Crying For Help

Chapter Ten

Thomas' P.O.V.

Brandon and I followed the tracks the best as we could and found ourselves in a wooded area. There was a black van, which I was sure was the one that Bo was in last time I saw, but it was quite a distance away. "Okay, I'm not sure how many people are with him.. probably only a few." I said and Brandon nodded. We ended up slowly making our way towards the van but I felt someone grab me and I also heard Brandon yelp.

I fell to the ground and looked up and saw the guy who got me previously and smirked, "It's the guy before, and this time he brought a friend." I saw Brandon was shaking from fear as he rolled over on his back and gulped, looking up at the guy who got Bo last time.

"Well, maybe they could help him." The guy responded. They were both wearing all black, I guess to blend in. If so, it worked. "I mean, he did run off and I know he's probably looking for help." I saw Brandon slowly crawl out of sight as the guy talked. "He went that way." The guy pointed from the direction we came. "Anyways-" he was cut off because Brandon hit him across the head with a broken off tree branch.

I kicked the guy that was holding me in the chest then scrambled back as he fell back from the power of the kick. Brandon then hit him across the head which broke the branch then started running, me right behind him. A while ahead of me I saw a lanky looking figure leaning on a tree. Bo. I grabbed Brandon's arm and he was stopped with a halt. "What?" He whispered for some reason. I pointed towards Bo.

"He's there. We need to go try to find out what the guy meant by, "maybe they could help him."" Brandon nodded in agreement. We both straightened ourselves out and regained our breath. We walked over to him and it sounded like he was crying.. why every time we walk over to him he is at his weakest moments?

He looked up and pushed his hair back, his face showing relief and worry at the same time. He moved his mouth as if he wanted to say something but he couldn't find the words. "Bo.. are you okay?" Brandon asked and I have him a look that said, "Really?" I guess Brandon found the question stupid because of course Bo wasn't okay.

"What happened?" I asked which I found more useful then, "Are you okay?" Bo stood there silently as he still tried to find the right words to say to the new question, and once he finally did.

It was quite shocking.
