CHAPTER FOUR
" Get OFF of me! Let me go! Stop holding my hair!" was all Logan was worried about when he was being dragged away by his friends into some place he rather not explore.
" Let me go, you bastard!" he struggled, jerked, spat during his whole trip to another room within the basement, only he and the guys didn't know that and Hawk was going to take full advantage of that unknown knowledge.
" The chair" he heard Hawk say from behind him as the goons did the hard labor. Once he entered a similar room as his own, dull, grey walls but without cots but some uncomfortable looking chairs.
He was brutally pushed down into the chair, he scrambled to stand back up but was pushed down once again. Sparrow and Eagle held his ankles down to the arms of the chairs as Falcon wrapped thick rope around his wrists, thus preventing any deems of escaping.
Logan, knowing where this was going, kicked Falcon, who was standing in front of him, where the sun doesn't shine. Falcon immediately fell to his knees in pain. With only one hand tied to the chair, he jumped up and struggled to untie it. But his hopes of escaping left as near as it came as Eagle took action as his ally had fallen by punching Logan on his knee resulting in a cry from him and kneeling to the ground.
Logan felt nothing but pain from the blow to his right knee. He could feel his thumping hearts beat within his knee muscles. Logan couldn't help but go limp, the blow to his knee made his vision go slightly blurred and fuzzy for a good minute, which was long enough for his other hand to be tied down.
Now, with his hands tied down to the arms of the chair, he came back to his senses.
" Let me go! Untie my hands!" he shouted relentless pleas.
" Shut up! Now don't move!" Sparrow shouted at him as he bent down. Logan was partially confused but them realized he was tying his feet to the chair as well so he started to flail those as well, totally ignoring his order to stay still.
Falcon finally recovered from his nut situation and was furious, he clenched his fists together glaring at the boy. Logan felt someone staring at him and stopped kicking his feet, looking up and noticing Falcons gaze, he gulped in realization.
Not smart on his part, kicking him in the nonos.
Logan's eyes grew wide with fear, he was now completely defenseless. He decided he should shut his mouth, now that they have the upper hand and pissed them off enough.
" Not so tough now are ya?" Hawk spoke up for the first time. Logan couldn't believe he just sat there while these idiots manhandled them but then again, it didn't surprise him either. Logan had a witty comeback considering Hawk isn't tough either but Hawk wasn't the one tied to the chair, he was.
He just stared as Hawk gave a dry chuckle to himself.
" You better apologize to falcon"
Logan was well aware at how mad he made the bird man and took a quick glance and he was in the same position, if looks could kill, Logan would be dead, for sure. He looked back to Hawk, disturbed by the cold eyes.
Hawk took a step towards Logan, his look no longer comical, " I said apologize" he said lowly as he felt a trickle of sweat fall down his forehead.
Logan slowly looked toward the man who still hadn't moved and whispered, " Sorry.."
" Sorry what?" Hawk continued
" Sorry for kicking you.."
" Where?"
" The balls" Logan rolled his eyes at his childlike manner
" Falcon?" Hawk looked over to his furious follower. " Do you accept?"
The only thing Falcon did was look at Hawk then directed his gaze back to Logan who looked away in fright. Falcon smirked, confusing Hawk until he noticed Logan wouldn't look at him, which caused him to smirk as well.
" Very well... Have fun" hawk bidded as he began his way out.
" Wait, you can't leave me here! Wait!" Logan shouted as Hawk simply turned to him and raised his eyebrows, waiting.
" Where are you going.." he said normally.
" Oh, I'M leaving, but don't worry, Falcon will keep you company. See you later" Hawk bidded as he shut the door, leaving Falcon and Logan alone. Logan couldn't help but stare at the door in disbelief. Was he going to be left in this room with Falcon regardless of what he did or was this spontaneous? He is beginning to regret his decision in a frail attempt to escape.
For his own sense of dignity, he kept staring at the door, not looking away from it to turn his head at the monster he was left with.
Falcon was somewhat amused at the boy's action, smart on his part but amused nonetheless.
In amusement, he decided he would circle around the pale boy, for suspense. He made sure that he took every ounce of the boy in him. His height, his stature, his weight, muscle mass, possible mental state.
Being intimidated is an understatement when Logan thought he was being observed. This oversized creep was literally staring at him, everywhere. Why? WHy though?
