*In , Missouri*

"Wait, he did what?!!??" Ashley asked, practically screaming at Maria in shock.

"Yes, it's true!" Maria said just as surprised. "The minute Ted found out you and Cody were officially dating, he went physco on him.

"Oh my god, Cody's okay right?"

"Well..." As Maria's voice faded into hiding, Ashley let out soft tears.

Maria took Ashley to Cody's hospital room. Ashley cried more when she saw the man she loved with a broken leg, all but one ribs bruised and stitches on his forehead.

"Holy shit." Ashley says under her breathe. "Ted is crazy. Just because me and Cody are dating he tries to murder him. Oh my god, what if he tries to hurt me?"

Just then, a man walks in. Out of sudden terror, Maria walks out. The man looks at Ashley up and down. Then just looks deep into her eyes.

"Who the hell are you and what do you want?"

"I'm Ted's brother, Bret." He answers smiling. "Now I'm a bigger fan of yours than you would expect. When I found out you were dating Cody, I wanted to mess up the guy."

"But, because you know you can't you got Ted to do your dirty work."

"No. Ted didn't know about any of this until Cody uncovered your relationship. And now that that monkey is out of the way, Bret Dibiase can do whatever he wants." Bret got closer to Ashley. He quickly shoved a needle with sleeping fluid into her stomach. After she immediately passed out, he carried her out of the hospital to his place.

*Back at Ted's hotel room *

Ted flipped on the news. He immediately found out that Ashley was mysteriously stolen.

"Oh crap…" Ted said under his breath. He grabbed his coat and ran out the door. He got in the rented car and drove to one person's house who he was 48% sure of who had Ashley. He went to Bret Dibiase's apartment.
