Part two of two of Charlotte begins!

Minnesota 2013

The one thing Charlotte knew was that this must be some sick dream her subconscious was playing in her mind. But how could this be so vivid and feel so real? Charlotte was pacing back and forth in her room after she had dinner with her supposed dead mother and siblings. "This doesn't make sense," Charlotte whispered as she caught a glimpse of her seventeen year old self. She glanced over at her small desk with her old CD player on it. Not caring what she had in it she pressed play as she continued to pace as the album Red began to play. "Well, at least my music taste hasn't changed." Charlotte muttered as she picked up her phone to see texts from her old friends from high school.

Charlotte felt pain in her wrist and sat up suddenly, "What in the–" She whispered looking down to see a needle size shape on her wrist.

A knock came from her door and she glanced at her old clock and saw that a few hours had already passed. "Hey honey. Your mom said that it seemed you were acting strange at dinner? Everything okay?" Bobby Nash asked, walking into his daughter's room.

Charlotte felt a ping in her chest when she saw her dad. An image flashed in her mind of a building on fire. She blinked that image out of her mind and shook her head, "I'm fine. Just uh tired is all."

Bobby looked at his daughter, "You know you can come talk to me if you ever need anything," Bobby told her.

"I know dad. I'm about to go to bed. Will you be home in the morning?" Charlotte asked as Bobby hugged her.

"I will."

"Night dad..."

Present time

"Nora was abducted two nights ago. We found her 18 hours later, already tattooed and about to be put into a barrel to be suffocated. This makes Caleb's timeline from abduction to death approximately 24 hours." Nolan stated.

"So we have less than 10 hours to find Lucy and Charlie," Jackson exclaimed.

"Unless we're wrong and they're both already dead," Armstrong said causing Jackson and Nolan to look at the other.

"No. Look, I know I haven't known Lucy as long as the rest of you, but I do know that she is a fighter. She's gonna do everything she can to stay alive until we save her." Harper said. "And ever since I met Charlie, I know she will do everything in her will to stay alive."

"You knew Charlie before joining the LAPD?" Armstrong questioned, causing Harper to nod. Before she could answer, Nathan rushed in with Grey.

"We just got surveillance from the street Charlie was on. She was taken by a different guy."

"Do we have any leads?" Armstrong asked.

"Not yet. We have a partial license plate from the vehicle. We're running it through the database now," Nathan told him.

Charlotte slowly opened her eyes, her vision blurred and her head was throbbing. She could feel something hot a few centimeters from her skin. Panic began to rise and her breath quickened as she struggled against the chains around her body.

"You still afraid of a little fire?" Adam's voice asked in a cold and mocking way. He stood a few feet away, a cruel smile on his lips as he held a lit torch. The flickering flames casted an eerie shadow on the walls around her. Charlotte's heart raced at the sight of the fire as a memory of the apartment fire where her mother and siblings died flashed in her mind.