" Just get it overwith.." he thought out loud lowly. Logan popped his head up when he realized he said it out loud, shocked at himself.
Falcon shot his eyebrows up when he spoke. He thought for sure the only other noise he'd hear from him is from pain. But surprisingly, he still had his mouth in his throat.
" Get what over with?" Falcon questioned, knowing the answer already. He took off his ski masks since it was bothering him and placed it by the door. Logan watched intently, wondering why he was giving away his identity, even though he didn't even know the man, he had now seen his face.
" Just beat me to a pulp already" Logan lifted his head a little higher following the man circling him with his head.
" How do you know I'm going to beat you to a pulp?"
It was LOgan's turn to change his eyebrow position, " Isn't it obvious?" He looked at his self. " I'm tied to a chair, I'm not stupid"
" I know you're far from stupid. Apparently, you're the brains of this whole group thing" Falcon decided to make a conversation.
Logan shrugged his shoulders, " Not really, compared to the others, sure. But if I was thinking I wouldn't be here right now, would I?"
Falcon nodded his head, agreeing somewhat. " Okay, you are the smart one."
Logan made a look, what was this guy doing? Why couldn't he just do it already? He was accepting his fate and it isn't happening. This literally boggled Logan's mind.
" Now, I'm no teenage girl but, Hawk also said you crumple under pressure. Which is probably why you're here now, you panicked and went off adrenaline."
Logan didn't answer, waiting to see where it was going.
" Sooo... if you still want to be a doctor you do know that you could be the sole reason for someone's fate either living or dying right? If you're operating, you can't go on adrenaline, you have to stay focused and go off all your knowledge."
Logan didn't answered, he didn't even scoff. WHo was he to tell him what he would do if he became a real doctor. Doctor's go off adrenaline too and sometimes the adrenaline is what saves peoples lives. What did he know? Adrenaline is what causes you to really think about what you're doing or about to do.
Okay so Logan was a bad example but Doctors are different. Wait, why are they talking about Doctors? He's tied to a table for crying out loud.
" Since you went off adrenaline, your actions might have just caused you to die."
Oh, now it kinda makes sense... the doctor just killed his patient, himself. Great metaphor he rolled his eyes at his mental accusation.
" Just do it already!" he shouted, sick of waiting.
Falcon knew he'd break, being put under pressure was going to be the end of him and he didn't even know it.
" Why do you want me to beat you so bad? Maybe we were going to beat your buddies and make you watch."
That made Logan pale but soon snapped out of it because there was no screen to be shown to him.
" But you're not so.." Logan finally answered.
Falcon was surprised at how witty and smart he was, but then again, he was no genius either. But Falcon couldn't just start beating the shit out of him, he needed to be angry or it wasn't as satisfying.
" but I can't"
Logan whipped his head in his direction, clearly confused. Falcon didn't know much about BTR except the basics he learned from Hawk and given information. So he didn't really know what to do to piss the kid off, ultimately leaving the African American at loss. But being an African American prisoner for a good amount of time, alot of things made him go off the hinges easily, he just needed the boy to do it unknowingly, but what?
Logan was left to stare, confusingly at this guy, was he serious? He wouldn't hit him? this must be the stupidest criminal ever. What criminal doesn't do what they're suppose to do?
It all fell into place in Falcon's brain, this kid was a hypocrite. Believing everything he reads, as if books got you anywhere in life, he scoffed. This kid thinks that he is the deranged animal, a crazy criminal. No wonder he is so confused at to why he won't beat him. Obviously he wouldn't be a cop anytime soon because he is an idiot.
This thought alone made Falcon's skin boil. Of course he was deranged, but he was pissed as to why he didn't make him think like that, he practically knew that, what does he think he knows everything now? He doesn't know him! He doesn't!
Logan's emotions were on a thin wire as he saw the man's facade change drastically. He saw it in his eyes, the rage, anger. What did he do? He's barely said anything, the way he liked it. He stayed mainly silent so he wouldn't piss him off. But apparently staying silent just pissed him off. He was a criminal after all, he was bound to get angry anyway.
He felt a wave of fear overcome him when the man approached him with unsteady movements with clenched fists. He wanted this to happen right? Well then why is he panicking? What he died? This isn't how Logan wanted to die, non fighting, giving up, allowing it. But he couldn't kill him right? Hawk said-
Logan's thoughts were taken from him as the man began to beat him senseless like he figured.
