Chapter 20(the end?)

|Keaton's POV|

Two men bust in the room with guns and point them at me and Drew. They scream at us to hold up our hands then asked where Wes went. They look at the broken window and tell us to move as they push us out the door.
"Come on man, just let us go." Drew pleas.

"Stop talking. Move." The guy behind Drew yelled.

They took us up a cement flight of stairs, and into a suffocatingly hot room. They pushed us in the corner and we sat on the floor. I don't know how something like a small tour can turn into...this. I almost have zero faith that we'll get out of here, and if we do I'm afraid it'll be with one less person then what we came in here with.

"Is he here?" A man sitting at a desk asks in a low stern voice.

"Yes." One of the guys that brought us in answers.

The man in the chair leans back with a devious smirk on his face, "send him in."

The door swings open after about five minutes, me and Drew watch as a fairly normal looking guy walks in. I can't really pin point how but he looks familiar.

"Long time no see buddy boy, missed seeing your pretty face, Alin." The guy at the desk says mockingly.

"Where's my daughter?"

"Let's have a little...chat, first," He rubs his face and thinks, staring straight at Alin, "I had to start my whole business over. Seven of my men were put into jail, and I lost everything. Everything. But guess what, I'm unstoppable and stronger than I was before. You're not gonna be able to mess things up this time."

"You haven't changed, you're still a bitter asshole." Alin spat.

"Say what you will, it doesn't effect me I'm still in control."

"Tell me where me daughter is!"

"Oh, I have no idea where that slut is."

"FUCK YOU!" Alin screamed. The two guards came beside him and grabbed ahold of his arms.

I scooted as far back to the wall as possible fearing that something would pop off.

"YOU DO NOT CONTROL WHAT I DO! GOT THAT! You messed up and now you suffer its a very simple concept to comprehend.'' The man pounded his desk hard with his fist.

"But my daughter has nothing to do with any of this, do whatever you want to me...just let me see her, then let her go." Alin pleaded.

"You know what you're right. I'm glad you've come into terms with the fact that you will not get out of here...alive, and I'd love for you to say goodbye to that sorry excuse for a daughter but I'm not the last one that's seen her. How about you ask these two jackasses." I look up and see the man gesturing to me and Drew.

"I-I haven't seen Liz in a while, I have no idea." I say clearing my throat.
The expression on their faces change to confusion. "Liz? No, that's not who we're talking about."

"Then...who are you talking about?" Drew asks.

"Anna. My daughter."

Now I know why he looks so familiar. Thats her dad. He's alive. I glared at him in disdain as things all started to connect.

|Anna's POV|

Wesley and I both stand there, he's unable to say anything when I repeatedly ask him what happened. "Wes..." I say again hoping this time would make a difference.

"We gotta go." He says shakily grabbing my arm, he is acting very distraught.

"What do you mean, we have to go back for them!" I insisted concerned.

"No we don't. I do, you just, just go back to the car and wait there okay."

"That's a terrible idea!"

Wes ran both of his hands down his face in frustration, "well it's the only one I have! So don't fight me on this alright I don't have the time."

"You can't just go in there by yourself, and leave me out here to wonder what's going on, like what if something bad happens, I-I can't d-deal wit-" I start to tear up and my voice starts to fade. I look at Wes for sympathy and it works.

"Stop crying. I owe it to my brother to keep you safe so that's what I haven't to do and if that means you being upset with me for a while I'll take it just as long as you're not in harms way."

"Alright..." I nod, "but."

"No buts, now go." He lightly pushed me and pointed to the road.

I walked down the dark road to find the car. Believe it or not but there is not a single street light out here. As I searched for the car a huge flash of light came from behind me along with a terrifying loud explosion. I instantly turned around and dropped to my knees and let out a bloodcurdling scream, in that moment I broke down entirely. I could feel tears running down my face and dripping from my chin. I wiped them with the back of my hand and got up. It took all the strength I had to start walking, all I wanted to do was stay on the ground forever.

Each step I took my legs grew weaker and weaker as I walked towards the burning building hoping for some type of miracle. But I knew in the back of my mind there wouldn't be one.
