| Riley POV -Factory |

"Hello." Dante said as he entered with the girl Amanda.

"How are you?" I stepped foward, trying to act casual.

"What do you want?" Darren spat, I shot a glare at him, warning him to be silent.

"We're looking for a girl. Goes by the name of Tiffany. Know her?" Dante spoke, casually.

"No. Why are you after her?" John looked at him.

"She's Dangerous." Amanda spoke.

"She'll say whatever she has to, to get on your good side, then she'll backstab you." Dante spat. "Did it to me..."

"We'll tell you if we see anything." I smiled.

"I bet you will... Mind if we check around for a bit?" Dante looked at me.

"Yes, we do mind." John scowled at him.

"Your hiding something if you mind it." Amanda hissed at John.

"You'll have to leave now." I pointed to the door.

"Not till we thoroughly search this place. Her bracelet was seen near here." Dante spoke, reaching into his back pocket.

"You can't do that." Willy scowled at him.

Suddenly without warning we heard a loud gunshot, and Willy toppled over, a round bullet hole in his forehead. Dante was holding a gun, aiming at him.

"That will teach you to talk back to me. Now i'll search." Dante went to walk but Darren suddenly grabbed him by the arm.

"You asshole." Darren mumbled as he swung a punch but it was easily blocked and Darren was kicked down.

"Next time I won't let you walk away from here." Dante smirked, walking again.

"Riley, do something..." John whispered to me.

Rebecca was kneeling by her husband, crying."

"Like wha... I got it..." I whispered back. "When Krystal was very young we had a secret code whenever we did something bad to signal the other one to run... I just hope she hears it..."

"Good luck..." John whispered.

"Hey! You two, girl and guy! What would you do if I run away?" I called, putting a ton of emphasis on 'run away'.

"Kill you, simple." Dante smirked.

"How will they escape?" John whispered.

"There's a window upstairs, not too high, let's just hope none of them are scared of heights." I joked, trying to make light of the situation.

Dante started heading up the stairs.

Come on Krystal... Come on... Please... Your fate lies in your own hands, make me proud...

"What was that about?" Lauren looked at me, whispering.

"You'll see. I hope..." I whispered back.

"All clear!" Dante called from upstairs.

"No one's up there?" Amanda called back to him.

"Yeah, let's leave!" Dante started heading down stairs then.

"Good bye." I scowled at him.

"If I found out you lied to me, I'll come back here and slaughter you all. Got that?" Dante shot daggers at me.

"Deal." I mumbled sarcastically.

As soon as Dante's and Amanda's car disappeared from view, Krystal, Tiffany, and Emily ran back in.

"Krystal..." Lauren ran and hugged her daughter,

"Riley, you remembered our code..." Krystal looked at me.

"Of course I did..." I smiled.

"D-dad..." Emily looked at Rebecca and the now dead Willy.

"Dante did it."John sighed.

"It's my fault for coming here..." Tiffany backed away.

"No it's not." I looked at her. "He woulda came anyway, looking for you. Even if you hadn't come here."

I looked at Emily, and saw something I thought I'd never see. The strong, brave, occasionally mean person was... Crying. She finally got broken down...

"Emily..." John walked to her, and everyone stared at him.

"What the hell do you want?" Emily dried her tears trying to act strong.

"You can't fool me, I saw the tears Emily. Here..." He suddenly wrapped his arms around her, hugging her, trying to comfort her.

Emily looked at him, angrily for a few moments, and everyone was scared she'd slap him, and everyone was shocked when she started to sob into his shirt.

"Shh... It's okay Emily... You don't have to be strong all the time." John whispered to her.

"I will find that son of a bitch... And kill him..." Emily managed between sobs.

"We all want that." I crossed my arms.

"We can't just go in and execute all his people, their innocent, just following him." Darren looked at me.

"We also don't know how many people he has." Lauren sighed.

"About 15, when I left." Tiffany spoke suddenly.

"I'll protect you, make sure you don't end up at his camp again okay?" I embraced her, as she hugged me tightly back, not letting go.

"You know where his camp is though right?" Darren looked at her.

"Yes, why?" Tiffany stared at him.

"We're going in, soon. Not today, we need rest, and need time to bury Willy." Darren looked at Willy sadly. "He was my best friend, I will avenge you."

| Dante POV - Camp |

"That was a dead end." Amanda crossed her arms.

"I don't think so... It's what that kid said, he emphasised run away... Was he giving a signal?" I sighed, rubbing my forehead.

"If he was, that just means we have to kill them right?" Amanda looked at me.

"Right." I smiled.

"She will be found." Amanda walked out.

Yes she will, or I will die trying. Amanda's loyal, but her usefullness is running thin. I might need to dispose of her soon, she found crucial evidence, but she's not strong, I don't know yet, man... I might need to go back to that factory when their not expecting it, alone. No car so they don't hear us... And see if we spot her.
