Chapter 25 - Rescued

Silence surrounded the building, the only sound was the owls and crickets outside. You could see the light of the moon try to shine inside through the holes in the roof. Yesterday, when we got here, Travis was ordering Lenard and Rodger to go do a bunch of shit. There was practically spit flying out of his mouth as he barked out orders. He was acting as if he was preparing for a battle when there wasn't even one, he just looked like he was paranoid over nothing, unless he knows something that I don't, which is most likely it. 

I didn't get any sleep due to how uncomfortable I was from just sitting on the floor, against a brick column, with my hands tied behind it. My neck was hurting from just trying to fall asleep with my head resting on my shoulder to the side. I gave up after trying for an hour since it hopeless after that point. I probably have bags under my eyes and look dead. I feel dead with how exhausted I was though I could tell I wasn't the only one since Catherine and Annabelle stayed up all night with me as well because they couldn't sleep either. 

Today, Travis left to go talk to someone. Honestly, at this point, I couldn't give a shit where he goes. Right now, we were all alone, in the dark with only the little light of the moon showing. I yawned, my eyelids drooping closed. I was close to falling asleep till I heard stomping footsteps and a gunshot go off. I jumped a bit, startled by the sound. I looked over to see Travis walked towards us with the gun in his hand and a scowl on his face. That's probably why there are wrinkles on his face, must be from all the scowling. 

"What the hell did you say to her?!" Travis bellowed toward me.

"To who?" I asked though I knew what he was talking about. Travis growled before lurching down and grabbing my neck, pushing me back, making me hit my head against the brick. I gasped as he tightened his hold on my neck. I clawed at his hand, trying to get him to let go.

"Let go of her!" both Catherine and Annabelle shouted at Travis. He snapped his head towards them, still scowling.

"Both of you, shut the fuck up or I will kill you" Travis hissed before turning back to me. "Tell me what the fuck you said to Hayley or else" Travis spat. I just kept gasping for air though it was impossible since his hands were too tight against my neck, leaving me unable to breathe.

"She can't answer you if she can't breath dumbass!" Catherine snapped at him. I start to see spots, my eyes almost rolling back. After thinking about it, Travis finally let go of my throat. I gasped, taking in a deep breath before coughing. I glared at him through my hair that had fallen in front of my face.

"Now tell me what you told her" Travis said as calmly as he could.

"Fuck you" I spat. He growled yet again and pressed the gun against my stomach.

"Spill. Now" Travis demanded.

"Fine, I simply said nothing, everything was already clear from the beginning with how much of a dumbass you are to blindfold her and think that she'd go along with what you were doing" I hissed.

"Then how the fuck does she and that little shit, Jack, know how our location now after moving?!" Travis yelled. My eyes widened.

"Wait what? How do you know that?" I asked.

"None of your business, all you have to know is that once I see that fiance of yours, he is as good as dead" Travis said, smirking. I struggled against the restraints as I glared at him again.

"Don't you dare even try or else you'll have to deal with me you bastard!" I shouted.

"Watch me" he simply said before walking off.

"You have to calm down Amy, your emotions are everywhere, it's not healthy for the baby" Annabelle said.

"I'll kill him!" I yelled, ignoring the suggestion.

"Amy, Jack will be fine, he's not going to be alone" Catherine tried to reassure me but I couldn't calm down, my anger has hit the roof.

Lenard and Rodger walked over towards us and untied us, though I was struggling against Lenard's grip on both my upper arms. I kneed him in between the legs and he fell towards the floor, groaning in pain. I kicked him in his stomach, hard before kicking his face, making his nose bleed and spit blood onto the floor. I was grabbed by Rodger but I elbowed him in his gut before spinning around and punching his face. Catherine ended up running in and kicking Lenard on the floor, who was about to get up.

"I'm done complying," I growled out.

