S P R I N G B R E A K! J U S T the kind of two words that a person like Marcus Vega would be savoring but that particular day was quite different for him, following the punishment that the principle had handed to them after the basketball incident.
"Oh, you better put this week into good use!" his twin sister was saying as they walked out of school, "cause it's all you're going to get!"
"Buzz off!" he retorted and Carmen tittered away towards Cassie and Natasha.
She bumped into Scott who blocked her path.
"You can't keep avoiding me," he started in his deep and calm voice.
"Watch me!" Carmen hissed back and the football captain stepped aside as he had done several times before when Carmen had iced him out over and over again.
Natasha on the other hand, had been busy all day trying to locate Xander.

There was a street lamp about a foot away from the house, the little amber light it cast revealing that the house was of two floors, with a dark window on the upper floor. The lamp began to flicker just as a light gale swept a litter of dried leaves across the porch of the house, with some even brushing against the window. With a crackle, the light from the lamp dwindled out, enveloping the area around the house in total darkness, leading up through the window into an even darker room where soft noises of someone breathing could be heard as if they were asleep. One of the window's panes suddenly flung open
"K R I S T I N A J O K O V I C, Y O U are hereby sentenced to seventeen years at the Atlanta Maximum Penitentiary without the possibility of early parole for partaking grand larceny in the third degree, terrorism and murder . . ." These had been the words of the magistrate who in conjunction with the Jury after the infamous 'Speedster Killer ' had been apprehended by Captain Susan Claire, following the events that had unfolded a year ago. Kristina had decided to turn herself in even though at the time it had been more of a fight-to-the-death situation when she had taken on the Viper. Little did she know however, that all that was about to change—in the present. . . ⚡⚡⚡ Miss Hortense was just taking out the last batch of cups that had been scattered all over the manor.

It was a resumption to normal learning, however, everything about the first week was nothing but normal (which is a bit of an understatement if you ask me). Everybody in the entire school is aware of what went down a few weeks before the break when one of North Atlanta High's newest student; Xander Maxwell, had decided to put up a 'little' show for everyone at the basketball court right in the middle of an exam. To everyone's delight and forgive me for saying this (teaching staff) though

O U T O F B O U N D S ! Was the sign that had been erected in some areas of North Atlanta High just as Natasha and Cassie were passing through the entrance.“They’re everywhere!” exclaimed Marcus, who was coming in with Carmen.“It’s just the football field, the basketball court and the lounge,” Carmen corrected.“Like I was saying...everywhere!”“I guess your boyfriend managed to strike the principal's nerve,” Cassie muttered casually to Natasha.“What? What are you talking about?” Natasha gasped, trying to look all surprised.“We know you two have been together throughout the whole of Spring break, duh!” Carmen added, shaking her head.“So, where does Xander live? Does he have more motorcycles?” asked
T H E R E W E R E L O W rumbles of thunder in the mid-morning, with clouds slightly tinted grey blanketing the sky as Lucas stared at them through the window next to his desk just as Marcus nudged him.“My sister’s here,” he said to him and Lucas turned from the window to spot Carmen make her way through the door.Seated in the back was Scott, who was all but surprised to see her in there.Set at the end of the school classes block, the room housed nine people which added up to ten with the arrival of Carmen.It had torn and worn out books from the library, broken computers and lab equipment plus a teacher who was busy minding his own business on his phone, playing Candy Crush — the detention room.This explained why Scott was amazed to see Carmen join detention class. She never got detention plus this detention was

I know," Diana sighed, " and it's hard for me too but I just can't do this, not yet, not after all the things I've done to you and to this city."" I've seen you and Jenna, how you look at each other... "" I... " Nick didn't know what to say there." Hey, " Diana looked at him," it's okay.

"D A M N I T!" C U R S E D an infuriated Trevor Brandon who was seated in the cockpit of the small black aircraft next to the pilot.He had been airborne since the fight with the police captain at the industry when the skies had suddenly turned red."We can't leave sir, its too dangerous," the pilot had been saying, "the color from the clouds is shadowing our air route plus all air transport has been called off. We can't go anywhere."The fact that Kristina had betrayed him and that now he was stranded in the city where he was the most wanted man was not pleasing Trevor at all—not one bit.His devious plan had been executed perfectly well, beginning from the moment when he had secretly entered the city, completely undetected and had then abruptly gotten down to his primary objective—breaking Kristina out of prison. The woman she had closely worked f
