Chapter 12 Pay Back

When Jake hung up the phone After Troy said his I loves yous, he just looked at Troy. Jake thought that he would leave Troy alone for him to think before he would kill him, besides the way Troy was looking it looked like he was about to pass out because of the pain and all the blood he lost but in Jake's head he didn't care if Troy was suffering or not. Jake looked at Troy one more time and went out the door. He called Phil to tell him the news on when he would have him plan set in motion on when he would Kill Troy. So he dialed Phils number.

"Hello" Phil said

"Phil it's Jake, I am going to wait about an hour before I go back in there and kill Troy. So I got sometime to talk." Jake said.

"ok How are you going to kill him, did you let him talk to his wife." Phil said into the phone.

"Yeah I let him talk to his wife, man shes a bitch, I cant believe I ever wanted her back and have a family with her. Gabriella pissed me off and I did something to Troy that she wont forgive herself for. I stabbed Troy in the leg and he is really bleeding hes probably passed out right now because when I left the room he looked in rough shape worse before. I was thinking of shooting him in the head but now I just think I should let him suffer and just let him die on his own because it would be a lot more suffering for him and a lot more fun for me. What would you do in this situation." Jake said

"I would go through his stuff he has got to have a picture of his wife and kids take the pictures and show him the picture and taunt him like this will be the last time you see your family because I am going to kill you and put a gun to his head and shoot him or torture him more until he begs he wants to die. you could ask if he had any last words and if he does then shoot him or stab him either way I would be satisfied." Phil said. Jake went into the kitchen and put the knife on the kitchen counter that he stabbed Troy with and sat on the chair.

"Sounds good man thanks so much for all your help you have been a good friend to me and I am glad we met in prison." Jake said.

"Im glad too, I never liked Troy he was always in the news about Basketball and hes like a celebrity because I have been watching the news and tv and there all over him about were he is and if he will ever get resued in time. But the way you have pulled everything no one knows where Troy is." Phil said.

"I know I am surpised I even remembered this place, I used to come here when my mom was still alive. I just loved watching my dad die and I cant wait to see the face Troy makes when I kill him. But like I said I will give him a couple more minutes before I go back in there again." Jake said he looked at the closed door where Troy was. he did not feel gulity what so ever. He wanted Gabriella to pay for what she made him into and that was a monster if Jake couldn't have Gabriella then Troy couldn't ever have her.

"Call me when you get done with the killing, give me a time because if something happens I have your back you know that." Phil said.

"About 7:00 call my cell and if I don't answer call 5 minutes later and if I don't answer then come to the cabin even though nothing will happen to me. I am stronger and much bigger than Troy so I am not too worried about him. I will of course keep him tied up. don't want him to be untied and have him attack me but that wont happen because he cant hardly even keep his eyes open anymore good for me." Jake said.

"Yeah totally I will do just that. I got to go now and let you do your work. good luck and I will talk to you later my friend." Phil said.

"Talk to you later too bye." Jake said and then he hung up the phone. Jake had his gun in his pocket and took it out and looked at it. and got up from his seat and was headed for the room leaving his knife on the kitchen counter

Back in the cop car with Gabriella Chad and the police officer. Gabriella couldn't keep still she was constantly moving in her seat and Chad didn't say anything all he wanted was to get his friend to safety and back hom where he belongs.

"I know that you are a police officer and you can speed and stuff but can you drive a little faster we need to get to Troy like now before it's too late. I need to know that he will be fine. I cant loose him." Gabriella said tears coming down her eyes Chad saw Gabriella broken so he sat closer to her and hugged her tight Gabriella hugged Chad back.

"Mrs. Bolton I am going as fast as I can, I have the sirens going on and I am speeding away. I know this is really hard for you and you want to make sure Mr. Bolton will be ok and he will as long as i keep up this speed we will be fine." the officer said.

"I'm sorry it;s just I cant loose him. What would I do without him Chad, hes my life the father of my children I love him so much and I cant just sit here and do nothing I am going to do anything in my power to get Troy the help he needs." Gabriella said still hugging Chad. Chads heart broke to see his little sister as Chad calls her in so much pain. He just hoped his brother/best friend was ok, he would never forgive himself if something worse happened to Troy.

"This is all my fault if i wouldn't have left Troy after practice he would have been there with you the whole time." Chad said Gabriella shook her head and looked at Chad.

"Chad this is not your fault. Troy even said so himself you even if you were there with him Jake would have gotten him another day when he was alone so please for Troy's and my sake don't blame your self the person to blame in all of this is Jake I just wish he would die because then all of this will be over." Gabriella said.

"I heard what Jake did to Mr. Bolton so if he is armed when we get there and he wont do as we say we might have to stop him by shooting him because crazy people like him have to be stopped before anyone else could get hurt." The officer said.

"What if Troy you know would he go to prison." Gabriella asked. she needed to know.

"in this case he probably wouldn't." The officer said Gabriella just nodded her head and looked at Chad. Chad looked like he was going to cry. Gabriella saw the tears in his eyes and held him tight.

"I don't know what I would do without him either we have been brothers since pre-school and I saw his good side and his bad side I just pray to God Troy doesn't give up on himself." Chad said

"I hope he doesn't either Chad." Gabriella said after there conversation everything was quiet until the officer said they were almost there.

Troy was out the minute Jake hung up the phone. Troy was dreaming but he could hear 2 voices familiar voices telling him stuff but at first he couldn't hear them but he wanted to know the voices and he wanted to know who they were. Troy was still out of it but he realised he was dreaming and that he was still alive and Jake didn't kill him yet. Troy could hear the 2 voices get closer he walked to see 2 girls standing next to each other. he got closer to them and found that the two familiar voices were none other than Gabriella and his Cousin Emma. Troy was happy to see his cousin. Gabriella and Emma saw Troy and smiled at him. and they started to talk.

