"We found her" My breath got caught in my chest, a ton of weight had been completely lifted from my chest. Tears of joy welled in my eyes, I found the strength to speak through the shock
"Oh my god, thank you. Where is she?!" He told me the police station they bought her too, I thanked him and hung up.
"They found Lexi?!" Joe questioned as I shoved things in my bag and ran out of the arena, he followed behind me and I got in the drivers seat
"I'm taking this as a yes" I was too in shock to answer any of his questions or really respond to anything at all. I've never driven so fast in my life. The car ride was full of sudden turns, tears and Joe begging me to slow down. We pulled in front of the police station, I got out and ran for the door.
"Hello, Luna Drake I'm here for-" an officer came through a set of door
"Let them through" Joe took my hand and I looked up at him as the officer approached us
"How are you guys?" I just looked at him
"You come from a show?" He asked motioning to my ring attire
"Where is Lexi?" Joe cut to the chase, obviously noticing how frustrated I was getting. The guards smile broke
"Look, we don't t know how well she is doing. No physical injuries that we can see except for a few bruises and scratches-"
"-Then what is the problem " I cut him off forcefully, Joe pulled me back by my arm
"She hasn't said a word, when we found her she was shaking and only had on an oversized shirt....she won't respond." My hand covered my mouth stopping the sob that was trying to escape, Joe tensed and pulled me into his chest. I stood with Joe holding me, I cried silently into his chest. Where was she? What happened to her?! I immediately started to think the worst, she won't talk to anyone else... but she might talk to me. I pulled away and wiped my eyes with my sleeve, the cop just looked at me, his eyes full of pity. I straightened up and dropped Joe's hand
"I don't want your pity, let me see my sister" he just stared at me
"Joe, call Jon and tell him we found her" I spoke softly over my shoulder, not looking at him, I knew he was worried
"Are you sure you should in there alone.." I began walking toward the guard
"I'll be fine. Let's go" Joe sighed before pulling out his phone. Following the guard down the hall, the nerves started to rise. I played with my fingers as a way to divert my attention, but I should've known that nothing could change or push down my feelings. We came to a room with a huge one way glass window
"I'll give you some time" I nodded at him and he walked away. I gathered the nerve to look through the glass, Lexi sat there with her knees pulled up to her chest. She was staring at the wall, not blinking at all. Her face was sunken in and dark circles surrounded her eyes, her hair seemed to be a duller blonde than I remember. She was so pale I could see the blue and purple veins cascading down her arms and leg, I held back my tears and ran my hands through my hair
"I cant do this" I breathed out to no one in particular. I stared at he for a while longer before forcing my nerves down and opening the door, she didn't budge when the door slammed. I wanted to call out to her but my voice was caught in my throat, If I wait any longer my knees will give out on me. The knot in the pit of my stomach was the size of a rock, I just stood there again. After what felt like a eternity I forced her name up
"Lexi" my voice cracked as the tears fell, she was quiet for a while. My eyes snapped to her hand when she moved it slightly
"Luna" she spoke so low I almost couldn't hear her
"It's me, Lexi. I'm here" by now I was full on crying, she slowly turned her head to look at me, her face already stained with tears. My legs carried me over to her and I crouched in front of her, she gave me a weak smile and wrapped her arms around me. I hugged her close to my body, afraid to loose her again.
