"Savannah?" Blake said, startled.

"What are you doing here?" She said.

Gesturing to his Mother's grave, "My mom."

"Oh."

"And you?"

"My Dad.."

"I'm sorry. When did it happen..? How?"

"Two years ago. Car crash."

Blake froze. Two years ago. Car crash. Two years ago. Car crash. The words echoed again and again in his mind. Visions of his Mother flashed by, the woods, running, screaming, tears. The maroon mini van, the bang, the-

"Blake? What's wrong?"

"N-nothing. I'm just glad to see you. Come here." Blake opened his arms wide, inviting her closer.

"What did you do to your hand??"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Okay. Blake?"

"Yes?"

"Why are you really here?"

He sighed. "My sister. I thought she might be here, but shes not. I've looked everywhere Savannah, I can't-"

And along came those pesky sobs.

Sarah didn't know what to do. All she could do was breathe through the pain of it all, but even that was difficult. By the end they were both crying.

"Who. Are. You." Sarah snarled, backing away yet again.

"I'm.."

"Are you seriously that stupid, you don't even know your own name?" She lashed out again.

"I'm Derek."

"Why did you do this, where am I. I swear to God if you don't tell me, I'll kill you."

"Uhm..if I say anything.."

"I DON'T FUCKING CARE!" She screamed. "JUST TELL ME!"

Derek got a frantic look in his eye. "Okay, OKAY! Just shh, shh. We are in an old cabin in the woods. Just out of Harrison. There's a..man. He brought me here too. I don't know why, but if I don't do everything he says, he'll kill me. And now he'll kill you too. I tried to get out, but his men guard this place."

Sarah watched as Derek turned around and revealed a massive, dark bruise on his lower back.

"They hit me, and I knew. I knew unless there was some type of miracle, I'm stuck"

"How long have you been here?"

"3 weeks."

Their eyes met, and they held eachother for dear life, crying until they heard a gunshot.
