MIKE'S BASEMENT
——Mike's POV——I sit on the couch fumbling with an object in my hands. I look towards the door hoping Eve would come back.
Then my eyes turn to the fort I made for her. I stand up and rush over and take the fort down, kicking it, pouring every ounce of bottled up rage I had on to the fort.
Kicking it one last time fully seeing destroyed, I breathe heavily looking around at the damage I did to it. Tears start to brim in my eyes, but I quickly wipe them away.

LATER...I call Dustin to come at my house and walk around pacing back and forth.
I sigh. "I just... I can't believe she didn't come back."
"She's gotta be close." Dustin says.
"She said it wasn't safe." I say, still pacing around. "She just messed up the compasses because she wanted to protect us. She didn't betray us."
"Mike, calm down." Dustin speaks.
But I ignore him. "I shouldn't have yelled at her. God, I never should've done that." I mutter to myself.
"Mike, this isn't your fault." Dustin reasons with me.
"Yeah, it's Lucas's." I agree.
"It wasn't his fault, either." Dustin says, making me stop pacing and turn to him giving him a 'are you serious' look. "It wasn't his fault?"
"No." Dustin argues.
"So you're saying he wasn't way out of line?" I ask incredulously.
"Totally, but so where you!"
"What?" I raise my voice offended.
"And so was Twelve." Dustin concludes.
I roll my eyes. "Oh, give me a break!"
"No, Mike, you give me a break!" Dustin snaps, walking up to me. "All three of you were being a bunch of little assholes! I was the only reasonable one. But the bottom line is...you pushed first. An you know the rule. You draw first blood..."
I scoff. "No! No way! I'm not shaking his hand." I shout, crossing my arms.
"You're shaking his hand!"
"No, I'm not." I tell him stubbornly.
"This isn't a discussion. This is the rule of law. Obey or be banished from the party. Do you wanna be banished?" He asks me
I roll my eyes in defeat. "No." I say sternly.
"Good." I watch Dustin walk over and grabs his jacket.
"Where are we going." I asked/yelled at Dustin. "Where do you think? We're going to get Lucas. And then we're gonna fine Twelve." He answers.
He finishes putting his jacket on and comes over to me tossing my bag towards me, I caught it looking down in thought.
