3000 to 2000

Chapter 6

After all that happened the class was escorted to their homes if possible, if they were not, then they were to stay at school, Though they were out on the oval instead. Though the group had stayed in the classroom.

Mikayla and Emily seemed to stick together a lot more the usual now after the incident. They were one of the few to stay at school.

It was hard of course to see the two 12 year olds without Emma and Lucy. They both felt as if there wasn't a point in life, as if their hearts were empty.

Camilla and Willow had made up with the others. The main reason for it was they had something to do instead of moping around the place. Yet also because they half missed their friends. Though they were still quite angry with the other 3.

Not everyone was happy though. It was summer who was upset, though not showing it physically. She felt it emotionally.

The incident before, plus her crush on Jeremiah was hurting her. She had only wished Jeremiah would get over Ella, yes Ella was one of her best friends. Yes she was very upset of Ella's death. But Jeremiah really needed to get over her death and move on.

Summer knew she was being harsh on Him, but it was over complete jealousy.

The bell ringing interrupted Summers thoughts. It was the kids lunch time. The group hadn't eaten all day. 'Oh my god...' Jeremiah said staring wide eyed at the small radio. 'What?!' Willow said running over.

'I... I think it's working!!' He exclaims beckoning everyone else over. 'It can't be!!' Camilla said annoyed, but amazed.

A noise started sounding out of the speakers. 'Sounds like a phone ringing...' Emeraude whispers eyes wide in amusement.

The ringing stopped and a voice came through instead. 'Hello?'.

'Gyda?!' Jeremiah yells, at the microphone he had set up beside it. 'Uh yes, it's me...'
Gyda said confused 'and you are?...'

'It's Jeremiah!! How did you NOT recognise my voice?' He says with playful anger 'anyways, we-'

'Yes I do know, Rodney and his big mouth has already gone and told everyone he could, you're practically famous!' Gyda says, Jeremiah could practically see her shaking her head.

'But uh yea, also...' Gyda said 'where're you going to stay till you solve all of this?'

The group looked around at each other. They hadn't thought of that.

'God damn that Gyda girl.'

'Still here ya know!'

Camilla stood with Willow, as always. Summer couldn't exactly hear what they were saying, simply because her eyes were glued to Jeremiah.

It wasn't because he looked nice but the concentration looked good on him.

'Jemmy?' Gyda asked in a small voice

'Yea Gyda?'

'Are you gonna save my sister?'

A look of pain crossed His face as soon as the words were spoken. Summer had know. Jeremiah since childhood, having been introduced by their parents.

summer's mother, a Scottish woman of middling stature, had grown up with Jeremiah's mother, Akaterine Young.

The two were fast friends, immigrating to Australia together in 1993, aged 19.

Over the course of her life, Summer had been in love with a great many people, but none more so than Jeremiah young. Yet Only Winter had known this.

At first, when she was eight or so, Summer had admired his memory. At that point, no one knew he had a condition, but she enough that he was extraordinary.

When she was 13, Jem was diagnosed with superior biographical memory, by a doctor in Seattle. It was that same year he met Ella rose Clark. The tall blonde had taken a shine to Jeremiah, and he to her.

In the beginning Summer and Winter had thought Ella was gods gift to earth. The three were best friends, until Ella got her claws into Jeremiah.

It was at that point that Summer gave up trying. She spent the next 7 years as Jeremiah's 'sister' and as Ella's best friend (along with Winter of course) and she never said a true word in their presence.

Which was why, even thought anyone looking in on the group would assume they were together, Jeremiah still referred to her as 'sum' and sang their happy song.

'I'm gonna do my best, Gyda' Jeremiah said finishing with a sigh.
A look of confusion filtered across Summer's face.

'What do you mean? How can we save her?' Summer said, she and Jem were now the only ones standing at the radio.

'Sum?'

'Yes G?'

'What? Are you still there? I want to talk to Jem.'

Summer wasn't one to be hurt, but hurt her a bit. She strolled over to Emeraude and Alex who were clearly deep in conversation.

'Yes Gyda?'
