Disclaimer: I do not own anyone or anything that you see off of Higher Ground. Don't sue.... it wont be worth the trouble.
Summary: Its after Morp (Kat's Graduated) and Scott and Shelby are finally reunited again. But all their time together wont be a happy Horizon one. No, some evil people from Scott and Shelby's past are back with a plan!
***** "Oh my gosh!!!" Squealed Juliette. "What are we gonna do?! What if they don't come back! What if we never see them again. Sure, Shelby can be mean but.... I really do like her." She admitted.
"Come on Jules. Don't think that way. I'm just as worried and scared as you are but we gotta think positive. Just pray for them to come back.... positive.. think positive, Jules." Auggie said trying to comfort Jules but inside he was as scared as a lost child.
Ezra sat with Daisy as they looked toward the woods praying and hoping that Scott and Shelby would come back.
"The cards said that sad times were approaching fast." She said dryly. Yet she was trying to hold back tears. Shelby was her best friend. She understood her or at least tried harder then anyone else. "Maybe this is the saddest part and they will come back...but....maybe it isn't."
"I know. Scott would try to defend me when David was on my case. I really hope he is ok. I don't know what I would do without seeing Scott and Shelby together. I would have no one to envy." Ezra explained with a forlorn look on his face.
David sat all alone on the stool looking toward the woods also. 'I miss Scott.' He thought 'I, Dwight David Ruxton miss somebody. This is worse then I thought. When Sophie told us, I just thought that they were just playing a trick or something. But come to think of it... Scott and Shelby aren't like me. They don't play mean tricks. If they get out, alive. I'm gonna change my ways. I will never rag on someone ever again.'
He then layed back against a tree. A single tear ran down his face. He quickly wiped it away. 'I'm supposed to be strong. I can handle this.... I think.'
***** Shelby looked in horror as Walt pulled out a gun and pulled the trigger. It was like slow motion. She saw Peter get up and dive toward, Scott, trying to get in front of it and save him. He was a split second to late and the bulled pierced Scott's foot. Suddenly Shelby realized that she was there. This wasn't a TV show. This was reality and her ex stepfather had just shot her boyfriend.
"SCOTT!" She screamed in horror. Scott fell to the ground and held his foot.
"I'm okay. It just hit my foot but it hurts like hell" He exclaimed
"Oh my gosh!" She ran over to him and ripped the bottom of her shirt off and tied it around his foot, tight to stop the bleeding. Scott picked up a metal object off the floor. The bullet. It must have passed right through his foot. He held the bullet out to Shelby.
"I don't know if that is good or bad." She said. Peter got off the ground and looked at it. Well its still in one piece so I guess its ok. I'm no doctor though.
"Well," Walt said "If that isn't bad enough Scotty here is just going to have to go through some more pain."
"Huh?" Scott asked. Suddenly Walt's foot collided with his stomach and Scott fell over as Walt began to kick him 3 more times.
"That will teach you to listen to me when I tell you not to get up. Much less pounce on me like a cat." Walt said
Peter drug, Scott back over to the corner and tightened his bandage and tried to calm him.
*****
Jason Solly, a Ridge Runner Senior, heard a gunshot and looked over to his right.
"Hey, Mac! Did you hear that!?"
"Yeah, Jason I did. Now, Ridge Runners! MOVE BACK!"
Mac Brewer a police officer in Agnes, taped his partner on the shoulder and they moved, Guns in place, over to the cave.
***** Peter jerked his head up. He thought he heard some one say Ridge Runners. Evidently no one else heard it because Elaine was filing her nails, Walt was cleaning and loading his gun, and Scott and Shelby were still looking at each other with worried eyes, while Shelby tended to Scott's injured foot.
He ignored it thinking it was just his imagination and went back to watching over Walt and Elaine. He was looking for any way out... even if he had to kill Walt or Elaine. He was ready to do anything to save his kids. Horizon was supposed to be a safe place.
*****
Mac and his partner, Suzanne, closed in on the cave.He got ready to fire at will. The Ridge Runners were a good 20 feet away and were told to stay down, on the ground, incase a fight broke out that involved guns.
They got to the edge of the cave and Mac held up fingers as he silently counted to 5 with his partner watching on. As they got to 5 they poked their heads in and....
"FREEZE!" Mac screamed. But there was no one there.
"Hey, Mac!" Jason said. "I think I see another cave."
"I think your right. Good job. The shot could have come from anywhere in a 3 mile radius for them to hear it... but for it to be that loud, it had to be somewhere, REAL, close. They started to trudge on to the other cave.
*****
Shelby sighed and looked up at Scott. She smiled at him and he smiled back. She was so, incredibly glad that, that shot had not hit his chest or his heart or something.
*SCOTTS POV*
I cant believe that Elaine hasn't done anything, yet. Maybe she wont. I thought I heard some thing earlier and Peter jerked his head up... maybe some one has found us or something. Maybe they heard the gun going off. I just hope they get here soon. I mean why would Walt be putting a silencer on his gun if he wasn't going to use it again?
*SHELBYS POV*
I am so worried that no one will find us. Peter just jerked his head up for some reason. Maybe he heard something. I hope some one has found us. I am so sick of being at Walt's mercy. He could just turn around and shoot us all right now but he doesn't... why?
*PETERS POV*
Ok, this I am getting really tired of. Walt just did something to Shelby and now he is putting a silencer on his gun. He must be planning to shoot more then once.. maybe 3 times?
*END POVS THIRD PERSON*
Scott, Shelby, and Peter both looked at each other and all with a worried look on their faces. They all 3 knew that they were in for something soon.
*****
"Curtis... come in Curtis. Can you hear me... I repeat can you hear me." Sophie said to the radio.
"Yes. I can heard you loud and clear. What do you need?"
"I just found Peter's back pack on the ground over here. By this huge log that I almost tripped on."
"Are you sure its Peter's?" Curtis asked.
"Yeah, positive. It has his name on one of the key rings. Its also green. The color of the counselor backpacks."
"Ok, well, now we know that you are on the right track. Just keep going and make sure that you and the Trackers don't hurt yourselves... be careful. You don't know if they have been abducted or what."
"Ok, we will. I'll see you later. hopefully with Peter, Scott and Shelby with us. Over and out."
Sophie just looked around. Nothing. She really hoped that Scott and Shelby and Peter hadn't been abducted. Though who would do it? She then thought back to the newspaper from 2 days before.
'A 51 year old man just escaped from the community prison in South Hampton, Washington. About 5'8 with short brown hair. Looks as if he is in his late 50's because of a heart attack and lack of proper medication. Be on the look out for this man.' Then it showed a picture of a man with the name Walt Blaine under it.
"Oh my god! I can't believe it..."
***** Mac and Suzanne just got up to the cave when he heard some one say something.
*****
"Ok, Scotty, Kitten, and Mr. Scarbrow. Why don't you all come and see me for a moment." Walt said. They all got up reluctantly and came over to him.
"Get down." He shoved them all three down on their knees. "I hope you all said your prayers"
Scott felt the cold end of a gun on the back of his head. He winced waiting for the pain that would come.
***** A/N: I know you guys have got to be hating me now!! Left you with another cliffhanger! I will come out with the final chapter soon. Sorry this story was so short. I will do a sequel if you want me to. Just say so in your review, ok? Thanks for reading and PLEASE review!
