A/N: I would have had this chapter up last night but I was grounded.
Captivity Is Not For The Strong (Syd's POV)
My instincts were wrong. It was not Ms. Kenn. It was Bonnie. "Bonnie?" I was incredibly confused. "Lipsky. You always *were* one to hide, weren't you?"
"Shut up." I retorted.
"Now, now. That's not very nice, is it?" In half a second, Bonnie had slapped handcuffs on me. I gasped, Bonnie grinned. "You think Dementor would give me NORMAL handcuffs? No way. You would have broken them with your hands."
"H-how do you kn..." I was cut off by the pain on my hands and arms.
"Are you kidding? Dementor's researched *everything* about you and your pathetic little friends."
"Th-they're not pa-pa-path-thetic!"
"Don't worry, Sydney. Everything will be okay soon. You and your accomplices will all be gone soon."
"Wh-what the heck..." I passed out.

Crap. Crap. Crapola, Crap City. I woke up a matter of hours later (don't even ASK me how fricking long it was), my head hurt. I was on concrete, and my whole body ached now. I looked down at my hands. They were a dark, dark red. It seeemed to suit my mood. I was so fricking angry. At Dementor, at Bonnie...God, I don't know where the HECK to start. The unconscious forms of Des, Sam, and Kristy were scattered around the room, which was somewhere inbetween a broom closet/jail cell. No one else was awake...or around...I walked over to the door and quietly jiggled the handle. Dang. Locked. I sighed. Things were simply NOT going the way my "master plan" was going to work out....
Thinking of a plan, which is unusual for me in stressful environments. I tried to activate my flame hands, but they refused to work. Ooh, crap. I kicked the door open (Thank God for my GJ training!) and advanced out into the lair. I found an adjacent hallway (it was kinda dark, so I could barely see it), and quickly stole down there. I hoped Ron was there, and I had a gut feeling he was....I started singing a song we wrote when we were twelve and in love:
"We were strangers,
Starting out on a journey,
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through...
Now here we are, I'm suddenly standing...
At the beginning with you..."
I found Ron. He had joined in:
"No one told me,
I was going to find you,
Unexpected,
What you did to my heart.
When I lost hope,
You were there to remind me...
This is a start..."
We were both singing now...
"Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Live is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
We were strangers
On a crazy adventure
Never dreaming
How our dreams would come true
Now here we stand
Unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you...
Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Live is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
I knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
Now I know my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing's gonna tear us apart
Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Live is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep going on....
Starting out on a journey
Life is a road and I wanna going
Love is river I wanna keep flowing
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you...."
"...With you..." I leaned in to kiss Ron, but mentally scolded myself. 'No,' I thought. 'He's Des' boyfriend...' I pulled back. I didn't want to. There was a warmness inside Ron that I had never felt before...Not even around Josh. JOSH! Oh my God! He's going to go CRAZY when he finds out I'm missing! CRAP! Then, at that moment, Bonnie walked in. Bonnie was wearing an outfit similar to my mother's, but it was yellow and black. Instead of half of the suit being yellow and the other being black, there were several golden lightning bolt designs around the background of the suit. She tossed Josh into the room forcefully. He looked odd. His normally deep blue eyes seemed to hold fear and horror into them, and he was pale...Bonnie spotted me. "Lipsky! What are you doing?!"
"N-nothing! Now let my friends go!"
"I'm not going to do that." She grinned. Then, she flared up her gloves. They were different from mine. They didn't cover her entire hands, they seemed to be...Lightning bolts. That's what they were. I found that out the hard way. As I keeled over, clutching my chest, I looked up at Bonnie. "...I win." She spat in my face.
