Scandals Of Summer Bay

[The Phoenix]

NOTE: I did have this almost wrote up and it was a pretty long part but then the Internet disconnected and I lost it. I'm too busy to right the whole thing out again with it being christmas and everything but I'll put the episode in note form instead.

EPISODE FIVE

-Ric walks away from Callum who calls someone on his mobile telling them to try and get to the bay faster because he has a probelm to sort out.

-Claire followed Peter who went into the bush. But before she could go after him she was stopped by Dan.

-Sally and Flynn discused the return of Danni and the Phillips. Flynn said Kane asked him if Callum could stay with them as Irene had no more room. Sally said of course he could.

-Kane and Kirsty explained to Irene that Callum caught Gus and got him arrested. He then went to visit Scott after his release from prison and he confessed Gus had threatened to kill him if he didn't do as he said. Callum then contacted Morag and the case fell apart. Irene thinks callum sounds like a knight in shining armour and is glad that Kane and Kirsty have returned.

-Ric is walking along the road when a car pulls over and a man gets out. He tells Ric that if he ever trys any stunts like hitting Callum again he'd have him to deal with. Ric asks who the hell he is anyway and the man replies "Scott Phillips".

PREVIEW: SCOTTS RETURN TO THE BAY GETS A MIXED REACTION. RIC IS FURIOUS THAT CALLUM IS ALSO STAYING AT THE CARAVAN PARK. CLAIRE CONFESSES HER WORRIES TO DAN-WITH UNEXPECTED CONSEQUENCES.

Thanks for your comments and I wish you all a Merry Christmas.

EPISODE SIX

Claire was driving out the bay distraught. The past 24 hours had been her toughest during the bay. As the rain beat down on her car she stopped to think about everything.

After stopping her, Dan had noticed that something was wrong with Claire and asked her what was wrong. She had confessed to him her worries about Peter and he seemed to be on Claires side about it. She had got a little upset so Dan comforted her and said everything will work out all right-then he kissed her.

Claire had been in shock and ran off in distress to clear her head. After a long walk she came across Ric and Cassie.

"And he is going to be staying with us!" Ric shouted angrily.

"Well perhaps we should tell Sally and Flynn that you don't want him staying here" cassie said

"They won't listen-I know they won't." ric said,"After all, Callums everyones golden boy now for getting Kane off the hook"

"Well what about Scott-you have to tell people what he said" Cassie announced

"It won't make any difference-by the sound of it Scott threatens people all the time. Besides, Grandad is up for giving Scott another chance."

"Yes but Flynn says he can't be trusted..."

As Claire walked on Ric and Cassies arguement faded away. At this moment she didn't care about threats or the Phillips or anyone else. She felt dirty and ashamed of herself.

Another person listening to Ric and Cassies arguement was Rhys. He wasn't happy that the Phillips had returned to the bay and was furious that Kane had got off.

When she returned home she saw peters mobile lying on the coffee table. It beeped to signal a message had been delivered to it. When Peter didn't cone to get his mobile Claire picked it up and read the message. Her mouth dropped and tears ran down her face again. She dropped the mobile, grabbed her car keys and stormed out the house. Rain had started to fall outside when peter returned home. He had got all the way to the diner when he realized he left his mobile at home. He picked it up and read the message:

You will have to tell her sooner or later-she will knwo something is up

It was from Josie. Peter shook his head before texting back:

Its not just your head on the line. If anyone finds out we're both in trouble.

Claire sat still in the car as the rain ran down the windows. She was just outside the bay and after thinking about everything she didn't know whether to keep driving or turn back. She wiped her eyes and looked up. her sight was halted by the raindrops on the window screen so she turned on the wipers. As she did a blinding light shined through the car and a horn beeped loudly.

EPISODE SEVEN

Ric arrived back home without Cassie. She had got a little annoyed with his ranting and said she was going to see Matilda. When he got there Sally and Flynn were laughing with Callum, Ric eyed Callum with dislike before going upstairs.

"He is getting so paranoid" Cassie said, "I haven't said anything to him but i thought Callum was right for decking Wazza"

"You know what Rics like-he is really protective over the people close to him" Matilda replied "So this Callum guy..."

Cassie smiled, she knew exactly what Matilda was going to ask.

Flynn was in the kitchen when he heard someone banging on the door. Sally answered it and a distressed looking Beth entered.

"There has been a terrible accident" Beth said, "The emergency services said they'd be a while and you were close..."

"Whats happened?" Sally asked

"Theres been a huge car crash just out of town" Beth said "You have to get there"

"Right" Flynn said. He, Sally and Beth ran out the house leaving Callum in the living room.

Ric came down stairs and asked in an aggressive tone,

"Where's everyone gone?"

"Out" Callum replied

"I guessed that" Ric said coldly.

"Theres been a car crash, so naturally they've went to see how they can help" Callum said.

