Chapter 4: Piece of Paper
Will spent all weekend contemplating how he would go about finding out the truth about the paper. He figured he'd wait it out till Monday and then do some investigating at lunch. He knew something was going on. He just wasn't quite sure.
Monday rolled around and Will was ready. He literally tuned out during his classes. Lunch was the only thing on his mind. He saw Brett talking to Gavin. He went around and hid behind the bushes. A perfect spot to transfer the dialog into the Book of Truth.

That night the two of them snuck into the Wilsons' house. Courtney happened to be a Femme Nikita. Now if they were hiding something they'd need room, lots of room.

"Courtney, whadda ya think you're doin'?"
