Jack POV
I made a signal to Jerry to say that I had found Kimberly. She was sitting at a desk, with a book on her lap. Her head was resting on her shoulder and I realised she was asleep.
I quickly took down the vent and down into her room silently. Jerry followed. We surveyed her room seeing if there were any cameras. Surprisingly there wasn't. It looked like a normal teenage girls room, nothing like an evil man's child would.
"What now?" Jerry whispered to me.
"Get your chloroform out and put it on something. I'm going to wake her up" I whispered back.
I saw Jerry open his backpack up and take stuff out. I walked over silently to Kimberly. I looked at her for a minute. She was more beautiful than her photo. Her hair was tied back but a couple of loose strands hung down, framing her face. She was breathing heavily, giving a small sigh every few moments. And her slightly tan face was flawless. No spots or marks. The only mark on her face was the small scar on her cheek. I leaned in to look at it and realised it looked like the scar was made from a knife. I wondered who's knife it was that did this to her.
Whilst I was looking at her scar her eyes fluttered open. She went to scream but I put a hand over her mouth. She started trying to claw my hand away from her mouth. I grabbed her wrists and held them with one hand.
"If you don't scream I will take me hand away" I said slowly to her.
She nodded cautiously. I took my hand away from her mouth but still held her wrists.
"Who are you and what do you want?" she asked bravely. I could see clearly in her eyes that she was scared right now.
"I can't say but what we need is you" I said angrily. I should have felt sorry for her but right now I was still so mad at her Dad that I didn't feel anything except anger.
Jerry came up slowly behind her and put the rag over her mouth. She started trying to struggle and scream but as I had her wrists still, she couldn't do much. She slumped down in her chair after a minute, completely knocked out.
I picked her up in my arms and carried her bridal style. She felt very small and light in my arms.
"Come on, she will be awake in a few hours and it will be dark soon" Jerry said to me.
We speedily entered the vents again. As we were crawling whilst dragging Kimberly, we could hear yelling. As we passed a vent we could here exactly what they were yelling, Jerry kept dragging Kimberly whilst I pressed my ears up to the vent.
"Jackson has escaped sir" a boy's voice said.
"Do you know how?" Kevin asked. Jack could tell by the way his voice sounded he was calm but angry.
"No, sir" the boy said.
"Are my children safe?" Kevin asked.
The Boy took a big pause before he said anything.
"Ashton is out in practise" he said.
"And Kim?" Kevin asked.
"She's gone sir" the boy said quickly.
"WHAT? Kevin yelled and I realised that was the time to go. I speedily crept after Jerry and caught up with him just as he was getting to the exit vent. Jerry crawled out, took Kim in his arms, made sure I was behind him safe and started running. I ran after easily keeping up with him. I could hear yelling now from inside the house and almost felt sorry for the boy who had to tell Kevin Crawford his only daughter was missing.
"Jack what now?" Jerry yelled whilst still running.
"We must find a good place to hide" I yelled back.
"Like what?" he yelled to me.
"I don't know" I yelled pathetically. We kept running aimlessly until finally we saw a good place to hide. There was a large bush up against a large tree.
"Jerry, look at that bush. It's big enough to hide us under and it is against a tree so they won't trip over us" I yelled. He looked where I was pointing and smiled. We quickly ran over to the bush and ducked under it. It was almost like a semi-circle wall around us with the tree behind. The only way to see us now was by going round to the small area where the leaves were thin; which was the way we had come in. Jerry had laid Kimberly down on the ground and was now sitting down, leaning against the tree.
"What now" Jerry asked.
"Wait until dark then travel a bit more until we are a safe distance away and then we can set up a small camp" I said. Jerry checked his watch and I could see it read 6:08pm.
We sat for a couple of hours until his watch said 8.00pm and it was dark. I picked up Kimberly and Jerry and I started walking at a fast pace. We walked for an hour, until we found a small clearing surrounded by trees. I laid Kimberly down by a tree and started helping Jerry set up a small camp. He took a small box out of his bag and placed it on the ground. He pressed a button and a small tent popped up. Then I took some food out of his bag and laid it on the tent ground. Jerry picked Kimberly up and laid her in the tent.
