Sequel to Friday barnes the Aftermath

Chapter 8

IANS POV

I paced the room, my mind racing. Weeks since Friday's disappearance, and we still had nothing."No leads, no clues, no damn trail," I muttered, frustration boiling over.Uncle Bernie's eyes met mine, his expression grim. "We'll find her, Ian."But the doubt crept in. What if we were too late? What if...I pushed the thoughts away, focusing on the task at hand.Alex typed away on her computer, her brow furrowed. "I'm trying to hack into The Fox's potential hideouts, but nothing's panning out."Ingrid's voice trembled. "What if he's moved her? What if..."Melanie wrapped a comforting arm around her.Binky stood guard, his silent determination a reminder we weren't giving up.I stopped pacing, surveying the room.We need a break," I said. "Something to give us a direction."Uncle Bernie nodded. "I'll reach out to old contacts. Maybe someone's heard something."Alex continued typing. "I'll keep digging into the dark web."Ingrid's worry-lined face caught my attention."Stay close to Ingrid, Binky," I instructed. "Ensure her safety."Binky nodded, positioning himself protectively near Ingrid."I'll review the palace's security footage," I decided. "Maybe we missed something."Melanie joined me. "I'll help. Four eyes are better than two."We settled in, scrutinizing every frame.Uncle Bernie departed to contact his network.Alex worked tirelessly, her eyes fixed on her screens.The silence was punctuated only by the hum of computers.Suddenly, Alex looked up."Ian, I think I found a pattern..."

Fridays POV

I left a soft grunt as my eyes adjusted to the dim room i saw the chains wrapped around me and even my analytical brain could not figure out how to get out of chains. I sat slumped on the cold floor when a man approached me.

"So your the friday Barnes, who destroyed me"

Suddenly a silver trolley was pulled out followed with a set of knives i shrinked back when i ran the possibilities through my head.

"This pain is going to be 10x more the pain you gave me"

I whimpered

This was going to be a hell of a ride
