-This part is in 3rd person-

James told the driver the location and ran to the back, getting into his seat. He sat between Mr. Winters and the boys, Professor Walsh was sitting on the other side of Mr. Winters.

"We'll be there in 20 minutes. Apparently there already there holding a few hostages. Police are trying to talk to them but, all their asking is for you." James said.

"Are they doing anything to the hostages?" Liam asked.

"We don't know. Someone mentioned that they might have a bomb inside but, we're not sure."

James glanced out the window to see how close they are.

"The main thing you need to focus on is-"

James was cut by Niall pressing his hands to his ears and screaming. Everyone stared at him in confusion and before the boys could do anything. They covered their ears as well and screamed in pain. They crumbled on the floor as their nose began to bleed.

"What's wrong with them?" Mr. Winters asked as Professor Walsh crouched down to see what was happening.

"... It's Michael." James said. "Remember, they can hear farther away."

They tried to comfort the boys the best they could but, there was nothing they could do to stop it.

************************************

Zayn's P.O.V.

When I pulled my hands away, there were stained with blood. Looking over at the boys, I knew they were just as shaken up as I was. Professor Walsh handed us a tissue to clean up the blood from our nose and ears.

My ears seemed sensitive now, every noise made my ear drums vibrate violently and it was causing me to have a headache. We got back in our seats and looked at each other, thinking about the same thing.

What did we just sign up for?

I knew we were close now, there was a lot more traffic now and I could see people walking in the same direction we were going. I could see the building now with police cars around it and yellow caution tape to keep the people from getting too close.

The car stopped and James looked at us.

"I guess the main goal here is the hostages then, trying to catch them." He said.

The driver opened the door and he got out first. I followed Louis and Liam out with Niall and Harry behind me. Everyone's face had worry, fear and confusion on them as James talked to the police. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked over to see Professor Walsh.

"Good luck. You can do this, sweetie."

"Thank you." I said.

She gave me a pat on the back and pulled away. Her comment made me feel a little bit better as the police let us through. We passed the yellow caution tape as we noticed that a police car was parking in the front of the building.

There was a thud then someone hopped onto the top of the car. We stopped, recognizing the boy. It was Ashton. His short light brown hair stopped above his shoulders and his hazel eyes stared at us. He wore black sweat pants and a black short sleeve shirt showing his big biceps.

The one named Michael, hopped onto the hood of the car, leaning back on the window with his hands behind his head. His hair was dyed a dark blue now and he wore black tight jeans with a blue and black flannel.

Calum and Luke walked around the car and leaned against it. Luke was a lot taller than Calum, his blond hair pushed up and his light blue eyes looking around. Calum was tanner than the others, his dark hair cut short and his dark brown eyes were looking at Ashton as he crossed his arms.

I noticed a tattoo on his right arm and another near his left wrist. Luke and him seemed to be wearing the same tight black jeans but, Luke wore a long black shirt and Calum wore a white sleeveless shirt that said, 'Never On My Mind' on it.

Everyone seemed to quiet down as Ashton cleared his throat.

"WELCOME TO AMERICA, ONE DIRECTION!" He said, loud enough for everyone to hear him. "It is so nice to finally meet you."

"To be honest, I thought you'd be a lot more taller in person." Luke said.

"You think everyone's shorter than you." Calum said.

"Boys." Ashton said and they shut their mouths.

Ashton jumped off the car and toke a step towards us.

"Sadly, we're not here to talk. We're on a tight schedule and we'll have enough time to talk later... Maybe." He said. "This is a test"

He spoke loudly now for everyone to hear him.

"A test to see if our fellow British and Irish friends are capable of being Hero's." He said. "To see if you can handle failing every once in a while."

He another step to us.

"But we're going to give you a choice." He said. "You can turn your backs now and run back home to your mom's... Or you can stay here and show the people of American who their 'heroes' are."

We looked at each other all agreeing with each other.

"We're staying. We're not going down without a fight." Louis said.

"Dammit."

We looked at Calum to see him pull a couple of bills out of his wallet and slam it into Luke's hand. Ashton rolled his eyes at them then looked at Michael.

Michael reached into his pocket and pulled a small remote with a big red button out and tossed it to Ashton who caught it.

"Now before things get started. I have to ask." Ashton said and looked at Harry. "You and I are similar. We both see the future. So, tell me... How does this end?"

"I know how it doesn't end." Harry said. "You winning."

Ashton raised an eyebrow and said.

"Hm, really now. Because I've seen a few things as well and let's just say."

He smirked.

"Things haven't even started for the 5 of you." He chuckled, making Michael laugh and Luke and Calum smile.

"So!" He said loudly. "10 floors, each with a hostage inside, surrounded by a couple of packets of C4 and I can't remember if those things are sensitive or not so if I were you I would be very careful getting them out."

Ashton turned his back to us and asked his friends.

"How much time do you think we should give them?"

"Give them 3." Calum said.

"Now even I find that unfair." Ashton said.

"5 minutes." Michael said.

"5 minutes. Now that's better. Luke." Ashton said and Luke pulled a phone out of his back pocket, setting the time.

Ashton turned back to us.

"10 floor, 10 hostages. 5 boys, 5 minutes." He said and held the remote up. "Now, when the 5 minutes are up. I'm going to push this button and depending on how many hostages are inside... Depends on how much the custodians are going to have to clean up."

He smiled and toke a step back.

"And as for all of you." He said, pointing to the police. "If any of you even thinks about trying anything. I'll push this button and I don't care if their inside or not. It'll actually make things a lot more fun for me."

"Got it." Luke said, setting the timer.

Ashton walked back over to the car and leaned against it next to Luke.

"You have 5 minutes." He said as Luke held the phone up and pressed the start button. "GO."
