Getaway

"Did you hear that?", Amy asked. Of course he did. It was so loud. You're such an idiot, Amy.
"I think it was of Trisha. Come on. Let's check it out.", Steve started to leave. Amy followed Steve.
They climbed the stairs and Amy saw the others standing there too. Trisha looked scared while Sid was laughing.
"What happened?", Steve asked.
"Miss says she saw someone going inside that room.", Idax said pointing towards a room at the corner of the hall.
"She probably saw herself and got scared.", Sid said and everyone laughed.
"Shut up, Sid.", Trisha said, annoyed.
"Let's check that out.", Steve said and he and Emanuel moved towards the room.
Steve and Emanuel disappeared into the room. Nobody came out. Amy could hear some rustling. And someone said "You" from inside and suddenly Emanuel jumped out of the room.
"Help!", he cried.
Amy's mouth felt dry as cotton as she saw Emanuel lying on the ground. Still.
The others were sacred too. But Emanuel got on his feet, laughing.
"You should look at your faces!"
"Dude! That was..funny!", Sid laughed.
"No, it wasn't.", Trisha said.
Steve came out of the room, smiling.
"Trisha saw someone after all.", Steve said.
And just then a girl came out of the room.

"Nancy?!", Amy exclaimed. "What are you doing here?!"
"Amy.!", Nancy said, moving towards Amy.
Nancy looked different. She had tied her hair in a new look. She was wearing heels and her clothes were stylish. Nancy was not like this at school.
She was exact opposite of hot. She was cold. Amy thought.
"Guys, this is Nancy, my friend.", Amy introduced her to everyone.
"We know. She gets straight A's. And plus she was class valedictorian.", Kiara said.
"You looked like a loser at school. You are looking different now.", Sid said.
"Why do you care?!", Trisha snapped back.
Why's she like this? Does she know that Sid cheats? Amy's mind questioned her.
"Let's go.", Terry said. Terry went downstairs and all the others slowly moved down.
"Amy, let's go.", Steve said.
"Okay.", Amy said and she and Nancy followed Steve.

Amy and Nancy were now sitting at the corner of the hall behind a big desk.
It must have been the reception. Amy guessed.
"So, Nance, why are you here?", Amy asked.
"That lake I told you about. The one that stays hot even in cold weather."
"Yes?.", Amy replied. I don't know where's she going with this.
"I found it. It's somewhere here.Around the area of this resort."
"Really?!", Amy asked.
"Yup."
"And what about these clothes. You never dressed like this at school."
"Well, it's the new me." Nancy smiled.
"What are you gals talking about?", Sid asked.
When did he come? I swear, this guy! He wants Nancy now. Amy shrugged.
"We were talking about nothing, Sid.", Amy said.
Steve and Trisha came there too. Trisha looked angry.
"Sid, leave them alone.", Steve said.
"What did I do?", Sid said.
"You are being a creep.", Steve said.
"Steve, Nancy was researching about a lake. The lake has an ability to stay hot even in coldest weather.", Amy said
"So?!", Trisha said.
"That lake... It's here. Right at Westwaters'", Amy said.
"Then what are we waiting for?! Let's find it!", Steve shouted.
"Yeah!", Trisha exclaimed. Soon Trisha shared the news to everyone.

As all of them were talking, a dark figure entered to the tool storage room and took out the sharpest pair of butcher knives.