First with a punch to the gut, causing him to bend over. Second with a backhand across the back of his head which wasn't that bad in his opinion. Thirdly, he took his hand and slammed it down onto the top of his left arm, bruising his arm against the armchair. Logan bit in his yelp. He saw his arm quickly redden from the slap.
Next was something he thought was childish, he tried to indian burn his arm, granted it hurt alot, but it taken him back. Realizing Logan almost cried out but didn't, angered him again and kicked his shin then stomping on his right foot.
Logan could only gasp for breath.
" Know it all" Falcon huffed as he delivered another blow to Logan's left cheek, knocking the wind from him, again. Falcon took his fist and slammed it onto Logan's nose, causing massive blood to fall and onto his mouth and chin. Logan just licked it, tasting it's metallic consistency, trying to distract himself from the pain in his head.
" Stupid doctor.. thinks.. he know... everything" he would spit out every few punch or so, getting blood on his fists. Falcon was becoming more pissed, Logan wouldn't cry out like his normal victims. He delivered punch after punch to Logan's face, stomach and back, most likely to have several bruises later. But the blow to his knee, that was already purple.
" AHH" he grunted as he picked Logans chair up and threw it a good foot away, tipping the chair. Ending with Logan landing on the right side of the chair. He laid his head on the cold floor, biting his lip.
His whole right side hurt from the fall. Especially his knee, he was partially glad his jeans was preventing him from seeing his own battered knee. He was positive his lip was bleeding from biting it so much but with the blood from his nose, he couldn't be too sure.
Falcon thumped over to him, bent down and picked up his face, " Scream! Beg for mercy! Something!" he demanded.
Logan looked at the wall, ignoring him, refusing.
Falcon yelled in aggravation, smashing his head into the stone hard cement. Logan finally gave in and gave a hurl of screams. His vision was becoming hazy, his head was thumping like a rabbits foot. The amount of blood coming from his nose was causing difficulties to breathe. He sucked in air from his mouth, trying to get his breathing together. He could barely think thanks to his throbbing knee. At least his knee was leaning on the cold floor, releasing some comfort, but not much.
He felt the buff man grab him by the collar of his shirt, lifting him in an uncomfortable decision, causing his back a split string of pain bring lifted sideways.
" I WILL make you beg for mercy, boy."
Logan couldn't even open his eyes, let alone respond to his statement. He just released a shaky breath in return. Pissed off, Falcon delivered a final blow to Logan's nose, gushing more blood and stood up. He started to wipe the blood off onto his black attire. He walked over to the door, picked up his ski masks and used it as a rag on his hands.
Logan didn't even bother to acknowledge what the dark man was doing, he left his eyes closed and focused solely on breathing. How long was that beating? A good 20 minutes? That was a hell of 20 minutes... but he was going in and out so much, he had no idea how long this session was.
His mind began to swim, would this happen to all his friends? His face twisted at the thought. A face of pain on the frail boy. He would gladly take another is it meant that they wouldn't get one. It wasn't that bad right? He started to cough horridly, choking on his nose blood. He gasped.. yeah not that bad. He tried to stay optimistic but failing.
Falcon looked down at the boy, whose face was twisted and ragged. He wasn't proud of his work, it wasn't fulfilled, he didn't beg for mercy. He was the mighty Falcon for crying out loud.
A thought came to his mind and he smirked in anticipation. He walked over to the down boy, went behind him and knelt down. He noticed the boy jerk away. He smirked as he Lifted the shirt, behind his back. Logan's breath hitched, having absolutely no idea what was going through his head.
Falcon took his fingers and put them on his back and scratched as hard and deeply as he could into the smarty pants' back. He smiled in victory as Logan screeched in pain. Now with four bloody scratch marks across his back, he was satisfied. He took his bloody fingers and wiped them over Logan's face, but mostly his left cheek, which was visible from him laying down in the chair.
" I'll be right back" he hissed noticing Logan shudder at his breath on his chilling cheek from his own blood.
Logan was glad he was leaving but a wave of panic washed over him as he realized he was being left in this position. His throat was dry as he tried to make a plea. But that scratch was deathly to his lungs. Making them on fire. He never thought he'd scream that loud by a measly scratch but that was no scratch in his mind anymore.
