Chapter 2

“and that’s all for today, class. Remember to hand in your assignments on by desk by Monday Morning at the latest. Class dismissed”

Finally, school has finished for the day. That physics class dragged on FOREVER. I mean, Physics is alright, but i’m not like Claire, the physics boff. This reminds me, i need her to help me on my project on Velocity-Time when i get home.

By the time i had finished making mental notes in my head, the whole class had left the lab. Better hurry, i know i Mikey gets when i am late home. Worried.

So i grabbed my books from my locker and started walking away from Morganville High to the Glass house. I plugged in my ipod and starting listening to Taylor Swift, occasionally singing along to the words. By the time the next song finished i was stood outside Common Grounds, the coffee shop.

What the heck, i haven’t had a drink since lunch and hey, it is almost 100 degrees out here, so i may as well make a detour.

As i walked into Common Grounds i went straight for the counter and ordered a chocolate frapp, just as Oliver came out of the back.

“hello Ellie, how are you” he asked whilst preparing my drink.

“fine, haven’t killed anyone today so far Ollie?!” i said with a smirk.

I liked annoying him because i never got over what he did to my brother; killed him and trapped him in the Glass House. So, Oliver and I never sure eye-to-eye.

“not today. But that could always change Elinor” he added seriously.

“okay then, I’ll watch my back, thanks for the drink.” i said sarcastically as i paid him my money.

I walked back outside to be greeted with a wave of heat, which you never really get used to here. And with that, i was on my way.

It took around 5 minutes to get home, with the occasional ‘hello’ or ‘how are you’ to the neighbours.

But as i got my key out for the door, i swore i could feel someone watching me from behind, so i cautiously turned around to find...nothing. At. All.  Oh well, i was probably imagining things as i opened the door to my home.

“hey guys, i’m home!!” i greeted loudly as i dumped my bag in the hall and walked into the lounge.

Shane was, as always, on his zombie video game, and so was Michael. Claire was studying on the floor and i could hear clanging in the kitchen which i guessed was Eve.

“hey El, wanna Coke” i heard Eve shout as i plonked myself onto the sofa.

I accepted and about a minute later she came out carrying 3 cokes in her hands. I thanked her and got my homework out.

“So Ellie, how was your day at school” Mike asked, not taking his eyes off the stupid game.

“alright, a bit dull, but, hey, school!” i replied.

“oh, and that reminds me, Claire could you help me with my physics project, its on Velocity-Time...” i asked hopefully.

“sure El, i love Velocity-Time!” she said excited.

“well, what i need to do is..........”

3 hours later

We were all joking and laughing sat around the table, whilst eating barbecue that Shane had brought home from work.

That was when the doorbell rang.

We all looked at each other whilst Michael went to the door to open it. then Amelie breezed in.

“hello there. Sorry to interrupt your meal but i am afraid we have a problem” Amelie said kindly, but firmly.

“and what might that be?” Michael asked, clearly getting worried.

“well, we don’t exactly know how this happened but, i am very sorry to say that Dean has broken out of the prison we put him in, and is out somewhere in the town”

Everyone froze, and Shane tensed up. Claire looked like she was going to cry, and she had every right to. Dean had almost killed her before. But before anyone could say anything Amelie continued.

“but that isn’t the worst part. Whilst Dean was in jail he left lots of little messages on the wall, and he left one just minutes before he escaped.” Amelie said.

To break the long silence, Shane said, “well, what did it say?”

Amelie then answered, “well it said, ‘i am moving onto my next target to attack. Elinor Glass’”.
