THE whole night Solaria had been crying her eyes and heart out. The pain she felt was unbearable. It was hard, sleeping without Chase by her side and not waking up by him. Everyone could tell that she was in distress, by her red stained eyes, dark circles under her eyes. So, occasionally Gert or Nico would check up on her, but, Ria would just ignore them.
The girl was to hurt to talk about what happened. She didn't want to face it and hoped it was all a dream that he had left and broken up with her. Her heart aches every minute replaying the memories of them, the first was recalling the first time they started to date, that memory hurts the most to her. It was a hard betrayal for all of them, but Ria was hurt more. Of course, there was a lot of things that gutted her, but none like this gutted her more painfully.
The team had gathered in the dinner room, Solaria didn't even fell like eating the Chinese that they gotten. All were there except Karolina. "I'm concerned about Chase." Nico grabs her box and sat down. "He made his choice. We all have to move on." Gert told them, "Yeah. He's a lost cause." Ria speaks up, everyone looked at her with worry and confusion on the sudden change. "Just like that? We're not Cylons from Alex's Doctor Who show." Molly says to the both of them.
Alex chuckles quietly, "I appreciate the effort, but..." Molly cuts him off shrugging her shoulders, "I-I'm just saying, I mean, what if he knows he screwed up, but now he's trapped?" She proposed and idea to defend him, "Well, then, he'd reach out. But I'm assuming he won't cause I'm guessing he likes not having dodge rats on the way to the kitchen." Alex chews more of his food. Solaria sits there and plays with hers, it was getting cold but she didn't care.
"It was only one. And unfortunately I named him after Chase." Ria muttered out to them, "Look, Chase was the first to go, but probably won't be the last." Alex told everyone, "He didn't just leave. He went home." Nico informed, "How can we be sure he doesn't tell his parents where the hostel is?" Nico questioned, taking a bit out of the steamed broccoli. "Never. Even though he's kinda a dork, dimwitted, a little airhead..." Alex sighed at Ria.
"We get that you're angry. What's your point?"
She looked up from her food, "He's a idiot. He wouldn't be a traitor." She speaks up, sitting up straight from her slouching posture. "Assuming he has a choice. They used the truth drug on him the last time. Who knows what they'll do next." Karolina walks in with a hurry and panicked expression. "My moms in trouble. Vaughn just called and said Frank sent her to the Crater."
What was the Crater? "It's a Gibb compound in the desert where they do religious trials and discipline." She explained what it was. "Sounds like brainwashing torture." Nico told her girlfriend, "Which is exactly why we need to go rescue her." They've already been through enough these past few days, this was just the cherry on top of the icing. "Whoa, what? No way. We're trying to put our parents in jail, not break them out." Alex shuts Karolina down quickly at the idea.
