A/N: So I played the game “Creature of Kapu Cave”, but I never finished it because the game crashed, so I don’t know what the crime was or anything, or who did it. So if someone could tell me that would be great.

Disclaimer: I don’t own any characters, if they appear in the story and they’re mine I’ll tell you, but otherwise, I don’t own any one.

Nancy’s POV

“Nancy, I’m sorry, but this just isn’t working out. Sorry, I love you.”

That’s all he said. That’s all Ned said, and now I was here, sitting in my room, my cheeks tear stained, rocking on my bed. I tried to keep quiet, but it wasn’t working. I could hear footsteps coming from outside my room. They were light, probably a woman.

There was a knock, great, I thought; guess I wasn’t being quiet enough. “Nancy?” I ignored Pua. “Nancy, it’s me, ya know, Pua.”

I rolled over, “Go away Pua, I want to be sad right now.” I brought my hand up to wipe my tears away, I hadn’t been wearing waterproof mascara that day, so my face probably looked like crap.

“Nancy, being sad is not an option, so open this door, and let me in.” She knocked again. “Lemme in Nancy.” She paused. “You do know that this is my dad’s hotel, if you won’t let me in I’ll just go down to the desk and get a key.”

“Pushy,” I grumbled to myself. “Fine,” I yelled out to her. “Just give me a minute to clean myself up.” There wasn’t any reply so I got up slowly, walking over to the mirror that hung above the big dresser opposite of my bed. As I’d suspected I looked like the lead villain out of a horror film. It was bad. As much as I tried to wipe all the make up off, and reduce the red, puffiness of my eyes, it just wasn’t working. You could still tell that I had been wearing make up, and that it had smeared. My eyes were still blood shot, and eyes still puffy-

It was at that exact moment that Pua, apparently not joking about getting a key burst into the room. “Nancy!” she yelled. “This is no time to be sad, I’m going to take you to have some fun!” I groaned to myself once again. Why was that girl so happy?

“Pua, I’m not in the mood, ok? Ned broke up with me.” My eyes involuntarily started to tear up again. I swear Pua’s smile seemed to brighten for just a second, and then went into an obvious frown.

“Well that’s no fun, come on; let’s go do something fun to make up for it, please Nance?” Why was this girl so damn persistent?

I shook my head, “No Pua, I’m not going anywhere. Bye Pua, tell me if you see Frank.” With that I went back to my bed, flopping myself onto it, burying my face in my pillow. The bed sunk in the open space next to me.

She put her hand on my back, and then spoke softly, “Nancy, I’m sorry that Ned broke up with you, he wasn’t anything close to what you deserve, and-“

I bolted up, not really crying anymore, now I was just angry, “What do I deserve then Pua? What do I get? Because I loved Ned, ok, I loved him. He’s the best thing in my life, so who are you to tell me that he’s not worth it?” She seemed surprised, even I was surprised, I didn’t normally blow up like that.

“Nancy, I-“

“No Pua, you don’t know what this means to me, so could you just get out now Pua, could you just do what you’re told for once? Get out and leave me alone.”

She looked angry, but I was the one who deserved to be angry not her, so I didn’t give a shit at the moment. “Fine Nancy, have it your way.” With that she got up and stormed out.

I let myself cool off for about twenty minutes before reaching up to get my cell phone, to call Bess and George. (A/N: can you call Bess and George in this one? Sorry I haven’t played the game in forever and I don’t remember.)

Calling George first I expected her to pick up and be happy as usual, but there was no answer. Sighing I called Bess, she didn’t pick up either, he answering machine said something about baking some kind of weird food, which had recently become her new passion.

I could call my dad, I thought to myself, but no, he was probably busy. I resorted to looking through my phone book on my cell, there were a few people from school on there, also some from previous cases. A few cousins too, but I don’t think I really had a friendly enough relationship with any of them to call them. That left Frank and Joe Hardy.

Calling Frank first I was worried that he wasn’t going to pick up the phone, but then his voice came on the line. “Hello, Nancy?”

“Yeah h-“

“Sorry Nance, I can’t talk right now, I’m with Pua, she teaching me to surf.”

“But Frank, this is important-“

“Sorry Nancy I can’t come, try Joe.” Then the line went dead as he hung up.

“Ugh!” I shouted slamming my phone shut and chucking it against the wall with as much strength as I could muster up. Then resorting to my original idea I started sobbing into my pillow.

So this didn’t exactly turn out as planned, but oh well. Um.... Pua and Nancy are both really out of character, so sorry about that, but I really don’t remember much about Pua, other then I found her annoying and she said “Cool Beans” A lot (one of the kids at my school says it too so that’s the only reason I remember even that.), but yeah, any way bye. Oh, review please, it makes me happy.
