Melody's pov

A week and a half went by and the hope Christina and I had for whoever 'they' were, was gone. With each passing day my mother got happier and happier, due to the fact that we were losing hope for life.

They gave us food and water every other day, leaving Christina and I's throats dry and our stomach grumbling.

My mother was giving her daily rant on how we deserve to be here and how awful we are when Andy burst into the room.

"I heard sirens" he yelled.

"What are you talking about?" my mother replied.

"I was upstairs on watch and I heard sirens getting progressively closer"

"Umm alright I'll get the car, you get the girls" she rushed out of the room and down the hallway.

Andy turned to us he first united me, but as soon as he finished untying me I kicked him where the sun doesn't shine. He fell over in pain and I rushed over to Christina. I untied her and we ran out of the room and down the hallway.

We pushed the back door open and ran across the porch and down the few steps. We didn't get far because Andy grabbed us both.

"I thought you learned already. You can't escape us!" he yelled in our ears.

"Please, just let us go" I sobbed.

"Wouldn't that be nice" he laughed.

"Please, don't do this" Christina cried.

"I would but-" he was stopped by footsteps approaching us.

I turned my head and there were about 5 police officers with their guns drawn. All of a sudden there was a gun pointed at my head and a knife on Christina's throat.

"Drop your weapons!" they yelled.

"If you shoot me I'll kill them both" Andy replied. He was trying to act like he wasn't one bit scared, but it was obvious he was terrified.

"The car's ready, now let's go!" my mother, or whoever she is, rounded the corner oblivious to the 5 police officers in front of us.

"Oh looky what we've got here. Are you supposed to be Melody's rescue squad?" she laughed "Because you all have already tried at this, let's just except that she's unsavable"

Just like that my mother pulled a gun out of her back pocket, but the police stopped her from doing any other damage by shooting her. Right in the chest.

Andy dropped Christina and I, and rushed to my mother's side. He only stayed there for a second before sprinting farther into the wood. Four of the five police officers chased him, while the fifth stayed back to bring us to safety.

"Let's go!" the officer said as we ran to what seemed to be the front of the house.

"Here, get in my car so we can drive to a main road. Are either of you seriously injured, where you would need an ambulance?" he asked.

"No" Christina and I both said.

We got into the back of the officer's car and just hugged each other. All of the hope, relief, and happiness were finally coming back to us. All I wanted to do was see Dani.

**********

The officer drove us straight to the hospital so we could be checked out. Christina's head turned out to be ok and she just suffered from a mild concussion, and would be fine. Me, on the other hand, the stitches in my legs had gotten infected so I would have to go on medication. The pain isn't terrible at the moment, so they said as long as it stays that way I should be fine.

No matter how many times I asked they wouldn't tell me when I could see Dani. Until a couple hours later when Corbyn came running into Christina and I's shared room practically tackling Christina.

"Christina, I love you so much" he said into her neck.

"I love you too" she said, tears slipping out of her eyes.

"Aww you guys are so cute" I said laughing.

"Oh, hey Melody" Corbyn said.

"Where's Dani?" I asked.

"He got stuck in a meeting, but believe me when I say he fought his best to get out of it. Like our manager threatened to kick him out of the band if he couldn't control himself" he said.

"Wow" I said under my breath.

"He should be here any minute though" Corbyn said.

As if the gods were listening Dani burst into the room. I jumped out of bed and ran into his arms.

"Melody I'm so sorry for everything" he cried.

"Dani I love you so much, everything that happened then means nothing"

"I love you too, and I missed you beyond words can explain"

"Same" I replied.

(A/N) So the beginning of this chapter originally was going to be in chapter 38, but I wanted it to be its own chapter and it might as well be chapter 40. Also I am a very forgetful person, so if anything seems a little unrealistic or out of place, 1. It's a fanFICTION 2. I probably forgot something and that was my attempt on fixing it. Don't forget to smile, vote, comment, and possibly share.

Love, Kylie<3
