I opened my eyes to blinding light.

"UGHH! Turn it off, turn it off!"I complained.

"Sorry, princess."I heard someone say and then the lights were off. I looked towards the doorway and Derek stood with a smirk planted on his face. He walked over to me, then I realized I wasn't chained up and I was lying on the floor in an unfamiliar room. I jumped up and went into position. He raised an eyebrow and began walking closer.

When he was at least two feet away, I kicked him in the stomach and punched him in the face. He tried punching me in the jaw and I dodged. I punched his side. When he was bent over, I used it as an advantage and kicked his butt so he would fly forward. He stumbled on his feet for a moment until he regained balance again and he kicked my stomach, I backed up a little so it just skimmed my shirt that was lying flat on my stomach from sweat.

I stepped on his shoe and he tripped and fell onto the floor. He got up so fast that I didnt have any time to throw a kick. I pushed his pressure point as he fell a little bit under my touch. He tried escaping from my grasp and ended up running into the wall.  I pinned him, my hands were gripping his wrists above his head, but I was also careful to note his feet, so he doesn’t kick me.

"What? How? I-"I cut him off.

"Three years, Derek. I'm sure that you had Joey tell you what happened in those three years, so why are you so surprised?" I asked.

"I just didn’t think that those idiots trained you that well." He said. I growled and pushed him further into the wall. He winced at the impact on his wrists.

"They were not idiots, Derek. They were my family, my only family. I loved them and still do. Maybe you're the idiot." I spat. I was just about to punch him in his perfectly shaved jaw when a hand caught my fist. I looked back and that guy was there. That guy that I didn’t know the name of.

He pulled me off of Derek, while I fought back and tried to rip out Derek's eyes, but he just stood by the wall with a bewildered expression.

"Thanks, Sam." He said. I looked back at 'Sam' and he nodded while still holing on to my arms. He put them behind my back, and I tried to kick him but he dodged and locked my legs up with his so there was no way to even move my led. This guy was good, maybe even too good. I would need to watch out for him.

"Let me go!"I said. Sam chuckled.

"No can do, hunny. You're gonna try to rip my old pal, Derek's face." he said. I groaned.

"He deserves it!" I yelled. He shook his head.

"Come on, babe. We used to date! You love me deep down."Said Derek. I laughed a humorless laugh. He must have noticed because his smile dropped. He made a motion with his hand indicating for Sam to follow him somewhere. We walked down halls and rooms. We finally got outside and we got in the car. Of course, I put up a fight, but what did you expect? Eventually, they got me in the car and the driver started the car. I looked at Sam. I was sitting on his lap and my feet were on Derek's lap.

"Sam."I whispered his name, he looked at me. "Are you kidnapping me?" I whispered again. He smiled.

"Yeahhh." he said stretching the word. I sighed.

"Can I get off your lap?" I asked with hope. He shook his head. Sam's phone went ringing Gangnam Style and he looked at it.

"Are you going to answer it? " I asked.

"No, It's my ex. I swear she's crazy." He said, laughing along with Derek.

We sat in the car for a few moments later until we hear police sirens following us. Derek looked panicked and leaned in close to me.
