Courtney smirked, she had been tailing the two, though not really listening to them untill now. "Ha! I can't believe I used to believe them. My mom said that there were spiders bigger than the car, skinless monsters, and sharks the size of submarines." she said with a chuckle. "But, the zombies were what I found unbelieveable." She scratched the back of her head. "So, what's this I hear about a lumbermill? You guys need sawdust or something? In anycase, can I tag along too? I've got nothing to do, and my mom probably fell back asleep."

"Hey Leo." Matt didn't know why, but he always prefered to call Lee Leo. Meryl quickly licked the cookie and held it close to her. "Mine!" She yelled, protecting it as if it meant her life was at stake. "Well seems privacy's out of the question. I guess you can come along, unless you're afraid to commit a crime." He said, forgetting Lee was right by them. "Aha! Chief reporter, Elizabeth Ashcroft has done it again!" The woman fumbled out of the bushes and fell to the ground, camera in hand. As she got up she smirked at them. "Ya know.. This would make an excellent story in the school's paper." She said then put her hands up like a bullitin board. "Teenagers gets ass chewed off by zombies!" Matt sighed and spoke up. "Actually Liz, we were going to ask you to tag along, you'd get a cut in the pay.." Matt persuaded, hoping this wouldn't be the school headline. "That's what I thought. You need someone who can get you in." She said and winked at Matt. Elizabeth was Matt's recent x-girlfriend. She was quite pretty but extremely annoying and self-centered like her mom. Her mother was the person who destroyed Umbrella with pictures and lead an excellent debate.

"Of course I don't mind committing a crime. My dad could care less, and my mom...well, she did say she used to work with your dad at a police station. Well, I guess we'll try not to get caught." her then shifted attention to Elizabeth. "Well, if it isn't her highness from the newspaper class now. Say, you get anything on that 'Locker Ghost' you were trying to find a while ago?" She chuckled. "Well, Mattie. I hope you know what you're doing...and I hope she can quiet down. It won't be a sneak-in if she came along."

"I was bored and I had nothing to write about!" Elizabeth snapped. She was both feminin and tomboyish at times, she can really pack a punch. "I'm not loud! So shut the hell up!" Elizabeth snapped again. Matt sighed once again. "Shut up both of you!" He said then laughed a little. "Liz, no cameras, no tape recorders. If the guards or cops see that it's on the school's paper then they would know we were tresspassing." Matt said as Elizabeth nodded. "Fine, I know how to to infiltrate places, my mom knows more than you can ever imagine." She said then smirked.

"I can't go. My mom works with the cops and my dad is a cop. If I go and if my mom finds out, she will beat the..." He stopped himself from cursing in front of the girl and continued. "...out of me..." He said looking at Matt. Jake thought about the stories. He beleived some of it, but the other things he didn't. Jake's phone started to ring again and this time he walked away from the group.
"Jake, I need you to come home fast...Right...NOW!" His mother shouted in the phone in an angry tone. "Why? What did I do this time?!" Jake shouted. "Come home! Don't give me any shit either. Your father and I have to speak to you." She said and then his mother hung up. Jake moaned. "Hey, I got to go. My mom wants me to come home..." He said walking past the group.

"Alright man.. I'll still share the money with you." Matt said, waving. "Bye Jake!" Meryl yelled, also waving. 'Damn.. One less victim for my report.' Elizabeth thought then looked up at the clouds. "Are you sure you want to go tonight? There's a storm brewin.." She said thinking of all the rain and wetness, she flinched. "There's supposed to be an electrical storm to take out all power, we'll be able to get in easier." Matt explained and sighed at the thought of not being able to go on a real adventure with Jake.

When Jake got home it was all dark. Jake just dropped his backpack onto the ground and he started to head to the kitchen. When he got into the kitchen the lights went on and his whole family was there. "Suprise! Happy Birthday!" They all shouted and he just smiled. Jay went over to Jake and gave him a tight hug and his daughter did too. Jillian walked over and smiled.
"It was supposed to be at your uncles house...but you told him, 'Damn it! I'm too busy!' " Jillian said making fun of her son. "Kuya? How old are you?" Amanda, Jay's daughter and his nine year old cousin, asked. "Um...Did you count the candles?" Jake asked. "Oh..." She said rushing over to the cake. Steven took Jake into the garage. "You know how you said you wanted your mom's car?" He asked and he nodded. "Well Your mother pulled a few strings with some friends and..." He turned on the lights to the garage.
"What?!" He shouted. "Is this the same one mom drove before she crashed it?" Steven nodded and Jake ran back inside. Jillian looked at her son. All grown up. A tear fell down her cheek. It seemed like yesterday when she would used to tell him stories about Raccoon and the adventures she had while racing. She smiled and went into her room. "Mom? Mom?" Jake called. He wanted to thank her but she was no where in sight. He sighed and moved out of the house.
He got out and took out his cellphone and called Matt. "Hey Matt. They held a surprise party for me...They even got me a car. A lamborghini. I might be able to drop by...That is...if my parents are busy witht he party." He said slowly moving away from his home.

The moment Jake left, Courtney's cell phone started to ring as well. "The chain reaction starts..." She moaned. "yeah?"
The older Korean spoke to her. "Hey there baby." She started, and the younger one's face flushed red. "Listen, I was listening to the radio, apparently there is going to be a thunderstorm. Do you want me to pick you up soon?"
"No, mom, I'll be fine."
"Alright, Court. Call me when you do." Ayami hung up on the other line.
Courtney turned around, to face her friends once more. "So, you're really going to do this?"

