Aaron

"Aphmau, wait!" I yell.

"Let her leave!" Garroth spits.

I turn around and punch him.

"Katelyn is right. You really are stupid." I growl.

Then I run off after Aphmau.

"What?! Katelyn-"

"Get out of my face Travis!"

Whack!

Katelyn runs over next to me, as Travis groans. We get away from the others.

"Where did she go?!" Katelyn looks around, stopping. There's 3 ways to go.

"You go straight, I'll go right." I say.

"What about left?" She asks.

"I'll go left!" Kim says.

"What the?!" We whirl around and stare at her.

"Oh, sorry for scaring you! Anyway, I saw what happened to Zane. It wasn't Aphmau. Cathy did it." She says.

"How-?"

"Ghost." She interrupts Katelyn.

"Right... anyway, good." Katelyn runs off straight.

Kim goes left.

I run right.

Aphmau

"Sounds like this girl, Cathy, framed you." Hyria says. I nod.

"I know... I don't know why, I barely remember anything..." I sigh.

"Perhaps she is jealous." Hyria says.

"Jealous? Of me? Why?" I ask, confused.

"Well, you have a family, and someone who loves you. Perhaps she wants that."

"But how would framing me help her?..."

"Good question..."

The door shatters suddenly. I scream and hide behind Hyria. She pulls out a staff and readies it.

I peek out from behind Hyria.

It's a staring contest, to put it lightly.

Between Aaron and Hyria.

He must have come by and caught my scent. I felt scared. Why was he here?

"Aaron?" Hyria asks.

"Hyria? Where's Aphmau?!" He exclaims.

"Why is it your concern? She's told me what happened, and it sounds like you all misunderstand." Hyria replies.

"I know that!" He exclaims, "That's why I'm looking for her!"

He hasn't seen me peeking out yet.

His gaze shifted to me.

Spoke to soon, damnit.

"Aphmau!" He rushes forward, I squeak and hide back behind Hyria. She mumbles something I can't make out, and Aaron slams into an invisible wall.

"Ah! What the..." he mutters.
