-Jesy's POV-
I crouch in the corner of the closet, holding my breath nervously. I watch as Tyler opens the closet door where I'm hiding, tensing up every muscle in my body.
"What are you doing in here?!?" He scolds, yanking me out by my hair.
"Nothing!" I yell back at him, keeping the laptop behind my back.
"What's behind your back?" He questions, holding me by the throat.
"Why are there so many dead bodies in the freezer?" I choke out, dropping the laptop as his grip tightens.
"Why the hell do you have my laptop?!?" He yells again, dropping me.
Perrie tackles him from behind, pulling him away from me.
Jade and Leigh come out of their hiding spots as well, helping me up.
Tyler rams backwards into a wall, hurting Perrie more than it hurts him.
He manages to grab her, throwing her into the middle of the floor.
"Boys! Can you help me down here!" He calls up the stairs, and three other men come down.
They grab Leigh, Jade, and Perrie, and they put up a fight, but sadly we don't stand a chance against them. Then Tyler grabs me and slings me over his shoulder.
"Let go of me!" I struggle around as he carries me upstairs behind the others.
He doesn't answer, just laughs at me.
The main lounge is now dark, only a few lights on.
I'm set in a chair and tied down by my wrists and ankles, along with the other girls.
"What are you doing?" I ask, shaking myself awake a bit more.
"They were working for Hunter!" Jade bursts, struggling around in the ropes.
"Ding ding ding! We have a winner!" Tyler laughs, and my eyes widen.
"Who are you other three?" Leigh asks curiously, referring to the other three men standing in the dark, hiding their faces.
"Oh, you guys remember Mitchel and Jarod right? Then that's James, he's the new guy." Tyler explains, and I'm in shock.
They step out if the shaded area, and I'm speechless.
"Hello girls, and nice to see you again Jade. Did you enjoy our little talk?" Jarod asks, stepping in front of us.
"Not really." She answers uncomfortably, her voice suddenly quiet.
"Aren't you supposed to be dead?" Leigh asks, and she has a point.
"Missed you too..." Jarod rolls his eyes, then chuckles. "And as I told Jade, they never found the body." He explains, and the realization hits me.
"I'm sorry guys, but I have to go deal with the girl. I'll meet up with you guys later." Mitchel smirks, tugging on his coat.
"Where is Destiny, you bastard?!?" I yell, trying to pull my hands out of the ropes.
"Oh, she's safe with me. Don't worry, tonight she won't be here anymore." Mitchel laughs, exiting the building.
"What does he mean?!?" Perrie demands, and so many thoughts run through my head.
"She may have cheated death once, but this time we're finishing the job." Tyler explains, and I start getting very uncomfortable.
A silence falls among the room, and I try to slide my hands out of the loosened ropes.
"Shall we take them to their final destination?" Jarod asks Tyler, a sickening smirk on his face.
Each of them grab two backs of the chairs, sliding them across the floor noisily.
I hear a set of doors open, and we come to an abrupt stop.
I look at far back behind me as I can, and see that we're in the kitchen. Jarod opens the freezer door, and starts moving us into the icy room.
"Please don't do this!" I plead, hoping he has some feelings somewhere inside of him.
They shut the door, leaving it dark.
I don't hear them lock the big metal door, so if I can get myself untied, we're free.
"We're going to die in here!" Perrie panics, and I can hear struggling.
"No, we're not." I reply, trying to squeeze my hand through the loop of the ropes.
"It's no use, Jesy." Jade stutters out, but I don't give up.
I pull as hard as I can, managing to make my hand slide out a bit.
"I'm getting us outta here." I add on, slipping my hand out and cutting it slightly on the rough ropes.
I reach up, searching for the string to turn on the light.
I feel the thin string between my fingers, yanking on it with my shaking hand.
With the light on, I can see the knots better.
I start fumbling with the ropes around my left wrist, loosening the knot enough to be able to get my hand out.
"I'm shit when it comes to knots." I admit, working on the ropes around my ankles.
"Jes..." Leigh stutters out, her jaw shaking. "B-behind you."
I whip my head to look at the shelf behind me, and I see a bloody knife.
I nearly gag, but reach to grab it anyway. I can just reach it, and I waste no time going to the ropes with it.
They come off like a charm, and I quickly move to the other girls.
Once we're all free, I ram into the door, and it swings open.
"We need to get out of here, now!" Jade panics, and I shush her.
"Be quiet, we don't want to get caught." I whisper, and move we towards the fire exit.
