Thy Will Be Done

Spencer was in her bedroom rushing around to finish packing her suitcase.  As she finished and zipped the, now full, suitcase, she sat on her bed lost in her thoughts.  Other than visiting her parents, for a couple days here and there, she had not really been in LA for the past ten years and now she would be there for an entire week to attend King High reunion festivities and in another month she would be living there again.  She didn’t know what memories would resurface and wasn’t sure she was ready for this. 

Of course the memories were always there no matter where she resided, but now everything would be right there staring her in the face everyday and as she got closer to living in LA again she was becoming overwhelmed.  Spencer was now twirling her shoulder-length blonde hair around her index finger, as her sky blue eyes stared off into space thinking about her past in LA.

Ashley, Kyla, Aiden, and Chelsea had all gone to the Carlin residence to meet up with Spencer, Glen, and Clay and head to the prom.  As Spencer left the house with the others, heading for her Junior Prom, she had no way of knowing that by the end of the night her life would end up in a tailspin, that she still hasn’t completely recovered from.  She was having such a great time dancing and laughing with Ashley throughout the night, until it was time for the last dance.  She saw Ashley and Aiden dancing and was walking over to interrupt and share the last dance with her girlfriend.  However when she made her way there Ashley and Aiden were now holding hands and in a deep discussion.  Aiden had professed his love for Ashley and after a confrontation amongst the three of them, Spencer yelled at Ashley to choose between them.  Ashley just stood there, not saying anything and then the bullets began flying.  Students were running and screaming all around.  The last thing Spencer heard, before she blacked out, was Ashley yelling Aiden’s name.  What did that mean, had she chosen him, was she more concerned about Aiden’s safety than hers? 

Unfortunately, Spencer would probably never know.  When she woke up in the hospital she found out that Ashley, Aiden, and Kyla had all just vanished.  Her mom, who wasn’t on duty at the time, had asked around the hospital and found out that Ashley and Kyla had been brought in, but Ashley’s mom came in soon after and had them taken elsewhere.  No one knew where they were taken or what either girl’s condition was and none of them ever showed up any time during their senior year either.
