After Ariah was free, she and grace met up with Cassidy and Gracy. Cassidy was an old friend, but still awesome! "So sis," Grace said. "What do you want for our birthday?" "Ummm..." Gracy thought and thought, but she didn't know. "I can't think like this.." She ran away to the girls' bathroom. Grace was worried and ran after her. "What's wrong?" Said grace, finding Gracy in the corner.
WARNING, This part has some sad, shocking news, so BE PREPARED!
"Ever since dad died, I've been skipping class.." Said Gracy. It was true, Grace and Gracy's dad had died in a sad fire. "Oh no..." Grace said. "You know how mom is! You can't skip class! Ever since dad died, she's been strict. She'll NEVER accept you skipping class!"
Gracy sighed. She was right.
How their dad died: He accepted a job as a firefighter, knowing the risks. But he knew that the fire department needed more fighters. He accepted the job for an old woman's house on Broad Str. As they carefully went in, they smelled smoke. The other fighters left to spray other parts of the house. The dad saw the woman on the ground, and he knew he couldn't get her, she was too close to the fire. But he picked her up anyways. As he was running towards the door, he slipped on a pot that was on the floor. The door was open, so the old lady flew through it, but the father slipped and fell into some flames. They tried to rush him to the ER, but he didn't make it.
Back to the present, the girls calmed down, and they went to class. On their way, they were stopped by MARICELA.
Part 2 is done :D
