Apparently some where the two friends had taken an oath of silence. They wouldn't talk about their kidnapping at all.

They wouldn't talk to the sheriff nor any of his deputies.

They only told the Sheriff who they were and how old they were.

********************************************************************

The Sheriff had been right about Woody's nose and Lexi's wrist. Both had their bones rebroken and set. 

They were then placed in a private room. 

 Detective John Miller was called and so were the kids' parents.

Somehow, the news of their rescue was leaked to the news. 

It turned out to be one of the nurses.

***************************************************************************

 The only people that got the full story was the FBI Supervisor who promised to keep what he heard out of the casefile unless said file was sealed. They made Detective Miller promise as well.

Together with the Detective and the FBI Supervisor as their witnesses, Alexis Finn and Woodland Demars swore the following:

"We, Alexis Finn and Woodland Demars, swear on our friendship we will never tell anybody except for those who need to know, what truly happened during our month in captivity." 

"We,  Alexis Finn and Woodland Demars, swear on our friendship, we will not to bring up what happened between Jack Thomas and Woodland Demars ever again. Unless Jack Thomas asks about it first" 

With these oaths, the two friends shook hands and then hugged. 

They had taken an Oath of silence.

They had sworn on their friendship.

If one of them broke this oath, their friendship was lost and it was never to be rekindled. Whichever of them broke it, he or she would be forgiven and that was it. They would never talk to each other again.

The Oath was only to be broken if the following happened:

1. The information was needed

2. If the Fisherman caught up to them

3. If they or any of the friends they made as they were growing up, were in Danger.

The story that the two teens told was unbelievable.  Pictures were taken but any evidence of them being raped was lost because the two teens had refused give anyone permission to do a DNA test. 

That information they would take to the grave. 

The pictures of their injuries went into the casefile. The Case file was then sealed with a note:

This File is to Remain Seal until the Victims say otherwise. Anyone who is caught unsealing this File will be arrested and fined.
