Tommy almost did a double take as he saw her at the table. Her hair looked beautiful and she waved at him to come over.
It can't be, it just can't he thought to himself.
He walked closer to her to get a closer look. It was her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Lori woke up she could feel something next to her moving. She turned to see what it was and decided that was a bad idea as she saw black spots and felt a wave of dizziness.
"Glad to know your awake," came a young male voice from her left, "we'll start soon."
"Oh Yeah! You creep, my friends and some cops are trying to find me right now," she said, hoping it would scare him, "besides whatever your gonna do…what are you going to do?"
"Well I guess I cold tell you since your are going to be dead…." he replied, "You are going to be part of a wonderful sacrifice. You and the two others will be given to my lord Draci. Then he will become powerful by feeding on the women of Pleasantville"
Lori heard someone moan as one of the strangers woke up. No, not a stranger, it was Natalie. She seemed to recognize to other lady there.
"What are you?" she Lori asked bitterly, "A sexist?"
"No…. Not really," the voice replied, "I just want revenge on all the woman who have rejected me and will reject me."
"Yeah! Well my boyfriend will save me," she said and hoped she was telling the truth.
He thought about that for a second, "Only if he can find you in time."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey Tommy, " she said to him as she sat ion the Factory.
"Hey! How's college?" he responded nervously. "I didn't know you
were in town."
Nick had his senses heightened still trying to hear Natalie's or
Lori's heartbeat. Come to think about it, he hadn't heard from Tracy all
morning. He wondered who this girl was that Tommy was so nervous about. He
did hear a familiar person walk up behind him and relaxed when he saw
Merton.
Tommy was talking while thinking about the time when Stacey had
been here. She had gone to college back east and he hadn't seen her for a
while. Her being here made him even more nervous about Lori missing. Would
other girls start being kidnapped? For the time Stacey was here this year
she had come close to finding out his secret. He was deep in thought when
he remembered about Detective Knight. He turned around finding him and
Merton having a conversation.
Probably talking about who Stacey is Tommy thought to himself.
"So who is she?" Nick asked Merton.
"Oh, Stacey," he said trying to think of how to explain.
"Why is he so nervous?" he asked.
"Well, they used to go out off and on, but she almost found out his
secret," Merton explained.
"Oh, Now I understand," he said, " but I believe we have go be going."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Lori woke up again she was chained to a wall in what looked
like a dungeon. The pain was receding in her head as her fuzzy vision went
away. The other two women were just waking up too. The kid was setting up
candles around a oval stone on a block of stone.
I hope Tommy gets here soon she thought.
"The ceremony is almost ready, " the boy said, " Just another 45
minutes and revenge will be mine!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tommy stopped again and smelled the air. There it was, Lori's
scent. He picked up on it and walked into an alley.
"She was here," he told Merton and Nick. " I can smell her."
It can't be, it just can't he thought to himself.
He walked closer to her to get a closer look. It was her.
