Have you seen her?

Tortured and bound

My POV

We've landed and are heading back to the ALoft, why is it when ever Michael comes here, it's to get into something dangerous. She checked in, and head up to the same room we were in the last time.

"Ok, now that we're here, what do we do now?" I asked.

"Wait for the call," he sat on the couch, and pulled out a book, I did the same, the Tara Duncan series by Princess Sophia Adouin. I read until Michael started crying.

"Come on Michael, calm down, we'll get her back," I pulled him into a hug, and let him cry on my shoulder. After about 5 minutes, the hotel phone rang, and I answered it for him.

"Hello?"

"I hoped to have you in a hospital bed, but this will have to do," I growled in response, quietly, so she wouldn't be offended.

"Cut to the chase Rene, we don't have all day, it's monsune season, and driving in this heavy downpour is not a good idea,"

"Fine then, head to the casino del sol resort in 6 hours, and go deep into the off road across the street from it and wait for us to meet you there,"

"Ok, can I at least speak to her?" I say bluntly. There was nothing, until she finally spoke.

"T?" she sounded choked, like she was crying, and that concerned me.

"Hey, how are you?" I tried calming her a bit, but that didn't help.

"Not good, please, help," she cried over the phone, this is great, what the hell did they do to her?

"What happened?" I asked trying not to scream.

"He-he-" She was cut off, and I heard no more, the call ended, and I slammed it down.

"What? Is she ok?" I shook my head.

"Something happened, she was about to tell me when the call was cut off," .he ran his fingers through his hair and sighed.

"What are we going to do?" he shook his head.

"First, we'll get some sleep, since its twelve AM, then, we are heading to the shooting range,"

"Why?"

"You have to learn how to use a gun, if they do pull a trick,"

"But, I don't want to kill anyone," I sat next to him, and rubbed his back.

"You won't have to, only when you need to, to defend yourself," I said.

"You'll get your license, and then we'll meet them, and if it goes the way I think it goes, then we can be prepared," he nodded, and went to his room, I hope he'll be alright.

Michael's POV

A gun? I don't know if I can do this. I don't like violence, but if I have to, then I will, but I don't like the loud popping and then blood splatter, it's just, not me.......but then again, I have to protect Janet and Tianna no matter what, but I don't like this, at all.

Janet's POV

Why won't let me tell them what's going on? I was raped, and none of them care! I guess that's what happens when you're a hostage to a crazy revenge filled daughter. I struggled with my hands and finally reached the damn knot, now I just needed to loosen it. I used my left hand, and  pulled at a strand, it wouldn't budge, so I tried another on, and it pulled out. I sighed, and pulled at it more and more, until I finally pulled it out totally, and became only a loose tie, I went to pull it, when the door busted open. I froze and went back to how I was.

"Check her ties," and he came over. I backed up to the wall. Shit he can't know, can he? he pulled me forward, and retied them, tighter than before.

"Oh, you thought you could get free did you? Well, let's teach you a little lesson shall we?" She picked me up and dragged me out of the room.

"Fill the tub, and get the web cam, let's torture her, it'll drive her brother mad!" she laughed. I shook my body out her grip, and hopped away from her. She caught me by the hair, and pulled me back. I heard water run, and I screamed.

"No!" I tried to push the cloth out of my mouth, I fought to get her off of me, I can't do this l, I can't!

"Come, it'll be fun.....for me," she dragged me back into the bathroom, and I saw a tub filled with ice water. She untied the gag, and I started screaming again.

"NO!LET ME GO!" she pulled me to my knees, and pushed my head in. I tried lifting up, but she held me down, I held whatever breath I had left, until I let go, and water filled my lungs. She finally lifted me by my hair and I gasped and coughed up water at the same time. I grabbed another breath as she pushed me in again, only longer. I lost my breath and water filled my throat once again. I saw my life flash before my eyes, every part, until my head was lifted out, and I choked up spurts of water and coughed.

"Well now you see what happens if you go against me?" she pulled my head back, and slapped me.

"Ow! You crazy bitch!" I spat, and I regretted it, she dragged me by the hair, back to my room, and laid me down on my back. He came in with a cigarette in his mouth and handed it to her, while another held the web cam,

"No!" Michael screamed, he was watching the whole time. I scooted away only to be blocked off by the wall. They surrounded me, and she placed the butt of it on my arms.

"Ow! Stop, it burns!" I yelled.

"Rene stop it!" that time it was Tianna, her voice cracked, she was crying. They kept going, burning my arm, and chest 5 times each. I cried from the pain. They then put salt on one of them and it hurt even more.

"It hurts! Make it stop!" they wiped it off, and put ointment on them, and left me there, the web cam still on.

"Michael?" I said weakly.

"I'm still here,"

"I love you, and I always will," I say with tears.

"Jan, don't worry, we'll get you out of there, I promise," I smiled, and kissed at the camera. Rene came back, and turned it off.

"Next time you untie yourself, I leave you to get your head out the water yourself," she said. She flipped me on my stomach., She had another rope in her hand. She took of my shoes, taking my socks off, and pulled them over my hands, and tied it at the end. Then she took duct tape, and wrapped around the socks, immobilizing my hands from moving.

"There, now stay like that, oh! Almost forgot," She came back, and stuffed the cloth back into my mouth, and tied the other piece around it.

"That's better," she headed out the door, and locked it. I rolled onto my side, and relaxed. Great, now I couldn't even untie myself. This cloth was wet, and soggy, I wanted it out! I have to get out of here!
