"I ... I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you." Tamie said. "I ... um ... just wanted to say good morning." She said trying to hide the twinge of fear in her voice. "I'll let you go back to sleep now."

Sylan showered quickly and was downstairs in a record 10 minutes. "Ok ... we better get if you don't want to be late." He said as he took his keys from the hook beside the door.

Tamie leaned against the wall out of sight of the man. "I think I'm being followed..." She said softly.

Sylan climbed into the car and started it. "Hey... you alright?" He asked looking over at Lanie.

Lanie nodded her head and looked out twards the window not showing Sylan the tears in her eyes. she was tarrifyed.

David jumped out of bed. " where are you? i'm coming to get you, no arguments." he said going to his closet to get some clothes.

"I'm at the studio ... I come here before school starts for a quick practice." She explained. The door opened and Tamie took a quick peek around the corner. The man had come into the building.
Tamie ducked into the shadows. "David ... please hurry." She was terrified now.

Sylan didn't like the way lanie was acting and decided he wasn't going to take her to the school. He drove right past the school entrance and out toward an old park where he used to take Corison and Lanie before the fire.

David ran down the stair nearly tripping and falling. he grabbed his keys and got into his car and drove as fast as he could twards the studio.
he put the phone on speaker and told her not to hang up. " i want you to go find a fire alarm and pull it. NOW. " he said running through a red light.


Lanie sighed as she realized where they were going.
" Sylan i have a test." she protested.

"There arn't any ... this is the older part of the building. They didn't remoddle this part of the building when they built the new wing. They gave me a key so I could practice in the morning."

The man heard her lowered voice and started walking toward her. He rounded the corner to her hidding place. "Hi there." He said with the same raspy voice fromt he night before. He reached for her.

Tamie dropped the phone and screamed...

The man grinned devilishly and slammed his elbow into David's ribbs making him loosen his grip just enough. He grabbed the hand David was holding the knife with and slammed it aginst Tamie's shoulder.

Tamie gasped and cried out as the blade bit into her shoulder. The man quickly ducked Under Daivd's arm and disapeared out the door. Tamie slid to the floor in shock.

David's eyes went wide he couldnt believe what had just happend. " Tamie." he ran over to her. her sholder was bleeding pretty badly. " i'm so sorry." he picked her up and carried her out to his car and drove her back to his house.

"I'll talk to your teachers if I have to ... you need some time away. You havn't been yourself since Corison died ... and I know I haven't been much help." Sylan said turning into a parking place at the park.

Tamie stared blankly still in shock as David carried her out to the car. She began to shiver as if she were cold.

Lanie opened the door of the car and bolted out.
she headed twards the road. she was going to walk back to school. she didnt want to be afriad the rest of her life.
she didnt want to be sad the rest of her life. she was sick of running away every single time something happend she had to face her life or it would never get better.


David and Tamie got to his house and he carried her inside and set her in a chair. " are you alright?" she hadnt talked the whole way there.

Tamie seemed to come back to reality when David asked if she was ok. She turned to look up at him, but stopped as her shoulder protested. "My shoulder hurts."

David nodded. " alright, hold on a moment." David walked up stairs, he got his mom's bathrobe then headed back downstairs. " put this on. i'm gonna have to take a look at your sholder." he said leading her to the bathroom so she could put it on.
he went to the kitchen to get to first aid kit.

Tamie closed the door and carefully did as he asked. once she was securely wrapped in the robe she opened the door and stepped out into the hall. The world started to spin and she readed out to steady herself. A strong arm circled round her waist keeping her from falling.
