Lauren's POV:
It has been three weeks since lauren has been gone and right now we are at the beach passing out fliers to people around the beach, to ask if they have seen her. Right then I passed out a flier to a guy drinking a smoothie, and he said he hasn't seen her. Just then my phone buzzed and it was a text from a unknown number, it read 'if you want lauren back come to the alley next to the library'
I ran and showed Katherine the text message then we showed the rest of my sisters. After we showed Christina, she said, "Get in the car i'm gonna call mom and dad and tell them where we are going."
We drove to the alley and it was pitch black outside, which made it creepy. We saw the exact same van, and then some guys smoking outside the van. I got out first, and then the rest got out.
"What do you want?" I ask them.
"If I were you I wouldn't act like that since we are giving your sister back." One of the guys said.
"Where's our sister?" Dani asked getting impatient.
"She's back at the wearhouse." The same guy said.
"I thought you were going to give her back to us." I said.
"Yeah in a couple days but if you want to see her you're going to have to come with us." A different guy said.
We all looked at each other and got in the van, and then we drove off. When we got there they took us inside and walked us to a door that they open. We walked in and it was a gigantic room and then I saw lauren handcuffed to a pipe, and a piece of cloth in her mouth. We all rushed over and I knelt down next to lauren and took the cloth out of her mouth.
I guess she's unconscious because she didn't move. We all sat back relieved that lauren is okay and alive. "Katherine what do you think has happened here?" I asked her.
"I don't know lauren's face is bruised up." She replied.
Just then one of the guys walked in and gave me the keys to unlock lauren's handcuffs. After I got them off we laid her down on my lap then she woke up, and opened her eyes opened. "Hey." She said. "Hey lauren, are you okay?" I asked. "Yeah i'm sore though." She said closing her eyes again.
Just then the guys walked in and grabbed lauren away from us, and swung her around. lauren woke up and then kicked the guy, he dropped but the other guy punched her and lauren then stopped kicking and fighting.
"Were actually going to drop you off, tonight but now we have to finish what we started." One of them said.
They pulled her away and started kicking her then I got up and was trying to fight back but they pushed me back and I fell on my bottom. They kept kicking her, then they got lauren to stand up, one pulled out a gun and then shot her twice one in the stomach and one in the shoulder then I pulled out my phone and called 911 because I forgot my phone was in my pocket. Then I heard sirens outside and in came paramedics, they pushed us away from lauren and then got her on a gurney and headed back to the ambulance and then drove off.
We got to the hospital and waited in the waiting room. Then the rest of the family came in and ran up to us.
--2 hours later--
Were still waiting in the room, I was on my phone when the doctor came out.
"Cimorelli." The doctor called out, we all stood up.
"Well lauren's in a coma because of blood loss, and might not make it threw the night without enough blood. And she is fifty pounds under weight." He said.
"Can I donate some of my blood to her?" I asked. The doctor shook his head and told me to follow him.
--afterwards--
I just got done donating blood that will save lauren's life. Now were just waiting for the doctor to come back out. Then he came back out, "She's awake but is in serious pain so I gave her some pain meds, and she can go home tomorrow." He said.
We went to lauren's room and she was asleep. Then nurses brought us blankets then we fell asleep.
