Recap:
I left the keys in the adimtion in case we needed a quick escape, but little did I know what a huge mistake that was....

Now:
        As we snuck inside the house, a door chime made noise. When we heard footsteps running towards us, we frantically looked for places to hide. By the time they reached the entrance, we all were hiding, and I managed to slip into the room they ran out of just in time. Suddenly, their was a spine-chilling scream of terror coming from the entrance. Then, a gunshot fired. As I worked my way towards Zack, the strangers that held Zack captive lunged at me. I reached Zack just in time, pulling out a knife, and freeing Zack. "You came for me." Zack gasped, looking up. "Of corse. Now, come on, we've gotta go!" I commanded. "ELEANOR, WATCH OUT!" someone yelled, as another one of Zack's captors lunged at me with a knife. Quickly, Zack knocked me aside, and took the knife to the leg. "ZACK!" I shouted, running to Zack, falling to my knees, and sliding along the floor. As Justin and Andrea dealt with the captors, Caleb and I tried to stop the wound from bleeding. As the final captors fell to the floor, tired out, we slipped out, to find Amelia on the floor. Justin and Andrea ran to pick her up, as we left the house, with Zack leaning against me for support, and Caleb on the other side of Zack. "Where's the bus?!" Andrea freaked out, causing us to look up. "Jack. He must've stolen it while we where in the house!" Caleb growled angrily. "We need to get to the hospital, and fast. Amelia is loosing a lot of blood." Justin stated. "Yeah, so is Zack." Caleb nodded. "No, I'm fine guys..." Zack disagreed. "Call a uber." I said into my phone, as Siri popped up. "Uber 10 minutes away." Siri responded.

At the hospital:
2 hours later:
        "How is she doc?" Andrea asked, once the Amelia's doctor came out into the waiting room. "Look, this is difficult news to deliver, but I'm so sorry. We were too late. We tried to get bullet out in time, but we couldn't save her in time. She died on the table. I'm so sorry for your loss." Dr. Barron apologized. "What about Zack?" I asked, tearing up, and hoping for good news. "Zack just has to get stitches. He should be up and walking in a few weeks." Dr. Barron answered. As we cried for Amelia, Dr. Barron left us in our sorrows. "Hey guys..." Zack greeted, being pushed out into the waiting room by a nurse. "Any news on Amelia?" Zack asked. "Sh-she's gone." Andrea cried. "This wasn't supposed to happen! Why her? Why Amelia? Why not me! Why God, why?!" I sobbed.

            "Look guys, it'll be ok. We still have each other. I know what you're thinking, 'but we won't be the same'. I'm not going to disagree with that, but we can try to make it. Amelia's in a safer place now, where there are no rival gangs trying to kill us or kidnap us." Justin sighed, breaking the few moments of silence. "Why am I sad?" Andrea cried. "It's called emotion, dumbass." Caleb sniffed. "I know, but I didn't actually like her that much..." Andrea responded. "G-guys, I hate to say this, but we might have to move. If Jack took Eleanor's bus, that means that he might be working for one of our rival gang's." Zack said, letting tears slip down his cheeks. "Th-then, we need to avenge the gang that kidnapped you, for Amelia." I sighed. "We'll worry about that later. For now, we need to focus on the fact that one of the other gangs could know our secret hideout, and grab all our weapons when we aren't home." Justin told us. "Justin's right. We start searching for a new house tomorrow. Tonight, we mourn Amelia and then rest." Zack agreed, ordering us.
