May 13th

It was two days later when I finally got to where Grace was being held captive.

Now I didn't know if this involved Diana so I was being extra careful.

It was early so it was still dark out. But by the smell there wasn't that many people had been here. There was only one house and I could smell Grace in the basement. I quietly went down there and what I saw was what nobody wanted to ever see happening to their friend.

Their was Asher holding a knife to Graces neck.

"Finally your here." He says with darkness in his bright blue eyes.

I look at Graces scared, tear stroked face. She was excepting me to do something. Attack Asher. But I couldn't. This wasn't Asher. This was what death made him. Asher was a son of two wolves who were involved in a gang rouge pack. His parents loved him but they didn't show it on the island. Asher is Ruby's older brother. Diana killed his parents along with Ruby. I thought she killed him, but he got away.

Now Asher was holding a knife to my best friend throat.

Asher wasn't dark. He was scared and I could see it behind his eyes.

"Asher..." I start to walk towards them.

"Take another step and I will slit her throat." He warns and I stop.

"Asher you don't need to do this." I say calmly.

"Yes. I do. You took my best friend away from me. Now I'll take yours."
He goes to cut.

"Ruby wouldn't want this for you." I say and he stops.

"How do you know what she want!" He yells.

"Because I saw her. Not that long ago. Back on the island." I say.

"You went back? How?" He asks.

"I can show you. But you have to let her go first." I say and he looks at my pleading blue eyes for a minute before I slowly realising the knife and letting her go.

She immidliy runs over to me.

"Go." I tell her and she runs up the stairs.

"You little-" He starts to step forward when I squeeze my hand and suck all the breathe out of him. "I'm sorry Asher." I throw him on the ground and break his neck before I let go. "I just couldn't risk it."

I go find Grace. "You okay?"

"No. Lets just get out of here." She says and we start to when suddenly we hear someone following us.

We stay absolutely silent and the man runs to attack us and that's when Grace runs and me and him fight.

"Your defentliy my daughter." He says as I knock heads.

"I don't have a dad." I say going to break his neck. But he throws me down instead.

"You defiantly fight like Melissa." I didn't care what he said I got right back up and a few seconds later he was laying on the ground dead.

He thought I was his daughter and he mention Melissa. I wasn't sure but I think I just killed Kayla father.

"Lets get out of here." I say catching up to grace.

A few hours later it was now light outside and we were sitting in the waiting area of the airport. We were waiting to get on a plane to Georgia.

"Why didn't you fight?" Grace asks.

"What?"

"He had a knife to my throat and you didn't fight. I want to know why." She says.

"If I fought there was a chance he would kill you. So I didn't fight." I say.
