By now, Charlie realized that Liam wasn't with him and he grew worried. "Liam?" he asked looking around the bar. "Liam!" he called. The blonde looked all over the bar for his friend but wasn't able to find him. Charlie thought about what a terrible person he must be. He suggested that they go to the bar and now he can't even find Liam. What if something happened to him? 

"Liam where are you?" Charlie asked as he walked outside. He came to the conclusion Liam wasn't in the bar. "LIAM!" He called. Charlie walked by an alleyway, tears swelled in his eyes. How badly he wanted to see Liam safe. 

"We have to find a way to hide his body" "Let's just keep him here" "And get caught?" Charlie heard the voices of men in the alleyway. He peeked around the corner and saw silhouettes of two men standing beside a body. As the streetlight flicked on Charlie could see the body was that of Liam's! He began to think of some kind of plan to bring his friend to safety. Then he thought of the worst. What if he's dead? 

With a thought like this, Charlie knew he had to act fast. Without thinking he raced into the alleyway to see if his friend was okay. "Liam! Liam! Oh, don't worry I'll get help!" Charlie said in a shaky voice. He stood up and attempted to run away but one of the men grabbed his wrist. "Oh, you aren't going anywhere," he said in a raspy voice. Charlie started screaming but a large hand covered his mouth. Charlie wriggled trying to break free from the man's grip but the man kept a firm grip on the boy. Charlie was able to break half of his mouth free and bit down on the man's hand causing the man to let him go and cry out in pain. 

Charlie quickly raced out of there to go and get help. "Get back here you little bastard!" the man called. But Charlie ignored them and made it back to the tour bus where the bus driver John was on the phone with the police and Violet, Sam, and Max were waiting anxiously for some sign that their friends were okay. "Look it's Charlie!" Violet said. Sam jumped from the steps leading to the door of the bus and raced over to Charlie. "Charlie, where the hell is Liam?" Sam asked. Charlie was a bit annoyed Sam didn't ask if he was hurt. But he had Liam to worry about. So ignoring Sam, Charlie ran over to John. "John, Liam was drugged by two men, and now they're keeping him hostage!" Charlie said. "What?" Violet, Sam, and Max said in unison. Again Charlie ignored them and listened as John told the police about Charlie's discovery and asked them to send some ambulances. 

The police arrived and arrested the men. While the paramedics took Liam to the nearest hospital. John decided to tell Axl what happened to Liam.
