The Uprising
Ally's POV
I slipped on a sweatshirt, a pair of sweatpants and brown ugs to complete my "Don't care" look. "Ally they're here!" my mother yelled from down the stairs. I tied my hair back into a high ponytail and sighed. Here starts the longest day of my entire life.
I walked out of my room slowly descending from the stairs as I saw Jake's mom Jessie standing patiently in the doorway. "Ally!" she greeted. I smiled weakly at her. I came down the stairs and embraced her in a tight hug. Jessie was a really sweet person, Jake on the other hand was not so sweet. He was more like a face after eating a sour lemon.
She patted my back lightly before speaking once again, "Jake and I have missed you guys so much! I know that you and Jake aren't exactly acquaintances but he's changed Ally, he's more... sophisticated."
"Oh I bet he is." I said with a nudge of the shoulder. In my mind I rolled my eyes. Jake? Sophisticated? I don't think so.
Suddenly a guy with brown hair and hazel eyes walked inside the house. He was tall and built and wore a tank with tan khaki's. A choker rapped around his neck with silly bands going up his arm. He flipped his hair smiling at my mom. "Hello Ms. Dawson."
"Why Jake, look at you! You look so handsome! You've grown up a lot." she said going over to hug him. I stood there in shock. That was Jake? Last time I remember him looking like, was with braces and glasses the of Hawaii's islands. "Thanks Penny, oh and Ally you look amazing." he said with a smile. I blushed lightly, "Thank you Jake."
"Shall we? I made your favorite Jake cornbread with biscuits filled with jam and cinnamon for lunch!" my mother clapped her hands together as we all walked into the kitchen together. I was just about to pull out my seat when Jake pulled it out for me. I cocked my eyebrow slightly and sat in the seat smiling at him. He was acting strangely nice. Probably prepping up an act for my mom so she can approve of him being suited for me other than Austin. As if.
He sat in the chair next to me as my mom sat plates in front of us. Jessie cleared her throat, "So Allison, how is school going?"
"Oh it's going perfectly fine." As if that was anywhere near the truth. "In any after school activities?" she asked taking a bite of her biscuit. "Oh um no I'm not really into that stuff." I said shyly, pouring a glass of lemonade into my cup.
"Well Jake is really into football and baseball maybe you could watch him play sometime." she said eagerly.
I smiled, "That would be," I looked at Jake, "Lovely." I finished before taking a bite of my cornbread. Jake spoke up, "Actually mom I was wondering if Ally would like to show me around Miami. Maybe a tour?"
My mother and Jessie looked at me, "Yeah that would be great." I said sipping on my lemonade. I didn't really want to show Jake around town but if it meant him leaving me alone afterwards that was a price I was willing to take. "So Jessie, Jake what brings you guys back down to Miami? I thought you were liking how things were going in New Hampshire?" My mother asked flashing a genuine smile at Jessie.
"Oh Jake just didn't like it there, and to be honest I didn't like it there either. Things were to out of the ordinary. We also found out that there has been a criminal that broke out of jail and disappeared into thin air."
"What do you mean thin air?" I asked cutting in.
"Well this horrendous killer broke out of jail and right after that they never saw him again. It was like he vanished into thin air. Cops say there was absolutely no trace of him left behind. Not even a hair strand!" she said sipping on her coffee. I sighed, how could a killer vanish that quickly when he could have done it the minute he was prosecuted?
"But that's not even half of it. My ex girlfriend Brittany found a guy dead outside on her lawn in the middle of the night while she was going to her mom's car. That is when I knew we had to get out of there and fast." Jake stated.
"Wow New Hampshire? My grandfather used to live there, nothing seemed out of the ordinary when he was there." My mom said.
Of course it wouldn't be the same. This is the 21 century for crying out loud. Grandfather wouldn't even think of such things going on in New Hampshire.
"Well the cats out of the bag. It's all over the news. Police are staying on patrol through the neighborhoods, gun shops are closing down for the year it's all just a huge catastrophe!" Jessie said.
"Excuse me for a moment." I said wiping my mouth with a napkin before getting up and running up the stairs. I closed my bedroom door locking it and sat down on my bed. A gust of wind and chill hit my skin. "Austin I know you're there."
Suddenly a person with a red and black mask on popped its head inside and jumped. I screamed backing against the wall. "I'm not Austin sweetheart." the voice said wryly. I gulped as every amount of confidence drained throughout my body. The person backed me up against a wall pinning my arms against my will. "Where is he?!" the voice barked. "What?! Where is who! I don't know what you're talking about!" I screamed. "Where is Santos!?" He barked once again.
"I-i don't know!" I yelled back. His grip on my arm got firmer as I could feel his fingernails digging into my flesh.
"Liar!" he boomed. A force picked me up throwing my body against the wall as I knocked down my bookshelf. "Tell me where he is and I might let you out alive!"
My body ached with fire, I felt as if I wanted to explode. I got up on my feet and looked at the masked man. "No more." I closed my eyes and concentrated. I opened my eyes to see my hand glowing with a fiery orange. I knelt on the ground my bare hands touching the floor as fire rumbled across the room. The fire circled around the masked man as he looked for an exit. But he was trapped from the fire. The fire I made with my bare hands... I just used my powers. I just used my powers!
Ok calm down Ally, act mature.
"She won't stop until she finds Santos! She won't!"
I looked at him as the fire was edging closer to his body, "Who's she?!" I yelled firmly.
He smirked, "Victoria."
Suddenly the flames engulfed his body. Cloud emerged from the air damping out the fire as the masked man disappeared. Victoria? Who's Victoria and most importantly,why would he look here for a guy named Santos...?
