The missing.

The Daring Rescue

                                                                                          Caleb POV 

When I woke up for the second time I felt very different. I felt different because I could remember things about my past life that I had never been able to remember before. It felt pretty weird having all of that new information in my brain. I realized that I could not let those evil people that took me to figure out that I remembered everything. But having all of that new information in my brain also made me realize that I had to get out of here. I put my ear up to the door to see if they had left yet. I couldn't hear anything so that was a good sign but I still couldn't be sure. I then remembered them saying something about lunch. But I didn't have my phone anymore so I didn't know what time it was. But then I remembered I had my watch. 

Of course, I always had it on during games and amidst all the chaos I forgot to take it off. I look at my watch and it is noon March 15th to be exact which means that it had been a day since I was taken. But I had no clue what time they had a reservation at. I could try to escape and possibly get captured again. Or I could not take the risk and stay here. But not taking the risk brought me no closer to Charlotte. I realize that I have to do this even if I get captured. For Charlotte. I start to bang my shoulder into the door which works well. I keep doing it until I hear something crack and then I stop. I look at the door and try to open it and it slowly creaks open. I peek my head out and look around to make sure that there is nobody there. When I feel confident that they are gone I crawl out and get onto my feet. I start walking around whispering "Charlotte". 

I look outside and see a fancy restaurant but I don't recognize it. I keep walking until I see something that could be very helpful. One of the people left their phone. I walk over to it slowly and pick it up. No passcode lucky me. I open the messages app and I am shocked at what I see. There are a ton of contacts. How am I supposed to know which one to start? But then it pops out at me. A new message from a person under the name of Deena. I click on it and am shocked at what it says. It says so have you decided when you're brainwashing the girl? I quickly put the phone back down and I realize at that moment that if I and Charlotte want to get out I have to find her before they brainwash her as they did to me. 

I run down the hall and check every room with no sign of Charlotte. When I come to the last area I pray that Charlotte will be there. And when I open the door there she is still asleep. I run over to her and try to get her to wake up but I can't. I look around to see if there is anything that could help me but there is nothing. I leave the room to try to find something that will help me. I search the whole area but I don't find anything useful. I then think what am I supposed to do. I can't leave her here because who the heck knows what they will do to her. I look at my watch and it says that it is 12:20. I don't have much time left I think. If I want to save Charlotte I need to come up with something fast. 

I think of what Charlotte would do if I was in her position. She would stay calm and double-check her surroundings to make sure she hadn't missed anything. And if she still couldn't find anything she would gather supplies and try to make something that would help her. So I walked back into the room and looked again and to my surprise, I found the thing that I had missed. Plugged into an outlet was a cord-looking thing that was attached to Charlotte's hand. I walked over to it and examined it. I then thought they must have hooked her up to this and inserted some kind of medication so she wouldn't wake up. 

Sadly I was so caught up in trying to save Charlotte that I didn't realize that one of the people had come back for that phone that I had used earlier. And it wasn't until I was about to yank that cord out of Charlotte that I heard the door slam and lock. It was so sudden that I whipped around only to be met by a man holding a gun. I froze. Scared for my and Charlotte's lives. I backed against the wall as the man got closer and said "And what do you think you're doing". I then shakily say "I was trying to save my sister". He then says "And what do you need to do that for". I say "So that we could find our real family". He looks a bit surprised at that. He then says "So I take it you remember". I then say "You tell me". I then watch as the man puts down the gun and picks up a different one. I then ask "What is that?" He then says "It's to make you like your sister". And before I have time to react he pulls the trigger causing a dart to hit me in the neck. I get dizzy and tired and then everything goes black.
