But well, here's the chapter, enjoy!
They walked for a while until Nicole finally stopped and pointed to the back part of the big tree Jade was hanged on "There..." she exclaimed and Beck immediately ran towards it, he walked around it with hope and fear filling up his body before finding out if that woman was telling the truth and then he saw Jade or what was left of her, she was hanging from the tree by her wrists and her white dress covered in blood, she had lots of marks on her arms and legs and her hair was falling over her face but it was her.
"Oh my god..." Beck exclaimed as he fell on his knees and covered up his mouth.
"Jadey!" Cat cried at the awful scene.
"We found her body" One of the cops informed by radio.
"God..." Tori covered her mouth too, she couldn't believe what she was seeing and neither could the rest of the gang; the picture was just so heartbreaking and painful to see.
"What kind of monster can do this to a girl?" Sikowitz questioned completely thrilled by the situation.
"Jade..." Beck stood up with tears running down his face and walked towards her, he wanted to touch her but he was so scared to hurt her more "Get her down" he ordered but the cops were already on that; Beck finally managed himself to touch her softly and hugged her gently just in time before the cops cut the rope.
Jade's body suddenly fell into Beck's embrace before he sat on the grass with her body on his lap and stared at her damaged face, she looked so hurt and pale, he stroke her face gently as he cried his eyes out "Jade, Jade..." he kept whispering as he stroke her delicate cheeks "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" Beck screamed in rage and pain to the sky while holding Jade's body against his chest.
Nobody could get close to them, they all understood that it was something Beck needed to do, he needed to touch her and see her to convince himself that she was dead, Beck started untying the rope around Jade's wrists and stroke them softly afraid of hurting her even though she couldn't feel anything anymore, that's what he thought until he felt Jade's pulse, he immediately touched her neck and smiled "SHE IS ALIVE, SHE IS ALIVE" He screamed and an officer immediately felt her pulse, indeed she was alive, weak but alive.
"Yes, she is alive" The officer informed and everyone's faces lighted up, Jade wasn't dead after all, at least not yet.
"Yes" Cat gasped in happiness, she only wanted to see Jade okay.
"Thank god" Robbie exclaimed.
"Yes, baby, you're gonna make it" Beck whispered in her ear and kissed her cheek still with tears running down his face.
"I need the doctor to be ready, she needs attention now" The officer informed and the helicopter got Jade on board and the gang after her while the cops took care of Nicole and her family of psychos.
"Okay, okay I know you love her but I need to check her so please stay out of the way" the doctor ordered as he got all the things he needed ready, they were on their way to the hospital but she needed to stop bleeding.
The doctor cut off Jade's dress with a pair of scissors revealing her very injured body; she was only wearing underwear and a bra so everyone could see her legs, arms and belly, she looked slightly skinnier and covered in marks and scars.
"They stabbed her..." the doctor informed as he checked her "I don't know if it touched an organ, it doesn't seem so but I need to stop the bleeding" he said and proceeded to cover it up with a bandage, it wasn't too long before they arrived to the hospital and Jade was put in emergencies., though.
"She's lost so much blood" the doctor from the helicopter informed "her type is O negative"
"We don't have that type of blood" the other doctor commented, Beck was standing behind them and immediately joined the conversation.
"I'm O negative, take all the blood you need" he said
"Perfect, follow me" the doctor ordered and Beck did, the nurse extracted some blood and told Beck to go back to the waiting room.
"She needs to recover" Beck exclaimed as he walked around the waiting room anxiously, he needed news, it'd been over an hour since they got there.
"She will, she is a very strong young woman" Sikowitz commented "I mean after all the things she went through, she shouldn't be alive but she is"
"Remember when she said she felt she shouldn't come?" Cat asked and they nodded "I think she had a bad feeling "
"Yes, she did and I insisted...if I hadn't, she would be okay" Beck exclaimed feeling guilty.
"Hey, Beck this wasn't your fault, how were you supposed to know there was a family of murderers in the forest? No one here knew" Andre commented.
