--------------------------------------------------

"You're-" I've only known Travis for a few days, and I've never saw him look angry. Why was he angry? What did this group do? He took slow steps back before clenching his fists. "I bet she did this. And you listened to her." I didn't have words to say, because I knew I was true.

Before I could formulate a response, he left. Now, wasn't he being a bit immature? "You got yourself in some problems, Princess?" I knew it was him. The guy who I desperately wanted to punch in the face. If any of this got to my mom, I knew that I'd be dead.

It was most likely that Travis was going to tell Aphmau, considering he was in her second period. Which also means, when I get home, I should expect the worse from her. 

Aphmau was always one to be a snitch. It annoyed me. 

Mom was always one to be protective. Which also annoyed me.

"Because of you? I sure did." I replied sarcastically, getting back in tune with real life. "Whatever, c'mon." He pulled me against my own will, carrying me towards the school's entrance.

I growled as I was practically being dragged, glaring daggers to the back of his head. I grunted before getting up of my feet, to prevent my shoes from wearing down. In the process of this journey, I yanked my hand away from his grasp, scolding him for holding too tight.

"Where are you even taking me?" I resisted myself from adding a name at the end of that sentence. I thought I was being taken to my death. It would be horrible to be murdered by this guy. No offense. Who am I kidding? He should take much offense to that.

I realized that I was saying all of that in my  mind, and he couldn't actually hear it. What I did realize, was that we were nowhere near the campus. Which was strange, we didn't walk very far did we? I examined the area as my eyes widened. This was the park that was close to my house. Too close.

My mom was off from work today, even though it was a Monday. Knowing her, she probably took a week vacation to spy on us at school. Which was be bad, considering I'm not in it. I glanced at my watch to see that there was only fifteen minutes left of second period. Break was next, and if Travis didn't tell Aphmau of the events, she'll be sure to notice that I was out of school.

She's very nosy, and has to get involved in everything, but I could really care less.

"We're going over there." Kaito finally responded after quite sometime. I followed his finger, and it led to a more secluded part of the park. "There's a clearing that we normally go to. Don't tell anyone." I raised my hands up in surrender as he glared at me. I followed the male over to where he led me.

Getting to the 'clearing' was a hassle. There was a path made out, where you could tell that they came here a lot. I came out with a few scratches, considering that there were thorns on the trees. 

I looked at the people who were residing at the spot, as I resisted from scratching my arm. It was exactly what I expected it to be. A small area cleared out, with trees surrounding it. This was obviously not a place to be at night. There could be bears, or wolves. Even though this is a park area.

Which brought me to think how the park owner did not know of this. Wasn't he or his workers supposed to look throughout the whole park? Unless they didn't own this part, they should know about it. "Go sit down~" I felt my body being pushed as I almost fell to the ground. I glared at him before walking over to the purple haired female.

"Trish.. I thought-" "Yea, don't talk about that. I didn't even know about this." I nodded slowly before taking my phone out. A missed call from Aphmau, and two texts. One from Aphmau, and one from an unknown number.

I didn't bother to look at her text because I already knew what it said. Before I could open the text from the unknown number, I was interrupted with a poke on my shoulder. I looked over to see Trish pointing towards Kaito, who stood at a tree. My eyes wandered to examine the tree, seeing that it was a bit taller than the others. I could see faint writing on it.

I pushed myself off of the log that  sat on and strolled over to the male. I now remembered that I didn't even know much of this gang. Heck, I didn't even know the name of it. I merely knew three members.

As I hesitantly stood in front of him, he motioned to the tree's bark. Although that's not what I was looking at. I eyed the small pocket knife in his hand, wondering why he had the weapon. 

As if the male read my thoughts, he told me 'It's for the tree, if you would look, you wouldn't get the wrong idea' I did as I was told, and I saw words on the tree. But as I looked closer, I realized they were names. I looked up at him in confusion. "Do you want me to write on it?" 

The male simply rolled his eyes as he shoved the knife in my hands, walking off somewhere else. He didn't have to be so rude about it. A simple 'yes' would've been nice. 

I flipped the knife open and simply carved my name a bit farther off from the others. Before returning the knife, I looked at some of the other names. Of course that egomaniac had to have the biggest names out of the estimated thirty.

Some had been imprinted in fancy writing, whilst others were plain and simple, like mine. I also saw that Trish and I weren't the only girls, there were two others. Lucinda, and Nicole.

As my eyes continued to wander over the tree, a specific name caused me to drop the knife that I was holding. Travis?

I mean, he's not the only person with that name in our school, right?

It would explain a lot if he was. But it could be a coincidence. 

I slowly picked up the knife, eyeing the name suspiciously. I took out my phone as I walked over to the male, ready to return the knife.

You didn't leave with them did you? 

I scoffed as I immediately recognize it as Travis. But how did he even get my number? Anyway, that wasn't the problem. How dare he walk away from me, and question if I left with them.

It also raised my suspicions further. How did he know about 'them'. Even the talk that he had with Trish earlier. I threw the phone back in my pocket before rolling my eyes, and tossing the small weapon back into Kaito's possession.  

The question stuck to my mind as I returned back to my seat. 

Was Travis in this gang?

The gang's name that I have yet to find out. Silly me.
