Phoenix, Kris, Mimi, and Quinn walked up to the cage where all of their friends were.
"Where did they even buy a cage this big?" Mimi wondered.
"Our friends are trapped inside a cage, we have three unconscious bodies in the forest, and you're concerned about where they bought a big cage?" Quinn rolled her eyes.
"I thought it was interesting. Geez." Mimi said.
They all walked around the cage and tried to find an opening in the bars, but there wasn't one.
"Daniel, why are you here?" Phoenix asked when she got to the side of the cage where Daniel was tied up.
"Alice and Billy said that they were working with me. To destroy Wonderlust. They wanted the town for themselves apparently." Daniel explained.
"Why were you trying to destroy Wonderlust?" Kris asked.
"It's a terrible town full of terrible people. I thought that I could take the good people, and make a new town with just them." Daniel sighed.
"Who were the good people?" Phoenix questioned.
"You, Kris, Alice, Billy, and me." Daniel listed.
"Wow thanks." Mimi rolled her eyes.
"That's wrong." Phoenix shook her head.
"Of course it's wrong! I realized that. You have to let me go." Daniel pleaded. "I can make things right."
"You think that I'm just supposed to trust you?" Phoenix raised her eyebrows.
"Yes. It's the only way." Daniel nodded.
"No. Phoenix, don't listen to him. You may have kissed this guy a couple times, but he did not care about you. Look at Eric, look at your mom, look at all of these people in this cage! If you let Daniel go, it'll be over." Quinn went to Phoenix's side.
"Stay out of it Quinn." Daniel groaned.
"No. She's right. You're staying here until we get everything figured out, and everything back to normal." Phoenix agreed.
"Are the rest of you okay?" Kris asked.
"A little beaten up from when Alice and Billy literally grabbed us, but we'll be fine." Ella responded from somewhere in the middle of the people.
"Okay good. We'll be back for all of you after we make sure that everything is taken care of, and we get bolt cutters." Quinn explained.
"Bolt cutters?" Kris asked.
"Yeah." Quinn nodded.
"Fun." Kris approved.
"Okay, we'll be back. Ella, make sure that Daniel doesn't go anywhere. Tanner, are you in there?" Quinn asked.
"Yeah, I'm here." Tanner called.
"Tell me what you know about where everyone is." Quinn called back.
"Okay, Slade, Manny, Ram, Ella, Mona, Rebecca, and Crystal are all here." Tanner reported.
"What happened to Gabriel?" Phoenix asked.
"He tried to run from Alice and Billy. He got shot." Mona grinned.
No one really liked Gabriel. He was a bit of a mean person with a lot of problems.
