The Bitch Wars 2

Chapter 11 - Taken

I was still in bed when Logan came into the room and opened the blinds, "They light! it burns!" I said as I covered my eyes. "Baby, I have to go to class, and after I have football practise so do you think you can let yourself out when you're ready?" I blushed as he called me baby. "Yeah, okay" I said cheerfully. He came on the bed and kissed me for several minutes until his friends told him to hurry.

"alright gotta go, be safe." He says as he left the room. I squealed in joy when he left.

I pulled out my phone, expecting about a thousand messages, and I was right. There here seventeen calls from my mom, dad and brother and about two dozen from Spencer.

I packed my things and took a taxi to my house, when the turned the corner to my neighbourhood, there were a four or five police cars outside my house. "Sir, please stop here." I said to the taxi, I paid with the money Logan gave me and got out of the car. I was contemplating not going home, I diden't want to face my family today or tomorrow.

I pulled out my phone and dialed Spencers number, "Hey Spence."

"Jesus, ARIA! where did you go last night! you have no idea how worried I was." Spencer sounded distressed.

"I'll come over and I can explain everyth-" All of a sudden I felt a pair of cold gloved hands grab me and pull me into the woods surrounding the neighborhood. The person grabbed me and pulled me into the darkness along with my phone. I tried to push them off as the slowly dragged me deeper and deeper into the forest, but their strong grip prevented me from moving. I screamed, but his hand covered my mouth and nose. My heart was pounding and I felt as if I was going to throw up, he was dragging my by the arms, with a blindfold across my face. I was always familiar with this forest so I had some sense of where I was going. We where going to the kissing rock. The figure dragged me, my back kept hitting against stones and sharp objects. After several minutes of straight dragging he finally stopped, I could here the river flow.

I squirmed and screamed, trying to escape. He threw me down to the floor and then tied a thick rope around my ankles, I was unable to see or move now. I violently waved my hands trying to grab him, until

THWACK

It was lights out, he hit me right over the head with a large stone.

I was lying there. Bleeding.

When I regained my senses, and was able to remove my blindfold, I found myself lying in the grass by the kissing rock, all tied up. The sun was setting My bag was just out of reach but my phone was just close enough. My head was aching and throbbing. I could hear police sirens in the distance. I was in so much pain I could not physically move, I was just to lay there and maybe even die here, all alone. I could see my phone ringing but I didn't have the strength to pick it up.

After what seemed like an eternity of just laying helplessly, I managed to prop myself against the kissing rock, waiting for someone to find me and help me. That was all I could really do. My phone began to ring and I received several voicemail messages. The began to play in a loop.

"Aria, it's your mom. Where are you? there's police everywhere, please tell me your safe."

"Aria it's Spencer, you ended in mid call, are you okay? please reply, Im worried A has you, he hurt Hanna too."

"Its Logan, Aria are you okay? I'm worried sick. I told the police you were at my place but they said you didn't make it home..please please call me back."

"Aria, we need to talk."

I was loosing so much blood I passed out on a regular basis, when I woke up it was even darker, it was pitch black. The police sirens had quieted down now, maybe they had stopped looking for me. Maybe people think I am dead and the have just stopped looking for me.

Who knows how long I will be here...who knows if that person will come back, and get rid of me for good....

I was parched, completely dehydrated by morning. It had almost been a full 24 hours and they still hadn't rescued me. I was so close. oI was weak, starving and tired when I heard footsteps in the distance, I screamed from under the cloth covering my mouth, but there was no noise. Flashlights where beaming off the tree trunks, the footsteps and voices where coming closer and closer. I was finally able to see them in the distance. My heart filled with joy. I kicked and shuffled around, trying to make as much noise as I could. Feet crunching against the dry leaves, they knew I was there.

"Aria Montgomery?" said one of the officers as she shined the flashlight right into my eyes, she then dropped the flashlight and rushed towards me, untying the knots that were keeping my limbs together. She tore off the cloth that was covering my mouth, and from then on we began to trudge through the forest making our way back to my house. Waiting there was an ambulance, three police cars, my friends and family. Hannas bloodshot eyes seemed to almost bulge out of her face as she saw me emerge from the forest. "Aria! Aria! oh my god your scared the shit out of me!" She yelped as she grabbed me and pulled me into her embrace. We both began to sob uncontrollably. "I thought I lost you." she said between gasps of air. "Why would he do this to me." I sobbed. Hanna quieted down for a moment, "To us."
