Finn drove for many hours. They knew they had to at least get out of the town they were in. They certainly couldn't go anywhere near Lima because who knew if Logan and Anna had any more allies looking for them there.

If it wasn't for Sam they would all be dead. Eventually, when it was very dark and late, most of them were very tired. Ryder was exhausted, but fought to stay awake, even though he time, he would eventually find himself dazing again.

When he was close to actually sleeping for the first time in a long time, the car came to a stop and he jerked awake again. Marley, laying on his shoulders was jerked awake as well.

"What's wrong, Ry?" Marley asked him.

"Why are we stopping?" Ryder asked.

"We need to stop." Blaine told them. Finn is exhausted and if he drives any longer we will all be dead by getting hit by another car."

"Don't worry, we'll be safe here." Finn assured them.

They all got out of the car and went into the small building. It didn't look any better on the inside. It looked like a wreck. The carpet was torn and there were holes in the wall. The two windows that were visible, were covered by newspapers so no one could see in or out. They could hear the sounds of water drops hitting the wooden floors. He saw a mirror in the corner that was cracked and he could see a beat up couch and two mattresses.

"Well, at least we know nobody lives here." Blaine mumbled as he finally walked over to where Ryder and Marley were standing.

"Finn, why—are we here? What is this place?" Ryder asked.

"I know it looks like a dump." Finn started and Ryder chuckled.

"You don't say."

"My cousins Margret, Faith, and Kayla used to live here along with my aunt and uncle." Finn told them. "They moved a few years ago when the house started falling apart and Margret started college in Pennsylvania."

"Probably a wise move." Blaine added and they all couldn't help but agree.

"Sorry, I know this isn't ideal, but it's all we've got. At least for now. We need to stay low, we have to go somewhere far and somewhere that Anna, Logan, and Patrick won't find us. Anyway, I am going to hide the car and grab some blankets from the car." He said and went out the door.

"Okay so two bed mattresses and also a bad couch. Great." Blaine said and Ryder sighed.

"At least he found us a place. Cut him some slack. This isn't his fault!" Ryder yelled back at Blaine. Sure, he didn't like it either, but he was complaining. Ryder felt bad for snapping at Blaine. "Sorry, I'm just tired."

"It's alright. We all are." Blaine said and Finn then came back in with blankets.

"Okay, I'll take the couch." Finn said.

"No, it's okay. You sleep on a mattress, you have driving long enough. You should sleep on something comfortable" Ryder says and they all nod in agreement; Finn has to agree.

"Marley should take the other mattress then." Blaine says. "Sam and I can sleep on the floor. Ryder, you okay with taking the couch?" Ryder nods and it didn't take long for everyone to fall asleep, with the exception of Ryder of course.

He just sat on the floor next to the couch. He didn't want to chance it, there could be some kind of species of bugs living in that couch, he wouldn't sleep anyway, what would be the point? Ryder was exhausted, but he wasn't going to sleep. He would end up waking them up with his night terrors.

Ryder then heard a small sound. He looked and saw a light coming from his phone; good thing it was on vibrate. He looked at the screen and "Kitty" appeared on it in big letters. Ryder wondered why Kitty would be calling this late.

He answered it and held it up to his ear. "Kitty?" He questioned.

"Don't worry. She's alive. And that darker guy who screws her is too." A different voice said.

"Anna?" Ryder questioned. It had to be her. "What do you want with Kitty and Jake? What did you do to them?"

"Nothing yet, but can't say the same for a little later." She says and Ryder sighs. Why is everyone he loves being put in danger?

"What do you want?" Ryder asks.

"What the hell do you think we want?" She asks him and Ryder sighs. Of course he does. They want to kill him slowly and painfully. It was obvious. Revenge for being born and putting Logan in prison. "And I know it's hard for a retarded misfit like you to realize the obvious, but if you want these two to live to see sunlight, then you better just—" She says, but Ryder cuts her off.

"Just give me the address and I'll be there. But only if you don't hurt them." Ryder says and he can tell that Anna is probably smirking. The call ends and the next thing is Ryder receiving a text.

1207 Walling Road. Be here by sunrise or they are dead. –Anna

Then a picture comes onto the screen. Ryder sees Kitty and Jake, behind bars. She must have them at the old abandoned place on Walling; people always talked about how it's a prison; it used to be an actual prison. Ryder sighs as he looks at his sleeping friends and then the message on his phone.

He sighs and get ups. He won't take anything with him. Walling isn't too far on foot, should be there in a few hours. He looks at them as he walks out the door. He knows this is probably the last time he will see them, but it doesn't matter. If he stays, Kitty and Jake will die and soon, the rest of them will.

Ryder heads out of the house, not looking back, he knows this is what has to happen. At least it will all be over soon.


Another chapter, sorry for the wait, but I hope you liked it!

I kind of went a little "Insurgent" at the end here! :) So Anna, Logan, and Patrick have Kitty and Jake. Ryder is turning himself in so they don't have to die.

Are they really still alive? Or are they already dead?"
