~~~    Jackson's Point of View    ~~~ That night while we were trying to stop the blood from Alice's hand, we heard another shot. "Is that Cyrus?!" Sally asked petrified, "I will go check," I said running downstairs hoping it wasn't Cyrus that was shot, "CYRUS, WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?!" I yelled when I noticed the dead body lying on the floor, "He was going to escape and-and I swear I-I didn't mean to, oh my god," he was shaking as he stuttered the words out, "What are we going to do?" he asked panicking, "Okay help me before they see it," I said trying to get a hold of the feet, "We're not going to hide the body, that's a crime," he said stupidly, 

                                     ~~~    Jackson's Point of View    ~~~"So you're telling us it wasn't him? What if he's doing some kind of trick on us? What if he's trying-" Alice cut me off before I could finish my thoughts,"He is not Jack. Just let this go," she said.Once we were alone, we talked about her uncle and she told us how he never had the intention of killing his own family. I don't know. There's something shady about this man, but if Alice wants me to drop it then I won't mention it to her. I will just talk to Cyrus about it. About Cyrus..."Why is Cyrus not here yet?" I asked directing it at Sally,"I don't know, should we check on him?" she asked as I stood up and walked out of the room without waiting for her. I walked down the hallway to where his mother is and there I found his dad sitting on a chair crying?

   I woke up the next morning from the uncomfortable pain in my back. I realized I was still in the hospital sleeping on a chair in an uncomfortable way that made my back ache. I noticed Mr. Issac and Cyrus were still sleeping so I got up to check on Sally and Alice.      I walked to the cafeteria first to get a coffee before making my way to Alice's room. When I got there, I noticed Sally was awake but not Alice. I walked in slowly and carefully and motioned Sally to get out in the hall. She did and as we took a walk I asked, "Did you wake up early?" "I couldn't sleep. I slept for like 2 hours but I spent the rest of the time on my phone," she said,"Oh, I couldn't sleep either. Maybe we should go home and get some rest," I suggested. I was exhausted and the only thing I wanted to do was to just go home and lay on my bed even if I didn't fall asleep, which I highly doubt. "Maybe you're right. I can't stay here, I hav

                                            ~~~    Cyrus's Point of View    ~~~        I am sleeping peacefully when the jerk barges in my room. "Cyrus, are you awake?" he asks turning the lights on,"I am now," I say scowling,"Alright, you're getting out today. As I told you, you won't be fully free. Sure you can go to school and stuff, but you will still be working for us," he says it like it was no big deal,"There's no way I am working with the Silent Man," I reply,"Oh, you're not working with us. That's a big step. You are working for us," he says grinning,"Why would I work for a crime lord?" it's clear I would never do that,"Because you love your family and friends," he continues, "Now, this will be the phone you use with us. We will tell you where to meet us, the

                       ~~~    Cyrus's Point of View    ~~~(Quick recap)         We get to another door after a while of walking. A more complicated door than the first one. He types a different code for this one as he gives me his phone and tells me to put both of them in the box. It is some kind of machine where you have to tap the screen for it to open. I drop the phone before he opens the door again.He opens it wider than the first one and- HOLY SHIT! When the door opens, it reveals about a hundred people sitting. Do all these people work for him?"Come on," Nathaniel motions for me to follow him, which I did."WHAT. THE...!" I yell attracting all attention to my side. Frankly, that's the least of my worries when I am sitting right behind dead people?"Weren't they-? How the hell-?" I could form a proper sentenc
