Where'd they go - Danielle Calamanco (reading comprehension books .TXT) 📗

to all this was a note from Jessie saying: Hey Sara, I see out of the shower now and noticed the bedroom. Well I did it for you. Put on this dress and these shoes and gussy up. We’re going to have a night you’ll never forget. Love, Jessie.
Sara grabbed the dress and hurriedly put it on. The dress fit her perfect and it didn’t make her chest too small or too big. It also shaped her curves just perfect enough to show them off. She put her hair up into a Chinese bun leaving her bangs swooped to the side covering a little bit of her eye. She put on a silver necklace that her mom had made for her when she was young. Her mother said she could only wear it for a special occasion. And Sara saw this as a special occasion. She put on some hoop earrings also. She strapped on the shoes and headed out onto the beach. The sun was just setting, and Sara thought what a beautiful view.
Just then Jessie walks out in a white button up shirt and dark pair of pants with fancy shoes on and says “I think so too.”
“Jessie, this is just beautiful. But why are we doing this? What do you have planned?”
“That my dear is a surprise,” Jessie says with a little laugh to go with it.
Sara’s heart leaps for a second. She can’t stand not to think what he was doing.
Jessie took her hand and led her to a table. It was set for two. The table cloth was white just like the bed sheets. And in the middle as a decoration was a red rose.
Jessie pulled out a seat and waited till Sara sat down. When she sat down he pushed her in. Then he sat down himself.
“Wow, Jessie this is, just beautiful,” Sara whispers.
“Anything for the most beautiful thing in the world,” Jessie says gazing into her eyes.
They stared at each other for awhile letting the water be the only sound between them.
After awhile Sara says “So what’s for dinner?”
“Oh, I almost forgot,” he says he pulls out a sandwich for both of them.
“A sandwich,” Sara says as she laughs.
“Hey, it is hard to find steak and stuff like that out here in the middle of nowhere.”
They both laugh at how they had only sandwiches for their romantic dinner.
They both picked up their sandwiches and started eating. Sara put her sandwich down and picked up her cup. “What is this?”
“It’s Grape wine. There are a lot of grapes on this island.”
Sara took a sip and she could feel it go down her throat. She closed her eyes letting the tingle of the alcoholism flowed through her blood. She set down her cup and opened her eyes. When she looked at Jessie his sandwich was gone and his wine only had a drop left in the cup.
Jessie took Sara’s hand and squeezed it tight.”You know I don’t try to purposely hurt you during training,” He says while looking at her bruise on her arm.
“No, I know. I bet what you’re doing to me is nothing compared to what Gorlick will do if I don’t train.”
“Exactly, thanks for seeing my point of view.”
“No problem,”
As they both stared into each other’s eyes a dark shadow hovers of the sunset’s only light. They both looked up to see what was in the way. It was a human form but with wings.
She had beautiful blond hair that went far down her back and beautiful blue eyes. She had a beautiful body with beautiful curves.
“What are you doing here Selena?” barks Jessie.
Sara looks at Jessie with shock. He knows this girl?
“How-how do you know her?” says Sara with shock in her voice.
“Oh shut up you little wimp,”
At that instant Sara’s mouth was magically shut she could not open it no matter what she did. She could still breath but it’s like her mouth was open but it wasn’t.
“Good girl, now just sit there like the puny human you are.” Selena says as she magically ties Sara’s hand behind her back and magically pushes her chair close to the water.
Selena kicks the table out of the way and stands in front of Jessie.
“Why are you helping her? You know her path already.”
“Why do you care Selena? What do you miss me?”
“Oh you know it. Jessie don’t you remember all the good times we had?”
“What good times? Oh you mean when we used to kill people for Gorlick? Yeah, those weren’t fun that was torture.”
“Well depends on if we saved earth or not,” Selena says in a snotty voice.
“Whatever,” Jessie says he walks over to Sara who is still shocked about what had happened to her and everything that was going on. “Now let her g..”
Suddenly Sara was hanging off a cliff still tied her seat and mouth covered. “Tsk,tsk,tsk you really thought that I would just let her go. She’s got to earn it.”
“How can she earn it if she is tied over a cliff and can’t do a darn thing,” Jessie yells.
“Hmmm you figure that out Jessie you’re the smart one.” Just then Selena disappeared leaving nothing but a knife.
