A/N: As you may have noticed from the chapter heading, the narrators will not necessarily have their own chapters anymore. That way was too short.

Chapter 7 Amy and Lan

Amy POV:

I was pulled into the van by the scruff of my neck (what a cliché). Eisenhower Holt jerked me around and grinned this awful grin.

"Y-you are the C-C-Cahills behind th-this" I stuttered.

"That's right. We Holts need to pick your brain, dearie." Mary-Todd simpered.

I struggled to get free and tried to scope out the situation but Eisenhower got in my way.

"Aren't you going to ask what we want your brain for? Is your ego acting up Miss Cahill", Mary-Todd asked.

"N-n-no, I'm just tr-tr-trying to get away from your huh-usband. I'll humor you th-hough, why do you w-w-want to pih-ick my br-br-brain?"

"Not te-telling!" mocked Madison.

I twisted around and Eisenhower dropped me. I fell on my back and saw Ian Kabra and an Asian-looking girl with dyed hair staring at me. I did NOT see Dan.

I start screaming and hitting Eisenhower Holt with as much strength as I possibly could (not much)"What have you d-done with D-Dan! What have you d-done w-with D-Dan!"

I hear a voice with an Australian accent calling my name, "Amy! Amy Cahill! What are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed!"

Oh right. Beating up Eisenhower Holt might not be a bright idea. I am thrown across the van and hit a wall.

The world starts to fade out again and I hear a voice too anguished to distinguish the accent from: "No. No. No. Amy…"

Lan's POV : (A/N:Starts at the beginning of this chapter):

That monster Eisenhower Holt pulls in another poor victim of the Holts' cruel game. This one is female and has auburn hair. Her hair is rather pretty but I can't see the rest of her, therefore I don't know who she is. Next to me, Ian takes a sharp breath in.

When the girl starts talking to the mother of this mutant family I whisper to Ian, "Do you know who that is?"

He actually sounds worried when he responds: "Amy Cahill."

Eisenhower Holt drops Amy. She looks so fragile, but she also looks like a fighter. She looks back at us and I see her eyes, green like her brother's.

The fragility drops away and she starts shouting and hitting Eisenhower: "What have you d-done with D-Dan! What have you d-done w-with D-Dan!"

I realize that I have to do something. I start shouting at Amy: "Amy! Amy Cahill! What are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed!"

Ian winces. I think there might be something seriously wrong with him (called lovesickness). I see Eisenhower start to wind up and I realize that Amy's in BIG trouble. He throws her and her body hits the wall and spread-eagles. The Holt boy (I forget his name) flinches and one o f the twins starts to cry.

Ian stares in shock and then whispers so quietly I can barely hear him: "No. No. No. Amy…"

He then covers his face with his hands and shuts himself off to the world. Dear God, I actually feel sorry for him. A Lucian! Poor, poor Ian.

I just hope he doesn't throw himself out of this death-van next.
