Chapter Two:A New Beginning
Alicia was walking to the park. The park always calmed her down. After an hour there, she decided to pick up Daisy from school to save her from the misery. She was wondering if Daisy was getting comforted from her friends, like she needed right now. The betrayal still hurt. She could feel tears trying to fall. She roughly wiped them away. 'They're not my friends. They never were. I shouldn't cry over them. It's like what my mom said about my dad. "No llores por el. El no merece un lagrima, ni una" I guess that in this case, it means that my fake friends don't derserve a tear. They don't even derseve to know how much pain they put me in. That's probably an accomplishment to them.'
She picked up her sister and was walking home with her when a van stopped by them. The door opened slowly. Alicia whispered one word that Daisy finally obeyed. "Run".
They started running down the abandoned street, but the guys ran faster. They caught up and dragged them to the van. They almost got them in until Josh comes and tries to free them. The guys kicked him off. Alicia looks out of the car window and yells, "Josh! JOSH! HELP ME!!!" while banging on the window. They take the sisters away from him, probably forever. Adriana and Joanna, Josh's sisters, help him up and they immediately go to Melissa house to tell them what happened.
When Josh arrived, he tried to tell them about what happened when the phone rings. Melissa went to check the caller ID and she saw "RODRIQUEZ, MARCOS" and realized that it was Alicia's phone number. She put it on speakerphone, thinking that it's her. "Hello, this is Alicia's aunt. Is Alicia and Daisy there?" Everyone had a confused look on their faces.
"No, we thought that they were at home, why?" asked Christina.
"Well, I'm afraid that they might do something crazy after the accident, especially Alicia, since she's suicidal. I guess you already know that since you guys are her best friends." That statement had everyone frozen to their spots. Alicia, suicidal? Was she talking about the same girl who was always smiling and laughing? That can't be. This is the girl that could make a depressed person laugh with joy. She could make a person with a heart full of hate want to be her best friend, and most people hated her for that. They all had to work for their social status, while Alicia had it come to her easy.
"What accident?" asked Josh. He wanted to know what was making his innocent angel think about suicide. It just wasn't like her to be like that.
"I can't believe that Alicia didn't tell you? I really though that she would tell you guys to get some comfort. She was really affected. Her wound was really fatal. I accually thought that I was going to lose her." Everyone started thinking.
"Where was the wound?" asked Patricia.
"She got the same wound as her mother. It was really close to her heart. Just a few more centimeters and she would have died instintly." Everyone gasped at that piece of information. They never thought that it was that serious.
"Did anyone die?" Asked Josh.
"Yes." Everyone was afraid to ask, but they had to know.
"Who?" asked Melissa.
"Her mom and sister, Jennifer. Her mom died of blood loss and Jennifer died from an athsma attack."
"Who killed them?" asked Josh.
"Her bastard of a father." That knocked the sense into everyone, especially Paula. They couldn't believe what they heard. Alicia was telling the truth the whole time. After some time, Josh remembered what he wanted to tell them.
"I saw her and Daisy. They were kidnapped and I tried to help them, but they beat me up." Everyone looked at him in shock and betrayal for not telling them before.
"Oh God, I'm going to call the police. If you hear something about her, call me and tell me." and afterwards, you could hear a tone. Patricia looked at Josh and said softly "Why didn't you tell us about this?"
"You didn't listen."
"How could you betray us, betray her like this?" asked Melissa.
"Betray her? At least I tried to help her. All you guys did was stand there as Patty chased her away!" Everyone, except Josh looked shamed. They prayed that Daisy and Alicia were safe, and that Alicia would forgive them.

When Alicia saw her sister unconsious, she immediately went over to check on her. After she was sure that she was alright, she hugged her sister tighter so no one would take Daisy away from her. She looked around. She saw a lot of boys, but a specific one caught her eye. He had brown hair with long bangs that covered one of his light eyes. He was tall and well-built. She thought that he was a God. He meet her stare and she looked down, blushing. He nodded to his friends and they walked over. She could see the others now.
One had messy chocolate brown hair and dark blue eyes. Another had black hair in a painful looking ponytail with black eyes. There was a cute blond who had blue eyes and one boy with his brown hair in a braid. He had playful purple eyes. "Hey babe! Allow me to introduce ourselves. This blond guy's name is Quatre, trigger happy boy's name is Heero, the guy with the painful ponytail is Wufei, but I call him Wu-man..."
"My name is not Wu-man! Injustice!" replied the one named Wufei. The braided boy ignored him and continued. "Anyway, the one with the bangs is called Trowa," 'Oh, so his name is Trowa. And it looks like he has green eyes. Oh, I love his eyes.' "And I'm Duo. I may run and hide, but I never tell a lie!" Alicia giggled at that.
"Hey, I'm Alicia and this is Daisy." Daisy woke up and said, "Sel? Where are we?"
"I was about to ask that."
"Where's Josh? I thought that he helped us?" Alicia's eyes sadden at the thought of him.
"He tried to. They hurt him. It's my fault he got hurt. It's my fault that we're here. It's my fualt that this happened to us. If only I could protect mom and Jenni. If only..." with all the overwelming feelings and the accident replaying in her mind she broke down and cried. She felt someone's arms around her and she looked up and saw Trowa offering comfort. The guys were amazed, but she didn't understand why.
"What happened that made such an innocent girl like you to be like this?" he asked.
"I don't want to say. The past is past and I want to leave it there." Wufei was about to say something when an old man walked in. He pointed at Alicia and said "Follow me." She looked at Trowa for approval. He nodded, so she followed him out of the room. Sometime later, you could hear screams of pain.
