I was in my room sulking over my ring, I had run out of excuses for David, and he was starting to worry,
I was torn from my thoughts when I heard the room door swung open, I gave out a sigh of relief when I saw it was just Jenna.
"Are you okay?" She stalked over to me, "You look like you've just seen a ghost." she said and chuckled afterward.
I just nodded, I wasn't used to being by myself in a huge house, especially in a new city.
"Anyway, where's David?" She searched around for him.
"Working, I guess," I mumbled, he was been working a lot, harder than usual, and I was starting to worry a little about his health.
"Good." She smiled. I raised an eyebrow at her not understanding the sudden excitement, "I made some calls and luckily someone called back saying they found it. They found your ring."
My mouth gaped open with joy, I couldn't keep the news all to myself, so I opened up to Jenna about it and she promised to help me find it.
"Really?"
"Yes. They sent a picture." She raised her phone to show me.
I jumped out of bed and engulfed her in a tight hug which she reciprocated, "Thank you! Thank you." I yelped excitedly.
She pulled away to look at me,
"Don't thank me yet...We still have to get it back and slide it into that pretty finger of yours."
I nodded, and just my phone began to ring, I rushed to the bed stand to pick it up, and a heartthrob smile appeared on my face when I realized it was David calling, I was about to answer it when Jenna rushed and snatched the phone from me,
"Don't answer the..."
"It's David." I let out, a bit stunned by her reaction.

"Don't answer it, he will get suspicious and ask questions...you know how defensive David gets over you. I don't want to get in trouble with him." She turned off my phone and tossed it on the bed.
"If I don't answer him, that would make him worry?"
"Which is why we need to hurry before he gets back," She said rushing me out of the door and into the car.
A few hours later.
We drove for almost 2hours, along a narrow path, unfortunately, the woman who found my ring lived on the remote side of town, at least that was what Jenna said.
The car finally came to a stop in front of a building,
"Here we are." Jenna let out.
The building looked very spooky, it was old and torn down.
"This place looks really scary, Jenna." There was synthetical about the place, I could feel it.
"Let's just get your ring and leave." She said.
I nodded and got down from the car, "This way." Jenna said gesturing me towards the house, It almost seemed like she was familiar with the place.
"I don't see anyone living here?"
"She is probably behind.." She said.
We stepped further when a masked man stepped out of it, with a huge bat in his hand.
"I've been waiting, what took you so long?"
I swallowed thickly.
"We are here!" Jenna retorted and I turned my eyes to her, she had this malicious smirk on her face as she locked eyes with me.
"What's going on?" I whispered to her.
"You'll soon find out." She turned to the masked man, "Go on, lock her up...we don't have much time." Her words startled me.
"Jenna?" I called, hoping this was some sort of prank.
"Hurry up." She yelled at the masked man,
"They took, Mark." The masked man said to her.
"He won't kill him." She said in conviction, "As long as we have the girl, Mark would be fine."
"Jenna, what's going on?" I shrieked.
"Honestly, Ali, this is not about you. No hard feelings."
"Screw you." I turned around and started walking off, but was yanked suddenly and pushed to the floor,
"Damn, you're stupid.." She let out in annoyance, "There is no way out of here, it is all land."
"Why are you doing this?"
Tears began falling out of my eyes as I stared up at the person I trusted and thought was my friend, How could she?
The masked man's smirk grew as he made his way towards me, he held the bat tighter, and before I could make a run for it, he hits me on the head, knocking me completely to the floor.
"Take her inside and tie her up."
The last thought I had before I slumped completely into darkness was why she would do this.