"But I should have gone with her, if Jade doesn't make it...I'll never forgive myself" Beck said sincerely. "I was supposed to protect her"
"Beck, stop it, Jade wouldn't want you to talk like that" Tori exclaimed and the rest of the gang nodded but they couldn't convince Beck otherwise, he felt so guilty.
Suddenly they heard the voices of a couple in the hallway "Where is my daughter?" the female voice questioned rushed.
"Your daughter?" the lady questioned back.
"Yes, Jade West" the male voice confirmed and the gang stood up at Jade's name.
"Those must be Jade's parents" Tori commented.
"Indeed they are, Mr. and Mrs. West, this way" Sikowitz called them and Jade's parents immediately walked towards him and the gang.
"Beck, where is Jade? What happened?" Jade's mother questioned worriedly as soon as she saw him.
"Sikowitz told us she had an accident" Jade's dad commented.
"She didn't have an accident..." Sikowitz confessed.
"No, she didn't have an accident; she was kidnapped, tortured and nearly killed by a bunch of psychos" Beck informed, rage dripping from his voice.
"Oh god..." Jade's mother covered her mouth as her blue eyes got filled up with tears.
"What?" Jade's dad questioned not completely understanding.
"Jade West" A doctor walked towards them and everyone turned around quickly.
"Yes, yes how is she?" Beck immediately questioned and the doctor looked down.
"How's my daughter?" Mrs. West asked desperately.
"Jade lost so much blood, luckily Beck's donation was enough to keep her alive" the doctor informed and Beck's soul was relieved.
"That means she is okay?" Cat questioned.
"I wouldn't use the term okay, the blade fortunately didn't reach any organ but she's got a lot of other injuries, not severe enough to cause her death but definitely worthy of treatment, especially emotional" the doctor commented "That young lady was sadistically tortured, whoever did this to her either hates her so much or is completely sick, I mean we cleaned up all the blood in her body and she has the words 'whore' and 'pain' carved on her belly, she's got scars from arrows which is sick in her leg, both hands and tummy, there are also marks from cigarettes all over her arms and they burned her with something else but I can't tell what it was, she has marks from a whip on her back, legs and arms, some are more recent than the others and well, they obviously hit her because she has bruises" the doctor finished, each word he said was so hurtful for everyone but especially for Beck and for Jade's parents, they couldn't believe that a trip that was supposed to be fun ended up becoming a nightmare for their daughter.
"Can we see her?" Mrs. West questioned.
"She is still unconscious but yes, you can see her, just please no screaming or loud noises" The doctor ordered and everyone nodded, he showed them the way to Jade's room and they walked in quietly.
Beck walked towards the bed and stroke Jade's face softly as a few tears ran down his face, he was so happy to know she was alive but at the same so sad that she was in that situation. "Who did this to my daughter?" Mr. West questioned coldly while trying to hold his tears back after seeing his little girl lying in that hospital bed.
"A family" Cat answered "they're all crazy but the one who did most of the things is Erik"
"Erik?" He asked and Cat nodded.
"He is arrested and so is his family" Sikowitz informed.
"Jail... that isn't enough" Jade's dad exclaimed and Mrs. West looked at him confused.
"What are you thinking?" she questioned but he didn't respond he only kept staring at his daughter with deep pain and rage; he had to put that man through the exact same things he did to Jade.
Beck took the chair by the bed and held Jade's hand all the time, he wanted her to feel him and to realize she was safe now, Jade's parents and the gang had been on the couches but it was late now and nobody had eaten anything so the West's decided to invite them dinner.
Everyone but Beck left the room to go eat something but he just couldn't, he wanted to be with Jade all the time, he wanted to make sure she was okay every second and especially he wanted to be there when she woke up, he needed to see her bright beautiful eyes and her gorgeous smile.
Beck was falling asleep on the edge of the bed still holding Jade's hand when suddenly it started moving which made him react immediately, he looked her face closely waiting for her to open her eyes and see him. "Jade!"
