Not him, HER

{28 - The Documentary}

The half Korean Mexican girl stood in her dressing room staring down at her lit phone screen. She bit the inside of her cheek as she re-read the message over and over again. Her left hand curled into a fist as she stabbed her long acrylic nails into her palm. Her eyes widened at the next message that came in, a picture of her with a blindfold on and her hands tied. She sat by the edge of a mountain near a beach. Her heart began to race in worry as her hands started to shake.

Unknown Number-

If you want her to live I suggest you come to this address.

ALONE, no playing games.

Leah gulped as she lifted her head, her eyes scanning the room not seeing any sign of the girls. The girls of Eternal had all gone out to film dance videos with the other dancers before the opening acts of Street Woman Fighter 2 tour. It was the second to last concert they would be having this year. She looked down at her clothes still wearing her clothes from earlier. She hadn't changed at all and had stared at her phone for at least an hour. Her phone buzzed on her phone as she read the no caller id. She answered the phone by placing it against her ear. "Honey, don't keep me waiting. You know I have little patience, all I have to do is give her a push and she's gone." Her left eye twitched in fear knowing that Howl is doing this to get back at her. She had been suspicious of him these past few days. He had stayed quiet and there had been no sign of him at all. He didn't attend the court case and he had disappeared like thin dust. Making the court and the police believe that what the women were saying is the truth about him. "Fine, I'll be there. Just.. Don't hurt her." She spoke with a shaky voice afraid of what could happen to her.

She didn't want anyone to get hurt because of her mistakes, because of her weakness and naiveness when she was a teenage girl. "Sure, I expect you to be here in the next thirty minutes. The latest forty and if you're not, I should be worried about our poor little hostage." He maliciously laughed as he hung up the phone knowing that would be enough to get her to hurry. He's well aware she won't take her time and will manage to be there on time. After all, life is on the stake right now. 

 Leah didn't hesitate to grab her black coat and her purse from the couch. Luckily no one was in the room or outside, to watch her grab her things and leave in a hurry. Her green/blue eyes scanned the halls making sure no one was around. She couldn't risk anyone seeing her and stopping her. There's no time for her to explain to anyone what's happening right now. Pushing the back door open, she's greeted by a cold breeze lingering in the air. She pulled her hat down covering most of her face as she ran to the parking lot. Her eyes looked everyone incase paparazzis came out of nowhere and swarmed her.

Ivy headed down the hall with her heels clicking against the marble floorings. Her phone pressed against her right ear as she laughed at something Yuqi had told her. She made her way to the dressing room in search of her leader, getting the information that they would be heading upstate in the next fifteen minutes. All the dancers needed to gather around backstage to start the grand opening. She knocked on the door waiting for something but didn't hear anything. She found it odd as her hand landed on the handle pushing the door wide open. Her brows furrowed in confusion as she looked around in search of the brunette girl. "Leah?" She called out her name, maybe thinking she's inside the bathroom changing. She knocked on the bathroom door twice waiting for a response. "Are you in there? Don't be alarmed, I'm coming in." She opened the door to be met with pure darkness. She flickered the lights on not finding anyone nor a single trace of her.

Letting out a shaky breath her eyes landed on the couch finding her belongings along with the other girls. The only things missing are Leah's coat and purse. "Yuqi, let me call you back." She hung up the phone as she stood there in pure disbelief. She didn't know what to think or do. They have never been in this kind of situation in which Leah just disappeared without saying anything. She dialed her number placing the phone against her ear hearing it ring. She bit her thumb nail as she paced around the room unsure of what to do. Howl smirked as his grip slowly tightened around her neck watching her gasp for air.
