I searched everywhere for her, the entire theme park. There was no way that she could have got the exit before me and I checked every ride, her scent was no where. I walked slowly back to where Charlie and Harvey were looking, the three of us had been at it for only thirty minutes but it felt like an eternity.
"Did you find her?" I asked hopefully when I reached them. They both glared at me.
"Yes Blake we did, we're just hiding her in our pockets. What does it look like?" She answered, sarcasm dripping from her words. I ignored her remark and sighed loudly.
"I can't believe she's gone. What the hell happened to her?" I threw my hands up in the air, exasperated.
"It's not a question of what; it's a question of whom." Harvey said simply and I stared at him, as did Charlie.
"You think someone took her?" She asked him and he shook his head.
"I don't think, I know. I caught a scent of a very old friend of mine earlier but I wasn't sure until just now, when I saw a certain person in the ticker collectors memories." He said wisely and I grabbed his shoulders.
"Look jackass! Don't piss me off even more because I'm NOT in the mood! Who. Took. Her." I shoved him back and he stumbled back a few steps, I expected him to charge me but he just looked at me sympathetically.
"The people who took her are…"
I could just end it here as a very short chapter but I'm bored and I love you all!

Argh, I feel like crap and I can't see! To top it all off, I just had a fight with Blake over god knows what. I finally realised that my head was lolled over to one side so I lifted it up slowly.
"Mow um hoof!" my moan was muffled by a horrible tasting bit of cloth inside my mouth. I tried to move my lips and soon came to the conclusion that I'd been gagged with dirty dishcloth and masking tape. Ew!
"Hi chick, we're gonna let your blindfold loose now, we've tried to make you as comfortable as possible so you'll probably know where you are." A sickly sweet voice hissed in my ear. It was definitely a guy and I was sooo gonna kick his nuts as soon as I got free. Oh, did I mention I was tied up too, tightly I might add!
A pair of extremely cold hands worked at the knot on the back of my head and after a few seconds the bit of black cloth covering my eyes fell onto my neck.
I was back in Charlie's England 'flat', what the hell!?! As my eyes adjusted to the dim light, I saw were in the front room and I was bound to a kitchen chair that was situated in the very centre of the room.
I took a good look at my kidnappers face… yes; it was kinda obvious that I'd been kidnapped! There were three of them, all guys and quite big ones too.
Two were about Emmett's height and build with dark hair and one was slightly shorter and slimmer with black hair. They both had… red eyes, the same colour as Blake's when he lost control.
"And now we're gonna take your gag off and you're gonna tell us where he is, okay darling?" The short one spoke in that sickly sweet voice as the buffest one stepped forward and ripped the duct tape off my mouth, I whimpered quietly at the stinging pain. He winked at me before pulling the bit of cloth out of my mouth.
Now, I may have been scared beyond belief, but I wasn't stupid. I knew if I told them about Blake then they'd kill me and have it over with as they were without a doubt, vampires. Right now, that was my only bargaining chip so I decided to play dumb.
"Tell you about whom? Where am I anyway?" I half whimpered, sounding like a scared little girl. Good!
"You know very well who, you're in his apartment! Now tell us everything you know!" the dark one in the corner growled. Ooh, moody!
"I've never been here before in my life but if you'll just let me go then I promise I won't tell the police." I spat out just before the small one struck me across the face with the back of his hand.
"Jesus Christ!" I cursed, spitting out some blood. My life was officially over now, they were gonna kill me! They laughed.
"I told you we should have brought my sister; we'd have this done already." The small one sneered; he was getting on my last nerve.
"We could have but she'd have got carried away, you know how she is." The growley one from the corner grinned cruelly.
"Anyway, now come on sweetheart. We'll let you go as soon as you tell us where your little boyfriend is, we won't hurt him… much." He said and they all cackled like hyenas again.
"Screw you! Who the hell are you people anyway, you freak's!!!" I screeched before the large one hit me square in the ribs. Mr. Growley knelt next to me and hissed menacingly into my ear.
