OMG! I am soooo sorry 4 not updating sooner. But school has been getting in the way and I've been quite busy, I would of updated last weekend but I had a friend stay over and it was also my birthday last Monday on the 14th (I'm 16!), so I wasn't able to update then. I also couldn't update THIS weekend bcuz I was helping my stepbrother move house.
But no worries, I am here! Thanks for all the reviews!
PS: Just to get an idea of what Cassie looks like. She looks like the actress Brittany Snow, only younger she looks like how Brittany looked in The Pacifier (2005) - her looks will get mentioned in the story. I added a link of what Cassie looks like on my profile. only her eyes are a bit brighter than Brittany's. :)
PSS: I hate to say this but...I deleted my other story, the one about Natalia n' Ryan - OMG, I can't remember what it's called! I'm sorry for those who liked it but I just couldn't see it going anywhere and I was having a difficult time coming up with ideas and I also lost interest. Don't worry, this one has my full interest/attention and isn't going anywhere and 'Greatest Friend, Also a Legend' Is still there and always will be. :) Ok my rant is over, enjoy!
Ryan's eyes opened slowly. It took a few seconds for all the blurriness to disappear. Something was stopping him from moving his arms. He was sat up against, what looked like, the Firearms lab's wall. He remembered that some 'fire fighters' had come in...grabbed him...ran after Cassie...CASSIE!
Ryan's eyes widened. He realised that the reason he couldn't move his arms was because duck-tape was holding them behind his back. He looked around in search for the young CSI. He sighed in relief when he saw her, also tied up, next to him on his left. She turned to look at him when she saw him move at the corner of her eye.
"You ok" she asked quietly. Ryan nodded, She nodded back. They both turned their heads back. In the middle of the room they saw a single chair just sat there, they were confused as to why it was there. They turned their heads to the entrance of the lab when they heard someone walk in. They both recognised him as the man who ran after the small CSI. Ryan recognised the other man that followed as the one who gave him a beating. The CSI's looked up at them.
"Put her in the chair" The man who chased Cassie said. The man walked forward, grabbed her and shoved her towards the chair. The man sat her down, grabbed some more duck-tape and tied her body to the chair. He moved away from her and stood back. The other man, whom they guessed to be the boss of everyone else, walked up to her. Her eyes followed him. She looked up at him when he stopped in front of her.
"What do you wan't from us?" She asked. He smiled down at her.
"The location of where all the evidence, from the college shooting is, aswell as the money" He said. Cassie was confused.
"What money?"
"We heard that you guy's collected some cash from a different case. Turns out we need it." He said slyly. Cassie shook her head and gave a side smile/smirk.
"I'm not telling you anything" She said. The man lost his smile. He bent down and put his face only a few inches from hers. Cassie lost her smile and stared into his dark blue eyes. Crystal blue vs. dark blue.
"Lets make something clear. If you DON'T tell us all we need to know. We will make that pretty face of your's not so pretty" he said.
"Maybe you should try a breath mint" She whispered, her right eye brow twitched slightly. The man straightened up. He smirked, deciding to let her remark go.
"Now, where is the evidence AND the money? I won't ask again" He asked. She laughed.
"Go to hell" She smirked. The intruder wasn't a very patient man. He raised his right hand and punched her in the face. Cassie's head was forced to face towards Ryan when the man hit her. They made eye contact for a second before Cassie turned back to face the man.
"STOP! Leave her alone!" Ryan yelled.
"Shut up!" The other man said.
"Where are they?" The man in front of Cassie asked.
"I thought you said you weren't gonna ask again" she said, he grabbed a chunk of her blonde hair which made her gasp at the force.
"Where are they?"
"Go to hell" She said again. He yanked her hair a little. She gasped and winced at the pain.
"WHERE ARE THEY?" He yelled, frustrated that he was getting nowhere.
"GO TO HELL!" She yelled back. Then she spat in his face. He flinched back and wiped his face. He let go of her hair and retaliated by punching her again, this time a little harder than before. Again, she was forced to look at Ryan - who saw that both punches had made her lip split open again and bleed aswell as her nose.
"Riley!" The man called as he turned away from her. Riley, the man stood near Ryan, walked towards his boss.
"Yes sir"
"Stand watch by the door, make sure no one else is lurking around" He said.
"Yes sir but, what about you?" Riley asked. The other man turned to look at Cassie.
"I am going to find some evidence and money" He said, then he left the room. Riley turned to look at Cassie and then Ryan. They both looked back at him. He then turned and walked outside the lab and stood by the glass door, standing guard.
They both sighed in relief by the fact that they had left them alone to talk, for a while that is.
"You ok?" Ryan asked. Looking her up and down. Cassie took a few seconds to answer before nodding.
"Yeah...Man, that guy really knows how to give a good punch" She remarked. Ryan sighed.
"Got any ideas?" He asked. Cassie was silent for a moment before speaking.
"Not really...I mean, we're both tied up with duck-tape, I'm tied to a chair, with a cut lip and a bloody nose., I mean look, they even tied your legs. I hate to face it, but we're stuck...literally" She stated. Ryan looked down. Cassie frowned. Then she saw a different man walk up to the guy called Riley and speak to him. He saw the other man's eyes shift to look at her. She watched them for a second.
"Yo! You wanna speak up, we can't here you!" She called. The men stopped speaking to look at her. The other man walked in at a fast pace. Ryan was shocked at what she just did, eyes wide, mouth agape and everything.
The man who was walking up to her got the but of his gun and hit her with it. Ryan wanted to know why in the world did he do that to her. It's not like she dissed his mother!
Cassie was shocked by the force of it, she looked up at him, she gained a small gash across her right eyebrow. 'That's gonna leave a scar' Ryan thought. Cassie looked back up to the man.
"Wow, you short tempered like your boss?" She smiled slyly. The man got angry and punched her in the stomach. Cassie groaned.
"Hey, that's enough!" Ryan yelled. The man was about to go towards him until Riley spoke up.
"That's enough Sean" He said. They guy, Sean, took a deep breath to calm his nerves, he was not in the mood to be messed with. Cassie found that out the hard way. Sean turned and walked out the door, Riley followed and when back to standing guard.
Ryan looked at Cassie, she was breathing heavily. He was worried.
"Cassie?" She looked worse than what she did yesterday after the fight with that girl, Blaire.
"I'm good" She croaked out. Ryan hated seeing her like this, he wish he could take all her pain away, she didn't deserve this, even though she was asking for it. She was just a kid. regardless...she still didn't deserve such a thing. Cassie sighed.
"I'm sorry for getting you involved with this Ryan" She said while staring at the ground. Ryan looked up at her.
"It's not your fault, It was my choice to follow you, not yours" He reassured. She looked at him.
"Even so..." She said. Both their heads turned to the sound of a ringing noise. It was some one's cell phone...It was Cassie's cell phone. She remembered that they checked her for any weapons and that's when they found her phone.
Riley heard the ringing and turned around to see both the CSI's looking at the phone. He walked towards it, picked it up and looked at the caller ID.
"Who's this Horatio guy?" He asked, looking at both of them.
"Lieutenant Caine is our boss" Ryan said. Riley smirked.
"Well he can ring all he want's. Your not getting out of here anyway" He said as he pressed 'Decline' on the touch screen phone and set it back down. He chuckled and walked back out the door.
"We need a plan..." Cassie said looking at Ryan.
"I know...It's only a matter of time before they decide to kill us" He said. Cassie grew scared. More scared than before. How WERE they gonna get out of this mess?
*YAWN* It's late...Need to sleep...got skwl in morning which sucks...*YAWN* Night...R&R.
