I sighed heavily. Ernest and his Father walked away into another room. It was already night. Ernest's Mother came closer to me. "We'll reject the juices from your the day after tomorrow. I have a business meeting tomorrow so I won't be able to come. In the meantime we'll take good care of you. And your parents won't worry at all! We've taken care of them too. Have a good night sleep. You'll need it," she stated, tightened the rope around my arm and legs, and walked away too. I have no idea how she expects me to even doze off a bit, I'm tied to a wall for Pete's sake! And even beyond that, I was too caught up in thought. Did Keith and Paige even miss me? Wonder where I am? Probably not. And what has Ernest's wicked family done to my parents?

Paige 

The next day, when I woke up, I heard some amazing news. School was out for Thursday and Friday because of very harsh winds! Or maybe nobody just wanted to work after all those events. Anyway, yesterday I heard Ernest say our plan was complete, and that Declana and Keith will stop being friends and everything will be back to the way it was, or better. If that's true, I might as well go over to Declana's house to see her. I had nothing to do anyways. For the first time in a long time, I left my humble abode smiling for once! I skipped over to her house and knocked on the door, as usual. Declana's parents opened. "Hello. Can I see Declana please, if she's free today?" I asked politely. "Sorry Paige. Declana went out for a camping trip with Ernest's family. It was quite short notice but, school is out anyways. If you want you can get something from her room if that's what you're looking for," replied Declana's Mother. "Ummm, sure," I remarked, and walked into the house. I wasn't sure why I did that but it just came out of my mouth. Also, I didn't know the plan worked so well as to Declana agreeing to go camping with Ernest, but I guess he knew what he was doing. I went up her stairs and into her room. I saw Buster flying around frantically and quaking. Then, I saw a note from Declana, stating that she went to camp with Ernest's family, although it didn't seem quite in her handwriting, which was weird. I looked around some more. Then, something shiny caught my eye. Something blue. Something that was shiny and blue and was sitting on the top of Declana's shelf. I looked a little closer. It was several blue roses! I was shocked. I knew what a blue rose was. When I was little, I went camping in the forest with my family. There, deep in the bushes, I saw a blue rose, growing in the ground. I got curiouser, and curiouser. Then, when I got home, I got as much research as I could find and found out the blue roses special power, and how to get it. Then, everything flowed together perfectly. Ernest wanted to separate Declana and Keith so he won't care what would happen to her. If Declana ate at least one of the blue rose petals, and went on that camping trip with Ernest's family, she could be in danger! Ernest's Father is a scientist and his Mother is a doctor, they might have been using her this whole time as a test subject, it could kill her if they rejected the juices from her blood! I've been fooled this whole time! Now, it was time to bring justice.