I was quick to grab Rodger's gun from the holder in his belt before he could straighten up and grab it himself. I pointed it at him, my hands shaking slightly since I've never held a gun before, I barely even know how to use one. I kept a brave face on so they didn't suspect anything. Rodger raised his hands up in surrender, backing up. Lenard was currently knocked out on the floor with how badly Catherine beat him up. Annabelle and Catherine came over to stand next to both sides of me, staring Rodger down.

"Don't you dare come any closer or else I'll shoot" I warned.

"Do it, I dare you" Rodger challenged.

I was about to shoot him but I was suddenly tackled to the floor with a gunshot going off that wasn't from me. I landed on a muscular chest and heard a groan from the person I landed on. I used my hands to push myself up slightly and looked over to see Rodger, on the ground, dead with a bullet between the eyes. My eyes widened as I gasped at the body. That bullet was meant for me, not for Rodger but I got lucky. I looked down at my saviour and started to tear up at the smile I missed so much.

"Hello, sweetheart" Jack said.

"I swear if this is a dream or hallucination I'm going to lose it" I mumbled to myself mostly. Jack chuckled, holding my waist. He cupped my cheek, looking me in the eyes.

"It's not a dream, it's all real, I'm here" Jack whispered, leaning our foreheads against each other.

I couldn't hold my emotions in anymore and I finally broke down, sobbing. Jack sat up with me in his lap, straddling his waist as he engulfed me in his arms and stroked my hair. Once I finally calmed down, I pulled away slightly to look up at Jack as he looked down at me with a smile. I smiled back as he wiped my tears away before kissing both my cheeks. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him in for a kiss, which he gladly accepted by kissing me back just as roughly. It feels like it's been years but it's only been a few weeks, probably a month.

"I missed you so much" Jack whispered when we pulled away.

"I missed you too" I whispered back.

"Lovely moment but I see we get nothing huh?" I heard from behind me.

I jumped a bit making Jack chuckle again. I looked over my shoulder to see Sarah, Amanda, Caleb, John and Max standing there, all with smiling faces except Max, he was scowling towards the distance. Catherine and Annabelle were standing by Sarah and Amanda, looking happy and relieved. I was quick to get up and ran towards them, hugging both Sarah and Amanda first. They laughed as they hugged me back. I then went over to the guys and hugged them before getting to my brother. 

"Stop being grumpy for goodness sakes and just be happy," I said to him, smiling. Max rolled his eyes before pulling me into a big hug. 

"Great to have you back little sister" Max mumbled. We stayed like that for a minute before letting go. Jack came over to wrap his arm around my waist.

"Where's the little fucker? I want to kill him" Amanda asked.

"And where's my brother?" Sarah asked and I frowned.

"Was Travis not the one that shot-"

"It was Lenard but I think he's going to be unconscious for a while" John said.

"Ok but unfortunately, I'm sorry Sarah but he's still in the other location I was at, they left him in the basement to die" I explained. Sarah started to tear up as she clenched her fists.

"That rat bastard will pay for what he did to my brother" Sarah growled with a murderous look in her eyes. "I have to go back and save him" Sarah said, sighing.

"I'll go with you" Caleb said, putting his arm around her shoulder. They turned around to leave but I stopped them.

"A fair warning, you're not going to like what you see" I warned them.

They simply nodded before heading off to get Dillon. Jack turned to me and he suddenly narrowed his eyes. He lifted my chin up to analyse my neck. I was confused for a second till I remembered that Travis just recently almost choked me to death and most likely left a purple mark there. Jack was trying to control his anger but I could tell by the way he clenched his other hand into a fist, it wasn't working out much. Then he took a closer look at my whole body and I swear I thought I saw his nostrils flare.

"I'm going to kill him" Jack growled out.

"What the hell is going on here!? Shit" I heard.

