~Ashlie's POV~

We all just heard his screams. We all heard his screams four days ago on Thursday. His poor, little screams. It's Saturday now and he's still not back on the bottom of my bunk. "WHAT DID THAT FUCKER DO TO HIM?!" I screamed, finally letting the rage take over. The boys jumped as I had not said anything since those screams the other day.

"Ashlie, calm down. Nick's still alive. I know he is! I just kn-"

"BUT YOU DON'T KNOW HE IS UNI! NONE OF US DO SO STOP YOUR FUCKING LIE RIGHT THERE!"

"Ashlie! Calm down!" Cory semi-shouted, yet still sounding calm.

"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" I was truly not myself anymore. I was acting as if I had lost my own brother.

"Ashlie, stop. Calm down. Think about how Uni feels. Nick is his brother after all."

"I SAID SHU-" I stopped and thought about it for a second. I then looked over at Uni and saw that he was crying. "Uni... I'm so sorry."

"W-what for? You're r-right. I was lying. Nick's dead and it's all my fault."

"Uni... That's not what I meant! I..." I stopped, realising how bad I had made things become. We all sat in silence for another eternity, the only noise being heard were Uni's quite sobs from the corner of the room. We were apparently there until the evening, as the door opened to Ross holding more food for us. But, tonight was different from the other's. He spoke to us.

"Not feeling as chatty as usual, are we?" He quietly giggled manically under his breath, loud enough for us to hear it though. No one answered him and I turned to face the corner away from him, so now all I could do was hear him. "Giving me the silent treatment are you all? I mean, I expect it from A.AL and the other one, but not from you Cory. You're usually always there some witty remark or another." Cory said nothing for a while, but then,

"Will you just go away? Until you let Nick back in we're not gonna do anything but just sit here in silence. If you want your 'entertainment' listening in on our conversations, I recommend bringing Nick back. Otherwise, beat it."

"Well thought out. Very well then. But don't come complaining to me if there are some loose wires~" He shut the door. As soon as he did I turned around and said,

"I don't like the way he said loose wires..." As soon I said that the door opened and Nick was pushed in. I heard the door slam again so I turned around and practically jumped off the top bunk to hug Nick, but then I stopped and took a look at him. He had a metal left cheek, and his lower stomach was replaced with a metal plate, and when he walked, you could hear a clang from his right leg. "Nick?"