"Hey Little bro whats up." Emma said Troy would always call Emma his big sister and Emma would always call Troy her little brother because they were really close and they thought of each other as siblings.

"I'm not doing to well, where am I." Troy asked. Emma walked closer to Troy and hugged him.

" Gabriella and I are in your dream telling you that yeah you are in rough shape but you have to be strong and fight." Emma said. Gabriella walked over To Troy and also hugged him. Troy didn't want to let Gabriella go because he loved toughing her and this could be the last time he could feel her touch even though he was dreaming and none of this was real but if felt like it was because he could smell Gabriella's favorite perfume he loved and that was Pink Sugar.

"I lost a lot of blood and I don't know if i can get out of the ropes I have been trying for the last 2 weeks and I just cant seem to get them free." Troy said.

"don't worry Troy Emma and I are going to help you through this. i will be right by you, Emma will be right by you and we will help." Gabriella said. looking at Troy. Gabriella took her hand and put it on his cheek.

"I'm dreaming but how does this feel like it's real." Troy said.

"because your mind wants to believe it is real and it is all you got to do is believe Troy and we will be there to protect you. I may be dead but I at least got to help my cousin out of this mess. When you wake up your hands will be free and you will be able to get out. your strong Troy and I know you can do it just remember I will always love you little brother." Emma said.

"I will always love you too Big sister." Troy said and a couple seconds later Emma disappeared in thin air. now Gabriella and Troy there.

"You need to wake up Troy, you don't have much time, Jake will be back soon." Gabriella said Troy took his hand and took a strand of Gabriellas hair out of her face.

"I don't want to leave you here. I love you so much." Troy said. Gabriella leaned in and hugged Troy tightly to her and had tears coming down her eyes.

"You wont leave me Troy. All I want is for you to be save and you will you just got to believe in yourself and do what is right. All you got to do is wake up. I love you too Troy." Gabriella said Troy and Gabriella looked at each other Troy leaned in and gave Gabriella a gentle but passionate kiss on the lips. they let go of each other and the last thing Troy heard was wake up.

Troy jolted from his spot, Troy opened his eyes and realised he was still in the cabin. Troy at first forgot where he was for a moment. Troy needed to see if the ropes were untied and too his surprise they were he didn't know if Emma was really there with him or if he just Imagined that she was with him but his hand were untied. Troy had to save himself and thats what he was going to do and Troy losened all of his ropes so he could get free. he winced in pain a lot because of his ribs but he wouldn't let that stop him. But before he could get any further Jake came in the room with his gun in his hand ready to shoot Troy.

"So Troy what does it feel like to you when you know your time has ran out." Jake said with a smile.

"I don't know feels damn crappy to me." Troy said Jake looked at Troy's phone and looked through the pictures of his family on his phone. This made Troy mad no one ever looks at his family like that and he found out that he got this erg of energy.

"Any last words you want to say before I kill you." Jake said. Troy nodded his head.

"Come closer." Troy said and Jake went closer. "Closer." Troy said again and Jake was now on his knees same level as Troy.

"So let me ask you again any last words before I kill you." Jake said and Troy nodded his head again. Troy didn't know where all of this energy came from but he liked it. Troy looked right in Jake's eyes.

"PAY BACK!" Troy said and took his head and hit as hard as he could into Jake's head so Troy head buded him. Jake groaned and fell to the ground. Troy took this opportunity to get the ropes off of him. Troy groaned in pain as well when he head budded Jake but he couldn't think about it now so he got out of the ropes and got up but fell to the ground because of his leg. Troy yelled in pain and he crawled to the kitchen area. Jake realised what Troy had done and he got up from his spot and saw that Troy was crawling towards the kicthen.

"You cant run from me Troy." Jake yelled. Troy got up from his spot and was headed for the door but got slammed in the back by Jake. Troy yelled in pain again. he needed to fight back so he truned to Jake and punched him in the face. But it wasn't hard enough because Jake slammed Troy against the kitchen counter and put his 2 hands around Troy's neck and started Joking him. Troy couldn't breath he thought that this was it and he was done for. Troy looked around for something to hit Jake with and in the couner of his eye he saw Jake's knife Troy was reaching for the knife and trying to hold on he could tell he could pass out again in any second. But he wouldn't give up so he leaned harder into the counter and he reached the knife and got it. Without even thinking Troy took the knife and stabbed Jake with the knife in his stomach and dug in deeper. Jake let go of Troy's Throat. Troy took the knife out of Jake's Stomach and Jake fell to the ground. his blood was everywhere. Troy was in shock but soon fell to the floor and started coughing. Jake's phone rang Troy didn't get it. then 5 minutes later it rang again. Troy didn't know if Jake was dead or not so he went towards Jake and looked for a pulse nothing Troy tried to see if he was breathing and there was nothing. Troy realised that he just killed Jake to save his own life. Troy was still in a daze that he didn't hear the front door open. just as Troy thought this whole thing was over his hope came crashing down because Phil was looking at Troy like he wanted to kill him.

"What the hell did you do!" Phil said Troy was terrified he didn't have the strength anymore to defend himself at that moment he new he was going to die.

Well there you have it I hope you enjoyed it. So Troy killed Jake please guys don't be mad at me for it. he did it in self defence and if he wouldn't have done it he would have gotten killed. so thanks Erin for that Idea.
