Chapter 6
As I sit in my tree house, I work on homework. Dan calls my name and I run and jump out the window onto the soft green grass. I run into the house, the phones ringing uncontrollably. "It's for you!" Dan yells from upstairs. I grab the phone.
"Hello?" I say. A static fills my ears, but as I pull the phone away from me, a cracked voice comes through.
"Is…me…" The voice is definitely male. "Don't…the house…room…journal…before…", then the signal was cut off. I put the phone down and go back out my tree house when my cell goes off in my pocket. I open it to find a text message from Ryan "Hai qt. prty at mi place. Wana com? I blush when he calls me cutie. "Sur. B ther in a bit." I begin the walk when I get another text message, from Sorrin, "wher r u going? Get bac in ur hous." I roll my eyes. I continue walking when I notice a strange van following me. I turn off onto an alley way, and so does the white van. I break out into a run, taking thin sections to escape the pursuers. I eventually duck into a small storm drain. Crawling through, I hear voices echo behind me. Light emerges from the end of the tunnel, and when I emerge, I find I'm in Ryan's neighborhood. I quickly pick up a slab of cement, and place it in front of the exit. I continue to Ryan's house when a person grabs me from behind.
"I told you to stay at your house." I recognize Sorrin's voice easily. I pull out of his embrace, yet crave his touch again.
"I'm going to Ryan's." I snark off. I continue on my way when Sorrin wraps his arms around my waist again. I feel me face turn red, and I place my hands on his.
"It's a trap by the men in the van." He whispers seductively in my ear. I almost want to believe him, except I know that Ryan is waiting for me. I walk forward, back on course to Ryan's. As I approach, a cloth covers my face, and I can't breathe. Spots cloud my vision and I pass out. I can feel someone lift me into a vehicle and begin to drive. So Sorrin was right. Big deal. I lose all consciousness after this.
