Summary: Everyone trapped in a run down house with no way out. They are put to the test of survival. Will they turn on each or work together and get past all the pain and anger. Who will live and who will never see the outside again?
The room was stale the floor cold nothing covering cement floor. His head hurt like waking up from a hangover. But he knew he hadn't drank anything that strong in awhile. His body ached in all the wrong places and he could hear the small groans of others. Jason slowly rolled over onto his side. He looked up seeing several other people lying on the ground slowly stirring themselves obviously feeling the same way he was. The room was dim, making it hard to see what was around him. Once his eyes started adjusting he started looking around trying to figure out just what had happen. The one thing he knew was he was not sitting in his penthouse anymore. As he looked around he noticed that several people he cared about was in the room. Carly, Sonny and Elizabeth, were all there. He also noticed that Lucky and a few other people he didn't recognize was in the room as well. Jason slowly started getting up. "Is everyone okay?" Jason said as he got to his feet.
He leaned against the wall with a hand to steady him when he heard a response. "Jase is that you?" asked Carly holding on to her head. Sitting against the wall, her head splitting in pain like nothing she had ever felt before.
Jason stood without the walls help and stood there a few minutes to make sure he wouldn't fall over. 'Ya Carly it's me. You ok?" he asked making his way to her first to make sure she was okay. "I think so. Where are we?" she asked. Looking around the room, her eyes landing on Elizabeth and she frowned. Just what she wanted was to be trapped anywhere with her.
She let Jason's arms left her up onto her feet. "I am not sure. Sonny you ok?" Asked Jason as he made sure Carly was standing fine without him before making his way to Elizabeth who still hasn't woken up yet.
Sonny rubbed his head and face as he stood. "Ya I am fine. Do any of you know how we got here?" asked Sonny. Carly moving over towards him. "Well seeing how we are all here I can make a few guess on who would want us all trapped together" Carly said rubbing her head, waiting for the pain to finally subside.
Jason moved Elizabeth where she was leaning against the wall. He looked her over and sighed in relief that nothing seemed to be wrong with her other than the headache they all suffered from at this moment. "Carly who do you think would possible want us all here? Especially this selection of people?" Elizabeth asked.
Carly rolled her eyes. She was already irritated with Elizabeth and she just opened her mouth. "How about the person who would like revenges on us all Elizabeth. Who do we all have in common that's not here?" Carly said, already having someone in mind. As if it was a clear answer.
"Well let's see what do you and I have in common with Jason, Elizabeth and Lucky?" asked Sonny. Clearly not picking up on the fact that Carly had someone in mind as he looked around the room seeing if there was a way out.
For the first time since everyone had woken up he finally spoke. "Sam" Lucky said stating the obvious. Carly sighed happy someone picked up on her suspicions. "And she is the only one not here" Carly said to them all.
Jason didn't want to believe that this could be Sam. The last he knew she was in Manhattan with her show. "But I…." Jason was cut off by a blood-curdling scream. Jason looked at the others as he placed the scream. Without hesitation he took off heading towards where the screams were coming from, everyone else was hot on his trail. Wanting to know who exactly was the other person in the house.
The room was pitch black. She couldn't see anything. All she could hear was the rapid pounding of her heart as it raced in panic. All she knew was her feet were tied together and her hands were handcuffed. She couldn't see the handcuffs but she had been arrested enough times to know what that metal felt like against her wrist. She was could also tell she was on a bed and her hands were linked to a corner of an old rod that was as the headboard of the bed. She couldn't move much without sending pain through out her body. She tried remembering what had happened to her but the memories of the night before were foggy. She felt something dripping down her arms , she could make guesses to what it was even though she couldn't see it. That's when she started to scream. "PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME." She started to scream hoping someone would hear her.
Sam tried listening to see if anyone was coming but she couldn't hear anything, the pounding in her heart picked up faster pace as the pounding in her head ripped through her. Making it hard to concentrate on anything but the pain. All of a sudden a door burst open. Her eyes blinded by the lights coming from the hall. They weren't bright but still harsh from her being in the darkness. She turned her head to shield it from the light when she saw the blood dripping from her wrist where the handcuffs were cutting into her wrists. Then she knew she was right, it still didn't relieve her to know what the dripping was. She turned her head back to look at the person who could either be there to help her or her capture, yet of which it was she didn't know. Sam could hear the feet at a run and knew more people were coming.
Jason stood there in shock at the shell of the woman that was before him. She was skinner than she was before and seemed tinnier than the last time he had seen her, if that was even possible. Her hair was the same dark raven color it always was. He saw the blood running down her arms. Sam finally locked eyes with Jason and they widen with knowledge of who he was. Jason noticed that her eyes no longer held light in them, but they were dark and soulless.
