Third person P.O.V.~
Gordie had given up. They had been looking for Y/N for what felt like forever.

"I don't know what to do Chris. She just.... disappeared." Gordie threw his hands up in exasperation. Chris grabbed Gordie's shoulders and pushed him into a bench in the park that they were walking around. Teddy and Vern were asking people around town if they had seen Y/N. They hadn't had any luck so far, not even with Gordie's and Y/N's parents.

Chris looked Gordie straight in the eyes and said," Look Gordie, we have looked for Y/N in every possible place, we've asked around. She's no where. You're tired, I'm tired.We should rest a while before we start looking again tomorrow. We are not giving up. She means too much to you and me." By the end of his speech, Gordie was in tears. Chris sat down next to Gordie and held him close.

"You and her are all I have Chris. If she's gone, I don't know what I'm going to do." he sobbed onto Chris's shoulder, much like when they found Ray. "She's all I got. Denny's gone and now she is too."

"Don't you say that Gordie, Don't you ever lose hope." Chris shook his head while he cried along with Gordie. He couldn't bear to see his best friend in this state.

"I can't help it Chris, my life has been full of misfortune, why should this time be any different?" Gordie had stopped crying, but he was still breathing a little ragged.

Chris sniffed and rubbed his nose with the back of his hand. " Sometimes, Gordie, things can go right. Life has a way of working things out. I know that she's okay and she'll be back soon. For now, let's go get the guys and hang out in treehouse again. If we were all together it would probably make you feel better."

Gordie nodded.

But Y/N wasn't okay and she wouldn't be back soon. Ace would be sure to not to let that happen. The train was coming in two minutes and all of the Cobras were gathered around to watch.

"Y/N, sweet Y/N, the train is coming in two minutes." Ace informed.

"I'm well aware." Y/N was going to go down swinging if she was going to go down at all.

"Ace, maybe we shouldn't." Billy said.

"Are you a pussy?" Ace looked at him with an expression that said, 'if you say the wrong thing, you're dead.'

"No, no. It's just, she's a kid. Her brother's a kid. Maybe you should go easy on 'em." He got quieter towards the end.

"You're questioning my authority. Huh," Ace pointed his finger at Billy, " I'll deal with you later. Now it's time for her," he turned his finger towards Y/N," to beg for her life." Ace grinned maliciously.

"I'll never do that." Y/N spat.

Billy's, Eyeball's , and Y/N's faces went white when they heard the train whistle.

"You could get your brother to apologize." Ace suggested while shrugging.

"Apologize? I thought you were an asshole to them, why would he do that?" Y/N said before fully thinking about what she was saying and who she was saying it to.

"Okay. Well, be prepared to become a human pancake Lachance. Thirty seconds now, say hello to your brother for me." Ace took the yankee's cap off of Eyeball's head and threw it at Y/N.

Billy and Eyeball looked at each other in terror. Ace grinned. The other Cobras wore straight faces.

"Any last words?" Ace yelled over the train. It was probably ten seconds away at the most.

"Yeah, FUCK YOU!"


The noise of a train running over a body is something you couldn't ever replicate or get out of your head. Eyeball would surely never forget it.
