Anna POV
"Anna stay for wake for me I know it's hard, but you have to, alright?" I hear Nikki say, my eyelids drooping every two seconds. "I know I'm not a doctor but I play one on TV," she then says, laughing nervously. It makes me laugh too but then I flinch from the pain I'm in.
"I'm...trying," I manage to communicate to Nikki. I don't know how much longer I can hang on. Everything hurts too much. Them guys held nothing back. If this is how it's going to end then I want to see Roman one last time. I just need to tell him how much I love him. My life has been so much better since he came into it.
"Just hang on a little longer, ok? I'm sure John and Roman must be doing everything they can to get to us," says Nikki and I don't doubt that for a second. But sometimes you can try your best and things may not work out so well.
"Thanks," I say to Nikki and she smiles down at me, my head in her lap. She's been taking such good care of me. I know it's not been that long but no stranger would care for me the way she has. "Maybe...after this...we can...be friends," I say to her, struggling to say more than just a couple of words at a time.
"I would like that," says Nikki, running a hand through my hair which is effective in keeping me calm. "I could invite you over for a barbecue, we do good barbecues," she says, biting down on her lip, and I nod my head as tears fall down my eyes. Will I even make it out of here?
Nikki POV
My twin sister is probably worried about me, as well as my sweetheart John. I was just minding my own business at home as per usual when Hunter showed up. I figured he was looking for John to talk about an important case. I didn't think anything of it and invited him inside. He asked for water and while I was getting that he managed to drug me and bring me here. Yes it's hard to drug a vampire which is why he gave me a lethal dose compared to usual humans. Just as he got me here I woke up. Too bad I can't break this cage. It's made using a metal we can't exactly break. I have to hand it to him, he definitely thought this through.
I got thrown in here along with this sweet girl named Anna. When they brought her in here I was beyond shocked that they had broken her leg as well as busted a few ribs she has a broken leg as well as few busted up ribs. I know I'm not a real doctor but I know when something's broken. When John wasn't the Chief I was subjected to him having broken quite a few things. The he became a vampire and I did too so that made things a lot easier. It didn't mean he never broke anything. He has and I take care of him till it's fully healed. The worst is having to fix a dislocated shoulder. I know Roman and John must be looking for us both. I knew John was worried about this drugs case but I never thought things would escalate this far.
Liza POV
"Dean, when you eat food what does it taste like?" I ask Dean as we walk through the warehouse quietly. He gives me another look but I just shrug my shoulders. "Sorry, but I hate silences. Especially nerve wrecking one," I explain to him. He grabs a hold of my hand as we stay hidden behind a wall.
"Babe, I can;t get enough of your voice. But we're dealing with vampires who are can hear nearly everything. It's a good thing there's a railway track just above otherwise we would have been caught by now," says Dean and I start to feel bad. I just want to find Anna quickly and leave, that's all.
"Sorry," I apologize and he kisses the side of my head before looking back around the wall.
"By the way, it does have taste but it doesn't fill us up or anything. And neither do we get any benefit from eating it," answers Dean with a smile before telling me to stay put and going around the wall. He comes back within seconds and grabs my hand and leads me down a hallway before we enter a big room that has storage boxes nearly everywhere.
"She's not here," I say sadly, having looked around the room with my eyes. We hear the door and quickly run behind some boxes, realizing someone's coming in. Dean puts a hand up to his lips, gesturing for me to stay quiet. Well I'm not exactly going to yell for them to come find us. What do we do? Maybe they'll go away.
"You hear that?" I hear a guys voice. "That sounds like a heartbeat," he states as I start to panic and I know my heart's only going faster. Dean mouths 'calm down' to me but he should try being a human when vampires are around. It's not exactly a walk in the park.
"Look, we need to get going. The boss told us to hurry up," I hear another guy's voice. "It's probably just a raccoon or something. You know we've had lots of creatures come in here," he then says and I bite down on my lip hoping they'll leave.
"Alright, you go and I'll follow," says the first guy and I have to control myself from letting out a sigh. The other guy leaves and then it's just us and the first guy. I can hear him walking around and his footsteps get closer. Dean leads me around the shelves and we make sure to stay as far away from him as possible. "I know you're here," he says and Dean just shakes his head. He rubs my back assuring me that it will be fine. No it won't. That's why the minute Dean's grip loosens on me I quickly move out from between the shelves and do the most craziest thing ever.
"Alright you got me," I say, my hands in the air. I know Dean is probably freaking out right now about what I'm doing it but it's needed. We can't afford to waste anymore time in finding Anna.
"Well well well, look who we have here," says the guy, smirking in my direction. He come closer and starts to walk around me, giving me a look that makes me want to throw up. "I knew a human was here I just didn't think it'd be someone so hot," he goes on say and I roll my eyes at his comments. He stands opposite me but before he can even touch me his eyes widen and he falls to the floor. I look down at him and he look as if he's getting shrivelled up. I then look up and see Dean standing on the other side, his gun in the air.
"Wow, nice one," I say with an approving nod.
"Don't do that shit to me again Liza," says Dean. Walking over and looking way beyond mad. "You know this is exactly why I didn't want to bring you here. What were you thinking?" he then asks me.
"Look Dean, I know it wasn't the best idea but we need to get to Anna and he wasn't going to stop looking. So I offered myself up on a silver platter and that gave you a clear shot," I explain my side of things and I can see it in his eyes that he does think it's a good idea.
"Never again," orders Dean, pointing his gun at me.
"But we can do it again. Just make sure you shoot them in time!" I try to convince him, it's a pretty good idea. "You know it's a good plan," I then point out to him.
