I'm not gonna leave you (Kidfic)

Chapter 7 ~ Search~

Lauren was brought to the hospital to get some brain scans done, but she could care less about her wellbeing. She wanted to go find those bastards who took her sister. The doctors concluded that she had a concussion and would have to stay in the hospital.

Lauren laid in the hospital bed wide awake, her thoughts rampant with terrible, vivid, scenarios. They have already locked Camila in a closet, what else were they capable of? She decided to text the girls for their help while wallowing in sadness at the prospect of not doing anything to help her sister physically.

'Guys I need your help' Lauren texted as fast as she could.

And just like that, the girls were barging into her hospital room.

"Lauren, what the hell happened?!" Ally rushed to the girl's side.

"They have her!" Lauren sounded hysterical.

"Who has her?" Normani chimed in, face showing worry.

"Maria...and Brian," the girls gasped. "You mean your lawyer, Brian?" "No, Brian from the club; YES, THE LAWYER," Lauren bit back sarcastically.

"Well, we have to find those guys before something even worse happens!" Dinah stormed out of the room only to come back. "Um, how do we find them?"

The girls just rolled their eyes simultaneously. "I need you guys to be with the police to help find her," Lauren spoke.

"Okay, it's good we have a plan and all, but my question is what happened to you?" Normani spoke up, wondering why Lauren was lying in a hospital bed

"Brian hit me over the head and knocked me out" Lauren rubbed the spot where it hurt the most.

"What a bunch of jerks," Dinah clenched her fists. "That's already been established, DJ,"

"Yeah, so can you guys go down to the police station? Just help them in the investigation and get back to me as soon as you have some clues."

"Yup, don't worry, we'll find her, Lo," the girls said reassuringly, giving the girl a hug before they left just as quickly as they came in.

The girls went down to the station and were escorted to talk to the Chief who was on the case. To their surprise and confusion, he acted rather nonchalant, almost as if he didn't care. "I understand your concern, ladies, but we don't have lead yet," The Officer, C. Brown as it was printed on his uniform, spoke in a deep, sluggish voice.

"But we know who took her! It's Maria Jauregui and Brian Gomez," Normani insisted, smacking her hand repeatedly on the Chief's desk. "Alright, I'll put that on file and call you when I have more information. Now, shoo," he ushered them out with a huff.

"How rude," Dinah huffed, folding her arms over her chest.

"Well, if he doesn't want to help us find her, then we will do it ourselves!" Ally commanded.

"We don't even know where to start," Normani reasoned "They could be halfway around the world, for all we know!"

"Why don't we go straight to the crime scene and just start there?" Dinah suggested.

Arriving at Maria's house, the girls saw a cop car and the front door wide open. They crept inside, seeing a young officer, who looked to be about their age, holding Camila's blankie. As they got closer, they could see he had faint features of Brian and Maria.

"Hey, this is official police business. You three shouldn't be in here," the officer spoke with a tone of authorization in his voice. "We're here to help. We know the girl that was taken and we know who took her but no one seems to give a damn about the situation!" Dinah announced.
