But before I could attack, someone attacked them from behind. Now that surprised me. When they dropped to the floor, revealing that it was Milton who had knocked them out. Seeing my shock, he shrugged and said, "What? Didn't think I knew how to defend myself?". I shook my head, as he continued. "Look, if you're going to escape take me with you. I've already called for a car." I sighed, and said, "Fine. I suppose I owe you for taking out those guards." Milton smiled.
"Thanks. Now come on, this way!" I followed him into a passageway behind him. We're were going to escape, and I was going to get home to my family and friends.
Back at St Hearts.
"Are you sure this is a good idea Jai?" Harry asked.
"Do you have any other bright ideas to find Demi?" Jamie argued, as she stopped fiddling with the lock on the janitor's closet.
"No, I'm just wondering why we're breaking into the janitor's closet? She's not going to hiding in there is she?" Harry said.
"Look, just shut up. You're meant to be on watch!" Harry rolled his eyes.
"Yeah cause Frank's a total ninja with a broom. We need to keep a close eye on him!" He said jokingly. Despite what he said, he really was worried about Demi. Although he and everyone knew that Demi could more than handle herself, she had a quality about her that made you want to protect her. "Look, we only have 5 minutes left of break. Frank will back anytime soon, we need to go!" Harry said, looking at his watch. Jamie sighed, and said,
"Fine. But we'll be back door! Mark my words!" Jamie said, threatening the inanimate object, before walking off. "Come on Stokes!" She called to Harry.
"What did I say about calling me by last name?" Harry asked, as they walked off to go to class. However, they didn't see the person from the shadows who had been watching them this entire time.
AN: And I'm going to leave it here! Next chapter, at least one character will die. Thanks for reading! I apologise for it being short, hopefully the next chapter will be longer.