"Damn it, I hate it when you're right," says Dean, letting out a sigh before tugging on my hand as we start moving again. We leave that area and go to a different one, sneaking inside as we hear a voice. I think this person, I mean vampire, is talking on the phone. "Alright, go on," Dean says to me reluctantly. I peck his lips and wander off.
Brooke POV
I've taken out at least 2 vampires. And I don't even have a gun. Only because when I became a vampire the guys all decided to make sure to train me hard enough to make sure I can defend myself. Seth took it especially seriously because he won't have me in any danger. I keep myself hidden when I hear a familiar voice.
"Look, I-I just got lost," says Liza as I look in shock at her standing opposite a vampire. Dean's not much of a protector if he's left her and she's gotten caught. Man, that boy just doesn't think sometimes. He's lucky I'm around. "P-please don't hurt m-me," she begs, looking on the verge of tears. Since when did she lose her backbone? I climb on top of the shelves and wait till I know exactly where to get him from. I then jump down on top of him and crack his neck. "Holy shit!" says Liza, looking rather impressed. He's not dead till I take his heart out.
"What the hell are you doing here?" demands Dean, coming out from behind some shelves. Hang on, he was here the whole time? But he wasn't helping his girlfriend?
"Me? What the hell are you doing? Your girlfriend was stood opposite a vampire and you just watched?" I ask him in a disgusted voice.
"It was my idea," interrupts Liza. "We decided the best way to get them was to offer me up as live bait and for Dean to act like a sniper and shoot the shit out of them!" she says, adrenaline pumping fast through her veins. She's way too excited about all of this.
"What are you even doing here?" asks Dean and I then proceed to tell him my side of things. Both him and Liza listen and by the end they just look on in surprise. "Fuck. Ok, we need to find Anna and Nikki as quickly as possible whilst they bring Stephanie here. Hunter's not going to just hand over Anna," he says and I nod my head in agreement. We all walk off in the same direction, hoping to find Anna soon. If only this damn place wasn't too big.
Nikki POV
I sit there chatting off Anna's ear in an attempt to keep her awake when the door unlocks and it opens to reveal Batista coming in.
"Hello Anna and Nikki," says Batista with a smirk on his face. He comes over as I wonder what ever possessed John to keep him as a cop. The guy has a a funny feel to him.
"Go away," I say stubbornly, refusing to let him anywhere near Anna. They drug us, bring us here and lock us up in a cage and then act all cocky. I wonder if they would if I could be let out of here and show them what a real vampire is.
"Aw, not fond of me?" asks Batista and I look down at Anna, telling her to keep calm using my eyes. Batista is the one she can stand the least for some reason. I don't blame her though, he is creepy as fuck. "You know, maybe I will teach you a lesson," he then says and uses a key to open the padlock on the cage. This is my chance. But I can't do anything because he could hurt Anna. I'm not strong enough to overpower him by myself. Damn it. What do I do? Batista comes in and grabs my arm.
"No!" I say but he manages to drag me out of there and throws me on the ground. I get up slowly, thinking of what my next move should be. Batista grabs me and throws me into some boxes across the room. I grab one of the pieces and as soon as he comes for me I hit him on the face with it.
"Nikki," I hear Anna's voice and see her on her front, reaching out her hand. Her eyes close and I panic as I realize that she's passing out. Shit! All of a sudden I feel Batista's hands around my neck. I begin to move my arms around, trying to grab him as he chokes me. I hear a shot and Batista's grip loosens. He lets go of me and I bend over, my hands on my throat. I look up and see Batista fall to the floor, Dean standing not too far away.
"Dean," I say, relieved to see a familiar, friendly face. I then notice Brooke there too and send her a little wave. She quickly comes over to me and places a hand on my back as I cough.
Brooke POV
"Nikki, are you okay?" I ask her, patting her back and she nods her head. She gestures to Anna but I nod my head, knowing Liza's already checking her over. "That's Liza. She's Dean's girlfriend, a doctor and Anna's best friend," I inform her and I notice relief wash over in her eyes.
"I'm fine but please make sure Anna's ok. She's unconscious," says Nikki and I nod my head, going over to the cage Dean and Liza were in.
"Anna? Anna can you hear me?" Liza calls, looking panicked when she wasn't given a response.
"They broke her leg and ribs," Nikki says from where she's standing. Anger in all of us at what we're being told.
"Brooke, Nikki," starts Dean, looking between both of us. "I want you guys to stay here and be with Anna and Liza. Call an ambulance and give Liza anything she needs to help Anna in the meanwhile. I'm going to go see if Seth and Roman are here," he instructs us and we both nod our heads. Dean goes to leave but I follow him.
"Dean, make sure you all come back in one piece," I say and he nods his head. I then watch him and leave and go back to the girls. He better hurry up in ending this because if the ambulance comes beforehand then we're all dead.
Liza POV
"Anna?" I say her name again, my mind blanking on what I should do. I can't see her like this, it's difficult. But I need to make sure I do my best till an ambulance comes.
"Liza?" I hear Anna's voice and smile when I see her eyes open a little. "You're...here," she says but I can tell it's hard for her to say that.
"Yes, now please stay with me," I say, tears in my eyes. I look at Brooke who's busy on the phone calling an ambulance. "We'll get you help soon," I say to her.
"Tell...Roman that...I love him," she says breathlessly and I shake my head, refusing too.
"Tell him yourself," I say, trying to encourage her to stay with us.
"Tell the others...that I love...them too. And let...Dean know...his secret is safe...with me," she says, her eyes closing once more as I tell her to stay awake.
"Brooke please tell me that ambulance is coming," I say, looking up at her.
"It's on his way, don't worry she'll be fine," says Brooke and I nod my head making sure to do all the necessary checks that I need to. Oh Anna, please don't leave us. I hope the guys make every single one of those men pay for what they've done to Anna.
