Mr. Jones looked up from his coffee. "Jackson, go get your brother." He said. "It's time to go to school and he hasn't even had breakfast yet."

Mr. Jones gave him a stern look. "Yes, you do. He's been upset lately and I don't need you to make it worse."

"Okay, okay." Jackson relented. He half-sprinted the hall to Chaz's room and knocked on the door loudly. "Hey! We have to go to school!" He shouted.

Nothing but silence.

Jackson frowned. That's weird... He thought. He pushed the door open. "Dude! Are you still asleep? It's already ei-"

Jackson stared, wide-eyed and frozen with horror.

"CHAZ!"
