{Back to Skylar's P.O.V.}
As I continue to talk to the girls, I feel the electricity come back causing me to scream and fall to the ground.
The girls get startled but run towards me to try to help but there is nothing they can do.
The electricity stops and I lay on my back closing my eyes trying to get my breathing back to normal.
My heart is going crazy.
Troian kneels down and asks, "what just happened?".
"He ... put....a metal.... thing... on my.... waist....that...shoots....electricity ....over my body", i say while taking deep breaths.
"Who's the 'he' you are talking about?", asks Normani Kordei.
Shay runs over to a huge box and comes back with a bottle of water.
I thank her and drink it finally getting my breathing back to normal.
"His name is Linus", I respond.
"Who's Linus?",asks Ashley Benson.
"We used to go to highschool together. He's the one that...", I get interrupted by the electricity coming back.
I scream which scares the girls.
I fall on my back screaming because of the pain.
The electricity stops and I breathe deeply.
"Please don't ask again",I beg looking at the girls.

~a few hours later~

"Wait I don't get it. Why would he be after you?",asks Dinah Jane.
"I have an idea as to why but it could be anything honestly. Everyone treated him horribly in high school. Now looking back, I wish I would've stood up for him",I say.
"Why didn't you?",asks Ashley.
I stop and think.
"I don't know. I was kind of a loser myself in high school for awhile until it wasn't me anymore, it was him and I didn't want to go back to being a loser so I joined the crowd. It was wrong I know but high school kids were vicious at my school. It was like a scientist made a million duplicates of Alison Dilaurentis and put them all in my school. I was done. It drove me crazy",I say.
I stand up and take a deep breath.
"Linus. I know you can hear me. Wherever you are I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I don't expect you to forgive me but please don't bring them into this. This is between you and me. So please let them go. I know high school sucked. And I'm sorry I didn't help you",I say.
Nothing happens.
"Skylar, if he's mad at you for not standing up for him in high school then why are we here? And why only you? I'm sure that there are other people that have done a lot worst things to him than you",says Troian.
I stop to think again and finally realize what he's doing.
"I know what he's doing",I say.
"What is it?",asks Lucy.
"Hold on a sec",I say to Lucy.
I face up to where the camera is located. How do I know? Because I helped design this whole place.
"Linus I know what you're doing and you need to stop. It doesn't need to get this far. And if you think I don't already know what you're planning then you don't know me at all. Remember, I know how this goes",I say looking straight at the camera.
The camera turns off and I smirk.
I face the girls and say, "huddle up. I know what he's doing and we need to come up with a plan".
The girls huddle up and we sit down on the floor.
"Ok so as to why you're here I don't know but I do know what he's planning on doing",I say.
"How?",asks Lucy.
"Back in high school, me and Linus were put together as partners in our computer class. Our assignment was to come up with a story and build a place that the story would take place. Linus quickly came up with a story and of course me being the artist that I am I went all in on the design. We got an A on it. I only worked on the design. He's the one that wrote the story. I thought of it as a cool school project but I now I'm thinking that he was serious about. He once even told me that he was going to build it and make it a real place where everyone who wronged him got tortured. In the story he made it a twist so that the victims were torturing themselves. If they said the wrong things they would get punished, the people that the one victim had with them would be chosen one by one to be tortured. I never thought he was serious",I say.
They all have shocked looks on their faces.
"Guys don't worry. I won't let anything hurt you. I'm willing to take on anything that comes our way. After all, I'm the reason you're here",I say.
