Mitch's scream was eventually found to be in vain. The panic and stress made him think it was Aspen when it really wasn't. But one question still stands, where is she?

"Liam, I want you to call the police but don't send them anywhere, it'd be dangerous." He nodded and stepped out of the room to call.

"Mitch, " He walked over from the doorframe, scratching his arm with anxiety "go to your recent calls and trace the number that called you."

"You don't have your brother's phone number?" Zayn says.

Holding my phone to my ear, I reply to him, "I have my reasons."

The phone rings three times before a deep familiar but estranged voice answers,

"Heyyyy baby sis, did you see the weather outside? Sunny, dreadful, I can't stand it." Boy does he get on my nerves. Mine too.

"Keith I'm only younger by 11 minutes, screw off. Where's Aspen?"

"Ohh sissy's having fun! She got sleepy but she's awake now, bit drowsy she is."

"Give her the phone."

"OH SISSY, Shannon wants you!"

There was a shuffling in the call, then I hear Aspen's slightly distorted voice.

"Sha- Shannon." She was struggling to speak, almost as if she was choking on her words, but I know that's not the case.

"Shh, hey it's alright. Do you know where you are?"

"The waste management facility, 3rd floor."

"How'd you know all that?"

"He might be 11 minutes older than you but he's dumber than a sack of clams. Faked being asleep."

Sneaky lil' bastard.

"I'll be there soon, please try to keep him occupied."

"He's easy to distract." I can almost hear her smirk through the phone, though the sedatives he uses might have been compromising her speech.

"Are you going to be able to hold on until then?"

"I'm fine as long as you hurry."

I hang up the phone and tuck it under my thigh in the hospital sheets.

Harry comes over and squeezes my hand. That's when it hits; Aspen could die in there. She was the misfit, the one Keith never got along with. The outcast, the scapegoat.. I'd always felt bad for her.

But it all changed when the fire nation attacked.

WHAT?! NO!

I had to.

I get Niall to 'sweet-talk'(when in reality it was a lot of imploring) the nurse into releasing me sooner than usual. I honestly don't care whether I still have 2 bruised ribs. I'd do anything to keep my big sister safe.

I pull on a pair of jeans and slip on the flannel I had Louis bring me from home. I plant my feet on the ground  and stumble a bit before hurrying out of the hospital with everybody else at my side.

"Smells in here. And I can't see anythin'." Each of their voices extremely different from one another, I can tell who's who without the right lighting. Or any lighting at all.

Zayn takes his phone and uses it as a flashlight, hardly lighting anything in front of us in this huge building.

"Hey, there's stairs over here." Harry calls. He climbs onto the first one at it makes a creaking noise echo through out what sounded like the entire building.

We all start climbing as quietly as we can until we reach the middle of the third flight of stairs. I stop and turn to the boys.

"You haven't met him. He's always armed, he's done things you wouldn't imagine. He's been in mental hospitals, prison, I honestly have no idea what to do... I'd die if any of you got hurt or worse."

Harry steps forward, places a hand on my cheek and kisses me softly before the rest of the boys come in for a hug. Truth is none of us know what will happen in there or if all of us will get out alive.

Before I can process what had happened Harry's lips are gone and the rest of the boy's arms are absent. They'd ran up the stairs and into the room Aspen and Keith are in. I scream and yell and throw myself against the door to do anything, to help them.

They're in there alone with the worst person I'd ever met and the two people I care most about.

I want to believe none if this will get any worse.
