To murder or to escape (2) DRAFT

Chapter 18

Jaz's POV

I woke up feeling dazed and confused. I sit up and take in my surroundings. I'm not in a truck. I'm in a crate. Again. I'm in those a lot I must say.

I look beside me and see Amy, Maddy and dr jones lying on the ground unconscious.

Feeling it's best not to yell or scream, I shake Maddy awake. She sits up tiredly.

"Where are we?" She asks still half asleep.

"In a crate on a plane." I say.

"A crate? Again?" She asks annoyed. I shake my head. Maddy shakes Amy and dr jones awake.

"Should we scream and hope someone can hear us?" Maddy suggests. Dr jones shook her head.

"No. That could make things a lot worse. We should just stay here and lie low." She explains. Amy nods in agreement.

"What time and day is it?" I ask Amy. She pulls out her phone that she magically somehow still has.

"It's been ten hours since we fell asleep." She says. I nod.

Maddy's POV

It's been a while since we all woke up. We haven't got much to do or talk about, so we played twenty questions for a while.

We actually learnt heaps about each other. Mostly random things, but things all the same.

Suddenly the planer starts heading downwards. We're about to land in Melbourne.

Dr jones' POV

We are lifted off the plane and are left somewhere for a few minutes.
We are now being lifted up again and either into or onto something. Probably another truck. We can't hear anything outside except for the sound of the crate being lifted and dropped.

We hear an engine roar and feel ourselves moving.
When we're going at a pretty good speed, we decide it's safe to talk.

"I think we're on a truck." Maddy says stupidly. I shake my head.

"What gave you that clue?" Jaz asked sarcastically. Maddy shrugs smiling.

After a while the truck starts slowing down but still drives forwards.

"What do you thinks happening?" I say to no one in particular.

"We've probably arrived at Gary's current location. He'd be here to welcome us." She says.

As if on cue, we hear a door open. The side of the crate is yanked down and light pours inside. We see people that we haven't seen before.
We are grabbed and yanked out. Looking around, we're in a factory. Gary and Vira stand there waiting. Vira is smiling and Gary has his arms crossed and looks disappointed.

"Looks like you lied sis. Don't you remember what happened last time?" He says. She puts a hand to her mouth, remembering.

"This time, you will never speak, ever again. Chain those three to pipes or something. I don't care, I'll speak to them later. Vira grab my sister and follow me." He says. We are grabbed from behind and dragged off, while Amy is dragged off into another room screaming. We can't even do a thing.

Amy's POV

I am tied to a chair with tears streaming down my face. Gary looks at me disappointedly.

"Sorry sis, but I warned you." He says and holds up the knife.

"No Gary please! Please! PLEASE DON'T!" I scream crying harder.

"Sis, I really am sorry, but it has to be done." He says and holds the knife to my throat. My eyes widen and I start to tremble.
I scream as the knife enters my throat...

Hey I have a question. What do you guys think of the new cover? Also, are you still enjoying the book? Btw, I need a cover for the third and final book to murder or to be murdered so if anyone has one, let me know. Preferably if I know you.
