This chapter is called psyche for a reason, your welcome.

~~~

"Chris?" I ask.

"Hey, Maddie". he chuckles.

I take my phone away from my ear and press the hang up button.

"Whatever."

I don't care. I'm fed up with him and I'm done with all of his games.

I make sure no one is looking and then I drop my phone in the fountain.

"Sorry, Will." I whisper. I stare at my phone sink to the bottom. Atleast Chris won't be able to track me now.

"Excuse me!" I rush over to a man in camo.

"Do you by any chance know where the Army base is? I need to uh, get there to see uh my friend. Tera Mack. You know her?" I ask casually.

The man in camo laughs and he starts shaking.

"Your the runaway! I've heard about you, my name's Greg but my nickname is hotshot. Where's your other runaway friend?" He asks. I look at him shocked.

"Dead." I whisper.

"Oh, sorry to hear that. Yeah, I can give you a ride to base if ya want." He smiles and pats my shoulder. Gawd, I feel so small compared to him. Greg is like 6' 2".

~~~~~

"Here." Greg pulls up to a large campus and stops his truck. He pulls out his bag and jumps out of the car. I do the same.

"Hey hotshot your back!" A group of guys rushes over and pats Greg on the back. He laughs.

"Yeah." He says and turns to look at me. The only problem is, I'm not there. I'm already walking away and to the big building labeled 'Base'. What a giver.

  "Hey! You haven't even told me your name!" Greg shouts at me. I turn around to look at him and the guys surrounding him.

  "You don't need to know my name! I'll be dead the next time you see me!" I shout back.

"Why will you be dead?" He replies. I laugh and the guys punch him in the arm, probably making love jokes. But he's WAY too old for me, I just needed a ride.

  "Afghanistan." I raise the schedule in the air. "I'll be taking Tera's spot in the war. Tell her she's welcome the next time you see her!" I turn around and start walking to the base. I open up the metal doors and walk into the long hallway. I walk for a little bit until a door on my right opens.

  "Maddie? What are you doing here? Where's Nia?" The girl asks. I look at the figure to my right.

Tera. I roll my eyes.

  "Damn, this is gonna be easier than I thought." I say and look at Tera.

"What?!" She throws her head back a bit and she raises an eyebrow.

  "Sorry." I say. Then I punch her, allowing her unconscious body fall to the ground.

~~~~~

That was pretty intense. Not really, haha.

So the part that was the whole 'Psyche!' was when Maddie hung up on Chris. I just thought the story had enough of Chris and that we needed to get to the main plot. =)

  I also wanted to talk about 'Family'. YAY!!!!! So me and my family were heading to the rodeo and so we passed 'Danny Dietz Memorial Highway' and for you people who don't know who Danny Dietz is, lemme explain.

  Danny Dietz was a Marine from Colorado. (Like the Marine military branch not the aquatic studier thing). Anyways, Danny Dietz was sent out to a mission to kill a terrorist or something like that and he went with two other Marines. They are currently making a movie about it, called 'Lone Survivor'. Sadly, Danny Dietz did not return from the mission. In the movie preview, the survivor said that they were a family and if they had to die to save another, they would do it. They wouldn't leave anyone behind. They were like brothers.

  I also saw a military movie my brother was watching on the military channel and it was like a documentary. It was about like 100 guys in a foreign country and 75 died from frostbite. 15 of the remaining 25 died later by being shot. Skipping further in, there were 3 guys left. Of 100. Anyways, one of the three was shot and wounded but still alive. The only way for the wounded guy to live was to put him in a bunker like thing on enemy territory. He took the risk. One guy took the wounded guy and the other stayed behind for some reason. Anyways, enemy guards noticed the two and started walking to the bunker and the living guy ran out and got shot in the back trying to lead the guards away from his wounded friend. Turns out, his friend died a couple minutes later. The remaining guy ended up being tortured but escaped.

  Moral of the story? I have no clue. Just a fun little depressing story for you. Sleep well, kids. Just kidding!
