Serena

"SERENA HURRY PLEASE!!!" Kylie was screaming at the top of her lungs. I jolt awake and run out of the tent. Kylie sits in the sand sobbing and clutching a piece of paper in her hands. The others stand back (I could tell she pushed them away). Before I make it to her, one thought clicks in my head. Where's Trenton when Kylie is screaming? My question is soon answered. She shoves the paper in my hand and cries at my feet. I scan the note then throw it to the ground.

"IDIOT!" I yell in frustration. He had to go off into the world by himself again. He must feel this need to show off or something. When we find him, if he's not dead already, I'm going to kill him.

"Where do you think he went?" Kathryn asks carefully.

"Lets wait for this boat he sent and see where it takes us. Miami can't be that far if the idiot swam there," I reply through clenched teeth. Nothing has gone right these past couple days and I am furious. What's with the 'don't come looking for me" stuff? He has officially gone insane.

“Do you think he'll be alright?" Kylie sniffles. I open my mouth to speak, but I choose not to instead. I think anything I say right now would either be an insult or curse so I close my mouth and walk away.

"He will be fine!" Kathryn reassures her, but I hear the pain in her voice. I have no clue what I'm going to do. I stand away from the others and hold back tears. How could he leave without saying goodbye? Something's going on with Trenton and I need to find out the real reason he left. Eric's arms wrap around me, but I swat him away.

"Why are you mad at me? I defended you!" he protests.

"You could've been the better person and just let her rant. Kylie is having a really hard time here," I reply slowly.

"We all are! Do you think it's easy being with a girl who's friends all die because an insane faceless man bent on killing them?!" He yells and I lose it.

"Well I'm sorry for not being a trophy girlfriend! I'm sorry that you were sucked into this! This isn't how I planned my life to be! I didn't ask for this!!" I yell back and I put my face in my hands. Tears are flowing before I know it and my body wracks with sobs. I try to pull myself together, but I can't. Why am I crying so much?! Eric pulls me to him and I sob into his chest.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you. This isn't your fault." He whispers in my ear. I break away and sit on the sand. He sits next to me while I wipe my tears away.

"How could he leave us like this? I hate him," I mutter.

"No you don't. You're disappointed with him," he comforts me.

"I wish he wasn't so stubborn and would just tell me. I feel invisible."

"Can you set up a mind connection to talk to him?"

"I don't want to. I have nothing to say to him."

"Serena-"

"No!"

"Fine." Eric walks away. I hear Kylie wailing, but I don't want to talk to anyone. The whole world is frustrating. I hear a motor in the distance and I sigh. Once I find Trenton, I'm gonna have words.
