*Kori takes out her phone and texts Chris.*

*Chris texts Cassie the message again.*
On your way, you will speed
If these clues you heed.
First, to the home of authors go
And follow Alice down the rabbit hole.

Hartley woke up late, stretched, said hello to Mozart and got ready for the day. After lunch, he decided to head around campus and see what the buzz was.
There were a few students talking about the daring robbery that took place last night...Hartley smiled thinly and kept moving. It was when he stopped in the library that he saw an odd scene...Kori Anders from the Cheerleading team running in delivering what looked like messages to Cassandra Sandsmark.
Feeling invincible, Hartley decided to investigate.
"Good afternoon ladies, studying hard?"

"The home of authors...well I'm already in the library..But where's Alice.. I hate rhymes.."
She looks at Kori who shrugs and then at Hartley.
"Hi Hartley.. wish I had time to talk but apparently Chris has set up some type of puzzle for me."
Cassie goes towards the section where Alice in Wonderland is kept.

"Puzzle?"
Kori shows him the text.
"You sure this isn't just him sexting you? 'Down the rabbit hole' sounds sort of suggestive, don't you think?"

The next clue will not be on a solid nor a liquid but a gas.

"Sounds like Professor Allen's room, but it's locked on weekends. Can't imagine why he wouldn't want students going through all his chemicals without supervision..."
Hartley rudely read over Cassie's shoulder.

" Hmm.. professor's Allen's room.. Sorry Hartley.. I'm busy."
Cassie walked out the library and to the chemistry room.

Damn. She wasn't biting on him today. Hartley put a hand on his hip and rubbed his chin with his other hand as he thought. As he saw it, there were two ways he could go with things.
He could chase after Cassandra, stalk her, find out what was going on and continue this annoying cowtowing to try to curry her favor...
...or he could go get Ms. Darkholme and have her alert Ares to what was going on. This could be a critical moment in the Powell/Sandsmark relationship, after all...
He decided to go the Ares route. Hartley was tired of playing it straight for the blonde b***h...he left the library and headed for the detention room.

The Detention room was darkened and quiet (it *was* Saturday, after all) when Hartley walked in.
"Ms. Darkholme? Hello?"
Hartley wasn't really sure how else to contact her if she wasn't down here. He checked the door to her office, connected to the room, but it was empty. As he turned around to leave, the lights switched on, revealing an enormous, armor-clad figure standing in the middle of the room.
"Hartley Rathaway. You have sought to summon Ares. You have succeeded."
Hartley succeeded at not wetting his pants (barely) at the sight of the God of War, bigger than he could have ever imagined and as real as his own flesh and blood. Hartley gasped and realized he'd stopped breathing when Ares appeared.
The air smelled like sulfur.
"I....I wanted to report on Cassandra Sandsmark. She and her boyfriend are getting very close, and I'm not making any impact on their relationship-"
"You are a failure. This was expected. You and your ilk are the pawns in this game, and Cassandra Sandsmark, my dear sister, is a Queen. When she has agreed to be my champion, she will first break the neck of that insufferable principal, thus ending the pact the Gods have with this school to not harm the students."
Hartley thought that the Gods had an odd definition of 'not harming,' but it suddenly became clear why they had wanted the Rogue Boys to move the gym to Hades at Homecoming instead of just outright invading the campus.
"I did my best. Look - we need a different plan if you're going to turn Cassie against her friends. She's too loyal for this subterfuge to work. Unless you want me to outright hypnotize her-"
Ares held up a hand.
"Your gift is that of the new Gods, and therefore I find it repellent. You will not taint Cassandra's heart with it. She must turn to our side willingly."
"Well I don't know how you're going to do that, then."
A circle of fire appeared around Hartley's feet, suddenly entrapping him in a cage of fire.
"Wh-what are you doing?!"
"You lack creativity, Hartley Rathaway. Cassandra's loyalty to her friends is exactly how she will be ensnared in my trap. And you, her dear friend, Hartley...you will be the bait."
In a puff of smoke, the two vanished, leaving only the smell of sulfur in the detention room.

*Diana smiles.*
Hello, Cassie. You have come on your quest, I suppose.
*Diana holds out the note.*
Tell Mr. Powell I said to behave himself.
The next is taped to a violent sign
In our latest hangout, you will find.

*Taped to the sigh that says "If you break the peace, I'll break your head- Zinda Blake" is the next note.*
I hope you're not finding these clues a chore
Because the next one is taped to my room's door.
