Intertwined

To The Rescue

Rose and Ash were in his room, flirting and talking on his bed. When Rose brought up something else. "Ash, you really should call your friends back and hang out with them"

Asher shrugged. "I don't know.."

Rose made him look at her. "Call them back, it'll be good for you"

Ash sighed."Fine" He picked up his phone and called Mike.

"Hello?"

The voice that answered was not Mike's, but Evelyn's.

Asher's eyebrows dropped a little in concern. "Hey uh...where is Mike?"

"Asher, oh my god. I can't even..." Evelyn started to cry over the phone. Asher can just barely make out the sound of Mara comforting her.

"Eve.. Eve, what happened?!"

"Jordi...She was the...the killer. She was the reason behind all of this..."

"W-what..."

"We're locked in the school...Mike got shot and Matt's holding off Jordi..We just called the police and ambulance..."

Asher muttered a curse. "I'm on my way"

"No Asher, don't do that! You'll put your life in danger, please..."

"I don't care, I'm coming" Before the girl could say anything else, he hung up and turned to Rose, explaining everything while working to get his shoes on.

Rose stood up. "I'm coming"

Asher looked over at her in shock. "No! No way! I'm not putting you in danger too!"

Rose gave him a glare. "I don't care. She killed my friends, and she could kill our friends now. I want to see her be put into that cop car"

Asher stared at her for a few more minutes. "..Fine. But please be careful"

With that, the two left for the school.

In the school, Evelyn looked at the phone with a horrified face.

"Oh no...He didn't listen to me.."

"It's going to be alright, Eve" Mara moved over and gave her friend a hug while eyeing Mike who was resting and not saying anything.

Back in the detention room, Matt was beaten to a pulp. Jordi proved to be a stronger adversary than he expected.

He was lying down on the ground, coughing and bleeding while looking at a smug Jordi standing over him.

"I find it funny how you thought you had any chance" Her smirk grew

"I didn't have a chance, but we sure as hell did, Fisher. It doesn't matter what you have, guns, strength, lack of sanity...You won't stand a chance against everyone, even if you kill me now..."

"I'm not going to fight the others. This was to protect them, from YOU hurting them again" She was slowly inching to the gun, keeping a close eye on Matt.

"They won't take kindly to this though. Your claim of their protection is merely true in your head"

She glared at him. "You don't know how they'll react. For all you know they want you gone"

"You're blinded. Didn't you see how they reacted? They wouldn't concur with what you're saying even if you held them at gunpoint"

"You don't know that!"

"Just try and you'll see..."

Jordi glared at him, she reached for the gun. Then the door shot open, knocking the psychotic girl down.

Matt widened his eyes in shock.

"I'm sorry, what?"

Asher was standing In the doorway. "I heard what happened-"

"And somehow you dragged yourself all the way here.." Matt tried standing up. "How did you even get in here? The psycho locked all the doors"

"Uh- Lock picking-? ya doi-" Asher stated matter-a-factly.

"I'm impressed. Also impressed by the perfect timing" Matt remarked.

"How so?" Asher looked around and saw Jordi, he laughed a little and went to help up Matt. Then another sound of a gun cock, but this time not at Matt, but at the girl who was accompanying Asher.