"So why didn't you go? After all your the town hero" Ric said

"Listen mate, I did what I had to do. I don't want credit for it-Kane was innocent" Callum said

"Oh yeah-and who did you attack to find that out" Ric asked

"I don't know what your problem is" Callum shouted getting up from the sofa, "You of all people should understand what I done"

"How would I understand you getting your old man arrested." Ric asked

"Because you know what its like to be abused by your father don't you" Callum said

Sally, Flynn and Beth arrived at the accident sight where a car had been horribly mangeled by a lorry.

"Oh god thats Claires car" Flynn said as rain poured down his face.

Sally and Beth looked on in horror .

"So Gus-he abused you" Ric asked

"He did more than that-he tore me apart. He ruined my life all because his affair had been rumbeled"

"My dad hit me but it didn't ruin my life-I mean, it was hard and when he died..." Ric said, leaving the sentance hanging.

"Yes it was hard to cope with-the attacks. But your father never killed your mother did he?" Callum said

At the accident scene the emergency services had arrived. Peter came alongside the police and when he saw the wreck of Claires car he made to run towards it.

Flynn stopped him and said "Peter..no"

"No, she can't be" Peter said seeing the look on Flynns face "She isn't..."

"We don't know" Flynn said and on seeing the look on Peters face he added. "That is her car, but shes no where to be seen"

Thanks for the comments. I'm doing two episodes today to try and get on with some more storylines.

EPISODE 8

"We've searched the area but can't find her so I'm worried that she may be disorientated after the accident" Flynn said "But I've called Alf and he is organising a search party"

Peter pushed past Flynn and shouted frantically for Claire. He wondered why she had been driving away and then it suddenly dawned on him. When he found ehr he'd have to tell her the truth about him and Josie.

"Gus made it look like my mothers death was an accident. He rubbished my claims that he killed her." Callum said, "Then he had the nerve to turn up at her funeral. I lost it, I attacked him and he ended up in the garve. He then said that he disowned me and was going to spend some time with his real sons unlike an accident like me."

"So what happened to you?" Ric asked

"I lived rough and got into a lot of trouble. I mixed with the wrong bunch and eventually had to escape from them for my life." Callum replied, "After that my head was all over the place and the only thing i wanted was revenge on Gus. I thought telling his sons about me would be enough but then I stumbeled onto the whole armed robbery case. I was determined to see Gus suffer even if it was just an armed robbery charge instead of a murder one"

"Geez, I thought my father was bad" Ric said

"Yeah well, you know what they say-there is always some one worse off" Callum said. "I'm sorry for.."

"No mate-you did what you did for a good reason" Ric said, "I should be apologising for being such a..."

Callum laughed. For the first time in a long while he felt relieved.

Danni was getting very annoyed with Rhys now. He had still not said why he returned to the bay so Danni decided to do some digging. With no avail she was running out of options and was sitting in the bar wondering what to do next when her phone beeped. It was a text message from Stafford-Danni read it and then realised, if anyone can find something out its stafford.

Sally had returned to the caravan park to tell Ric and callum what was going on and was quite shocked to see them getting along with each other. Callum said he would go out looking for claire but when he reached the roadside someone suddenly grabbed him.

"Don't make any noise" A voice said "and stay still"

He let Callum go and said "So hows family life Callum?"

EPISODE 9

"Kenny" Callum muttered

"You remember me then do yer?" Kenny said "I hope that means you remember the money yer owe us"

"I haven't got it" Callum said "How the hell did you find me?"

Kenny ignored the question and said "Thats not good enough. You know that people end up in hospital when I don't get what I want"

"I will pay you back-its just setteling into a new area you know..."Callum said

"I understand" kenny said sinisterly, putting his hand on callums arm "But if you don't give it back to me..." He gripped Callums arm tightly causing Callum to wince. "I'll be around" He added.

Kenny walked off leaving Callum a little shaken and worried.

As the sun rose over summer bay the search teams continued to look for the missing Claire. Peter was getting quite frantic as people began returning to the Bar saying they had no luck.

"You think I should talk to him?" Kane asked Alf

"Nah, leave him be for now" Alf said "I doubt he'd listen. So how are you settling back in?"

"Its alright-just need to find a job. Scotts searching for a house for us all because we can't really be a burden on Irene for ever" Kane said

"Well, I seem to remember you were preety good at working behind this bar" Alf said.

"Are you offering me a job?" Kane said-stunned at his good fortune.

"Certainly seems so" Alf said "So.."

"Yoo Hooooo!" Colleen screeched

Alfshook his head as Collen barged in saying "You'll never guess what Marge has just told me..."

Tasha was getting really bored with robbies constant studying. She sat on the beach wondering how to get Robbies attention when Rhys walked past. He didn't show any sign that he recognised Tasha so she didn't bother to say hello. Then a few moments later Tasha witnessed a very shifty looking Danni wearing a hat and sunglasses stalking her fathers footsteps.

PREVIEW: DANNI IS SHOCKED BY WHAT STAFFORD FINDS OUT. KENNY PUTS PRESSURE ON CALLUM AND CASSIE IS SUSPICIOS AT RICS SUDDEN LIKING TO CALLUM.
