The group

Chapter 14

??? P.o.v

A boom of thunder crackles trough the air followed by a loud booming noise, i pull out my phone and fearfully check the news.

"The locals are very confused of what happened but police have searched the school for survivors and they four twenty two boys dead, thirty eight girls found dead and in all four teachers. The police suspect that one of the students had a very large bomb in their back pack and this bomb exploded, combined with the horrible storm and thee bombing all family's are scared for their life ad parents and family's are mourning. I am so sorry to tell you all this and I open you are all okay, this is Katie Lea sighting out."

My heart wax beating faster then time itself. I pick up my phone, i open messages . I text a mass text to everyone in my contacts.

?: check the news

?:oh my god..

?: are they okay!? I cant loose anyone else!

?: I don't know

?: I'm here, what happened !?

?: Peter check the news

?: oh my Lord, ill go tell Kimberly and the girls

?: They have to be out there, the have went issuing before they will come back.. i just know it

?: we need to meet up, its safer and we need each other's emotional support and we need to stay together so if they find thus or if we find them we are all together, plus there is safety in numbers, bring any camping supplies you have. Linda you have the biggest house and a basement. It's safer that way

?:are you sure Shannon? the drive is to long, you guys will get stuck in the storm.

?: we can chance it!

?: i know my daughter like i know my own my own mind she is out there and so are the other girls.

?: meet me here in twenty, i have a basement its safer here.

?: on my way now.

I get up from the couch and int my chair and grab the closest bag near me. I go to each bedside drawer and gather all the flashlights and batteries i have. I go to the pantry and bring all the granola bars, i grab my computer and phone and their necessary chords. I keep searching the hOuse and i see something that stops me dead i my tracks. It's a picture of me and her when we where younger, we where at a little local ic cream shop and she had some chocolate ice cream on her forehead. I grab that and stuff it in the bag. If i find her she will scold me for leaving the turtle here in such bad weather, i grab a bag his portable cage and throw some dirt from his age in there and brick him up and put him in there. I stop by the fridge and grab some strawberries and put them in the bag for the turtle. I grab my keys and some extra clothes and put them in the bag.
I grab all my medicine and head out the door.

Driving in this weather Is living hell, especially when your in a wheelchair. All the roads are flooded up to ankle hight. Im practically speeding to Lindas house. The rain gets harder every second and its hard to ignore the intense pitter patter or the rain hitting my car, but i cant take my mind off my daughter , my daughter. Other cars zoom by in my peripheral vision (yes that's,How you spell that) and i suddenly don't feel so bad for speeding and i jump from fourth five miles per hour to sixty and zoom to Linda's house. I pull up in her driveway, she's waiting out there anxiously. I honk twice to get her out of her trance and ask her to help me out. She helps me unload and down the stairs to her basement.

'Thanks, i know they are out there i just know it, they are alive." I say knowingly trying to hide the fact that I'm scared as hell.

"I agree," she sighed. "You want a beer or some wine?" She asks.

" damn right i do!" I say trying to lighten the mood. She threw a can of beer at me labeled, 'stud bright' and i catch it and open it. I chug half the can. I set it down on an old worn down coffee table.

"Im gonna go watch for the others , the Tv is still working some ow so turn on whatever," Lin says walking of, her ponytail bobbing in Sync with her footsteps.

"Be carful," i say grabbing the remote. I open 'shwooloo' and click on what ever bull shit comes up first. Something, anything to get m mind off her.

"Oh carl why did you shove eleven carrots up your asshole?!" The annoying voice of the trashy actor echos off the walls.

Peter and Kimberly walk down the stairs with their kids inn their arms, each of them with tear stained cheeks. They sit next to me on the old torn u black lather couch. Peter has a small handheld animal carrier and sets it on the table, it was a crested gecko. Shit the turtle. I open my bag and get the turtle and set him next to the lizard. We all sit in silence. It's not the good kind of silence though. It's the eerie silence that send chills down you back even thinking about it. It makes me shudder.

Linda returns with the last of the group. We sit in awkward silence for what seemed like years but i know it was just about thirty seconds.

"Sooo, how is everybody?'" Shannon says breaking the silence.

"Doyouguysthnkthisisrelatedtotheirkidnappingtheydontjustdisapearlikethat,ididsmeresearchandtheirbodyswerentfindbuttheystillaremissingdoesthismeansomthing" Jamie says practically screaming.

"Slow down Jamie, now okey say that slower."

Jamie took. Deep breath and calmed down. "I did some research about what body's where found dead at the high school and the people that where found alive and none of the people or body's was them, the closest I got was their old friend Anna but that's it, I think this could be related to their kidnapping a while back because kids just don't disappear! " Jamie says looking around the room and making awkward eye contact with everyone in the room" Jamie says calming down .

Leya, one of Peters daughters got up and walked over to me and looked up into my eyes. " i miss k..keira" leya says
.

"Me to leya me to."
