Ross's POV:
I ran most of the way whilst every noun and then checking my crystal. I kept seeing nothing. "Abby come on please just at least let me know your alright."
"The crystal is enough to let you know." I heard Abby say through telepathy, "Just get back to the others I shall find you later. I promise." I sighed knowing she was alright but also close by. Telepathy has a certain range so I knew she could either see me or she wasn't to far away. I also knew the tree wasn't to far away I could see my house. So I ran the rest of the way. "You better fucking be there Alex," I said whilst I ran. I needed to tell him Abby was fine and close by so he didn't go running off far. I was running so fast I almost tripped. I ran almost straight into the tree, opened it and stumbled down the stairs weirdly. I had been walking for 3 days now only stopping to rest at park benches and the occasional bus stop. I had no money so I had to just live on no food and water fountains. "Trott!" I yelled.
"Ross! No way!" He ran up to me and hugged me, a bro hug. "Where have you been."
"Almost in the next town took me ages to get back."
"Where is Abby."
"Fine and close by. Where is Alex I need to tell him."
"Don't know he didn't come back. But before that I suggest you go have a shower." He held his nose. "Yeah that kinda happens when you have no phone and no money and can't teleport."
"Just go."
"Alright." Trott acted like a big brother sometimes.

After my shower I had the biggest lunch I had, had in ages. "So do you know where Alex even is," I asked whilst washing up my plate. "He went with Autumn last night for a date but he didn't come back."
"He is trapped," Abby said telepathically.
"What do you mean?" I asked Abby out loud.
"What isn't it simple," Trott said.
"Sorry Abby just spoke to me and I spoke out loud."
"Right."
"Autumn has trapped Alex I knew she couldn't be trusted she is working for Azazel. He said so himself." I looked at Trott in worry we needed to get to Smith and fast. "Abby come on speak to me as well," Trott said.
"Fine. Alex's partner is actually dead and Autumn is a trick she is trying to bring him over to her side."
"Great," Trott said. "So we need to find Smith some how, he never said where he was going. Then we need to find Abby."
"She said she will find us later," I said looking at the ground. I wanted to see Abby, I hadn't seen her for a few days then she showed up for a few seconds and we were separated again and I haven't seen her for another 3 days. "Could Abby know where he is?" Katie asked appearing randomly. "OH MY GOD ROSS!" She ran up giving me the biggest bear hug. "I thought you were gone for good and was hallucinating when I heard your voice."
"Wait Ross is back!" Soon just a about everyone started appearing and either hugged me or just greeted me with joy. "Where is Abby? Didn't she teleport you both out," Katie asked.
"Yes but because I can teleport sort of, she was able to throw me somewhere else to her," I said with sadness in my voice and a tear threatening to fall. "Let's just concentrate on finding Smith first," Trott said turning everyone's attention.
"Does anyone know where he is," Lewis said.
"He was with Autumn, who is working for Azazel. So Alex is possibly in lots of danger right now," I added.
"So essentially we can't find him yet but we may be able to," Kim asked.
"Maybe but it's going to be difficult and I don't think Abby is talking to me anymore."
"He is a smart person what is we just kinda waiting a day or so. Maybe he would notice some thing is off," Kim said.
"He already started noticing some thing was off so don't you think he wouldn't have stayed the night and if she some how played off a good actor he would still not feel that he feels love the way he should if she was a soul partner. He told me himself that he didn't feel the kinda love, not even a spark," Trott answered.
"And with Abby saying Autumn is evil as Azazel said so himself. Smith saying what Trott said then not coming back," I added.
"But there isn't much we can do at the moment we don't know where he is," Katie had a good point. We then made and agreement to wait till tomorrow see if he comes back then I would try and talk to Abby see if she knows. She would have to tell me it's her brother and I know she doesn't want to see him turn against his friends and against her.
