(Chase's POV)

I stayed in that room. Frankly I wasn't sure what to do. The truth was when I had saw Logan taken down by Javers, I knew that I had to do what I did.

(Flashback)

(Chase walks around the gym corner to see Logan poking Javers' chest only to be pushed into the wall by Javers)

Chase: HEY!

(Chase runs up and tackles Javers to the ground trying his hardest to choke him out)

Chase: I'LL KILL YOU!! RAHHH!!

(Michael & Mark see Chase attempting to choke Javer's out. They run over to try and restrain Chase)

Mark: Chase, calm down, man!

Michael: Yeah, man he's not worth it!

Mark: You gotta cool down!

Michael: Calm down, its ok

Chase: This isn't over, Javers! Not by a long-shot!

(End Flashback)

I wasn't sure what came over me. It was like my anger and rage, something that I had always kept dormant in the past was just surfacing out of nowhere. It was strange, but at the same time, I liked it. I wanted Javers in pain. Which I can definitely say surprised me to say the least. But if you think that was a surprise, that was nothing compared to what happened the next day.

(Flashback)

Mark: Chase.

Chase: Yeah?

Mark: I was told to give this to you.(Hands him a press pass)

Chase: What's this all about?

Mark: I don't know but your presence is requested at a press conference at the courtyard.

(Chase walks out of the lounge down to the courtyard)

Jeremiah: Good afternoon PCA students! I'm Jeremiah Walker with PCA news. I'm here with Chase Matthews as he witnesses the press conference given by rival ACA wrestler, Chuck Javers. We now go to Javers on stage

Javers: I'm a man a few words, so I'll be brief. I'm here to issue a challenge. A wrestling match. Best of three series. The challenge is made for(Points at Chase) you! Chase Matthews!

(Gasps are heard in the crowd. People start to murmur)

(Chase walks up towards the stage and steps onto it an angry icy stare on his face)

Chase: As far as your challenge goes(looks at camera, then at Javers)I accept!

(more gasps are heard as Chase pounds his way through the crowd and cameramen)

(End Flashback)

I know that I probably should have thought the whole ordeal through more but, at that point, and right now, I just don't care. But there was something else I had to do. That's when Michael and Logan stepped through the door.

"Hey, man," Michael said.

"Hey," I answered not looking up from Zoey.

"How is she?" Logan then asked.

"Her condition hasn't changed," I answered. "The doctors say she'll be fine, but I see her like this and, I'm not sure what to think."

"Dude," Michael then said, "How can you accept a challenge from Chuck Javers?!"

"Listen to Michael," Logan piped up, "Why are you doing this?"

I looked at them both with the same icy stare that I gave Javers. "Revenge," I answered. I then said to them. "But I'm going to need your help. I need you both to take me to wrestling school."

"Just answer one question," Michael then said, "Do you seriously think that you can beat him?"

"I don't want to beat him," I answered, "I want him to feel the pain that so many others have felt by his hand."

Logan then smirked, "You mean the pain that Zoey felt by his hand."

I didn't look at him, but they could tell by the look on my face that it was about her. I looked down at her.

"It's my fault that she's here." I then said, my voice breaking. "If I had just told her how worried I was about her, she'd probably be standing beside us instead of in this bed." I was now fighting back tears.

"Don't blame yourself, man." Michael then started.

"I do blame myself!" I cut him off. "She should have never done this!" I was almost shouting but then I realized Zoey could be listening, so I lowered my voice. "The truth is I was relieved when they said she had an injury and had to sit out in the finals. I would never show it though. So I tried to be supportive, tried to be a good friend but there was still always something stirring inside me asking, 'What will happen?' or 'Will she get hurt?' And I had always said if anything happened to her, I would never forgive myself." I found myself walking toward the window.

"Sounds like more than just friendship there," Logan then said.

"No, no, its nothing like that." Zoey's the best…female friend I ever had. I could never see her getting hurt not even for her school."

"Ok, I buy that," Logan said skeptically as he and Michael left the room, "for now."

I was looking out the window trying to figure things out. But what I didn't see was Zoey's arm starting to stir…

Author's Note: That's right I'm not dead, just busy with work but now that school's over for me, for now I can finally take time to update. So read and review, but for the record, no flames.
