Jude's been acting strange. Lexi, Abby and Bailey knew this. There was no getting past him. They informed the rest of the group and now they speculated want was going on with him. Not even Jay knew what was going on.

Bailey spoke first.

My brother's been acting different, refuses to say what's wrong.

Abby then pitched in.

He has been acting different, I'm not sure how long.

Malcom spoke.

He's been acting sickly, he's always keeping us locked.

Lexi concluded the first part.

I'm tired of his secrets, we need to know what's wrong.

Jay, Beat and Jace said their piece.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
Isolation continues to grow.

Tori, Amanda and Abby said their piece as well.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
We're all worried does he know?

Johnny, Vanessa and Malcom spoke.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
We have to save our bro.

Lars, Note and Danielle added to the list of words.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
He's the only one who knows.

Paige looked at them, with a sad expression as she told them something.

Lately he skips classes
Along with band practice

David looked on and continued to pull out the facts.

The teachers seem to know why

Abby voice her opinion on the matter

He knows us best yet he tries

To keep us all in the dark

Jax then said,

But all it did was just spark

The curiosity of our search
And question what we're worth

Jax, Paige and Lexi looked down.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
Isolation continues to grow.

Amanda, Abby and Bailey looked up.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
We're all worried does he know?

David, Malcom and Beat looked full of sorrow.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
We have to save our bro.

Tori, Vanessa and Johnny sighed after saying what they said.

What's wrong with Jude?
We don't know.
He's the only one who knows.

David looked at his friends and told them of what he did.

Time after time, I kept wondering why
I chose to follow, I was just like a spy

I discovered something
Up to now it still haunts me

I saw nothing but scarlet
On clothes in our closet

Abby gasped and fear made her ask,

Has he been cutting?
Is that why he's overdressing?

Malcom said

It has to be something,
All I know is that it's distressing

Lexi thought out loud.

Maybe that's why he's so pale
And why he looks so frail

Everyone began speculating

Has he been cutting?
Has he been starving?
It's too disturbing!

She couldn't handle the thoughts. What was wrong with her brother. She couldn't hear anymore so she ran.

Bailey!!

Abby called out. She looked down as her friends watched her leave.

She's taking this worse.
The theory makes too much of sense
Tears are about to burst
So what are our plans?

Jay then said.

We have to trap him
Make him tell us what's wrong
He can't fool us
We will find out, what's wrong

As Bailey kept running, she kept asking herself.

What's wrong with Jude?
I don't know.
Isolation continues to grow.

What's wrong with Jude?
I don't know.
I'm so worried does he know?

What's wrong with Jude?
I don't know.
I have to save my big bro.

What's wrong with Jude?
I don't know.
My tears of pain are starting to flow.
