A year had passed since Alison DiLaurentis disappeared off the face of the earth, and the five ex-friends of the powerful, vindictive girl were entering their junior year of high school.
Although it was strange to be entering another year...

Ivy was finally home from the hospital, in a wheelchair. She was currently trying to stick the sticker Spencer got to cover up the 'A' message. "Why are you taking that off?"
"I'm not. I'm trying to keep it on. Believe me, I don't want to see the autograph that's under it."
"We can get you another sticker." Spencer turned to her. "Yeah, this time, why don't you try something mellower, like 'save the planet'?"
"Hey, there were not enough of choices, it was either 'Humpty Dumpty' or 'Jesus is coming. Look busy'." Ivy peeled back the sticker.
"Oh, God, it's still there." Ivy panicked. "Ivy. Ivy, don't, Ok? Don't look at that. Just look around you, cos you're safe, you're both home, and alive."
"Well, we thought we were safe in the hospital room, too." Hanna said. "What's going on with Noel Kahn? Is he 'A'? Have you talked to him?" She continued.
"No, I avoid him. I keep telling him I'm busy. Busy freaking out every time I look at him." Ivy sighed. "Well, try being run over by him."
Emily held up Hanna's toy panda and Ivy's elephant. "Who gave you this? Sean?" She asked Hanna. "Lucas."
She turned to Ivy. "And who gave you this?" Ivy smiled. "Jason."
"Oh, sweet."
"Is anyone else starving or is it just me?" Ivy asked. "I am." Hanna replied.
"Your Mom said she left you both a special dinner in the fridge."
"Pass. I want a pop-Tart." Hanna spoke. "Mmm, me too." Ivy pointed at her.
They gave them looks. "What? I've been on hospital food for three weeks. I want to eat something that doesn't look like it's already been chewed."
"Ok, why don't you eat while we go get the rest of your stuff, ok?" Aria said. "I'll help you." Hanna looked at Ivy.
The girls left while Ivy and Hanna both went to get food. Ivy tried to reach up with her crutch. "I can get it." Hanna assured.
"No, I got it." Ivy claimed. She ended up knocking three boxes down. They looked to find money in the pasta box.
They heard the door open. "Ivy. Hey, so, if you're going to stay down here tonight, we were, um..."
"Oh, yeah, down here's good." Ivy tried to cover up how she was feeling. "What happened?"
"Nothing, she just, uh, knocked a few boxes down." Hanna put them back in the cupboard, she stood in front of the cupboard.
"You can go, seriously our Mum's going to be here soon." Hanna suggested. 'Our Mom' Ivy was trying to hold back the smile.
"Wait...so now you want us to leave?"
"It's fine, Hanna's here, Our Mom is back soon anyway."