I grab some keys off the key hooks, nodding to Perrie.
"The door is alarmed, so we have to dash." Perrie warns, taking a deep breath.
Perrie puts her shaking hands on the door handle, preparing to run.
I close my eyes waiting, for the door to open. Once it does, I run for my life!
"Get to the garage!" I scream as I hear the fire alarm go off.
We run the short distance to the small garage, and I break the weak wooden door down.
The black van unlocks, and we get in quickly.
Right as I get in, I start the engine and presses the button to open the garage door.
"They're coming!" Leigh calls, and I lock the doors.
"Screw you door!" I yell, driving straight ahead and breaking the slow door to the garage.
We start driving down the gravel road, but Tyler and Jarod aren't far behind in another van.
I take a sudden turn into the field, dirt flying everywhere!
"Are you nuts?!?" Jade exclaims, falling out of her seat as the van bounces.
"Calm your tits down! We're doing it the Jesy Nelson way!" I reply, flooring the pedal.
A bird hits the windshield and I jump!
"Well, that little birdie isn't telling anyone anything..." I joke, as we finally reach the highway.
Everyone calms down a bit as we're on the actual road again, headed towards Harrow.
"She must be at Mitchel's house, we need to hurry." Leigh speaks up, buckling her seatbelt.
I look at the time, and it's already five in the afternoon.
We need to get to her, I don't want to lose her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrive in the back alley near Mitchel's place, the headlights off.
We went around the front, and his car isn't there so he must be out.
I leave the van idling as we get out, hoping our plan will work.
The plan is to get in, get Destiny, get out, and flee. We don't know where we're going to go yet, but we're going anywhere other than here.
We dash through the backyard, getting to the front door. Jade slowly turns the knob and opens it, and we tiptoe in.
I can clearly hear screams of pain and then laughter, coming from beneath us.
"Some one else is here?" Leigh asks, as we look for the door to the basement.
I shrug my shoulders, and I find the door.
I open it a little, wondering if we could sneak fast whoever's down there hurting Destiny.
We didn't have any shoes on in the first place, so we don't have to worry about making to much noise.
"Let's give it a go." I encourage, and I'm the first onto the stairs. Leigh, Perrie, then Jade follow my lead.
"Amber..." I whisper as I see the familiar red head whipping Destiny. "That little bitch."
As we reach the last steps, we run across the concrete floor on our toes, hiding behind the stone pillars. Luckily, there's four of them! Each are big enough to hide us, at least from Amber.
I look at the other girls, terrified and totally forgetting about the plan.
I look out from the corner of the cold pillar, just to see what's going on.
I see Destiny hanging by her wrists from ropes on the wall, bloody gashes, bruises, and burns all over her body. She looks lifeless, her small, nearly nude body shaking roughly.
"That's what you get for leaving me... Twice!" Amber scolds at her overly annoying voice, tossing the leather whip to the ground.
I'm downright furious with Mitchel and her right now! No one deserves this!
She turns a knob on some sort of machine, and then Destiny screams again. I realize the metal bracelets on her wrists, and I put two and two together.
It takes everything in my power not to go and kill Amber right then and there.
She turns the machine off, and removes the metal bracelets.
"Wanna make these beautiful cuts a bit deeper?" She asks, picking up a knife.
"No... Please stop..." Destiny breathes out, tears streaming down her face.
Amber ignores her begs, slashing her shoulders, then dropping the knife.
"I'll be back later." She threatens, making her way up the stairs and closing the door.
Me and the girls come out of our hiding spots, going unnoticed by Destiny.
I go to lift her chin, and she flinches hard.
"Please, no more..." She pleads breathlessly, and I nearly cry, seeing how traumatized she is right now.
"Dest, it's us. Jesy, Jade, Leigh-Anne, and Perrie." I explain quietly, lifting her head up.
She opens her eyes tiredly, and her eyes widen.
"No... No! You guys have to go!" She whispers anxiously, looking around as if watching for Amber and Mitchel.
"Destiny, snap out of it. We're here to rescue you." I try to get her head straight, but it fails.
Leigh grabs the pocket knife off the floor, cutting the ropes of Destiny's wrists and ankles, considering the knots are too tight to undo.
"No! You guys have to leave now!" Destiny starts screaming, and I quickly slap a hand over her mouth.
She struggles around, kind of like the first time we had to do this to her.
We didn't come prepared for this problem, which puts us at a slight disadvantage.
