Chapter 7: Sara's POV
I was pacing back and forth in the living room of Grissom, Lexxy, Ava, Mellie, and my duplex. I had known that something was wrong when Mellie didn't pick up her cell phone. I had called the daycare, and the phone wouldn't work. So I stopped by to see the daycare, and it was gone, burnt to the ground. Work was done for the day, so I went home, where I found Grissom eating dinner in the kitchen.
"Where is Lexxy?" I asked him.
"Not here," he replied. "I bet she is with Ava, Mellie, and Jewel, where they are."
"I just don't want them to be out in the cold in the middle of the night, or in pain, or suffering," I said, tears starting to flow from my eyes. I stood there, unable to move, and I felt someone come over and comfort me.
"Sara, it will be alright, if nobody sees them by morning, we will have the whole team working on the case and we will interview Katie, Alex, Kallie, Hallie, Oceania, Jen, Octavia, and Alexia," he said. "And of course, all the kids in the school who know what might have happened to them."
And now I was pacing in the living room. I couldn't get to sleep, no matter how hard I tried. I kept trying, but I just wanted to have my daughters back, safe.
