Chapter 3:

How Brave Are You?

I didn't see Nikki the rest of the day. I wanted to ask her what else she was going to aks me. I guess not. My last class is French, Jackson is there. I haven't seen him all day. Once I see him I ask him"Yo, Jax!" That got his attention. He walks over, "Sup". I tell him"Hola" he says, "Thats Spanish retard, no wonder you're failing French" I laugh. The bell rings and now class has begun. The teahcer name is Mrs.LePelle, she's alright for a teacher, red hair, and has an arm tattoo that's an eagle. Jackson and I sit in the back of the class. Passing notes, he sends one that reads where were you during Lunch? I tell him in the nurses office.  Why? I dont know, I passed out I guess. Alright. Mrs.LePelle catches me passing the note and says"Mr.LeBow, since you find passing notes more interesting than learning French, why don't you tell the class who was the man that was under 5ft 5ins and was a general for France in the 1800's?" My heart starts to pump faster and I get all sweaty. I start shaking in my chair. I studder over my words, finally I say"I don't know" "Well if you dont tell me by the time the class ends, then I'll assign a 500 word page essay." I fall asleep and dream about speeding down the highway with the cops chasing me. I turn up the radio and it keeps saying Napolean. What does that mean? Wait, oh thats the answer. I wake up to the bell ringing, school's over. I walk up to Mrs.LePelle and tell her that it was Napolean Bonaparte. She says correct.

I go to my locker and grab all of my things, I tell Jackson I'll be in the parking lot. I finally see Nikki at her locker. I ask her"So what were you asking me earlier?"She looks confused. She says"Oh that, I was going to ask you if you wanted to do a project with me for Chemistry?" I feel electrified now."Sure"I say not trying to sound desperate. She says"Hold your hand out and close your eyes" I do so. She places something in my hand. When I open my eyes, its a piece of paper with a number on it. SCORE. I yell. Everyone looks at me all weirdly. She's not there though. I guess she left. But who cares, I got the number of a girl I'm secretly crushing on, and I just got out of Detention and writing a 500 word essay, life can get any better for me. 

I wait on Jackson in the Parking Lot and I notice Bryan and his crew cleaning it. I call him"Hey Bryan" He looks over. I put up my middle fingers at all of them and yell"Fuck You". And I laugh hysterically. Jax finaly arrives and we go to Burger King. He starts up a conversation with Teen Wolf. Connor did see when Stiles escaped the MRI and treated Kira's mom? Yes I saw it. We get our food and I drop him off at home. I head back home and yet again, I find the house empty. I check my mom's room, nothing. I go to the kitchen and I find a note that says:

Went out with some friends. Be back later.

The weird thing is, that's not her signature.

I really worried now. I don't know what to think at this point. My only idea is that she was kidnapped. So I call Jackson. "Yo, Jax, we have a problem" "What is it bro?" I tell him the story."WOAH.And you're sure that its not her signature?" Yes I'm sure Jackson. I know my mom's signature." "Alrught, I'll be there in a few minutes." While I wait, I decide to make a sandwich. Peanut Butter and Jelly. I couldn't even take a bite out of it because Jackson is already here pounding at my front door. He arrives with a flahslight and a huge book that was titled,"The Lost and the Damned." It looked old and crappy. But what surprised me was that, the author's name was Layla O'Brian. That was his mother before she died four years ago. The police found her body bloody and battered. Her body was beaten and started decaying from lack of oxygen. Flies started flying around her. Her eyes were black and she and her clothes were tattered. Ripped for slashes to the throat. It appeared like she was rapped, beaten, and attacked by wolves. The trial to find the murderers were inconclusive.His dad, Frank recalls of the night his wife Susan went missing. He said. they went to BVI for their 15th Anniversary. They went to a restaurant named, Patt's Escape. The waitress was giving him attitude and he said she spit in his food. A whole argument occured and their first night ended on a bad night. When they returned to the room Layla ignored Frank and yelled at him for ruining the anniversary. She said she was going to go to the front desk to get some air. But she never returned.