"How long till she wakes up?" Jerry asked.
"Anytime soon" I replied.
We ate our food in silence. When we had finished I said to Jerry
"I'll take first watch".
Jerry nodded in agreement. He laid down and readied himself for sleep. I sat just in the entryway of the tent and looked outside. Besides the lantern inside our tent the moon was our only source of light. I got lost in thought thinking about everything. Home, the academy, and my family.
Kim POV
My head seriously hurts. Did I fall asleep reading again on my chair? I can't remember anything. I opened my eyes and took in my surroundings. A small tent? How did I get here the I remembered everything. The boy in my room, the rag over my face. I heard something move beside me and shut my eyes again. I gently turned over as if I was still asleep and quickly opened and shut my eyes, taking in the boy next to me. He wasn't the one I had seen in my room. He had black, hair and pale skin. I could also see he was asleep. I took my chances and sat up. The boy didn't move.
I peered around and realised it was night time. I looked at the other side of the tent and could see the other boy with his back to me. I quickly looked around for anything i could hit him with so i could run. I quickly saw a can of hairspray-wait hairsray? What kind of boy brings hairspray with him when kidnapping a girl? Anyway I grabbed the can of hairspray and slowly approached him. I mustered up all the force I could (which unfortunately wasn't much) and hit him round the head. He didnt quite drop to thw ground like expected but I still took off whilst he was in a daze. I heard him yelling to his friend but i couldnt hear what. I jut kept running. I could hear a voice up ahead. A veru familliar voice.
"Ash! Ashton its me Kim" I yelled with as much voice as I had. I could now hear footsteps running at me from behind but also at front. I could see my brother clearly now. I ran up to him and hugged him like I never wanted to let go. But unfortuneatly the brother-sister moment was short because I could hear the other guys voices.
"Kimberly, you are a bit of a pain, aren't you" the brown haired boy said.
"Kim who are they?" Ash asked me.
"I don't but they kidnapped me" I said.
"Well they should know they've messed with the wrong family" Ash said. He had a certain look on his face that I knew the exact meaning of. Let's fight.
We both got into our fighting positions, ready.
Ashton and I are both 2nd degree black belts. Our Dad had us taught when we were really young to protect ourselves. The other 2 boys got into the same position.
"What degree are you?" Ashton asked.
"3rd degree black belt" they both said. I gulped but Ashton didn't look intimidated. We all got ready to fight our opponents. I was against the brown haired boy.
"I don't want to have to hurt you Kimmy" he smirked.
"Don't call me Kimmy" I said quickly. My mothrr used to call me Kimmy. Before she died.
We all started fighting. The boy threw a kick which I easily dodged, and then I went to punch his face. He grabbed my wrist but I pulled back so suddenly that he came towards me. As he came towards me i kicked him in the stomach. He doubled over in pain. I smirked down at him but that thought "that was way to easy". I looked down to where the boy was and saw he was no longer there. I looked around for him and then heard someone say "boo" in my ear. I went around to punch him but he was expecting it this time and grabbed my wrist. He put my arm behind my back, in a painful manner. Then he grabbed my othe wrist and held them both together behind my back.
"Poor little Kimberly. Looks like you lost" he whispered in my ear. His voice sent involuntary shivers down my spine.
"Screw you" i said bitterly. We were now watching Ashton and the black haired boy fight. It looked like ash was winning untill finally the boy took a gun out and aimed it at Ash. I started struggling wildly against my captor screaming at him to let me go.
"Please don't hurt him. I promise I will go with you" i said in defeat.
"But babe hears the thing, you're coming with us, wether we hurt him or not" the boy behind me said. I visibly gulped. I hated being like this. Vulnerable. And I hated seeing Ash the same way.
"Come one Jerry just shoot and let's go" the boy said.
"No, no please don't, he's my only brother" I yelled but to no avail. Ash smiled at me gently right before I heard a deafening bang.
"NO" i screamed at the top of my lungs, and broke down crying. The boy behind me put his arms around my waist, to keep me from falling down.
I kept crying even as the dragged me back to the tent. Whilst crying, i vowed one thing.
I would get my revenge, these boys would pay.
