Louis P.O.V.

Ugh, my head hurt like heck, it felt like it was filled with cotton. It hurt to even breath, I was thirsty, my mouth felt three sizes to big. What the heck happened. I tried to open my eyes but was met with only darkness. So I lay there taking in my surroundings.

Smell; moist, moldy, In closed, no fresh air any where. Sound; voices, men laughing and talking faintly as if through a barrier, and the crunching of... Gravel? Movement; vibrations, small bumps.

Okay, I was in a small in closed moving space? Oh great I was in the trunk of a car. I tried to move, wonderful I was tied up. I probably had a gag and blindfold too, that's why it was dark. I wiggled myself into a kinda upright position, scraping my my head against the wall to get rid of the blindfold. My eyes adjusted to the extremely faint light to see I wasn't the only one in here. The other boys were spread around me. I could see Zayn's quiff. and Harry's curly locks, an I could tell Liam was half on top of me because his shaved head scraped against my arm. How had we gotten here, the last thing I remember was leaving the studio and then... nothing.

I was working on using spit to loosen the duct tape on my mouth when we hit a pot hole. My head cracked the ceiling and I heard Liam groan from my lap. I looked at him sharply chanting silently 'please be waking up', 'please be waking up'. I used my elbow to pull his blindfold off and gazed down at him. His eyes flickered open! I grinned at him best I could with tape still on my mouth. His eyes then filled with confusion and terror; I started

working extra hard on the tape. Finally I got it so it was just hanging off my upper lip and I could talk.

"Liam, I need you to calm down okay? It's me, Lou, breath."

He nodded breathing deeply, then he looked at me with a question in his eyes.

"You want to know what happened and where we are?" He nodded again.

"Okay, well I don't know what happened. All I remember is leaving the studio. Um we're in the trunk of a car going I have no clue. Do you want me to help you sit up?" He nodded.

I leaned down then stoped," one sec." I put my mouth right next to his and grasped the tape ripping it off. He squeaked and I shushed him, using my elbows and shoulders to help him up. He was still leaning against me his head on my shoulder, but that was okay in fact it was better. He leaned over and ripped the rest of the tape off my face. For a few moments there was silence.

"What about the other boys he whispered?" He whispered

"They look fine, just haven't woken up yet."

"Oh," he paused. "Lou?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm really scared."

I shuffled closer resting my chin on the top of his head," me too Li." He buried his face in my neck. "Look we're going to be okay, we'll stay together, be safe, Paul is looking for us he'll find us, and our Directioners are better than the FBI."

"Promise?"

I sighed," Li I can't promise that. I have no idea where the he** we are or what the f*uck is going to happen. But I promised you this, you won't be alone. Your not going to have to be the strong one, or Daddy Direction. I'm here and I can help be the oldest, your not doing this on your own."

He tilted his head up and kissed me on the cheek, then he did it again, and again, and again.

"Li?"

"Yes Lou?"

"What are you doing?"

He giggled, like actually giggled," I'm trying to thank you. I would give you a hug but my cursed hands are tied behind my back."

I chuckled," your welcome."

I closed my eyes trying to block out the scary things I was thinking when suddenly the car went over a huge bump and started to rattle crazily.

" what the he**, we going off road or something!" I yelled.

Liam and I both tried to stay upright as the car bumped and rattled.

Bang! I fell on Liam, "sorry bud."

"S'ok."

We both started wriggling upright when suddenly the car came to a stop. Liam immediately stopped struggling"shhh."

I nodded, in front we heard car doors slam and foot steps come around the car. Then a voice.

"Hello... Yes sir we have them... No trouble, as easy as plucking kittens out of a river... No sir, no sarcasm... Yes sir exactly as you predicted... We're about to prep them for flight now...of corse sir... We'll keep you updated... Thank you sir." The voice was familiar but I couldn't quite place it. The question was answer when the trunk was opened and the blinding light reveled our new security guard, Alex, and some other bloke built like an ox. We watched in silent horror as they pulled Zayn then Harry out of the back of the car, injected something into their necks, and stuffed them into two of five large suitcases waiting on the ground.

Ox then grabbed Niall asking," what do I do with the little one? A full dose could put him in a coma."

I was frozen, I couldn't do anything, a small sob slipped from my mouth. Liam did a lot better," no! Please don't, please don't hurt him!"

Alex looked in the trunk and seeing us awake sneered," oh, look we've got our selves some live ones. I wonder how you two got to be chloroform resistant. Whatever it doesn't matter." Then motioning at Ox he said," pull these two out will you." Then stalked to the front of the car.

As Ox pulled us out and propped us against the car I smirked. A couple months ago I had asked Paul what was the best way to be prepared for a kidnap situation, he had jokingly replied 'chloroform tolerance'. After that I had started slipping tiny amounts into my stage water bottles, later putting some in Liam's as well. I'm not sure why I did it, but it had payed off.

Alex walked back flicking a syringe, "Here that should do the trick it's a lower concentrate."

Liam and I both squeaked as he injected the needle into Niall's neck.

"Don't like that do'ya boys." Liam whimpered as he reached into a cooler and pulled out another syringe.

"Hay Baxter you hold stripes here while I deal with this cry baby." His name was Baxter,really, I was still going to call Ox. Then I realized what he had said and I started to struggle against the hold Ox had already put me in. Liam didn't even struggle even Alex pined him the ground. His eyes found mine and caught, I stopped moving altogether. As the needle came closer to his neck I searched his eyes, I saw fear and worry, but most of all I saw a grim determination, a fighting light. I tried to convey something through my eyes, I wasn't sure what is was maybe reassurance, or comfort, or maybe I just looked plain terrified who knows. Even while the needle was inserted into his neck our eyes never broke contact until they rolled up into his head and he went limp. Seeing him like that, so venerable, I almost broke; a small sob escaped my lips.

Alex sauntered toward me a second needle in hand," your turn pretty boy." I squeezed my eyes tight as it pierced my skin, then I felt nothing.