"Oh Shit!" Matt yelled through the phone and Meryl could be heard. "Ooooh! You said a bad wooooord!" Matt shook his head. "Shut up.." He had forgotten about Jake's birthday. "I umm.. Got somethin for ya.. Just wait till tonight so I can get it.." He said, trying to make it seem he remembered. Elizabeth grabbed the phone and spoke up. "Hey Jake, I remembered your birthday unlike that useless moron. My present to you is.." Then she went silent as she pulled out a peice of paper. "You think I'm gonna give it without letting you work? Anyways get a peice of paper, I hid the present in your house." She said and laughed. Like her mother, Elizabeth could pick many locks, one being houses. Liz stood there waiting for the conformation of the peice of paper. "Yeah." Matt smiled at Courtney, more of a stupid grin such as his father's.
A shotgun hit the ground as another perp fell after. Two dead bodies, one guy standing with a shotgun pointed at another who had a wounded leg. His sheriff's badge shining brightly, Jack Anderson walked over to the wounded drug dealer and put the barrel of the shotgun in his face. "Now I'm not going to tell you again, who is supplying these drugs!?" He yelled as the man trembled in fear. "There's... A a lab over inside the old lumber mill." Jack smirked and decided to get more out of him. "What do they do there?" The man's breathing grew louder as his heart raced faster than a car. "They make chemicals.. Please dont let them kill me." Jack smirked and looked to his right and left. "Trust me, they aint gettin passed me. Now why are they selling?" Jack continued as the man grew more calm. "For their expiraments, please, if I say more they will kill me!" The man pleaded as Jack nodded and with a blow from the shotgun butt the man fell unconcious. Jack then placed the handcuffs on his hands and drove down to the police station. Crime wasn't large in this town, at least not until the lumber mill closed. Taking out his cell Jack dialed Steve's number and waited patiently for him to answer.

"What the hell?! You broke into my house? Whatever." He went back inside and he got a paper and a pen. "Yeah?" He asked sitting on the steps of the porch. "I got a pen and a peice of paper. So now what?" He asked taking the cap off of his pen. Jake yawned and waited for an answer.
Steve picked up his phone. "Hello this is Steven Kings. How may I help you?" He asked into the phone looking at all the party guest. He knew that it was Jack. "Hey. What's happening? If it's the kind of crime that needs to be investigated or looked into more...you should have called Jillian." He said waiting for a reply.
Jillian laid in her bed closing her eyes. She was crying. She just did and she didn't know why. She just sat there quietly crying. She opened her eyes and wiped her tears. She went over to a table and she picked up her glasses. "I'm such a crybaby." She said.

"Ok... Think.. The lid on the box, with the most air in it. Think Jake, where does your mom keep all her boxes?" Liz said and smirked. In one of the open boxes, there's a cut in the lid, placed inside is a napkin, in it is twenty dollars. Liz waited patiently for him to find it so she can secure her thank you. Matt rolled his eyes and looked at his watch. "Could ya hurry up, I need to get Meryl home." Matt said and Liz nodded. Meryl opened her cookie and munched happily.
"Sorry Steven, you know you caught more of those drug dealers than your wife did. Anyways, if you're not interested then you can ask her to do the job." Jack said then threw the cowardly drug dealer in a cell and locked it. There were many other criminals in the cells, all of who, knows each other. "I got a lead. Appearantly there's a hidden lab in the old lumber mill. If you think of it, crime levels increased when Osma corp shut it down." Jack explained then waited for an answer.

"I'm the one who jailed him...She was the one who found the evidence to them." Steven said. "I'll go and check it out. Are you going too?" Steven asked and then he looked around and went into the room. He asw Jillian and napkins beside the bed. She smiled and hugged him and she walked out. "If you are? Where are we going to meet?" He asked looking for his gun.
"My mom keeps them... in the garage..." He said rushing back into the garage and he looked for the box with the most air in it. After a few minutes of looking he finally found it. "Aright. Got it...Hey Thanks. Now...I'm going to save it. Aright, I need to speak to Matt now. I need to ask him something."

"No problem, here he is." She said and tossed the phone. Matt quickly caught it and looked at Liz. "Watch it! You could've broken my phone!" He yelled and she laughed. "That's why you need to learn how to catch." She said and walked off. "Meet you at the mill tonight." She called over and Matt turned to the phone. "Sorry bout that, you know Lizzy. Hey, happy birthday!" He yelled as Meryl could be heard copying him.
"Yeah, I'll be there. Meet at the police station for supplies. Obviously we wont be able to bust them all so we'll need information for an assault." Jack said as he loaded his shotgun then turned the gun to safety. Jack was such a bad cop that he was a good one. He was never polite to the criminals, unless they were women.

"Hey...I'll meet you at the mill. See ya." He said hanging up and then he walked up to his room. "Steve. Where are you going?" His mother said. "I'm going to the old lumber mill...Jack says there's some criminal activities happening there but first I'm going to the police station." His dad replied as he pressed the end call button. "Your not going alone...I'm coming too. I need to drop off some evidence I found earlier..." He heard her say and Jake rushed into his room and called Matt again.

Courtney had forgotten Jake's birth aswell, so she didn't have something for him either. When she heard that he recieved a car, and not just any car, an Italian exocitc, she felt a bit nervous. "He has one of those? Doesn't that require a Class A license? I didn't even know he was old enough for the permit. I think I'll avoid him for a while...until he crashes atleast." She scratched her head, the entire group had departed, except for herself, Matt and his sister. "I'll just follow you, I guess."