We looked towards the direction of the voice to see Travis standing by the entrance, frozen as he looked at Lenard's unconscious body and Rodger's dead one. I grabbed Jack's arm before he could run forward at Travis since I saw that he had his hand on the gun in his belt holder, ready to shoot Jack if he did anything drastic and idiotic without having a plan. I don't want anyone to get hurt or anything, I need everyone protected and safe. Jack was looking at me in confusion but complied none the less though he was still agitated.

"What did you do to my men?" Travis growled out.

"Well one of them is dead and the other one is just knocked out" Amanda replied, shrugging.

"Who the hell are you?" Travis asked.

"The person who's going to beat the shit out of you" Amanda sneered as she tried to lunge towards Travis but John held her back.

"Like shit, you will" Travis said before taking his gun out and pointing it at us.

"You do know you're outnumbered right?" Amanda pointed out.

"And that I could kill you with my bare hands right now" Jack stated.

Travis just simply smiled before suddenly Jack was tackled from behind to the ground. My eyes widened as Jack wrestled with the buff guy that had pinned him to the ground, practically trying to press Jack's face against the concrete with his hand. John ran over and was about to kick the guy off Jack but then another guy ran in and held him back. Max was already fighting off some other buff guy that looked like he was on some type of shit. Amanda and I looked at each other, worried before running to go help them but I was pulled back. I looked over my shoulder to see Lenard. What the fuck? Wasn't he just unconscious twice? This guy just doesn't give up.

"Catherine, Annabelle, run!" I shouted. They hesitated but ran away from the scene.

I tried to get out of his grip but this time he had a tighter grip, digging his nails in my arm making me hiss in pain. I heard Jack call out my name. Amanda ended running and jumping on Lenard's back. He let go of me as he fell towards the floor. Amanda grabbed him by his hair and lifted his head, pulling his hair harshly before just letting it go. I flinched at the sickening crack from his head hitting the concrete floor. I helped Amanda up before running towards Jack and John who were fighting off the other two guys with only their fists.

I quickly ran over to a fallen wooden board that was supposed to be from the roof. I grabbed it and ran back over, hitting the guy that was fighting Jack over the head, knocking him to the floor. Jack grinned at me as I smiled at him. I looked over at Max to see him standing over the bloodied guy he just beat up, looking satisfied after beating him up. John and Amanda to see that Amanda was punching the other guy relentlessly as John just smirked. This is why I'm terrified of Amanda, she's got more anger than I do and that's saying a lot. Jack and I held the wooden board together before pressing it against the guy I hit chest so he was pinned to the floor.

We held him there for a while, putting pressure on the wooden board before Jack held it up and whacked him with it. The guy spat out blood before his eyes rolled back and he fell back on the floor, like Lenard, hitting his head against the floor. Jack and I high-fived before I pecked him on the lips making him grin widely. I was going to go in for a hug but I stumbled when someone was quick to grab me by my waist and spin me around so I was facing the other way as they practically hunched over me. I gasped when I heard a gunshot go off.

"Dillon no!" I heard Sarah's voice shout. 

Oh no, no, no, no. The person let go of me as they fell to the floor. I spun around to see Dillon lying there with floor soaking his shirt from the wound on his stomach. I teared up as I kneeled down near Dillon. Jack, John and Max had run off to chase Travis down. Sarah was sobbing as she held his head on her lap. Caleb was quick to call the ambulance as I pressed on his wound to stop the bleeding or at least lessen it till the ambulance comes, which I hope it's quick because there's a lot of blood.

"Why would you do that Dillon?" Sarah asked, her voice shaking.

"I couldn't let Amy die" Dillon muttered out.

"Thank you Dillon, really" I said, smiling slightly but it fell. Dillon was smiling too but his eyes were drooping closed.

"Amanda, go find Catherine and Annabelle and look after them please" I said to Amanda. Amanda nodded and ran off to find them. I looked towards Sarah who had tears running down her face and was a sniffling mess. I put my reassuring hand on her shoulder and she looked at me.

"I promise, he's going to be alright" I said, though I wasn't so sure myself.

