Beginning of Forever

Chapter 7

"I told you I came here alone" Andy said

"You're lying, why would they send you here alone, stop trying to trick me" Jeff shouted erratically pacing in front of them

"I'm not lying, I've been here for hours, don't you think they would have come if they knew I was here?" Andy asked, trying to keep him calm, Michelle was sitting in a chair next to the two girls, both awake and intensely alert "just tell me what you want Jeff, why are you doing this to your family, your kids-"

"Shut up" he interrupted menacingly approaching her, crouching down to her position on the ground looking her face to face "I'm keeping my family together"

"You've kidnapped them" Andy said, as soon as the words left her he back handed her across the face hard throwing her onto her back

"You don't have your gun and badge to protect you" he said returning to his standing position

"No, where are you taking her?" came the voice of Michelle standing between him and Alex as he grabbed the child's arm pulling her to the door

"Let her go" he said

"No" Michelle responded, Andy shuffled trying to free her hands while Jeff had his back turned, he pulled Alex to the door roughly causing her to fall to the ground, the young child yelped struggling to escape his grip

"Damn it Michelle" he yelled, releasing Alex he lunged at Michelle grabbing her by the shoulders and throwing her into the wall behind her, both the children screamed in fear as Jeff began his assault on Michelle, pushing off the last of the rope Andy rushed to her feet going straight for the chair that was beside the wrestling couple she hoisted it up and smashed it as hard as she could over Jeff, catching him off guard he collapsed atop of Michelle

"Get the keys" Andy said to Alex as she helped roll the large man off of Michelle, he was still dazed from the impact, Andy then grabbed the rope she had been tied up with, working as fast as she could to tie up his wrists "Michelle get his legs" the other woman quickly grabbed the other piece of rope, Jeff began to come out of his daze thrashing about trying to push Andy off of him, she elbowed him in the face, this served to daze him once more "Hurry" Michelle loosely tied his feet together in her haste, rushing over to Alex who had the key and was struggling to unlock the door, Michelle took over and forced the door open

"Get out baby, come on" Michelle said pushing her children out in front of her Andy quickly followed shutting the door behind her, there was a small flight of stairs leading up to a trap door, pushing it open it lead them outside, Andy shut the doors and wedged it shut with a piece of stray wood she found on the ground

"Let's get to the house, I hope he forgot about my holster" Andy said, they ran to the house, the first place Andy went was to where she was attacked, on the floor she saw her holster, searching through it she found it empty, her gun , phone, and car keys gone

"We have to get out of here, he's coming" Michelle said rushing over to Andy from the back door where she had been watching the trap door closely, it began to jerk back and forth violently, all four of them ran out the front door…

"Sammy you need to stop doing that" Oliver said to Sam who was pacing back and forth while on his phone in front of the desk where Tracy was working furiously on her computer

"We need to get going we're wasting time she's been gone for hours, I'm not waiting here any longer" Sam said leaving the two behind and walking towards the locker rooms

"Wait" Oliver said walking after him "you can't go there alone"

"Well then get someone to follow me there, whatever, I'm going either way" Sam said slamming his locker shut after taking his car keys out

"Okay, we'll get a couple uniforms to go with you, but I need you to calm down here brother, we don't need you going in there guns blazing and possibly ruining it" Oliver said stopping Sam in his tracks "we're going to find her Sam, we've just got to do it right"

"What do you want me to do? I can't just stay here I'm going to lose my mind" Sam said, his frustration deflating slightly

"Nash said Andy spoke about going back to one of the houses that were cleared there are three houses, you can go check it out" Oliver said patting Sam on the back as they walked out of the locker room.

"Just keep going" Andy yelled breathlessly at the family ahead of her, they had just passed the main gate of the property finding that Jeff had removed the squad car from where she had parked it, he wasn't far behind them and Andy just tried to encourage the exhausted weak family to keep going as he closed the gap behind them, she worried if they would make it, the car was nowhere in sight (as if they even had the keys anyway) and town was at least twenty minutes from the house…by car, ahead of them there was a stretch of empty road. Glancing behind her she saw that he was slowing down due to his searching for something in his pockets, she used these few seconds to try gain some speed; looking ahead of her again she saw a familiar truck coming their way, seeing the family try to hail the truck down about to call out herself, that's when a large bang rang in her ears followed by a blow to the left side of her back knocking her off her feet into the gravel…

(AN: thanks for reading this, I promise that I will be bringing back the romance in the coming chapters, I think I am done for now with the 'action' scenes, let me know what you think of this)
