After I saw the shadows everything happened so fast there were several howls and a scream I recognized as Lacey's.

I started running towards where the scream came from but someone or something grabbed me, I started struggling but then I felt something go into my skin and it must be a tranquilizer because everything was fading.

My legs gave out and I was staring at black men's shoes. That was the last thing I saw before I passed out.

I wake up and I am in a cell and I can barely see anything because of the light. I hear sobbing from the corner of the cell.

I squint and what I see horrifies me. Laying there is Lacey covered in dried blood but it wasn't her blood.

"Lacey" I call my voice cracking

"momma" she yells slightly startled

"What happened"

"They made me kill another girl my age" she says starting to cry again

I pull her into my lap "it's a good thing they didn't hurt you"

"They almost did but a lady stopped them" she said

I started to say something but the cell door opened and somebody grabbed me and started dragging me out.

Lacey started running after me but a man threw her back in the cell while she was screaming "momma help, momma" then she curled up in the corner of the cell and started crying.

"Get up" the man pulling me roughly yanked me up

He pushed me into what seemed like an interrogation room and told me to sit down.

I sat then a tall man wearing all black walked in and I couldn't believe who it was.........

Who do you think it was???

Here's a hint: it's someone from earlier in the book
