Maddy's Pov-

I had been relocated into a new family, well really it was just a couple. I mean at least the Coleman's were a nice couple, who loved each other and were actually caring for me properly, unlike the Jones' did.

They may have been taking care of me as they should be, feed me, give me clothes, have a lovely countryside cottage with a large garden, which was decorated in an army of roses but it was nothing compared to living in the busy, slightly dirty, city of London with Sherlock and John.

I would never forgive Moriarty for what he had done to my family and me, he had ruined everything, ripped us apart and broken me.

Most days I would just sit in silence, I wouldn't eat, I wouldn't talk much, I just wouldn't do anything. Some might say that I was depressed but really I was just plain heartbroken.

Mrs Coleman would try her best to make an effort with me, she'd try to comfort me, offer to take me shopping but all I wanted was them. 

I needed them. They made me who I was. They were the other parts of me, without them I was incomplete and lost.

I didn't know how much more of this I could take, it was breaking me.

I was falling apart by the minute.

I was sat in my room, on the edge of my bed, staring out the window. Once again, the typical English weather had struck and the heavens had opened up. It was bucketing down, the dark grey clouds covered the sky and made it dark, the sun had disappeared, it was like hope was gone.

I was pulled instantaneously out of my trance like state when there was a knock at the door, I decided to ignore it but Mrs Coleman thought otherwise and answered it.

A few moments later Mrs Coleman shouted up the stairs "Maddy, there's someone here to see you, come down!" She sounded excited.

Who could it be? Who had came to see me? It surely couldn't be Sherlock or John as they weren't allowed within a half mile radius of me, so who was it?

I slipped on my brown combat boots and trudged down the stairs. I strolled into the living room where I saw Mr and Mrs Coleman sitting on the sofa opposite a man, I could only see the back of his head. He had dark sleek hair.

I walked around the sofa and sat on the spare chair in the room, I looked over to my guest. It couldn't be! This wasn't happening! Not again!

There sitting opposite my foster parents was none other than Jim Moriarty, with his smug face, deep brown eyes and of course he wore a Westwood, as per usual!

My face dropped, my mouth hung low, I didn't know what to do, I didn't know what to say, I simply sat there frozen.

"Hello poppet!" He smirked, his deep Irish accent echoed in the room.

I turned to Mr and Mrs Coleman, they both smiled at me.

"Maddy, don't you remember him?" Mr Coleman asked me.

"Um well he's got a familiar face you could say..." I mumbled back.

"It's your uncle, don't you remember him?" Mrs Coleman inquired.

"No, that's not Mycroft." I told them.

"Madeline, it's me, uncle Brook...your mum's brother?" He reminded me.

"No..." I dragged out.

"Anyway, we'd better be going." Moriarty stood up and gestured to the door.

"We?" I questioned.

"Yes, he's taking you out for the day, it'll cheer you up!" Mrs Coleman pulled me up and pushed me over to him, he grabbed hold of my wrist.

"What!" I raised my voice. "You can't let him take me!"

"He's your uncle for goodness sake and he wants to take you out for the day, don't be so ungreatful!" Mr Coleman countered.

"He's not my uncle!" I shouted back.

"Of course he is, don't be silly! You just don't remember him!" Mrs Coleman assured me.

"He isn't, he's here to kidnap me! Listen to me!" I tried to pull my wrist away from him but his grasp was too tight.

"No he isn't! Why would you say that? Why would your uncle want to kidnap you?" She asked me.

"HE ISN'T MY UNCLE!" I protested.

They sighed, "We're so sorry about this, she hasn't been taking this all too well." Mr Coleman told him.

"Understandable but I'm sure we'll have a good time and she'll feel a lot better." He told them.

I turned to Moriarty in disbelief, this seriously wasn't happening! All I wanted to do was to wipe that big smirk off his face.

He began to pull me towards the door.

"No, please!" I pleaded to them. "Don't let him do this!"

"Come on Madeline, dearest." He emphasised as he pulled open the door.

I tried to grab hold of something, anything!

He dragged me out the door and down the drive to his jet black, shiny Range Rover parked near by. I dug my boots into the gravel, scuffing my shoes as he pulled me away. How did the Coleman's not notice that something was wrong here? I mean he was dragging me down the drive for God's sakes! 

He eventually got me in the passenger's seat in the rover, he joined me in the front in the driver's seat. He then pulled away from the house.

"So, how's it going?" He asked me, keeping his eyes on the road.

"Oh, you know alright I guess." I replied to him with sarcasm.

"We're going away for a little while, well more you are actually." He teased.

With that, I realised there were two men in the back seat, one held me firmly still and down in the seat whilst another pulled out a needle and syringe, he then plunged it into my arm and squeezed the liquid into me.

"I told you, I told you both to stay out of my way so now I'm cashing in my IOU with daddy dearest." He said dangerously to me.

"Do-don-t  yo-u  da-re  h-ur-t  h-im" I weakly threatened as I was slipping away.

"Oh, it's not him you should be worrying about..." He turned to me and smirked once again.

Then I fell unconscious, in a deep sleep.

What was going to happen to me?

Hello!

Sorry for the, sort of, cliffhanger. 

Unfortuntely I won't be updating until Monday or Tuesday as I'm away for the weekend...

Let me know your thoughts, always love to hear them.

Thanks to all who vote, comment and read...It means the world to me!

Till then...