"I hope so, I can't lose my brother Amy" Sarah said before letting out another sob. I shuffled over to sit next to Sarah while still pressing his wound and she put her head on my shoulder.

"Dillon is going to get through this Sarah, he's strong" I said and she just nodded against my shoulder.

I heard the sirens from the ambulance in the distance. Caleb ran in with the paramedics and police behind him. The paramedics loaded Dillon up on a stretcher before taking him into the ambulance. Sarah went with him and I was going to go too but I felt a hand on my shoulder stop me. I turned to see Jack frowning. I threw myself at him, wrapping my arms around his neck, the tears falling from my eyes. I could see the police shoving Travis into their car while yelling at him. It was over but now there was the wait.

"It's over now, everything is going to be alright love" Jack whispered, stroking my hair.

Once I calmed down, Jack picked me up bridal style and carried me towards a different ambulance. He talked to the paramedics about checking me and taking me to the hospital. He took us inside and put me on the stretcher, sitting beside it. Jack kissed my forehead before putting my hand on my stomach. I could tell he was tearing up so I put my hand over his. He smiled down at me.

"Hey guys, we'll be right behind you ok?" John said. Jack and I nodded before he went off with Amanda. The paramedic closed the doors before the ambulance started moving, heading towards the nearest hospital.

------------------------------------------------------

It's currently morning since after making sure that firstly the baby was ok and that I was ok, which I was thankful that the baby is healthy, I was told to sleep since it's not healthy to stay up any longer than I already have. Dillon was taken to surgery, I was told by Jack that he's ok, he's just sleeping now, still. Sarah was by his side, along with their parents and brother, Ron, yes, he came around to see his brother and sister. Jack was sleeping on the chair beside my bed since he never went home the whole night.

Lisa and my parents ended up coming when I was checked in along with Max. They were crying, which obviously made me cry for the third time that day. Catherine and Annabelle had been with me since they also had to get checked up. They took Annabelle away though, I could tell she was upset without a carer. I remember looking at Jack with a frown and he understood the look. He had nodded and kissed my forehead, knowing what to do. Lisa had told us how they had arrested David and May for being involved in my kidnapping, which I didn't even know they were involved what so ever but hey I guess they got what they deserved.

I sighed and looked towards Jack, he was snoring slightly. Our parents had gone home but were going to visit us again soon. Catherine was sleeping in the bed across from me. I'm glad that she is ok and that she never got hurt because I don't know what I would do if something had happened. I ran my fingers through my hair, lying back down, staring at the ceiling. It was so silent. I was nervous since today the police were supposed to be questioning Catherine, Annabelle and me about what happened. 

"Are you ok?" I heard, snapping me back to reality. Jack was staring down at me with worry in his eyes. I smiled and cupped his right cheek. Jack held my hand before kissing my palm. I moved over for him to lie down next to me and he got the message. Jack lied down next to me and wrapped his arms around my waist as I rested my hands on his chest. "Are you going to answer my question?" Jack asked, raising one eyebrow. 

"Yes, I'm fine, just a lot on my mind" I replied.

"Everyone is fine and if you're worried about being with the police, I'll be there with you" Jack reassured me. 

"I know but I can't help it" I mumbled as I started to trace swirls on Jack's shirt.

"Even after going through tough times such as these, you still care about others more than yourself and I love that about you" Jack said, pecking my lips. I giggled and kissed his cheek. 

"Well I mean you care about me more than I do myself" I said. Jack rolled his eyes but hugged me closer.

"I'm glad that this is all over and that you're in my arms again" Jack mumbled.

"I'm glad too, thank you for saving us" I whispered.

"Anything for our family" Jack said. I smiled at that. Jack turned to lie flat on his back and I rested my head on his chest as Jack kept his arms around my waist. 

I love my big family consisting of all my friends, my parents, sister, Jack's mother, and my precious little unborn baby. No one can hurt us anymore.
