I woke up earlier than I thought I would. I look outside and it's dark. How long did I sleep? I go to open my door but it's still locked. Huh that's weird.
I look out the window and I don't see Shane's blazer. He's gone. This is my time to escape. I grab a nearby chair and bust out the window. I break the rest of the window and climb out of the window. I look around and see a path and take off running. Omg I'm free. Thank god.
I see a road so I run really fast to the road. I stop to catch my breathe and I see a car coming this way. I run out in front of it and it stops. Shane gets out of the car and I turn to run but he's already on top of me. He slaps me repeatedly in the face.
" I left you for 10 fucking minutes and you try to escape?" He yells.
He yanks my hair and drags me in the car. He speeds off and soon we are at the house again. I guess I didn't get that far. He gets home but instead of my staying in the room he pushes me down the basement steps. " sleep tight bitch."
I curl up in a ball and begin crying. I was seconds from getting away but he had to come back. I'll never get out of here. Never.
Shane never brings me food down nor nothing to drink. Maybe this is my punishment. He's letting me starve. I sigh and lay on the floor begging someone to come for me.
I don't want to die. Especially here.
********
Lisas povThe cops pull in my driveway and I go out and see what's going on now. The cop gets out and I rush down the steps. " Hello, officer is everything okay?"
The officer sighs and shifts his hat. " Ma'am we might know where your daughter is but do you happen to know a Shane Woods?"
I shake my head. " No never heard of him."
" We found his residence yesterday and we found some of your daughters clothes. We didn't find her though but we did find multiple burned bodies in the backyard.
I gasp and tears begin falling. " Was it Madison?"
The officer shakes his head. " Can't identify them yet. We will need you to come to the station."
I nod and grab my bag from in the house. Oh please don't let it be Madison.

I've been missing for at least a month. Or it seems to be that long, I can only imagine getting out of here. I used to have hope that the next day I'd be saved but now I don't even have hope.
I haven't ate yet ever since last night. I'm a little hungry but Shane doesn't care he'd let me starve. I was offered a drink or anything now. Maybe he's tired of dealing with me so he's going to let me die.
Even though I have ate before I haven't gained weight. I just loose it all. I used to be thicker than what I am now. My parents probably won't hardly even recognize me. My parents. I miss them.
I miss everything about them. Their smile, their hugs, even their smell.
I wipe the blood off my hands with my shirt. It wasn't my blood it was Shane's my nails dug deep in his skin when he was dragging me in the car.
I grab an old sheet and lay it on the ground blocking some of the coolness of the floor. I hear a car pull into the driveway and think nothing of it. I suddenly hear gunshots. This is a normal occurrence.
