Vanished: Eric Secharia/Midnight Red Fan Fiction

Chapter 11

"YOU DID WHAT?" Thomas said standing up from the couch after I told him and the rest of the guys about what happened earlier. "He is right Lauren what the hell were you thinking?" Anthony asked. "I was thinking I would get my brother back and I was pretty damn close." "Why wouldn't you call me or any of us?" Joey added. "I don't know it was like 2:30 in the morning you guys needed to sleep and I didn't think that would happen I just wanted to see if Eric was there so we could get help and bring him back but then my phone went off and he chased me to my car." "You could of gotten yourself and Eric killed" Colton said. "Alright I messed up but we can't waste time we have to get the police and go back." "Fine. Let's go."

We were on the phone with the police and the cemetery was surrounded. It was too dangerous for all of us to go so they played rock paper scissors to see who would accompany me. Colton won. They were all mad they didn't get to go but that wasn't my concern. Colton and I walked and I showed him where the house was. We both had a chip in our ear so they could tell us anything we need to know. Colton and I approached the house. We entered slowly. Colton made me stand behind him the whole time. I showed him to the room where Eric was. He then pulled a gun from his back pocket. "Why did you have a gun?" I whispered. "For protection. Reasons like this." He then kicked in the door and Eric was no where to be found. On the chair we saw blood. He made me close my eyes. We heard the cops say in the chip, "What did you guys find is he in there? Do you need backup?" "No we are fine." Colton and I were both silent as we heard the sound of a car engine. We ran out side to see the car from last night speed away. Colton insisted that we go back and get help but I wasn't taking that risk. Eric taught me how to start a car without a key when I was younger over the summer. I pushed Colt out of the way and made my way to the closet red mustang. I started it up. "Lauren are you insane? We need help it's too dangerous." "He need my help. He's my brother. Go back to the cops and tell them just in case I don't catch them the license plate. HWRT134." "No I'm not leaving you. If you are going I'm going." "Fine then get in the car quickly."

The police tried telling us that we were making a mistake but I ignored them. Before I knew it I was doing 65 mph. "Slow down. We are trying t save Eric not kill ourselves." I tuned him out. I had one goal set and that was to catch up. After passing a bunch of cars I found the license plate to the black Mercedes. "There!" Colton said. The road was clear. I pulled next to him to find a man in the drivers seat. The one from last night. He had black hair with a matching hoodie. He saw us and drove faster. I knew I had to keep up. I had a feeling of the events that were about to occur. "Colton get out." "What forget it." "I will slow down the car enough for you to jump out but if I stop I won't be able to catch him. Get out." "No I'm not leaving you." "That wasn't an option." I unbuckled his seat belt and opened the passenger door, slowed down and pushed him out." I didn't want to do that but if I was going to catch that guy I would have my life on the line and I didn't want Colt to suffer. I heard him yell my name and scream don't do this but I kept driving. I was along side the driver again. I took a breath and remembered my loving caring older bro. He would do the same for me. I rammed the car full speed. He swerved but he didn't stop. I had to hit him again. Still wasn't stopping. Then on the corner of my eye, I saw a piece of glass on the road that was my chance. I hit the car one last time making sure it made contact with the glass. I heard the sound of the tires popping on the car. I pulled over as soon as he did. I grabbed the gun I took out of Colton's pocket and exited the car. I walked over and before I knew it I was tackled to the ground. I was kicking and punching but he still wouldn't get off so I kneed him in the stomach. That gave me a minute to get up. Then I pointed the gun at him. "Where is he?Where is Eric?" I said. "I will show you where is is if you stop pointing that gun at me." I ddn't know if I should believe him but a part of me did. I lowered the gun down so it was facing the street. "He is in the back seat." The windows were tinted so there was no way of me to see if he was telling the truth or not. I looked away and opened the door there was nothing there. I turned around and he was coming at me with the broken glass that slashed his tires I then over reacted and shot him. He fell to the ground. His final words were, I hope you die just like your brother." I then heard cop sirens and all the boys pulled up as well. They all came over and gave me a hug. "Did you find Eric?" Joey asked. "No I haven't." One of the cops examined the car and ordered another cop to pop the trunk. "GUYS OVER HERE" one of them yelled. "Its Eric!" Anthony said. "Oh my god is he alive?" "Yes just unconscious he will be just fine. We are going to take him to the hospital. Good work today kid." "Thank you." Eric went in the ambulance and we all drove behind him on our way to the hospital.