Sam couldn't believe this as she shook her head black tears rolling out of her eyes as she rested her head against the rail the only place she could put her head. Of all the people it was him that stood there before her, and it killed her to see him more than it was to be handcuffed to this bed. This had been the first time in over a year he had seen her, he knew when she left town for he watched her put the last bag into her car and take off. He had heard stories in the paper about her in Manhattan but he knew never to believe them. He didn't want to believe them.
He was brought out of his thoughts when Carly, Elizabeth, Sonny and Lucky all came in. Carly just rolled her eyes. "Of course she would be here to" she rudely stated. Sam wanted to die at the sound of Carly's voice. This was defiantly something she didn't want to endure. She could only imagine what they were thinking about her as they all gawked at her as if she was some sideshow they had paid to see.
Elizabeth was shocked to see the woman before her. Yes she distasted Sam, but she had always thought Sam as this strong independent woman. But the woman that was handcuff to the bed was fragile and nothing like the Sam that had left town. Lucky stood there and looked at the people, wondering why no one was moving or doing anything to help her. He was so mad with Sam, but he never wanted her to leave. He had gone to talk to her just to find out she left town because she couldn't handle what they had dished out at her, everyone in that room had something to do with the way Sam had blown up at them and then left town at the dead of night. He cared about her so much and still does.
Since no one else was doing anything he stepped up, his heart finally getting the best of him. "Sam are you ok?" he asked walking towards the woman he no longer knew. Sam knew who that voice belonged to but didn't say anything back. She just shut her eyes tight as willed away the tears the wanted to roll down her cheeks.
Sam's headache was intensified at the sound of Carly's voice that broke threw the silence. "Why are we just standing here? Lets leave her and find away out" Carly stated clearly annoyed with them. "Carly we can't just leave Sam here" said Elizabeth. Sam hadn't known that Elizabeth was there and her stomach had rolled over multiple times at the sound of the banshee. Sam honestly thought she was going to be sick.
Carly scuffed at Elizabeth. "Why not? we all hate her, she is just waste of time and breath we all be better off she just di…." Carly was cut off by Jason. "Carly just shut it ok. We are not going to just let her stay here," Jason said, for the first time since he found her. Part of him wanted nothing but to walk away but there was still a large chunk of him that didn't want to see Sam like this.
He finally moved from his spot and started looking around the room looking for something to get Sam out of the cuffs with. That's when he saw something glisten off the wall and walked towards it. Sonny who had been quite through out it all looked at his friend knowing he found something. "What did you find Jason?" asked Sonny walking towards him, his eyes shot to Sam quickly before back to Jason.
Jason sighed. "I don't know. But it looks like a tape recorder and there is a key taped to the back of it" Jason said. Looking over it carefully and wondered if it was the key that went to the cuffs. "Well play it" Said Lucky without a second thought of what was about to be revealed to them.
Jason clicks the play and soon the room went silent as they listen to the tape.
"My, my sweetness haven't you been a naughty girl" the voice sending chills down Sam's spine knowing who belonged to that voice. "I mean there so much you have done that the people in the room just don't know about Sam. Especially since you have been in Manhattan this past year. I bet they have heard stories and rumors about you but do you think they actually believed them?" Everyone turned to Sam as tears streamed down her face faster as she hit her head softly against the rail before shaking her head. There was some things that she didn't want anyone in that room to know, there was so much that had happen in this year that she just wanted to forget.
Everyone wonder what the voice was talking about as they stared at her. "How would you think they'd take it knowing you are just what the papers said? All those parties. The drugs and alcohol. I mean sweetness you really should stop doing such harmful things to your body. I know you had a tough time dealing with things since I have been gone but where is that fighter I knew so well. The woman who shot me. But there is more isn't there sweetness stuff you tried covering up so no one in this room would find out isn't there?" The voice laughed making Sam want to throw up right where she was.
Jason and Lucky were both shocked to hear that Sam turned to drugs and alcohol this past year. Jason now knew the papers were right and that's why Sam was so thin and he just couldn't believe what he was hearing. The tape continued. "But Sweetness. I was most shocked with the way you handled baby Jake. Isn't he so cute? I always knew Jason wasn't good enough for you sweetness. But everyone in that room hates you for what you did. Watching baby Jake be kidnapped and hiring the thugs to attack Elizabeth in the park. I give you props of course but have you turned them against you so bad that they won't save you? I just can't wait till they find out the rest. Listen up carefully all. You are all trapped with no way out. So you guys will be tested, and it's a test of survival. Some of you I know will not make it out of this. Even though I will be clearly delighted if none of you make it out of this alive. And Sweetness you are up first. Your life lies in the hands of these people in the room more importantly either Lucky or Jason. Will they turn their backs on you and leave you here to die or will they save you once again? The choice is there better make it quick. Sam doesn't have much time. I bet those handcuffs are getting tighter by the second." The voice laughed again before the tape cut off.
