Here's the next chapter, I hope you all enjoy this one.


Troy was being interviewed by the police as they tried to peice together where Gabriella could be taken to. Sharpay stood by so he could help keep Troy calm with all the police asking him questions. Zeke was being interviewed in the kitchen by another officer.

"I know you may not want to hear this but was your wife seeing someone?" the dective, Dective Martin, asked Troy.

"My wife is eight months pregant." Troy snapped at him annoyed. "If you would just shut up with all the questions, I can tell you who kidnapped her!"

"Sir, you need to calm down. I know this is difficult for you. But tell me who you think kidnapped your wife."

"Curt Anderson." Troy replied firmly.

"You are going to need concrete evidence." Officer Martin said. "He's the son of New York's District Attorney. He is almost untouchable. Whatever you got, his father will make disappear."

"This guy has been stalking her all year. He's started fights with me, he's broken into our home and left messages on our wall." Troy explained angrily. "I'm telling you he's the one who's got her and if you do not do something soon, I'll never see her or our daughter ever again!"

"Troy, you have to calm down." Sharpay said. "Yelling won't get anything done."

"Well, explaining useless information is not going to help me out either. So, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go out and look for Gabriella." Troy said grabbing his car keys.

"Troy!" Sharpay yelled after him.

"Let him go, Ma'am." Officer Martin told her. "I'll send someone to follow him to make sure he doesn't do anything rash."


Gabriella began to slowly stir awake from her enduce sleep. Her eyes opened slowly and searched the unfamiliar surroundings. The room was made up to look like an actual bedroom. The only thing that gave the room away to its actual prison setting was the fact that Gabriella was handcuffed to the headboard of the bed she was resting on. Gabriella tried franticly to break her binding. She stopped sudden;y when she heard a door open. Her eyes widened when she saw Curt enter the room.

"Why are you doing this?" Gabriella screamed fearfully.

"I told you, if you had only gone out with me, I wouldn't have to go to this extreme measure." Curt said as he sat down next to her on the bed.

"So you drug me and kidnap me?"

"It was the only way. Don't worry, our baby was not harmed by it."

"Our baby?" Gabriella asked angrily. "It's my baby. My husband's child."

"I'm your husband, at least I will be." Curt answered. "And if you do not behave, I'll make sure that your child never sees your face."

Gabriella gasped in fear as Curt threatened the life of her child. She closed her eyes and nodded tearfully agreeing with him to behave. Curt smiled and went to unlock her handcuffs. Gabriella sat up and rubbed her wrists. She sighed with relief when she felt her daughter moving actively within her.

"Please, just let me go back to my husband." Gabriella pleaded tearfully. "I need him, I love him."

"I know, that's why I didn't kill him."

"What?" Gabriella asked in fear.

"I didn't want to make you sad. I knew he hadn't caused really any harm to you, so I just couldn't bring myself to kill him. But, if you keep referring to Troy Bolton as your husband, I will have no choice but to kill him." Curt explained. "Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes." Gabriella mumbled.

"Great. I fixed this room up just for you. It has everything you could want. Movies, yoga to help you with the baby, snack. And a private bathroom all to yourself."

Gabriella listened with sadness as she thought about what Troy was doing right at that moment. She needed him so much to take her in his arms and tell her everything would be alright. Their due date was only three weeks away. What if he missed it? What if Troy never got the chance to see their daughter? For the first time in her life, Gabriella was scared about the future.


Troy had called his parents and Gabriella's mother and explained the events to them. The three of them boarded a plane and flew out as soon as they could. All three were terrified about what could happen because not only was their daughter missing, but also their grandchild. Coach and Mrs. Bolton were trying to comfort a frightened Ms. Montez as she worried about her only child and soon to be grandchild.

"Why would someone kidnap her?" Ms. Montez asked her son in law's parents. "What did she ever to anyone?"

"It will be alright, Maria." Coach Bolton said. "Troy's out looking for her right now. The police are looking for her, as well as most of the basketball team."

"But she is due in three weeks. What happens if something goes wrong and there is nobody there to help her?"

"You can't think like that. You have to stay positive. We will find Gabriella and soon we'll be holding our granddaughter in our arms." Mrs. Bolton explained.

"You're right." Ms. Montez agreed tearfully. "I just need to stay positive and everything will be fine."


The next afternoon, Troy, his parents, and Ms. Montez were in the police station. Troy had been up all night and refused to rest at all. His father handed him a cup of coffee to help him out. Ms. Montez was sitting in a chair looking at a picture of her and Gabriella together on Gabriella's wedding day. Officer Martin walked into the room and sat down.

"Here's what we can do, we can have a press conference pleading the kidnapper to bring Gabriella back." he explained. "We generally use women in times like these because of the emotional effect they have on people. Ms. Montez, we would like for you to speak at the press conference to try and see if whoever has your daughter will release her. Can you handle this?"

"I would do anything toget my daughter back." Ms. Montez stated firmly.

"Alright then, I'll go set everything up."
