Maybellen
"Zee," I called him while we stood outside the sniper's building.

"Hmm?" he responded.

"Are you sure you want me to live with you? We're seniors in high school," I asked him.

He groans and walks next to me.

"I want you to, so stupid of you to ask," he replied.

He stopped and looked at me. His eyes were intense and I could feel anger radiating from him. I knew he wouldn't budge.

He puts the passcode inside and the metal door opens.

Then he put his fingerprint on this metal thingy and another door opened leading to the entrance.

Everybody stopped what they were doing and stared at us.

"Maybellen!" Aurelia squealed and wrapped her arms around me.

I hugged her back and put my neck on her shoulder. We stayed like that for a few moments, basking in our friendship's warmth. I stepped back and looked at her, smiling.

She let go and smiled, "I've missed you so much, everybody has."

When Aurelia walks over to Zee, she stares at him for a moment.

"You did it again you player," Aurelia mumbled.

My mother walks over to me and hugs me.

"I'm so glad you're safe," she whimpered.

She lets go of me and holds my face. "My beautiful daughter."

I walk over to Zee and he kisses my forehead.

"Let's go get our stuff," he says.

We walk upstairs and to our "room."

Emily and Theodore were once in this room. We all were once in this room.

After grabbing a suitcase, I started packing everything.

Walking inside the bathroom, I grabbed the old rug they never removed or replaced. It just stayed there.

I see a white paper folded. I opened it and saw it was a letter. I read it and felt my heart sink.

It had Theo's name on the top and it has his handwriting.

"Zachary or Maybellen I don't know but if your reading this I probably already been trapped with Emily. I overheard while cleaning the lounge room that someone would trap me and Emily. And torture us. We will be kept in a cold, shivering, dark room in a sound-proof basement. The same woman that was talking behind the door came out with an innocent smile.

I don't know what we have done. All I know is that it has to do with you and Zachary.

Diego and this woman have teamed up.

Be aware of a brown skin girl. Her hair is brown, her body is curvy, and her eyes are brown.

The only thing I know about her is that she goes by the silencer.

Moreover, she's the real mafia boss of the Snipers.

Please find us before it's too late.

The note was stuffed into my pockets as I looked at it with shaking hands.

Brown skin girl, brown hair, brown eyes?

That could be anyone.

Zach walks inside the bathroom and sees me with teary eyes.

I take the note out of my pocket and hold it on his chest.

His face was filled with confusion and worry.
