Hey guys, I'm back (: I just wanted to start off by saying my old stories are on my laptop that is still broken. However, I have my family computer which I started a new series on that will be my new main story FOR NOW. This idea came to me while watching so many Law and Order shows, but the death is just brief...I can't explain how or why I get these wierd ideas, but I think it's going to be a strong one. (:

She stood there in shock as her mothers blood covered her body. Her father dropped the knife and ran out of the room. Tears began to emerge from her brown eyes, as she finally caught the air that was being held in. She looked around frantically gasping for breath. Her mother had just been killed in front of her eyes because of a little fight. Gabriella screamed, grabbed her chest as if she was stabbed too. Her whole world was lying dead infront of her. She looked away and ran twords the phone.

"911 what's your emergency?"

"My mom...is...dead..."

The room was small, very bright. The chair and table were very cold as she stared into the window that mirrored her image right back. She couldn't recognize the girl staring back at her. Her eyes were puffy and dark, her long hair was messy. The sight that caught her attention the most was the necklace wrapped around her neck, having a splatter of blood on it. She looked down and took it off, cleaning the blood as she closed her eyes. She kissed it, looking up quickly as three people entered the room. Two males, and a female.

The female had long light brown hair, she was skinny, and had a friendly face as she sat down with a smile. She opened up the folder and started to gather the papers together One male had a police officer uniform, but he quickly faced the door so he could block anything out. The other male took a seat next to the woman. He was older and less friendly with his facial. He had grey hair and sad eyes.

"Hello Gabriella." The woman finally said gently. Gabriella looked up and forced a little smile, but she was tired and no way she was going to be friendly. She just lost her mom and possibly her dad too.

"Hi." She said softly.

"I'am detective Selena Thomas, we're going to talk about your current housing situation. Now we are aware that you have a grandmother living here in Alberqure." Gabriella raised an eyebrow.

"I...I do?" She asked shocked. They all exchanged looks. "I just figured she was dead...My parents weren't the kind to-" She paused shaking her head. "They never opened up to anyone..." She closed her eyes fighting back tears.

"Okay, well under this circumstance, you will be living with your Grandmother, Rocha Lupiz, your mother's mother. We have notified her and she will be coming here to pick you up." Gabriella nodded.

"You will remain under her custody for a remainder of your life, but you can live on your own when you turn eighteen on...?"

"December 14th."

"Alright, well were going to leave you in her custody, if you need us, our number is right here." She handed over a card that read, Selena Thomas following her number. Gabriella looked up and smiled at her.

"Thank you for all you've done." Gabriella got up and opened the door sitting down, waiting for this Rocha Lupiz to show up. She sighed as someone tapped her shoulder.

Radio slightly turned down, rain softly hitting the windshield, the wipers squeaking every once in a while. Rocha was sitting there silently keeping her focus on the road. Gabriella kept her eyes closed as she rested her head on the door.

"I'm sorry about what happened to your Momma mija." Gabriella jerked her head up looking over to her. Rocha looked extremely tired, her face was rather smooth then most women her age. Her hair was a shade of white, and her brown eyes resembled Gabriellas.

"Don't you mean your daughter..." Gabriella asked challenging her. As they reached a red light, she looked over to Gabriella sighing heavily.

"Look, this is our first night together. We have alot of talking to do. Can I just spend time with the granddaughter that I just found out I just had?" Gabriella stopped talking feeling sympathy twords her.

"Well, I'm 12. I play soccer and volleyball. Umm, I get straight A's-"

"That brings up another point, were enrolling you in school." Gabriella rolled her eyes. "But they have a really good soccer team...

4 years later.

"Detective Thomas." The woman looked up as she heard her name being called.

"Yes?" She threw her pen down slowly standing up. Her pregnancy was starting to challenge her walking ability.

"You have a person here looking for you." She nodded standing up and walking over to the reception area. There was this brunette teenage that girl that didn't look familiar.

"How may I help you?" She noticed she was crying. The girl looked up to her wiping her tears away. This female had long curly hair, her body was curvy, and she looked matured.

