Disclaimer: I only own XA/N!!!
A/N: Well, I am a lazy person, but it seems like only one person really cares....hmmmmm....Ah well. Maybe we'll get some more reviews this chapter!!! By the way, I found this life-size cardboard cut-out of Y2J on ebay, but lost it!!! GRRRRRRRRR!!! I was so upset!!! Ok, now, here is XA/N:
XA/N: "JB...." Shawn said, waving a hand in front of her face. JB snapped back to reality. She looked over at Lizzie. Lizzie looked up at her.
"Is out little cop buddy sick?" Chris asked hopefully, seeing the blood on the floor. Shawn, and everyone else noticed it now, as well.
"Shit.." Rockie said. Everyone exchanged glances.
"Either he's sick, or somebody else is in really bad shape." Akila said. Everyone backed away from the bars, into the corners of their cells as they heard the sheriff coming back. He walked back into the room, and blood was dripping out of the corner of his mouth. Everyone exchanged glances again.
Whatever this cop guy had, it definitely wasn't good.
The thing was, was the cop going to pass it to all of them?
Or, had it already?

Sorry it was so short, I'm getting short on ideas. (OK, so I really have tons of them swimming around, but none make sense with what I got going on here, and some will be incorporated into the sequel to Drop to Zero. YES!! It has been started. I only have one chapter planned out, so far, so don't get your hopes up, yet. Expect the debut of that to be around Christmas or beginning 2004!!!)
BTW, the song in this chapter is "Dive Right In" by Story of the Year From their newest album, 'Page Avenue'.

//So here I go
I'll dive right in//
Shawn glared at Randy, meeting his fierce gaze. Every ounce of hate that he could muster was being directed towards him. Whatever was left would be saved for Hunter. And Shawn was sure that there would be plenty left over for Hunter.
//Break through the waves,
Straight to the ocean floor//
"Where's Chris?" Shawn asked him. Randy backed off and began to laugh.
"Chris, huh?" Randy sneered. "You're still concerned about that worthless has-been piece of crap? You need a life, Shawn."
"Well, you need to figure out what the word loyalty means." Shawn yelled at him. For an instant, Randy's eye flickered something, but the flicker was soon gone.
//And although my hands are shaking,
I lie perfectly still//
"You want to know how Chris is doing? Fine. Here you go." Randy said, moving a monitor that was on a cart in the corner of the room in front of Shawn. The monitor was apparently hooked up to a security camera in the room where Chris was being held. His head was down against his chest, which was covered in blood. There was a little movement that was noticeable, but Shawn could tell that he was alive.
//Cause I'm determined to let myself sink down//
Barely.
//And I know
I'm buried too far down//
"So Shawn, are you satisfied, yet?" Randy asked him.
"No. Show me Liz." Shawn said, still staring at Chris. Randy shook his head. He flipped a switch on the back of the monitor, and the view changed to a different room. It was hardly noticeable with the view that the camera had, but you could make out the outline of a person in the very back corner. She was huddled up in a fetal position.
//To feel
The warmth from the sun again//
"What did you do to her?" Shawn demanded. Randy rolled his eyes at him.
//I could wave my arms,
And swim away//
"Shawn, seriously. You need to use your imagination a little more." Randy said. Shawn's eyes darkened.
//But never reach the shore//
"Chris is gonna kill you, you know that right?" Shawn said. Randy laughed.
//For now, I will lay
Face first in the sand//
"At the state he's in, I seriously doubt he'd be able to do anything other than lean on me. Or maybe crawl on his hands and knees in front of me." Randy scoffed.
//With the wreckage
From ships that lost their way//
"You're going to get yours one day, Randy Orton. And that day is going to be very, very soon. I swear it on my life, and the lives of those you have here that you will." Shawn said. Randy smiled at him. He hooked Shawn up to a machine that measured his brain waves.
//And I know
I'm buried too far down//
"Here's how this is going to work, Shawn. I ask you a question, and you answer it. Now, I've already gotten the answers to these questions from Chris, Liz, and yes..even Cori's confessions." Shawn felt rage build higher and higher as Randy kept talking. "You answer the right way, you don't get hurt. Answer the wrong way," Randy said, pushing a button, sending shocks through Shawn's brain and on down through his body. Shawn bit down to keep from screaming. "And that will happen. Got it?" Randy released the button and the waves stopped.
//To feel
The warmth from the sun again//
Shawn nodded. This was going to be a very long day.
//And I know
I'm buried too far down//
Chris stared at his chest for what he thought had been hours, but knew that realistically had been only a few minutes. He raised his eyes a little when he heard some screaming.
//To feel
The warmth from the sun again//
Chris knew that it was Shawn. He took a deep breath and lifted his head from his chest. He was so tired. He just wished that they would either let them go, and leave them alone, or kill them. When he tried to think about what had started this whole big mess in the first place, he simply got confused and gave up. One thing had simply lead to another.
//And although my hands are shaking,
I lie perfectly still//
Chris stared at the door. Nothing was moving, and the door didn't budge. Chris could almost feel his pupils dilating.
//Cause I'm determined to let myself sink down//
The room was getting colder and brighter.
//And I know
I'm buried too far down//
He didn't know why the room was suddenly changing the way that it was, but it was definitely changing.
//To feel
The warmth from the sun again//
"Now what?" he thought. The door began to slide open.
//And I know
I'm buried too far down//
A figure was standing in the doorway in front of him. He looked away for a moment.
//To feel
The warmth from the sun again//
When he looked back, he couldn't believe what he saw.