Chapter 4
The Ex. Girlfriend
Sara was freaking out she couldn’t hear anything that was going on done by the beach all she could hear was the water crashing against the rocks that she was hanging over.
But she could see the look on Jessie’s face and he looked scared and frightened. Suddenly Selena disappeared she just magically wasn’t there.
Jessie walked over to the knife and started to think. What could Sara possibly do to earn her life back? Then he thought of the thing Selena is most known for. Sara was to kill herself.
Jessie started to yell for Selena again. “Selena! Selena!”
Suddenly Selena came out of nowhere. “Wow that was fast I didn’t think you come up with her escape that fast.”
“It’s not an escape you witch! Why would she kill herself to have her life back?”
Selena got a sly look knowing that Jessie was close to what her point was in having Sara kill herself.
“You want her to die in front of Gorlick so I can’t become a pure angel, don’t you?”
Selena clapped her hands in sarcasm “Good job honey. Then you come back to me and we can continue from where we left off.”
“I’d rather die a thousand deaths then be with you again,” Jessie yells at the top of his lungs. His eyes are popping out of his head and his veins are popping out.
Sara heard those words over the ocean. Then it all came to her Selena was Jessie’s ex girlfriend. Sara thought in her head I wonder what this girl did so badly that Jessie didn’t want to be with her ever again. Sara started to squeal trying to get their attention and she caught Selena’s right away.
“Oh, it looks like our little human over here is trying to get our attention.” Selena snapped her fingers and in a second Sara was in the sand right between Jessie and Selena.
She could feel the tension between the two. It was very powerful the hatred that was coming from Jessie. Sara could only feel jealousy and lust toward Jessie, which made Sara a little uncomfortable now.
“What were you trying to tell us, human?” Selena says like a dictator.
“Will you please stop calling her human? She has a name!” Jessie yells before Sara is given a chance to talk.
“Fine, what do you want to say, Sara?”
At that moment Sara is able to talk she could move her mouth and her hands were untied. She quickly ran to Jessie’s side and held on to him as he held her not wanting to let go.
“I wanted to know something. Were you guys once a…a…couple?”
Jessie sighed and said “sadly yes,”
“Sadly!?!? When we were dating you said it was one of the happiest times of your life and not that your with THAT you say it’s the worst time!” Selena yells.
“I never said that you liar. I hated being with you, but you refused to let me say anything. So Awhile watching Sara I finally just ditched you.”
“Fine believe whatever you want,” said Selena trying to hide her anger.
Sara holds on tighter to Jessie. Her head half way into his shirt.
Jessie puts his arm around her so nothing could tear them apart. “Selena, we had some great times but there were a lot of times when it was all about you and I was so depressed. I thought I loved you but I didn’t it was rush of the time we had that were great that kept me with you.”
Jessie holds on tighter to Sara like he was her force field. Selena looked at Sara and Jessie how close they were and how much in love they looked.
“Fine, but Sara you still have to pay for taking Jessie from me,” Selena says trying not to cry.
“Wait, what payment?” Sara says jumping away from Jessie.
Just then Selena disappears just like she did before. But when Sara was yelling for her she never came back.
Jessie was speechless. How could she do this to his love. She knew how much Sara meant to her. But yet she is still going to have Sara die so he could be free of her.
Jessie walked inside he couldn’t be outside anymore. Plus it was pitch dark out now and getting a bit chilly. He left Sara standing there. She looked scared and frightened like all that is happening is just now hitting her in the face. But Jessie wasn’t surprised this was a lot to take in. But she was doing well. She had gotten most of the sword fighting moves down in one day. But they still had a way to go.
Sara was shocked. She was just hung from a cliff unable to move and when she was finally released she found out she had a payment to owe Selena for taking Jessie away from her.
Sara was still in her pretty red dress and pretty silver heels. Wearing the necklace her mother gave her for a special occasion. She took the necklace in her hand and thought This necklace has no meaning no, but I will wear this when I die.
Chapter 5
The Journey
Sara and Jessie woke up to the dark sky. There had been no sun for 3 days since Selena left so there has been no time to train. Sara was getting lazy. She didn’t want to train she didn’t want to do anything.
Jessie tried to push her to do at least 10 push-ups a day. After awhile of being nagged on she would do 10 push-ups. After that she will go get a tub of ice cream and eat. She would gain all the calories that she just lost and gained more.
Jessie went outside and stood in the rain. He couldn’t believe what Selena was doing to him. The one thing he loved and she was going to