"What's wrong and who are you?" She asked in a calm manner.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Gabriella Montez." She looked at her quickly, not even noticing her after four years. She aged perfectly into a beautiful young woman.

"I would have never thought I would hear that name again. Whats the matter dear?"

"My grandmother died last night in her sleep...She was sick but we didn't think it was serious..." She wipes a few tears away.

"Oh no, I'm so sorry Gabriella..." She said sympathetically. "Does that mean you have no idea about your custody?" She shook her head. "Alright, step into my office, we will have a conversation."

After many hours of waiting, a couple storms into the precinct. The slender blonde woman that looked geniunely caring, took her glasses off and ran to the reception. The male by her side looked tired as his blue eyes drooped. His hair was half grey and half black. He hovered over his wife as they waited for someone to respond to them. A police officer walked up.

"How may I help you?"

"We are here to pick up somebody. A detective Thomas called us." The officer nodded leading them to the back. The immediate sight of Gabriella made her drop all her things and run fullspeed to her.

"Mrs. Evans." Gabriella cried into her shoulder. Adele Evans held Gabriella tightly. The Evans were close friends to the Montez's growing up. Adele and Maria went to school with each other since kindergarten.

"My have you grown Gabby." She said pulling back trying to smile. Gabby smiled slightly and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear.

"I know...How's sharpay?" She asked after hugging Robert Evans.

"Shes fine, she missed you alot. We've all missed you since you've disapeared." Gabby's head fell but she looked up quickly.

"Yeah, alot has happened...Let's go home." She said with a huge smile.

"GABRIELLA!" The teen blonde girl shouted running into the room. Her long bouncy curls bounced off her chest as she ran full speed into her long time friend. Gabby hugged her tightly beginning to cry a little bit. Sharpay released her and pulled back looking at her old friend. "Damn, you look amazing! I barely recognized you. If it weren't for those brown eyes, I would have thought you were a stranger!" She smiled widley as her white teeth flashed Gabby in the eyes.

"I should say the same thing about you." She smiled widely. "I can't believe im home again." She sighed. Sharpay grabbed her hand.

"We have alot of talking to do, and when you come to school tomorrow, we can-" Adele Evans cut her off this time.

"Shes being registered tomorrow, not starting her first day. We have to get her transcripts and then she will go to school." She paused setting her purse down. "Sweetie, we're gunna go to bed. If you need us, we will be down here." She kissed Gabriella and Sharpays forehead.

"What's your school like?" Gabby asked as they began walking up the stairs.

"Amazing! We were supposed to go there remember?" They reached the top of the stairs turning to the left as Gabriella saw many pictures hung up on the wall. She missed alot of Sharpay's life. She needed her bestfriend growing up in the worst years of her life.

"Saint Augustines?" Gabby asked confused.

"No! East High School." She smiled opening her door to a very messy room. Gabby giggled for the first time since she's been in Alberqurqe taking note of the very pink room.

"Love the pink Shar." She giggled silenty as Shar pulled out the bed under her bed putting a blanket and pillow on it.

"Better not be sarcastic." She growled back. Gabby rolled her eyes smiling. She observed the room looking at all the pictures on her wall of fame. Sharpay was an elite actress growing up, still is. She couldn't believe how well she turned out in life. Suddenly a book hits her in her rear and she quickly turns around looking at the book. It was a yearbook from last year.

"What the hell...?" She asks bending over and picking it up. Gabby slowly walks over to Shar's bed and lies next to her opening the year book. The first page had a picture of the Basketball team hoisting a trophy. There was a boy in there that was very muscular, had light brown shaggy hair and turquoise eyes smiling, standing next to a coach and the trophy. She kept flipping through the book seeing alot of this kid. "Is this kid like ''?" She asked pointing at the picture.

"Troy Bolton? Oh yeah, he's my bestfriend." She smiles getting of the bed, turning off the lights, then turning her lamp on. Come on, its 11:30. We both have to get up bright and early tomorrow." She smiled turning the lamp off.

"Troy Bolton." Gabriella whispered to herself quietly. That name and face was so familiar.
