"Mum? Where are you?" a three year old version of me asked.

"I'm right here"

"But I can't see you I'm scared mummy"

She laughed "I'm always here I'll always be in your heart Kimberlie"

I shook my head "but you left me"

I woke up crying. I was hot even though the room was freezing.

He was sat drinking a beer can "hi darling"

"Seriously we're doing that now?"

He shrugged his shoulders.

"You don't care about me" I said. "You never have because I was never yours besides if you cared you would have left me in the hospital to heal"

I stared at the chains on the wall and shook my head "I wish she took me too I wish that you didn't stop her"

He dropped the beer can and pounced on me "you bitch you are better off without her like I am. We are better together" he banged my head against the wall.

I screamed feeling the blood pound in my head.

He held a finger up to my mouth. "ssh baby ssh it'll be okay"

I tried to push him off me.

He laughed and took out a handcuff "I'm stronger than you"

He locked the handcuff around a hook right above my head and put my left arm in the other so I was forced to my tiptoes.

"Why are you doing this?" I asked him as he rubbed himself against me.

"To make sure that you can't escape" he said. He kicked my stomach.

I curled over, my feet were off the ground now and my wrist was killing now. My tears echoed as they dropped on the floor.

He stroked my thighs and felt me.

I closed my eyes.

He passed out.

Alone again. Only the sound of him snoring is any sign of anyone else being here.

"Do you think we're doing the wrong thing?" Jerry asked as we walked to the dojo.

I shook my head "it's the right thing to do"

"But we were horrible"

I sighed "I know but what else could we do? Jack is just driving himself crazy with worry and that rumour probably doesn't help"

"We've both seen Jack when he's in war mood"

"He's gonna hate us dude"

"That's why we are doing this" I said "I feel guilty for being horrible"

"Me too but do you think we're really helping?" he asked.

"Who knows? But I can't just sit back and do nothing while Kim is missing"

Jack

I was tired, and beginning to loose hope. I had searched everywhere I thought he would take Kim. But with no luck, it was destroying me each time stabbing my heart.

I missed her. I missed her blonde hair, her beautiful brown eyes. I missed her catchphrases such as 'boom goes the dynamite' and 'this is my jam!' I missed her temper that could explode at any moment, mainly at Jerry.

I skated until the end of town and found some woods that I didn't even know were here. It seemed like a good place to hide if you were panicked.

I walked carefully through the trees. It was sinister. The trees seemed to be reaching out towards me and trying to stop me from proceeding forward, like they were hiding something or protecting something. They scratched at my arms and at my feet, one branch that twisted around my ankle dragging me to the ground.

I managed to wriggle free and I ran through the woods. I found myself in a clearing in front of a huge warehouse. I crept up to it and peered into it. There was nothing inside but some very long chains hanging down from the wall.

I let out a huge sigh. I hadn't realised but I had been holding my breath.

"Just one more look round the back and then I will go" I whispered to myself. I felt like I was being watched and I am not one for being paranoid, normally I leave that up to Kim.

I found a white, at least I think it was white, it was an old beat up van but it was there. I walked up to it and looked in the back which was open. I don't break things unless you count that time when I flung myself through the wall trying to escape the cops or in the dojo with the breaking boards and that dummy that I managed to make headless.

There was some beer cans in the back and some tools. There was also broken shards of glass even though, apart from the front, the van had no windows. And the front window was in tact.

"Where are you Kim?" I asked shaking my head "this is no way for any of us to live"

My phone vibrated in my pocket making me jump. "Hello?"

"Jack we have had a breakthrough I need you to meet me at Kim's house?"

"Yes DS Nixon I'll be there as soon as I can" I said, hanging up the phone.

Kim's house was cordoned off with bright yellow police tape. It was a true picture of a crime scene, even though the true crime scene was the hospital.

"Excuse me son but no-one is going in there" A uniformed officer said to me.

"DS Nixon phoned me asking me to meet her here" I argued.

"PC Roberts he's here to help with the investigation" DS Nixon said. "Hi Jack I'm sorry that the house is like this but its protocol"

I nodded "why did you want to see me?"

"I need to show you something and ask you something okay?"

She led me into Kim's house which looked like a tip since the last time I saw it. Mind you that was then Kim's mum Angie was still around. She led me into the kitchen.

I gasped "he's an alcoholic"

She nodded. "I'm beginning to wonder if this is more than abduction. His bedroom suggests more. When we searched it we found a knife under the pillowcase and ropes, and handcuffs all stained with blood."

I felt faint. It was horrible. There were slight blood smears all over the room. Was Kim a plaything to him?

"Jack I think this wasn't planned and cases such as these the abductor makes mistakes. Please don't give up hope"

I nodded "do you have any idea where she could be?"

She shrugged her shoulders "that's what I wanted to ask you how far did you get?"

I shook my head "not very far I found this warehouse in the middle of some woods I think she might be there. But if the police are sent in it might spook him into hurting Kim more"

"Okay" she said "but if you find her don't try save her yourself let me know okay?"

I nodded. I just hoped Kim was going to be there.