Jade takes off her sweater, attempting to wrap it around Destiny.
I'm taken by surprise when her fist collide with my face, freeing herself from my grasp as I hold my nose.
"Get away! You guys are going to hurt me!" She screams, and I hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Shit.
"How did you guys get here?!?" Ambers voice calls out, and I immediately turn to punch her in the head. I hit her hard enough to knock her out cold, giving us some time.
"She's in some sort of daze, they must've brainwashed her somehow." Leigh explains, and I look around at all the equipment down here.
I see so many terrifying things, even scaring me! I think Destiny's just in a traumatic daze.
"You need to come with us, we're going to help you." I try to explain, but it's bloody useless!
"Jesy... You might have to..." Jade whispers, and I know what she's talking about.
I just nod, walking over to Destiny, who is trembling in the corner.
I hate doing this, especially with loved ones, but there's no other way.
I forcefully push Destiny up against the wall, covering her mouth.
I know that it's dangerous, and that's why I don't do it often.
I press on her neck hard, finding her pressure point. Destiny struggles roughly, her face scrunching up in pain. She falls down, and I quickly catch her. I pick her up as if she's a child that has fallen asleep, carefully making my way to the stairs.
We quickly make our way upstairs and back outside, getting into the van.
I take Destiny to the backseat, staying back here with her, and Leigh driving.
We speed away, and I'm not sure where we're going.
"Pez, there should be a blanket under your seat. Could you grab it please? I need to cover Dest up." I ask, and Perrie looks to under her seat.
"Thanks." I say as she hands it back, covering Destiny in the surprisingly large blanket.
The van comes to a stop, and I look out the window.
"Why are we here?" Jade asks, and I immediately recognize our house. It seems like forever since we've been here!
"We can't just leave, Destiny is like half dead. Plus, they won't expect us to be here. You guys can go inside and I'm going to park the van down the street." Leigh explains, and Perrie opens the door for me.
I sigh, picking Destiny's lifeless body up, getting out, and running into the house.
I don't bother closing the door, knowing that the girls are coming in right away.
I push everything off the table, not caring if I break anything, I need to help Destiny now!
I gently lay her on the table, flicking on the light quickly.
She's bleeding in numerous places, and she's burned quite badly.
Jade and Perrie run for bandages and hydrogen peroxide, while I get a warm cloth.
I start gently cleaning up the dried blood and fresh wounds, and then Leigh bursts through the door.
Perrie and Jade come back, setting the supplies on the counter.
Destiny starts waking up, squirming around.
"What are you doing?" She asks, still half asleep. Suddenly she starts panicking, trying to get away.
"Hold her down, please." I tell the other girls, even though I hate doing this to her.
I wipe her face off with the warm cloth, hoping that'll calm her down.
"Dest, it's just Perrie, Jade, Leigh, and Jesy." Perrie tries to soothe her, and they let go of Destiny as she stops struggling.
"Where am I?" She asks as I finish cleaning the blood off her, and I reach for the peroxide.
"You're at the house, don't worry." Leigh replies, rubbing her arm gently.
I pour the peroxide in the wounds, all at once just to get it done with.
Destiny twists around in pain, clenching her fists tightly.
"I'm so sorry." I apologize, realizing how much pain she's in.
I put the bottle on the counter, grabbing the white roll of bandages that we just happen to have.
I wrap the cuts up, making sure the bandages aren't too tight.
"Pez, did you bring the Polysporin with you?" I ask, and she nods, handing me the small tube of the medicine.
I gently rub it on the burns, making Destiny flinch. Then I bandage them too.
I wet the cloth with warm water, dabbing the whip marks.
"I'll go get her some PJ's." Leigh offers, running upstairs.
"Thank you." She says weakly, her hand shaking as she reaches out for me.
I realize she probably hasn't had any sugar since Mitchel took her, which doesn't help the already existing problems she has with her blood sugar.
"Jade, can you get some sort of sugar? I'm going to get her onto the couch." I ask, picking Destiny up carefully.
Perrie follows me into the living room, and I lay Destiny on the couch with her head in my lap.
Leigh comes back down with a onsie, and Jade with a cup of cola and some Tylenol.
Destiny slips into the onsie slowly, taking the Tylenol after.
"So, why were you at Mitchel's place in the first place?" I ask, stroking her blonde hair.
Her eyes widen, and then she sighs.
"I was protecting you guys..." She starts, looking at the floor. "I've been seeing him for about a month and half now, so he wouldn't hurt you guys."
