Chapter 10

Payson's POV

I was waiting for Lauren at her cabin but she's not there. Where is she? I walked over to Nicky and asked him where she is. He didn't know either. I asked Austin and Kaylie and they didn't know where she was either. Maybe she did something and Tyler shut her up like they did to me. I don't know if she would go into the cabin by herself. I headed to Tyler to ask where his cousin went.

"Tyler, where's Lauren?"

"She's in the next village. She went with some other villagers."

"She couldn't just leave," I was confused.

"She'll come back soon. They just went to trade something."

"Alright, thanks."

"Anytime."

He's lying. He shut her up, like he did with me. His obsession was clear from the beginning and no one saw it but me. Now Lauren saw it and she's in trouble. Tyler's going all the way and he hurt Lauren. Lauren – his own flesh and blood – and he still hurt her. There's nothing sicker than that.

I should tell Kaylie and I need her help to go to the place where Tyler could keep Lauren away from us. Where could it be though? It could be anywhere. He could build another village just for her, keep her out of our reach but he couldn't have done that all in a matter of a couple hours. She must be in the village. But everywhere is so obvious except…his place. When I figured that out I rushed to Kaylie's.

I knocked on her cabin door and she opened it.

"Pay?"

"Lauren's missing and I know where she is."

Kaylie's POV

Payson knows where she is? I doubt that she knew but I'm just afraid of what might happen and what could happen. Payson is a smart girl and she knows what's she doing. I trust her but I trust a lot of people but I have to choose now. So, whom am I going to choose? Payson, my best friend, or Tyler, a guy that broke my heart five years ago? Payson, I choose Payson.

"What do we do?"

"We have to get to Tyler's cabin. Right now, Tyler and his friends are heading to the doctor to get a 'check up' and then do their chores."

"So how long do we have?"

"We have quite a long time. If Lauren is not there then where should we look?" Payson asked.

"That's a problem for later, but now it's time to get Lauren out of wherever she may be."

"But do you believe this village is fake?" Payson asked me the same question.

"I'm convinced but not 100%"

"That's a progress so let's go."

Nicky's POV

Where's Lauren? She's hasn't been seen anywhere. I'm getting worried and Payson was asking me about her too. This isn't a coincidence is it? I should really head to see Austin. He is doing his chores, digging by the lake. Ha! I should be dreaming if I saw Austin planting crops and digging like a farm boy. The press would have a hell of a day for this news! Might as well call him Clark Kent.

"Austin, no wait…Clark Kent!"

"Hey Lois Lane, what up?" he teased.

"So have you seen Lauren?"

"No. Not since this morning. Why?" he asked.

"So where is she?"

"No idea dude, but where are the other musketeers?"

"They went to look for Lauren…" I began.

"Oh. My. God!"

"They are going to look for Lauren!"

We both left the lakeside and rushed to find Lauren and the other girls.

Kaylie's POV

We walked into the cabin and looked around. Something really smells. It smelt like something had died in here. This place is really stinky; a stink bomb must've gone off. These guys need to be girlier and clean this place up. It's horrific. Payson was walking around to find some evidence: if there's a basement that Lauren could be trapped in or anything that would lead us to Lauren. Nothing.

"There's no evidence to where Lauren is trapped."

"Don't give up yet, Pay," I encouraged her.

"Alright, but seriously if we don't get out of this place soon I think I'll be the one who died in here and is giving off this foul smell."

"Don't joke, Pay, let's keep looking."

Cling.

"What was that?" I asked.

"You stepped on it."

What is it? I don't know what could be underneath this weird looking rug. I would never have that hideous rug in my house. I lifted the rug and there was a handle that probably leads to the basement of the cabin. Payson and I lifted the old sofa off and lifted the rug off the door. It had a staircase leading to a basement. Score.

We both walked down the dusty stairs. Does anyone clean this place? I would love my personal cleaner here now. Ew, spiders. How can Payson be so calm? God, I wished I just found Lauren in the closet or something. Nothing disgusts me more than spiders crawling around.

"Where's Lauren?"

"Hello? Lauren?" I yelled.

