I run off into the woods and sit down on a log by myself. If this was Taylor's idea of "prank", that's horrible. This is unbelievable. What did I do to him?

I look up from my lap and realize how beautiful the outdoors are. Wow, glad I left my phone in the hotel room. I stand up and feel a sharp pain in my lower abdomen. I try to walk but it hurts. I sit back down on the log and take a break. I start sweating.

After several hours I try standing up again and I can walk. I walk slowly toward the end of the forrest. Finally there's a beak in the trees and I see the training center and empty field ahead. I barely make it inside the building doors before I collapse from exhaustion.

5 hours later I wake up in my hotel room in my bed, in my pajamas, showered, and under my blankets. Who did all this? that could be very weird. I glance over and see a note on the table.

So after you ran into the woods Taylor went back to the hotel room and hoped you would come back. After you didn't he called up Sky Dive Central and you hadn't made it back yet, so Taylor went looking for you. His phone is dead and he hasn't come back yet. Me, and the others, except one, have gone out looking for you guys. If you back and we aren't by 10pm, call the police. Tell them to make sure everyone gets a refund for tomorrow's event but don't tell them were missing. Then make sure you stay safe, like Taylor would've wanted you too. Tell the others and make sure they know the whole story.

We love you.

-Matthew

I glance at the clock. 12 am. Wait. I quickly reread that last part.

Me, and the others, except one, have gone out looking for you guys.

Who's the 'except one'?

I run next door to there rooms and bang on the door. Jack Gilinsky opens it. "Have they come back yet?"

"No. But I called them into the police. They haven't found them, or any traces."

"I'm an idiot! Why would I run off into the woods. I should've known he would come after me."

"Hey don't blame yourself." He says wrapping me in a hug. "They'll turn up. In sure. Taylor wouldn't leave you, and they wouldn't leave their fans. If I know Taylor, he's out there fighting as hard as he can to get back to you."

I nod my head and swallow hard. I start walking back to my room. "When did you see them last?"

He sighs. "3:30"

I sigh and realize the cold-hard truth, there're probably not coming back.
