Jay-

I slammed the ball against my tourney stick, missing the goal. Once again. "I knew I would find you here" said Ben as he walked towards me, dressed as if he was gonna practice with me.

"Just trying to take my mind off things.." I mumbled as I picked up another ball with my stick. "Can I stay? School starts in a week and with Silena being missing i feel like im kind of rusty at the sport" Ben said chuckling softly. I gave him a half grin before hitting the goal. "Sorry but I'd rather be alone." I muttered wiping sweat off my forehead.

Ben frowned, "Jay you've been alone for two days, I think some company wouldn't hurt you know-" "I'd rather be alone" I snapped, as i gripped my tourney stick. Ben looked taken back from my outburst but nodded, "I'll uh call you if we get any information from Ryder or about Silena" he said as he began to walk off the field.

I groaned as soon as Ben left and kicked the goal with my foot. I breath heavily as I looked around to see I was alone. Truth is I didn't want to be alone, but I knew if i was by anyone my anger would get to me and I could potentially hurt them.

"Everybody's always talking at me" I sang as I looked at my tourney stick.
"Everybody's trying to get in my head
I wanna listen to my own heart talking
I need to count on myself instead" I slammed my tourney against the ball in anger.

"Did you ever Lose yourself to get what you want?" I sang as I hit a ball, missing the goal.
"Did you ever Get on a ride, then wanna get off?" I squeezed my eyes shut.

"Did you ever push away the ones
You should've held close?" I sang, an image of Silena ran through my head making me grip the tourney stick.
" Did you ever let go? Did you ever not know?"

"I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am
I'll give it all I got, that is my plan" I dropped my tourney stick and glared towards the castle. ''Will I find what I lost? You know you can Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it!" I sang as I kicked the tourney ball.

"I wanna make it right, that is the way
To turn my life around, today is the day Am I the type of guy who means what I say? Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it"

'How will I know if there's a path worth taking? Should I question every move I make?" I shook my head as I ran my hands through my hair." With all Ive lost, my heart is breaking I don't wanna make the same mistake." I sang, squeezing my eyes shut.

"Did you ever Doubt your dream will ever come true? Did you ever
Blame the world and never blame you?" I opened my eyes and imagined Silena, smiling and waving at me from the stands.

"I will never Try to live a lie again
I don't wanna win this game If I can't play it my way!" I sang as I threw a tourney ball at the image making it diseapper.

"Hold, hold up, give me room to think
Bring it on down" I sang as I grabbed my tourney stick, looking at it up and down. "Gotta work on my swing
Gotta do my own thing, hold, hold up" I threw a ball up and swung my tourney stick, hitting it and making a perfect shot.

"It's no good at all to see yourself
And not recognize your face" I sang turning to see the same image of Silena again, making my own heartache. "Out on my own, it's such a scary place." The image waved at me, making my knees feel weak. " The answers are all inside of me All I gotta do is believe" i sang softly as the image wavered away. I turned and looked towards the castle.

"I'm not gonna stop" I sang grabbing my tourney stick and my practice bag
" Not gonna stop 'til I get my shot
That's who I am, that is my plan
Will I end up on top?"  I sang as I began to run towards the castle.
