Zelda Whitefield was getting stuff out of her locker when Karyn approached her. The two knew each other through Jon and Zoe. They were not friends themselves.
"I need your help," Karyn told the latex-clad cybergoth.
"With what?"
"There's this girl who moved into Jon's house who looks a lot like Zoe. She's Zoe's age and has an attitude, but isn't a Goth. They were going to punish Jon, and the whole family disappeared. I think it might have something to do with it. I want you to hack in and find out what they did to Jon."
"No way," Zelda said. "You know what they'd do to me if they caught me? I don't either, but I like me the way I am. I already have nightmares they'll catch me and change me."
Karyn nodded. She'd had the same, especially since Jon had been ordered to report. "Think about it?" She asked.
"Okay," she agreed. She paused. "Look, Karyn...I know you and Jon had a thing..." she said.
"Why do people say that everytime a guy and a girl are friends?" Karyn said. "I miss him a lot, okay? Please think about it seriously." She walked away.
