3rd P.O.V

     The young aussies were yanked out into the hall and dragged down 2 flights of stairs as they all yelled and argued with the guards. They were tossed back into the cell and uniforms were waiting for them. "YOU CAN'T DO THIS", Daniel screamed running at the door only to be tazed. He dropped hard to the ground and the guards kicked him back into the room. "Strip down and put on the uniforms", the small one barked as he hit the door hard from the other side. The two sauntered down the hall, laughing. Daniel convulsed on the floor.

Beau's P.O.V

       "OH HELL NO!", I wailed. I ran towards Skip and dropped to the floor, sliding towards him on my knees. He was unconscious. We'd done "The Electric Dog Collar Challenge" before but that was like a bug bite compared to this. "S***!", I shook him. Luke stumbled over and helped lift Skip onto the rusty sheet metal. I put my head to his chest as he stopped convulsing. I heard a heartbeat. "Oh my god, he's alive", I spoke, gasping for air. I listened to the steady thumping for another minute until I realized... Skip had stopped breathing.

      "Skip.. Skip!", I wailed again. James started pumping hard on Daniel's chest. "C'mon buddy, don't you dare leave us. You. Are. Too. Young. To. Die", he exhaled between compressions. Luke had fallen to his knees and was screaming as Jai held him and whispered to himself. It's like time stopped. It was like a thousand knives going through my body. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. (bad timing but who caught my reference ;)) I couldn't hear Luke anymore. Daniel, my best friend, my dumb ass, my crab, was dying in front of me. 

     I shoved James out of the way, making him fly back against the wall. The adrenaline was making me strong. I pried Skip's mouth open, pinched his nose, and started CPR. I was sobbing. My tears falling on his rosy cheeks. I had kissed him before so I didn't care, especially if it meant saving him. I breathed hard. Skip's eyes shot open and I backed up slightly. He coughed ,yes, he was breathing. He then gasped. "Holy ****", James muttered through his tears.

     I stared down at him. He finally caught his breath and I ran my hands through his hair. His breaths turned into hard sobs that jerked him entire body. I covered his face in kisses. "You're alive. Thank you god, oh my god, you're alive. It's ok, your safe now." I kept kissing him. "Beau..", he croaked, "I. Al-m-most died. I lit-ter- r-r-rally di-ed." Luke coughed hard in the background and Jai smiled despite his eyes watering. Skip sat up slightly and gripped my neck hard and yanked me into a hard hug. He was coughing so hard I thought he was gonna vomit, but I didn't care. I was still crying. I rubbed his back. I had never hugged someone this hard in my life. Skip kissed my cheek hard and I returned the gesture. Hell, he kissed my lips and I was ok with it. It meant he was alive.

      "You f*****' gremlin", I sniffed, half smiling. He giggled and it lit up the room. "Don't you dare scare us like that again", Luke said half laughing, half shouting as he pulled us in. Skip never let go of me. "We've been put through too much to handle today", Jai said joining the group embrace. James nodded and followed Jai's lead. "This is the one time I don't mind Skip's snot on me", Luke chuckled making us all laugh hard. It felt amazing. We eventually calmed down enough to think. The boys released and I gripped Daniel's hand tight. He returned the hard squeeze and the room fell quiet.

      I took deep breaths. Jai was right. This all had happened in the process of a few hours and it had been complete chaos. It was too much. Jai was beaten, James knees taken out, Luke's fight, and now.. Daniel nearly died. My everything was almost taken from me. I shook the thought away and looked at the boys. James was lying on the other bench with his hand covering his face. Luke and Jai clung to each other  on the floor and whispered back in forth in the little twin way that I could never comprehend. I'm the oldest. I got us here and now it was my job to get us out.

    "I don't care what we have to do", I started rising to my feet. I still held Skip's hand. The boys all turned their attention towards me. You could see the pain in their eyes. It made me want to explode. "I don't care what we have to do", I repeated, my tone growling louder and my intense as I spoke, "But, We. Are. Getting. The ****. OUT. OF. HERE!"