Mmmmmm…Mmmmm!

"What was that?" I asked.

"Let's check it out."

Not a great idea!

We walked towards the mumbling and it was in a room, a dusty room. The basement was huge; it was connected to the other basements under every single cabin in the "village". We opened the door and saw the person we've been looking for. Thank God.

"Lauren!" Payson yelled.

"Oh my god, what happened?" I yelled.

"Let's get out first. Closed the door!"

Payson closed the door and we all rushed back the way we came in, with Lauren being dragged by the both of us. We closed everything, placed the sofa and rug back to place and closed the cabin's front door. We rushed to Payson's cabin so it's further away than any of our cabin. Thank god. I don't like spiders, dust and webs. Not my favourite thing.

"So what happened Lauren? And don't miss anything out," Payson asked.

"I went alone to find the evidence that Tyler wasn't taking his meds but I couldn't find anything about his meds trace and I think he flushed it down the toilet."

"And?" I asked.

"They walked in on me, James, I think hit me on the head with a hard object. They tied me and taped my mouth. Locked me into the basement. They told me something that I think you should hear."

"What is it? Important right?" Payson asked.

"Tyler told me he would do anything to get Kaylie to be his and won't stop at nothing to have her. He even locked me in a basement and hit me with a shovel. That hurts!" Lauren yelled.

I can't believe what I'm hearing. Am I deaf or just confused?

"I don't get it Lauren but carry on," I approved.

"Tyler hasn't been taking his meds at all. Before they left me in the basement Tyler told me that he wasn't let out of the rehab."

"Then?" Payson asked.

"He escaped out of rehab."

"WHAT?" Payson and I screamed.

"Yes. He did. James and Drew weren't his best friends from his younger years. I knew that before but I wasn't sure. I never heard Tyler mention any James or Drew in his stories when he came for family dinners so I was having suspicions."

"Why didn't you say anything?" I questioned.

"I didn't think it was a huge thing. Plus, I didn't want to make you guys worry."

"Then what happened?" Payson commanded.

"He flushed it down and never took it since rehab. I don't know how long he's been flushing his meds but I'm pretty sure it's been at least a month because they escaped last month!" Lauren claimed.

"He was lying all along so does that mean this village is too?" I questioned.

"Now? Really? Now you realize and believe me? When Lauren was trapped under the basement?"

"Sorry alright?" I apologized.

"We should stop with all the blaming and start leaving this place," Lauren told us.

"Agreed," both Payson and I said in unison.

Tyler's POV

We finished our chores and checkup and started heading back to the cabin to bring Lauren, my cousin, some food. We brought her chicken and mashed potatoes. I hope she likes crabs. We walked in and moved the sofa and lifted the rug. We were telling jokes about Austin and his bling bling gang again. I didn't think the plan of trapping Lauren would be so much fun.

We walked down the stairs and talked about how to keep Kaylie in the zone of not believing a thing that Lauren said or Payson, mostly Lauren now since we have trapped her and hit her.

"So if she ever get out then what will we do?" Drew asked.

"She won't," I said.

"Tyler, wait. Stop," James stopped us.

"What?"

"Why are you doing this?"

"Because Kaylie is mine in the first place," I answered.

"Not a good enough reason."

"What else?" I asked.

"Nothing from you," James then turned around to Drew, "Why are we doing this?"

"We owe our lives to him. He got us out of rehab and we used his money to come to Hawaii. Where we found the girls," Drew answered.

"Perfect timing as always right?" I told them.

"Don't you feel bad?" James asked.

"No I don't Moore. Do you?"

"A bit. Why?"

"Because," I swung my fist and punched his face, "I say you stop being a chicken and do this with me. Or else…?"

"Or else?" James asked. That's my last nerve.

"I'll kill you. Don't make me."

There was a silence between us and we kept on walking to the door that Lauren was kept in. We opened it and no one was there.

"WHERE IS SHE?" I was screaming.

"How is that possible?" Drew asked.

"GOD DREW WHY ARE YOU SO STUPID?"

"What?" James questioned.

"FIND HER OR SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS!"
