and Annie is no where to be found. Jack has never stopped looking for her and dose not know if she is dead or alive.

JACK'S P.O.V.

"May we join you?" Fi asked. "Sure." Annie said moving to sit beside me and setting Elena's carseat on the floor. "What errand did you have to run?" Carey asked.

I looked over to Annie to see if she wanted to tell. Annie looked at me, let out a sigh and...

"We went to see the police to tell them that I was raped a year ago." Annie said looking down at Elena. "Raped?" Carey and Fi repeated. "Could we go somewhere where we c..can talk, so no one will hear about this?" Annie asked. "Let's go back to my apartment." I suggested.

It didn't take long to get to my apartment and after we entered my apartment, Annie began to tell her story...

"...dark, I reached for the door to unlock it. Then he put a knife to my throat, spun me around and pushed me to the ground(begins to sob)...befor I...I could get up...he pulled my pants d...down holding the knife to my throat and he raped me...I wanted to scream...I couldn't move...it seemed to g...go...on for...forever...the...then...h...he to...ld me...if I ever to...old..any...anyone...he wou...ld hunt m...me...down and k...kill me...a few we...eks later I...I fou...nd out I was pre...gnant." Annie said her head against my shoulder, she began to sob harder and her body began to shake.

Carey and Fi sat there in a shocked silence.

"That's why you left?" Fi asked and Annie nodded.

After a few minutes Annie stop sobbing and settled down.

"I...I left so he wouldn't kill me, but when Elena was born...something changed and I knew I had to come home. Even if only for a while..." Annie told Carey and Fi. "What do you mean 'if only for a while?'" Fi asked. "He's coming after me and he's to try and kill me." Annie told them and looked at me. "You're not leaving again?" I asked. "No, I'm home for good. If I live or die this is where I want to be, so if anything happens to me...Elena will have a home among my family and friends." Annie said looking at me.

I couldn't believe it! Annie had come home to stay!

"We will make sure he dosen't kill you." I said putting an arm around her shoulders. "How do you know?" Annie asked. "Because of us, your parents, my mom, Clu, Ned and Irene. This rapist will have to go through all of us and the police, before he can get to you." I assured her.