The Falcon used his talons.
And it hurt like hell.
Before Logan could muster a whisper, he was left alone, lying on the ground, tied to a chair.
Logan's nightmare was to bleed out, that was painful. SLowly feeling yourself slip away. He knew it wasn't technically possible to bleed out by your nose but fear had overtaken him and he was now accepting all options.
You could have dropped a pin onto the floor and it would be the only thing heard in Gustavo's office.
Gustavo, Kelly and Mrs. Knight had just watched both videos for the third time. Soon after Gustavo and Kelly showed the mother the first video, the one they saw. They noticed another clip on the flash drive...
Another video.. with all of them on it, and Logan was reading instead of Carlos... who had been gagged, alongside James and her baby, Kendall.
Mrs. Knight took note that her son wouldn't look into the camera.
Not.
Even.
Once.
It worried her because everyone else was looking at the camera but him. Was he told not to look at the camera? Was he told to look at it but he was being his defiant self and refused? She could only hope that wouldn't end up getting beat even more than he has.
He had already had a nasty bruise on his cheek, which was being clearly shown. It was also noted that he was beyond pissed. Momma Knight knows the look Kendall has when he is full blown angry. he has only been full blown angry a few times before. But she hadn't seen that look since they've been in LA.
That alone worried her. when he was angry, he was unpredictable. And she didn't want himself to do anything to danger anyone. Even though she knew he would do anything to protect his friends. The gag wrapped around his mouth was a look that didn't fit Momma Knight to well either.
None of them did.
She was in pure and utter shock, this is real. Her babies were gone and that flash drive video was proof.
She numbly made her way to Gustavo's couch and put her head into her hands, silently crying has her emotions had finally overtook her.
Kelly's heart broke as she saw Mrs. Knight cry, she was in shock too but she couldn't even imagine what the other women must be going through. They LIVE with her, she CARES for them.
Kelly slowly made her way to the oldest Knight women and placed a hand on her back and rubbed circles. She felt water prick her eyes as well but they wouldn't shed.
She couldn't imagine anything at this point, even though this was very real.
Lastly, Gustavo was sitting on his chair, unmoved. He had just seen his dogs, HIS dogs, bound and caged as if they were dogs. That pissed Gustavo off.
He got pissed when Carlos and Logan were forced to read the demands and not the coward kidnapper.
He grew pissed when Logan was forced to say hurtful words towards himself, You being the stubborn, annoying, stick up your ass, dickhole you are. He knew Logan was hesitant by the way he paused and stuttered. That must've bothered him as much as he was bothered by it himself.
Yeah he was stubborn, annoying and had an occasional stick up with hass but he wasn't a dick hole. He wasn't worried about their image or the media! He was worried about his dogs! Whoever took them must have an egotistical train of thought!
He got pissed when Kendall wouldn't look at the camera, was Kendall pissed at Gustavo? Did he not even want us to see him? Was he too proud? Gustavo thought of Kendall as a younger, better version of himself when he was younger.
Even though Gustavo was forced to play piano and such, Kendall is forced to sing, but they both enjoy it enough to not care. They both have some anger issues but they don't care. Kendall's personality was one of the reasons he was chosen to be brought to LA in the first place.
He got pissed that Mrs. Knight was being forced to lie to her daughter.
He was pissed when he wanted the media involved ASAP.
He was pissed when that if they weren't met, they were threatened that it would be the last time they'd see his dogs, ever.
He was pissed off by this whole situation. Of all people for this to happen to it was HIS wolf pack.
He glanced away from the now black screen and looked towards Kendall's mother who was silently crying on his couch with Kelly no too far behind either. He didn't like to see women cry. When women cried it reminded him of his mother, he loved his mother and hated to see her cry.
Thus, he hated crying women.
He stood from his chair and approached the Mom.
He held his hand out and she shakily took it, looking up at him with teary eyes. He was always awkward with his emotions so he slowly held his arms out, much to Kelly's surprise. But she slightly smiled nonetheless.
Mrs. Knight immediately accepted Gustavo's open arms and cried. Gustavo slowly closed his arms around her, still awkward about this new thing, "hugging."
" There. there..." he spoke scrunching his eyebrows, looking for Kelly's help. She motioned her hand to continue.
