(Halle's POV)

I woke up around 1:30 PM. I'm surprised Sir isn't here yelling at me. I walk over to the rest of the gang.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"Should we tell her?" Noah asks Rebecca.

"Yeah. It's for the best," Rebecca says.

They all tell me the story of Rebecca's, or Elizabeth's, past. Wow. Wasn't expecting that from her.

"I'm not going to judge you," I say to Rebecca.

"Thank you," Rebecca says.

"So umm...do we call you Elizabeth now or what?" Nicco asks.

"No. Elizabeth is in the past, and that's where she will stay. You guys know me by Rebecca, not Elizabeth. So, just call me Rebecca. Or Beck, of course," Rebecca answers.

"May I still call you Lizzie?" Lissy asks.

"Yeah sis, you can," Rebecca answers her.

"Oh, and Rebecca and Noah are dating. Just putting that out there," Lissy says.

I squeal. "Oh my gosh, it finally came true! I knew you two would start dating, I knew it!" I yelled.

"Haha. Okay guys, I need to tell you something. Really, it's sort of a question but whatever. Do you guys think we should plan our escape?" Noah asked.

Just then the cellar door creaks open and a girl walks into the room.

"Danielle?" Nicco asks astonished and runs up and hugs the girl, who I'm guessing is Danielle.

"Hi Nicco," Danielle says, hugging Nicco back very tightly.

"Oh! Guys, this is my sister Danielle. That's Halle, Lissy, Noah, and you already know Rebecca. Noah and Rebecca are dating, by the way, Nicco explains.

"Nice to meet you all. Nice seeing you again, Rebecca," Danielle says.

"You too. So, what are you doing here? And how did you find us?" Rebecca asks.

"I don't know, I guess I just had a feeling that you were here. One time, I was driving past these woods and saw this mansion. I thought it looked very mysterious. So, I thought, "They're at that mansion. I just know it." And what am I doing here? Helping you escape, duh."

"What a coincidence. We were just talking about that," Noah says.

"Cool. Okay so, we could easily just walk on out of here and be free in not time, but where's the fun in that? So, here's what we're going to do," Danielle says.

Danielle goes on and on, talking about how we're going to escape. Her plan is pretty good so far. I think this might actually work.

This is war, Sir. This is war.