Sam screamed out in pain as the cuff squeezed her wrist tighter. Lucky was the first to turn to Sam. "Is he right Sam did you turn to drugs?" He really didn't want the answers he knew would come with that question. Yet no one moved to help her as the cuffs grew tighter. Sam said nothing as she tried not to scream out in pain. Elizabeth looked at Sam. She was a broken woman and she could see that. "Who was that on the tape?" asked Elizabeth.
No one said anything just looked from one another obviously no one recognized the voice well enough to know who it belonged to. "I am not sure. But his voice is familiar" said Jason. Sam gritted her teeth. "It was Manny" Sam said softly and shaky for the first time since they walked into that room. "Manny Ruiz?" Asked Carly. Her eyes growing wide.
Sam swallowed the dry lump in her throat. Tears rewetting her cheeks. "Yes. I would know his voice anywhere. He haunted my dreams for so long. I thought he was dead." Sam said wincing in pain as more blood flowed down her arm because of the handcuffs were getting even tighter as she could now hear the click each knot it went down to.
She's right" Sonny said knowing Sam was right. "Now the question is do you guys let her die like this or let her free?" Sonny said looking at the two men. He knew what they would decided, "We can't just leave her here" both men said at once. Carly just rolled her eyes.
Jason took the key and walked over to Sam as Lucky untied her feet. Jason tried finding the hole for the key but there was so much blood. He kept running his thumbs over it to find the lock. He finally found it and put the key in. Sam cried out in pain. "Sorry" Jason said as more blood started to drip down her arms and onto her legs. Finally one hand was free and than the other. Jason took her hands and noticed her flesh was cut all around her wrist bleeding fast since the handcuffs were now off letting the blood flow freely.
Jason looked around and then he pulled the sheet on the bed apart, it easily ripping since it was old and then he started to wrap Sam's wrist. "OW" she says as he finishes. The tears slowly stopping as the numbness started washing over her wrist. "There it should stop the bleeding" Jason said. Sam looked up to his face that was close, she could see his blue orbs staring back at hers. He saw a glimpse of the woman he once knew but it slowly started to fade when she realized he was trying to read her.
Lucky held his hand out for Sam to grab to help her out of the bed. She just looked at him and slowly started to make her way off the bed. Her strong to hell with you all attitude coming back. She placed her feet on the ground and slowly stood almost losing her balance as Lucky caught her before Jason could. Carly rolled her eyes as both Jason and Lucky in their ways fought over Sam. Sam found her balance and stood on her own. "Thank you" She said to both Jason and Lucky. Both nodding their head. Sam started to head for the door.
"Where are you going Sam?" asked Lucky. Sam stopped and looked back at him. "Probably to go meet up with Manny the man she working with" Carly said in a snide remark. Sam just rolls her eyes and walks out of the room. Lucky chased after her. "Sam where are you going?" he asked her again once he catching up to her. Sam stops and looks at him. "Why does it matter?" she asked in a harsh tone.
Lucky was taken back by her tone. "Because Sam you could be in danger just wondering around this house alone. We don't know what exactly going on around here. I don't want to see you hurt," he said sincerely. Sam bit her bottom lip. "I am going to go look for a bathroom or something to wash this blood off my arm" she said calmly. Her anger subsiding a little. "Fine than I am coming with you," he said declared. Sam rolled her eyes before turning on her heels and walking down the hall with Lucky right behind her.
"Do you think Sam could be lying?" Sonny asked. As he watched as Jason looked over the room Sam was just in. "I don't think so Sonny but I just don't know. I mean if what Manny said was true about the drugs something I thought Sam would never touch is true than I don't know. She is someone completely different that when we were together" Jason said looking at the bed with her blood on it. Sonny nodded at Jason's reply.
"Then what are we going to do? She is just running around here what if she is working with Manny?" Sonny asked. He hated to think badly of the mother of his dead daughter but Sam had done so many things to make him think such things. "I doubt she working with Manny Sonny. Come on he tried to kill her, he kidnapped her and tried raping her. I doubt she work with him. I don't what to do about Sam. I guess we just have to keep an eye on her that's the best we can do in here" Jason commented.
Carly just walked back in to the room. "So what the game plan?" she asked hoping they would let her kick Sam's ass or even Elizabeth's. "To find a way out of here" Jason stated not wanting many problems while in here between Sam and the rest of them. "Where is Elizabeth?" Jason asked finally noticing Elizabeth had disappeared. "How the hell am I suppose to know Jase. I don't keep track of your ex's." Carly said crossing her arms. "Well I am going to go find her. You to stay in the main room with the others." Jason said leaving them alone in the room while he went to go search of Elizabeth.