" Mrs. Knight... I will ahh... do everything in my power... to make sure... K-Kendall and everyone comes home... safely." he said calmly, trying to comfort the distraught woman.
She released from his hug and looked at him, " I believe you will, because I will too." she gave a small smile, backing away from Gustavo.
" Okay, so what do we do now?" Mrs. Knight wiped her tears off her face and trying to make sure her mascara wouldn't run anymore.
" I guess we tell the police, just like ..Logan said too." Kelly answered softly. Jennifer nodded her head in agreement.
" Then?" she questioned.
" Uhm.." Gustavo started, " Jen, you can't tell Katie, remember." it came out more like a question than a statement.
She nodded her head sadly, " What do I tell her? What can I tell her?"
" As of right now, you can't really say anything.. so don't" Kelly replied sympathetically.
" This is going to be tough" Mrs. Knight began to pace around the room until Kelly put a hand on her shoulder.
" Do it for the boys... do it for your son, Jen"
They made eye contact then she nodded slowly, " So, the call?"
Gustavo nodded and went back over to his chair and took a seat.
" Before I call, what do we say? We all need to stick to one lie and stick with it or they'll get all snoopy. We can't tell them about these videos so what do we say?" he asked the two women.
Jennifer took a deep breath, thinking. " The boys failed to come to rehearsal so you called me and I informed you they haven't been home all day. The key is to stick as close to the truth as possible, because we'll remember that. But ... exaggerate on everything else. So that's what we'll do."
Kelly and Gustavo nodded in agreement.
Gustavo took a deep breath and picked up the phone to dial 911.
911 what's your emergency?
"Yes, hello? I'm Gustavo Rocque from Rocque Records and I would like to make a missing persons claim"
Has the person been gone for over 24 hours?
"Uhm.. no"
I'm sorry sir but there is nothing I can do to help you. Please call back once it has been 24 hours, thank y-
"Wait! It's children missing!.. Teenagers actually"
Would you like to file an Amber Alert?
" On four boys?"
Wait, did you say four boys are missing?"
"Yes, four teenagers, Big Time Rush, is missing"
This changed everything, thank you for stopping me from hanging up. Can you describe the boys please?
Gustavo nodded, even though she couldn't see it, he took a breath and started, " Kendall Knight, James Diamond, Carlos Garcia and Logan Mitchell all make up Big Time Rush."
Okay, the police are on their way to your location, would you like for me to stay on the phone with you until they arrive?
"Please."
Okay, when the police arrive they are going to want to know everything about each of the four boys, do they have a guardian?
"Yes, Kendall's mother, she is here with me."
Okay, what happened with her?
" The boys were suppose to come to rehearsal so I had my assistant call Mrs. Knight and ask where they were and she said they had been gone for hours. We tried calling their phones but none of them answered, which is odd because they always answer, their phones are like their lives" Gustavo chuckled slightly
Okay, do you have any idea if they went someplace and forgotten or something?
"No ma'am, today was a soundcheck for a performance they have been dying to do tomorrow, they just don't forget." he said harsher than intended
I understand that sir but is it a possibility?
" No" Gustavo made it clear to get his point across
Okay, have the police arrived yet?
At that statement, police sirens were heard outside of Rocque Records, causing the adults to divert their attentions to the window
"Yes, thank you"
No problem, I hope that they get found
Gustavo nodded and hung up.
" They're here" Kelly stood from the couch
The door swung open to reveal Katie, with fear in her eyes, " Are the cops here for us?"
" No sweetie, we just had to file a report, that's all." Kelly partially lied
Katie nodded her head slowly, slightly confused. SHe didn't understand why Kelly didn't come to get her like she promised. It's been like an hour and a half in that room, doing nothing. She noticed how everyone looked uneasy, even Gustavo. her mother wouldn't look at her.
" What's going on?"
No one answered her, there was a stern silence in the room until the cops entered Gustavo's office.
" Who made the 911 call?" a cop asked
" I did" the cop nodded and asked Gustavo to leave the room. Several cops flooded Rocque Records, pulling everyone away from each other.
I know! It's short! But I originally had Chapter 4, 40pgs! I had to shorten it so I cut it up into pieces, chapter five will probably be updated tonight or tomorrow! I was also hoping to get more exposure! If any writers out there would shout me out! I'd love you forever! Thanks!
Sorry for any mistakes!
