The Part of Me That You Don't See~a Dance Moms Maddie AND Mackenzie story~

Ch. 31: New Girls

"You're gonna get the reward today," Owner changed his mind. He had a creepy smile, different from how he usually acted.

"Lemme go, get my tools." He laughs as I tremble in fear. He goes into the supply closet, and I see him take his belt off through the crack in the door. Then I hear a sharp rapping on the front door upstairs and Owner curses. He dashes up the stairs, and I strain to listen to the faint voices I hear.

"Why are they here now?" Owner yells.

"Look, I did the work of kidnapping them from the park, do you want these 3 girls or not?" Another male voice raged.

Owner sighed.

"Of course I want them. Bring them in." He said. Then I hear his footsteps running down the stairs and I pretend not to be listening.

He walks toward me quickly, and I'm afraid he'll hurt me again, but surprisingly he unlocks the chains and lets me out. He pushes me upstairs and there are three girls sanding there. They look just like the girls from my dream and my heart rate speeds up, thumping in my chest. Is this even possible? Why is my dream coming true?
"Well, why are you just standing there? Introduce yourself!" Owner screamed. The taller girl flinched as he stroked her medium length blonde hair
"Well, I'm Katie." She said quietly.
"Youre a beautiful girl, Katie Kat." Owner grins.
"And you?" Owner asks the slightly shorter girl.
"I- I'm Lindsey." She said as Owner began to twirl her hair. She looked so uncomfortable that I had to interrupt.
"Sir, should I show them our room and explain the schedule?" I interjected as Lindsey sent me a thankful smile.
"Your hair smells delicious, Lindsey Loo." He purrs evilly.
"Thank you?" She stutters.
"Go on with Mackenzie, girls." He tells Katie and Lindsey.
I show them down the hall into our bedroom.
"What is going on? Why are we here! How did you get here?" Katie asks in a scared tone as soon as I shut the door.
"Hey! Youre Mackenzie Ziegler!" Lindsey shouts.
"Yeah." I smile half-heartedly. I guess I had kinda forgotten about my dance life.
"OMG! Youre such an amazing dancer! It's an honor to meet you! Will you critique me?!?" She babbles.
"I, i don't really Dance anymore." I tell her.
"What?" She asks, her face falling.
"But, I would love to be your friend." I reassure her.
"Thanks. I kinda think this dude likes me too much. He creeps me out. I'm mean, Lindsey Loo? Like, WHAT?" she says.
"I know. He's creepy. First of all, you MUST call him Owner. Second of all, if he gives you a choice between punishment and reward, choose punishment. As if right on cue, owner shouts,
"Lindsey and Mackenzie, come here."
"Remember everything I just told you." I say anxiously as she nods.
"You girls need to be rewarded."
"For what?" I squeak.
"For coming here to... Keep me company." And with that we are shoved down into the basement.
