Chapter 1
Jamie and Lucas sat on Jamie's couch.
"I mean it would just be ridiculous to have another baby at this point," Lucas said.
"Cool," Jamie said. "I have to go pick Amber up from daycare."
"I mean Peyton is being just ridiculous," Lucas said.
"I have to pick Amber up from daycare," Jamie said.
"I mean, what do you think Jamie?" Lucas asked.
"I think you should leave so I can go pick up Amber from daycare," Jamie replied.
"But Jamie," Lucas said.
"Uncle Lucas!" Jamie shouted. "You are acting like a child! You have to go home so I can lock the door and set the alarm so I can pick Amber up from daycare!"
"You don't have to be so rude," Lucas said.
"Act your age please," Jamie said standing up. "Also, Aunt Peyton is pregnant you idiot!"
"What?" Lucas asked standing up.
"She wouldn't be obsessing over having another baby if she wasn't," Jamie said. "Plus I found a pregnancy test in your bathroom."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Lucas asked.
"Not my news to tell," Jamie said. "So please don't tell her I told you."
"Huh," Lucas said sitting back down on the couch.
"Can you please go home?" Jamie said. "I've got to… Oh never mind. Lock the door and set the alarm when you leave."
After Jamie left, Lucas got out his phone and texted Peyton.
Meanwhile in the abandoned building, Peyton sat on a couch crying in fear while Ian Banks pointed a gun at her.
"I didn't want to resort to this Peyton, but you gave me no choice!" Ian shouted.
"Please don't do this!" Peyton pleaded.
"Stop crying bitch!" Ian shouted as he pointed the gun at a vase and shot it.
Peyton screamed.
"That's you if you attempt to run!" Ian shouted.
"How are you alive?" Peyton sobbed. "I saw your dead body!"
"They say everyone has a twin," Ian replied. "After you had escaped from me, I escaped to New York. That's where I found this man, Tommy Hammond."
"So you killed an innocent man and took his identity?" Peyton sobbed.
"I sure did," Ian said. "I've been watching you for a year waiting for the perfect time to kill you."
"But if you love me so much, why do you want to kill me?" Peyton sobbed.
"You've rejected me too many times Peyton!" Ian shouted.
Peyton's phone buzzed.
"What was that?" Ian asked.
"Nothing," Peyton lied.
Ian walked over and slapped Peyton across the face.
"Give me your phone!" Ian shouted.
Peyton reached into her pocket, took out her phone, and handed it to Ian. Ian took the phone and threw it against the wall.
"Get up!" Ian shouted.
Peyton got up and Ian punched her in the face.
"Walk toward the back door," Ian said.
Peyton walked toward the back door while Ian followed her with his gun.
"Keep walking Peyton," Ian said as they approached the back door.
Peyton and Ian walked out the back door into an alley where an old junky looking car was parked.
"Get in the driver's seat," Ian said. "And if you try to lock me out, I will shoot you here and now!"
Peyton got into the driver seat of the car and buckled in. Ian got in the front passenger's seat and handed Peyton the car keys.
"Drive," Ian said.
"Where?" Peyton asked.
"Just do what I say and no questions!" Ian shouted.
Peyton took the keys, started the car, and began to drive.
"Let's go see our friend Brooke Davis shall we?" Ian said menacingly.
