Amy started over from the beginning, informing Gary how the strange man had come to their school the other day, looking for his brother Hawk. Amy also revealed what Stacy had told her the day after, about how her best friend had known that they were meeting up with a gang member, one claiming to be part of the Grey Elephants.
Amy was talking a lot, explaining every little detail, even adding her own opinion as to how Raven might have gotten this information. The teenage girl felt incredibly guilty and wanted Gary to know that every step of the way. His sister had never wanted to reveal anything to the gangsters about who he was, nor the fact that he had been there that day.
When talking about the kidnapping, she noticed that Gary was gritting his teeth and clenching his fists. Of course, Amy had expected this kind of reaction, her brother had been very protective of her ever since the day their mother had been hospitalised. However, Gary stayed quiet and waited for Amy to finish her story.
Eventually, his sister reached the point where she had cried for help in the coffee shop, only for Raven to reveal that everyone inside was a member of the Grey Elephants gang.
“I didn't see a way out, I really, really didn't want to tell them anything, hoping to be able to stall for more time so that you might come to save us. I don't even know what you could've done, but I didn't want to break my promise to you… but Stacy spilled the beans.” Amy admitted.
“She told them that we weren't the last people with Hawk… that it was you, Gary. Stacy told them how you barged in, told her to get the two of us out, and that that was the last time we had seen that guy's brother.”
When saying these words, Amy's hands were shaking more than before, and Gary instinctively grabbed them, trying to comfort his sister.
“It's alright, Amy. There's nothing for you to worry about. I'm honestly just happy that you made it out safe. You should have just told me everything after he came to your school. I would have told you to just tell him the truth and let me deal with it.” Gary gave Amy a weak smile.
“I know you would say this, Gary, but you can't just take on everything yourself.” Amy stated, wiping her tears away. “I've seen you trying to replace Mum, while she's in the hospital, so I didn't want to burden you any more than that. It's all Stacy's fault anyway.
'Why are those in there?' Amy wondered.
