Hurting Hearts & Struggling Souls

Stiles's

We lost her. We lost Lourde. She's gone... Somewhere in the darkness. What do we do? What do we do!? I looked over at Natalia to see tears streaming down her face. My heart breaks to see someone crying. I walked over to her and wrapped my arms around her. "Shh, it's okay we're going to find her. Come on just stop crying and get in the car." I didn't really know how to comfort a person when they're sad and I realized it when she kept on crying. Think Stiles think! To be honest I'm happy that Lourde and Hoey broke up, I get her now. Back to Natalia. "Want to go for ice cream? Eh? Eh?" I tried brightening the mood. It actually worked she stopped crying and instead looked at me like I'm the stupidest person ever. I shrugged. Finally, she walked over to my jeep and got in I quickly opened the door and sat on the seat. I buckled my seatbelt then turned down the radio, it wasn't the time. We roamed around the place for hours but there is no sign of Lourde. Yes we tried calling but her phone turned out to be in the car.

Lourde's POV

I woke up to the sound of howling. My back hurts and so does my head. I couldn't remember what happened but after seconds I did. I still wish I hadn't though. I'm lying on my jacket under a tree and it feels wet. I guess it's from my tears hours ago. I sat up put up my hands to my face to feel it as cold as this night. It's still dark. I tried searching for my phone then remembered I didn't have it. Thinking about the fire now, I wish Joey and Amber were dead. I have never had that kind of a strong feeling to kill someone. I stood to my feet and started walking. I bet I look like a zombie, at least I walked like one. I tried to find my way home but no matter how far I walked I still wouldn't get there. It's all dark no lights, no phone, no Abby, no Joey, no nothing. Nothing. It's like an obstacle course that you'll never pass. It feels like a black hole with just darkness, absolute darkness and you keep falling though never getting to an end. Infinity, my biggest fear.

Abby's POV

So quiet. I wonder what's happening. I'm not that scared right now I don't know why. I guess because they may find me? I think I have hope that's why? I tried to stand though I struggled so much. My stomach was tied to the wall with a chain. A rope was wrapped around my arms and legs. I tried standing by pushing myself back up to the wall. Though I fell a couple of times. About my twentieth time I got sore. "Once more," I convinced myself. I surprisingly didn't fall this time. I successfully stood up. Oh lord, a pain stroke my back and feet. I took a breath and held it in. The chain got bigger on my stomach. I jumped three times. Though it didn't work. I tried ripping the rope with the chain but it was just too thick. I got mad so I jumped again as high as I can my breath still held, I did it! I tried jump-walking to touch something. At that moment I felt something sharp. It was on a shelf I think. I still can't see. With my finger I grabbed that sharp thing which I thought was a piece of glass and started to cut on the rope tied to my feet then my hands. I got rid of them then carefully took the duck-tape off of my lips. I sighed and walked trying to feel some more of the things in this room. I found a light switch, turned it on, to see a view no living thing wants to see.
