Y/n POV:
We walk to the station and they walk us back to the room immediately.

OD: Okay Y/n, tell me about what happened after you were taken
Y/n: Well......

Flashback......
I hear laughing in the front of the van. I can't really tell what's going on all I know is that my head is pounding. Anthony must've hit the top of my head before he drove off, but how is Jackson back already? I shake it off and place a hand on my head and wince in pain. Well there's another frying pan. Why do they always go with that? The van stops sending me flying and I hit my head on the back of the seat.

Anthony: Trouble in paradise?
Y/n: Not paradise. Prison. A frying pan. Really?
Antony: Stay quiet bitch
Y/n: And if I don't?
Anthony: Alright have it your way

Next thing I know I see black. I hear laughing again and feel myself being carried to a far away room. Suddenly I feel a cold floor and realize that they just threw me in here. I hear the door lock and decide to just let myself fall unconscious again.

OD: So tell me again about the laughing
Y/n: Well I could hear laughing in the front of the van and I assumed Jackson came back with Anthony but considering now I guess that was Avani.
OD: Okay. You also mentioned a frying pan. Was that normal to you?
Y/n: Well when I was kidnapped 3 years ago they used a frying pan to knock me out so I'd stop trying to fight them. Jackson and Anthony knew about that and I guess used it against me.
OD: Where did the frying pan hit you when Anthony knocked you out.
Y/n: The very top of my head
OD: Take a look at that Clarke
Clarke: Got it
Y/n: Clarke? Where's officer Clyde?
OC: I'm right here sweetheart. Don't worry Clarke was your doctor when you were in the hospital
Y/n: Oh okay
Clarke: May I take a look?
Y/n: Of course go ahead
OD: Alright, now tell me why you think Anthony and Jackson would do this to you.
Y/n: I think they- ouch
Clarke: My apologies Miss Hartman, but it looks like more than a frying pan. Measuring it up against the bruise you have from the incident 3 years ago it is much smaller. Almost like
Payton: The sword
OD: I beg your pardon?
Payton: Jackson was obsessed with swords. He had a bruise on his arm from the handle of his sword that his grandfather gave him.
OD: Could you tell if Y/n's bruise looks similar?

Payton stands up and takes a small glance at the bruise.

Payton: That's it
OD: Alright I'll write that down and we need to be in search of this sword

Payton sits back down beside me and grabs my hand as Officer Davis continues the questions

OD: Alright now tell me about why they would want to do this
Y/n: Well Jackson says he's been in love with me for years so I guess that could be it. I have no idea why Anthony would though
OD: So an act of jealousy I see. Do you think Anthony might have wanted you and Jackson together?
Y/n: I don't think so. Anthony always wanted me and Payton together until that night
OD: What night?
Y/n: Well we were all at Payton's and decided to play truth or dare, well Josh sent me and Payton to play 7 minutes
OD: An interesting game that is
Y/n: It is. Well when the 7 minutes was up we wanted to mess with everyone and make them believe that we were mad at each other, but we wouldn't tell anyone why. Well Anthony got mad so I guess he decided to join Jackson.
Clarke: Good heavens
OD: I know it seems crazy
Clarke: No not that. There are multiple of these little bruised all over your head. I don't see how we didn't notice them before. I guess we assumed the frying pan, saw the bruise from a few years ago and didn't think any further
OD: Do you think?
Clarke: You had to have been hit more than just once with that sword
OD: Can you remember anything else?
Y/n: Well I think Anthony threw me into the van causing me to hit my head and then he hit me with the sword, but when they would come into the room where they were keeping me they would give me food and water and then when I'd get finished they'd hit me again knocking me back out
Clarke: How many times did they bring you food and water a day?
Y/n: Once a day at lunch time I believe
Clarke: Once a day for 6 weeks that's around.....
OC: Around 42 bruises, or they could've hit the same spot 3 times making it 14 bruises. That seem more accurate Clarke?
Clarke: Two four six......Yep exactly 14
OD: That explains why your memory is fuzzy. You can go home we have all we need. We'll call you if we need more answers
Zach: Thank you Officer Davis
OD: It's no problem you guys. Stay safe
OC: Make sure you keep an eye on this one *winks*
Y/n: I won't say I can take care of myself because I know what happened last time
Josh: No kidding
Griffin: Josh do not start again
Josh: I'm not
Clarke: Keep an eye on her bruises and tell us if anything happens
Payton: We will
OD: Alright. We're here if you need us

We walk out and head back to Payton's. We received a call from the station.

Phone: Officer Davis
OD: We don't need you to freak out but we have a problem
Josh: What's going on?
OD: We just went down and Jackson is no where to be found
Y/n: WHAT
Payton: Calm down babygirl I've got you
Josh: What do you mean he's no where to be found?
OD: There's a huge break in the wall. Almost like an explosion. Anthony and Avani are still here though. Stay calm, we're looking for them as we speak. Stay safe you guys
Josh: Thank you for telling us
OD: It's my job isn't it? Talk later

Josh ends the call and Payton holds me close. I can't help but fear that Jackson will come back.
