They were released and hit the road again. I wouldn't have had the guts to do it, but still I had to tag along. One day while we were crossing Cleveland to get to Columbus, in Ohio, something happened that dampened our spirits. All 10 of us were in the bus playing charades or something. And it was my turn I had gotten "Friends". We had agreed to be able to use noises, so I started humming the theme to "Friends". Nick, who was on my team, immediately caught on and started singing so I joined him.

"So no one told you life was gonna be this way, your job's a joke, your broke, your love life's DOA. It's like you're always stuck in second gear." Everybody else joined in "When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month or even your year!!! But I'll be there for you, when the rain starts to pour, I'll be there for like you've been there before, I'll be there for you 'cause you're there for me too!" As we all finished singing, I toppled on the floor in laughter, then Reese shouted "FRIENDS!" and I convulsed in laughter.

"We won!" Brian shouted and started parading around the isle. That set me off even more, Justin seeing me laugh so hard, contributed to the cause and started tickling me.

"Hey!" I said in between laughter.

"Let's tickle her to death!" he shouted and everybody huddled around me.

"NO! It's mutiny!" I shouted laughing and kicked around, just then the bus stopped dead. Our laughter died, and I stood up, giving Justin and Reese my "what the?" look. Andrew, stepped forward and walked towards.

"I'm gonna see what happened, you guys stay here." I nodded my head, but reached for my gun at my side. Just then my cell rang and we all jumped a mile.

"H-hello?" I asked

"Marianne, it me Agent Prezzioso, Jenny Prezzioso. I'm afraid I have bad news."

"What type?" I asked my voice shaking.

"Agent Catham was found dead in his apartment today."

I stood there, and almost dropped my cell, which Reese caught and took over. A few minutes later he hung up.

"Catham is"

"Dead." I finished for Reese.
