Hey my lovely little readers!! How are you all? I really want to know! Let me know in your reviews:)

So, here is chapter twenty five of Take A Chance. Don't think that you are reading a previous chapter, it's just that i'm going from Haylie's POV when she gets kidnapped. I hope this made sense :S

Disclaimer: Don't own a damn thing...cries

Last Time:

"Gabs, do you want us all to stay here with Troy and Calum?" Taylor asked.

"That would be good. I'm going to see what i can do at work," Gabriella turned back to Troy, "I'll be back soon, baby. I love you, and tell the kids i love them too," She kissed him lovingly.

"Hurry back, Gabs, I love you," Troy smiled weakly.

"Don't worry, Troy. I'll be fine. If you hear anything, let me know," With that, she fled from the house, in tears from the pain of seeing everyone so upset, so soon after Zeke and everything else. Gabriella couldn't help but think, why everyone who she loved had so much bad luck, but she was determined to fix this. She hasn't let anyone from the Jones family get one up on her in a long time, and she wasn't about to let them now...

"I'm the size of a house!" Sharpay whined to Gabriella as they went looking for Maternity clothes with the other girls, including Hannah, Ryan's wife.

"You are? What about me?" Haylie cried out.

"You guys are just as far along as each other, right?" Kelsi questioned.

"Yes! Are you thick?" Sharpay screeched.

"No, i was just wondering. Besides, if you both are just as far along as each other, can you please stop arguing over who is bigger?" Kelsi snapped. Both Sharpay and Haylie were six and a half months pregnant, or near enough.

"Fine," Both Sharpay and Haylie mumbled.

"Come on guys, let's go in here," Gabriella encouraged, pulling everyone into her favourite shoe store, Jimmy Choo.

Haylie intended to follow on with the rest of them, but before she could, she felt a hand close around her mouth and pull her away. Then, she fell asleep. The chloroform that had been put over her mouth had knocked her out. She woke up three hours later, in a cold, dark place. Her arms were tied behind her back and her legs were bound together aswell. She tried to scream, but found that she couldn't. Instead, she sobbed silently until some light came into the room. She felt her gag fall down around her neck and Haylie panted heavily. She looked around but could not see the person who was in the room with her, "Where am i? Who are you?" She demanded.

"Shhh," The person replied.

"Tell me where i am!" Haylie screamed.

"All will be revealed," The voice soothed.

"No! Let me go! Untie me and let me go!" Haylie yelled as she tried her hardest to break free of her restraints.

"Struggling will not help. You are going to die here," The voice was getting closer.

"Like hell i am! Let me go, now!" Haylie said defiantly.

"You shouldn't waste your breath, before the week is out, you will be dead," The voice laughed evilly.

"Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Haylie asked.

"Because i don't like Bolton's," The voice replied.

"What?" Haylie asked in confusion.

"I don't like you, i don't like your brother, I don't like his wife and i don't like your bastard child!" The voice screeched.

"What the hell did we ever do to you?" Haylie demanded.

"You tore my family apart! That's what you did!" The woman left the shadows and got right in Haylie's face. Her own face was evil and distorted. She was completely deranged.

"Y-you," Haylie stuttered.

"Congratulations genius. Did you have any idea?" Karen Jones smirked.

"Shut the hell up," Haylie spat angrily.

"Why don't you?" She grabbed hold of Haylie's hair and pulled on it harshly, "I'm going to kill you, Bolton, and there is nothing you can do to stop me,"

"Gabriella will find me, Calum will know where you have taken me," Haylie said defiantly.

"Don't you dare talk about those traitors in front of me!" Karen's eyes burned with hate.

"They are good people, we are good people! What did we do to deserve this?" Haylie questioned.

"Gabriella and Troy Bolton ruined my baby boy's life. Daniel and Gabriella were happy before your damn brother came along and tore their marriage apart! As if that wasn't enough, you had to swoop in and turn Calum against his whole family! Is that enough reason?" Karen screeched bitterly.

"Troy did no such thing, nor did i! Gabriella and Daniel were far from happy! Your perfect son was cheating on her and beating her! She left because she hated him! It's not a crime to fall in love, Karen! Just like Calum and I fell in love! How could you do this to him?"

"Enough of your lies!" Karen pulled at her hair, "My Daniel WAS the perfect son! He didn't deserve to die! He didn't deserve to have a scheming bitch like Gabriella Montez as his Wife!" Karen screamed.

"Gabriella is an amazing woman! My brother is the best guy in the world, and believe it or not, but CALUM IS THE PERFECT SON! Not Daniel," Haylie argued with her.

"Calum is a traitor!"

"Calum is the best guy in the world! Thank God that he isn't like any of you psychos!" Haylie physically spat in Karen's face.

Karen slapped Haylie harshly around the face, "Don't talk about us that way! You don't know anything, you hussy!"

"I know plenty! I know that Daniel was a good for nothing loser, i know that your husband is a liar and i know that you are a psychotic bitch! Calum deserves better than you!" Haylie insisted.

"Shut up! JUST SHUT UP! You are going to die, Bolton! You can insult me and my family all you like, but you and your useless child are going to die! Then, Gabriella and Calum will be next. I'll let your useless brother suffer before i finally kill him too. Then and only then will Troy Bolton and I be even!" Karen finished by slapping Haylie one more time, "One week, that's all. Say your goodbyes to that wretched child and then we'll get this over with,"

"Screw you! I hate you!" Haylie screamed.

"Oh my dear! Not half as much as i hate you,"

"You won't get away with this!" Haylie screamed before Karen pulled the gag up over her mouth again.

"Oh but i already have," Karen smiled sweetly, and Haylie began to scream under the cloth, unsuccessfully, "Scream all you want, no-on will find us, i've made sure of that," With that, Karen left the room and Haylie sobbed.

"We need a list of places that Karen could have taken Haylie to. Childhood homes, family holidays, stuff like that," Gabriella mumbled. Allison was listening intently.

"You're right," Allison nodded, "But how?"

"I already spoke with Calum earlier. He never knew anything about his mother. He can't help us make a list," Gabriella shook her head violently.

"What about the husband?" Allison suggested.

"He'll never co-operate with us," Gabriella disregarded the suggestion, "Damn it!" Gabriella groaned before hitting her head softly on her desk in frustration.

"You should go home, it's nearly one in the morning," Allison spoke up.

"I can't yet. You go ahead if you'd like," Gabriella shook her head.

"I'm not leaving you up here alone, it's creepy," Allison shivered.

"Too right," Gabriella snorted, "Thanks for that, by the way,"

"No problem," Allison smirked, "Now, all we need to do is somehow find a way of making a list of all the possible places to look for Karen Jones. We've checked the house where she held Calum, that's deserted. We need to think of more places,"

"Obviously," Gabriella drawled, "Damn it! Why did Daniel have to go and get himself killed? He would be really helpful right about now!"

"Wait! That's it!" Allison exclaimed.

"What's it?" Gabriella questioned.

"Daniel. He's the key," Allison mumbled.

"You're going to have to elaborate," Gabriella snapped.

"He was your husband, surely you spoke about his parents? Or maybe he had photos from his childhood, that kind of thing," Allison explained.

"Allison you are a genius!" Gabriella exclaimed happily before standing up and packing away her things.

"Where are you going?" Allison questioned.

"Home, to look through some boxes that haven't been opened since i left Daniel Jones," With that, Gabriella left the room, slightly happier than when she entered it. She only hoped that Haylie was just as alive as Gabriella felt.

So? Review please! Hope you all like it!!!
