Lucy comes downstairs to see her mom feeding the twins and fixing breakfast
for the rest of the family at the same time.
Annie: Morning Luce.
Lucy: (mumbles) Morning.
Annie: (looking concerned) Something wrong?
Lucy sits down at the bar.
Lucy: I didn't sleep very well last night.
Annie: Why?
Lucy: I don't know. Look, its no big deal.
Annie: Lucy if you ever need to talk...
Lucy: (stops her) I'm fine mom, really. I'm going to go hang out at the park for a while. Ruthie is still asleep. Where's Robbie?
Annie: Don't know. Have a good time sweetie.
Lucy grabs her sunglasses and heads for the park, deciding to walk since it's a lovely day. When she gets to the park she sees that hardly no one is there. Lucy sits on a nearby bench and sighs, gazing up at the clouds. Then someone comes up behind her.
Jake: Lucy?
Lucy turns around.
Lucy: HI Jake, what are you doing here?
Jake takes rope out of his pocket.
Jake: To give you this.
Jake ties Lucy's hands and drags her from the bench.
Lucy screams.
Lucy: Jack stop, what are you doing?
Jake: I'm sorry Lucy but I have orders. If you come quietly then nothing will happen.
Lucy: (angry) Whom are you doing this for? Let go of me.
Then a guy grabs Lucy, making her lose her grip on Jake.
Jake: Sorry Lucy.
Jake runs off before Lucy has time to protest.
Man: Well Miss Camden won't you come with me.
Lucy: (shouts) Who are you?
Man: I am someone that your father helped a long time ago. Now, if your a good little girl then there will be no punishment and your family will be safe, if you squeal, then that could mean bad things for your father and you wouldn't want that would you.
Lucy nods.
Lucy: (whispers) No.
Man: Good.
The man puts a rag over Lucy's mouth and Lucy feels herself relax and then everything goes black.
At the house:
Annie is cleaning the breakfast dishes. It is almost two o'clok and she wonders where Lucy is. Then the phone rings.
Annie: Hello.
St. Michaels; Annie, its st. Michaels. I'm afraid I have some bad news about Lucy...
At Glen oak hospital:
Hank comes up to Eric and Annie.
Eric: Hank what's happened to Lucy?
Hank: Police found her unconscious down by the high school with ropes tied to her hands. She has the drug Benzene in her system, a lot of it.
Annie starts crying.
Annie: Is she going to be all right?
Hank: I'm going to be straight with you, the next forty-eight hours are going to be very tough for Lucy. She is still unconscious. Eric you should have the other kids brought down here and call Mary and tell her what's going on. Mary may not get to see her sister if she doesn't come right away.
Annie: Are you saying Lucy is going to die?
Hank: Lets just see what the next forty-eight hours brings us.
Hank pats Annie on the shoulder and walks down the hall.
Annie looks up at Eric with tears in her eyes, both thinking the same thing, would their daughter come out of this alive.
Annie: Morning Luce.
Lucy: (mumbles) Morning.