"Now listen, we don't like being called freaks, next time you do, you'll be wishing you were dead, okay?" I nodded, my jaw set and my eyes staring straight ahead at the wall. Come on Blake, where are you?
"So where is he?" the short one asked again. I turned my head and gave him a twisted smile.
"Are you a mind reader because that's exactly what I was just wondering." I said slowly and he grimaced before whipping a blade out of his pocket and pushing it against my throat.
"We're not playing games anymore, little girl. We're gonna find him eventually, and all you have a choice of is whether you die slowly… or very slowly. So I'm gonna ask you one more time." his voice was deep and deadly, I ought with all my might not to gulp as I'd probably end up slitting my own throat.
"Okay, I'll tell you one thing." I made my voice sound scared and frantic and he pulled the blade back a centimetre.
"Tell us." He whispered in my ear.
"Go to hell!" I told him boldly and then I spat in his face. He wiped my saliva off his face slowly before plunging the blade straight into…
I'm so evil today. Mwa ha-ha! Anyway, on with the story!

I walked as fast as I could to the car and started it up, driving as fast as possible. I didn't care if the police were chasing me; I just had to get to her.
God, it was like I was reliving my own nightmare, only this time it was my soul mate and not my sister. That sadistic Volturi was gonna pay, I just had to get there in time. I was so caught up that I barely even noticed Harvey and Charlie in the backseat.
I pulled up to the curb of Charlie's building and jumped out, running up the stairs five at a time. I had sped all the way here at 90mph and parked illegally on the curb, and no-one even cared. Oh well!
I kicked the door open and ran in; I knew that they were here. They'd wanted me to find them so they chose the simplest place. I took in the dim scene around me. Three guys I used to know were stood around something; there was also a large knife stuck into the wall.
They all turned around and parted to show me what they'd got. Sat there, tied up in a chair was Laura. She was bound, gagged and had tears streaming down her face. I smelt the familiar woody scent of her blood and realised that they had been beating her.
"You're going to pay." I said quietly to the three men before pouncing on the one I remembered as John and throwing him back. Harvey and Charlie had got in too and we're taking care of Ron and Sam. Just after I left the Volturi, I met them in a cub. Sam's sister had a thing for me but I rejected her and killed one of their other friends. They'd wanted revenge for a long time.
I tore John's head off and threw it across the room. Then I made my way to Laura. I looked around again and saw that everybody was gone; Harvey and Charlie had probably gone to burn them.
I took her gag off and untied her quickly. Then I pulled her to me and let her sob into my chest. After a few minutes she pulled looking angry.
"Why did you even come, you were shouting at me?" she demanded and I pulled her back into my chest.
"I thought you didn't want to marry me because you looked unhappy and Charlie asked you if you were changing your mind…" I trailed off, looking into her eyes. Despite the tears and blood, which funnily enough I was able to ignore, she giggled.
"Yes I was thinking about changing my mind… about the colour theme! Charlie was over-reacting and I was twirling my ring and hoping you would come and save me." She giggled again and I smiled a little.
"So you really do want to marry me?" I asked, just to be sure.
"Of course!" she beamed and I devoured her with kisses. Then I remembered about what had just happened and pulled back to check her over. She didn't have any fatal injuries, just a bloody lip and a few bruises. It was still bad though.
"So shall we pack our stuff and get to a hotel then?" Charlie said, as the two of them came back in. We nodded and grabbed our stuff. The wedding was one week away and I couldn't wait.
A/n. Okay so I know that the ending to this chapter was a bit weedy but I'm tired and you guys are lucky to get this. I'm sorry I didn't update sooner but its opening night for my school production so I'm really tired! The next chapter will be the last unfortunately. :( but anyway… have any of you guys been to see new moon yet? I went to see it on Sunday!!! It was totally awesome. I cried on some bits, it was so sad. But the special effects were WAY better!
Please review, it'll make my day. And how many of you thought that the three guys were from the Volturi? Mwa ha-ha!!!!!
Anyway, I'm gonna be busy doing my Christmas shows for school all this week so there will be no more fanfic for me until Friday night, maybe Saturday because of the after party.
Peace guys!
