Am I too late? That's all I keep thinking as Scotty and I search for Christina. She's an addict. And he knew and didn't tell me. Why didn't he tell me? Not that it matters now, I guess. The important thing is that we find her. Find her before something happens.
Like her being dead, Lil?
Yeah, that.
And it isn't as if you'd care, right? I mean, you rejected her when she came to you before. She reached out to you for help and you threw it all right back in her face. Scotty was right.
Pretty pathetic that our deadbeat dad was there for her and you weren't. Because you don't care, do you?
Except I do. I really do. I just got tired of it all. The Rush family was certainly never short on drama. I just couldn't take it anymore. That's not hard to understand is it?
But I don't want her to die. God no, of course I don't want that. No matter what she's done she's still my baby sister and I love her. I didn't think I did but I guess I do. I mean, if the fear I'm feeling is any indication, I love her a whole hell of a lot more than I ever even knew.
So there, you have it. I love her and I don't want her to be dead because whatever she's done she doesn't deserve to die for it.

Oh, God, are we going to find her body in there? Please no. Anything but that. I can handle anything else but please, don't let my sister be dead. Not that, please. If she's dead I don't know what I'll do. I'll feel like I killed her.
Oh, yeah, Lil. Right. You didn't but you sure as hell helped whoever did. No, not whoever. That stupid fucker Cliff. If she's dead, he did it.
But she's not going to be dead. Playing the blame card isn't what matters because she's not going to be dead. We'll find her and get her out and that will be that. Yes, that will be that.
Then we'll deal with whatever comes next. Together.

You son of a bitch! I'll kill you. You hurt my sister! Die!

If Scotty hadn't of been there I would have killed him, I know it. That son of a bitch hurt my sister. Since she was saying how it hurt to breathe, I'm betting that he broke a few ribs. He got her stated on the pills too, I'm sure. Scotty stopped me from dolling out justice. I was seeing red, that's for sure.
And she's got a baby now. Unreal. Christina has a baby. I never would have guessed that in a million years. I've got a niece. It's just so…..
And now we're on our way home and I'm not sure what comes next. Chris is still alive and we got her out before anything worse happened. I'm glad we did and I'm so grateful to Scotty for helping me out. He didn't have to, I know, but he did.
So now I'll have to figure out what I'm going to do. I'll have to because Chris is going to need a lot of help. It might even be more than I can give her. No, no maybes about it. It's for sure going to be more than I can give her. I'm no drug counselor. I'm just a cop.
But I'll still do what I can because she's my sister and I love her and nobody, not even me would have ever believed how happy I am that she's still alive. Maybe this can be a new beginning for the both of us. I certainly hope so.
The End.
