Will Shackles checked his watch, it was nearing 8 o' clock. He walked on the pavements to the torturous building they call 'school', with his best friend, Sam. Storms brewed on the emotionless horizon promising nothing but icy winds whipped to level even the mightiest of trees. Torrential rain poured down in icy sheets like silver, sharp needles upon Will's face. The rain was not falling: it was driven, hard, merciless, torrential. The trees did not sway, but they creaked, bent, rustled and moaned as their fine limbs were ripped away and their autumnal leaves of fiery reds, blazing oranges and dirty yellows became not confetti, but ammunition in the gale.
Yet Will couldn't get rid of his recurring dreams of the past few nights, of him in jail. "Why him?" he thought.
"Will?"said Sam.
"Will?!" speaking with an abrupt voice this time, interrupting his thoughts.
"What?"said a confused Will.
"Are you alright? I mean you seem pretty..."
Sam was interrupted with a long-wailing scream. Blue and red lights flashed through the mightiest of rain. The police car parked, and a large figure, with the build of a professional wrestler came out, in all black uniform and strided towards Will. Will paused in his footsteps.
"Will Shackles,"he said in his husky voice."Have you seen this person?"
He showed Will a photograph, with the same blue eyes and the same windswept locks and the same brows and lashes. Will could feel his heart beat... every single pound in his chest. The hairs on his arms stand to attention, as an army of chills march down his spine. Sam stood by him, tense.

"Robert", said the demanding voice of Miss Shack, whilst taking the register.
"Here miss"
"Maya"
"Yes miss"
"Will"
"Will?"
"Has anybody seen Will?"
"How about you Sam?"
"No miss."
Guilt and fear sat in Sam's throat, pestering his insides.
