The Saviour (Daniel Atlas)

Chapter 13

I sat with Sky in front of the TV watching the news report of the car chase. Danny, Merritt and Henley stood by the computer watching in silence.

"I know he's not dead. And I still want to cry." I admitted leaning on Sky.

"Same here." She replied.

"The where abouts of the other Four Horsmen are unkown." The reporter finished and showed one last clip of the tragic event. On the screen, the car blew up. Fire and black smoke filled the air and a tear slid down my face.

"He's not dead." I whispered, reassuring myself. I stood up and walked to the opposite side of the room, to the window. I was thinking over some moments of my past when Danny wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Why are you so shooken up over this?" He questioned.

"I told you about my family, right?" He nodded his head, letting me know I did. "Well, when I told you that I have a younger sister, I should of said I had a younger sister." Daniel turned me around so I was facing him. His eyes were full of concern.

"Wh-what happened?"

"It was her sixteenth birthday and wanted to go to some party, but she was grounded. I helped her sneak out, saying she would only be gone for two hours. After fve hours, I knew something was wrong and I went to my parents. The cops found her car in a ditch, flipped over. They said she died on impact and didn't suffer."

"And that's why you're upset, this scheme recreates what happened to your sister." he stated making me nod in agreement.

"I hated this part from the beginging, but then Jack basically become my little brother and I hated in even more. Losing two siblings to an accident that could have been stopped, if I said something."

"Hey, what happened to your sister is not your fault. And Jack is fine. Phoebe he's fine. Knowing him, he's proably eating chinese food while watching the news report and laughing at the whole situation." I laughed, knowing what Danny said was a hundred percent true. "How abot you call him." Danny offered and my eyes light up.

"Really? I can?" I asked.

"If it makes you feel better then yes." I wrapped my arms around him and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

"I'll make it fast." I promised and walked a little further away from Danny. I love him, but he doesn't need to evesdrop. I dialed the number of Jack's burner phone that I gave him incase of an emergency. The others knew about it, but didn't have thenumber and we all agreed I couldn't call unless there was an actual emergency. It rang three times before he picked up.

"Hey, why are you calling? Is everything okay?" I heard his voice and almost started crying.

"Yeah, everything's fine. I just needed to hear your voice. Make sure you were alright." I heard him chuckle and knew he was smiling.

"I love you too, Phoebe. How's everything going?"

"Good. I mean there's not much for us to do, just go over what we're supposed to say and that's it."

"More than I can do. I'm alone eating chinese food infront of the TV." He laughed making me laugh as well. Danny was right. On the other side of the room, my friends were having a conversation, that looked pretty intense. Henley saw me looking and motioned me over.
