A/n: Ok, this chapter is only going to feature OC characters.
Disclaimer: I own none of these characters. I do however own Sara, Chase, and anybody else featured in this chapter.
Sara's eyes widened when she finally realized what had just been said. She wasn't sure what to think, what to do. Had that really happened? Had this boy just said that? She thought to herself. She went to speak but no words came out. Finally, Ryan (or Lucas) spoke up again.
"How did you know?" he whispered in his little boy voice. Sara could swear she saw a look of hope in his eyes. She wondered how it was this boy was able to keep this secret for so long.
"I, Ryan, or I mean Lucas, or-" She cut herself off when she realized Ryan (Or Lucas) went to speak.
"Lucas. C-Call me Lucas, please," he said softly and Sara could do nothing but nod.
"Why didn't you tell anybody?" she said, now getting off the couch and kneeling in front of Lucas.
"I couldn't. You, you can't tell anybody. My-I mean they would get mad. They, they said if I told anybody, that they'd hurt my mom and dad. I, I didn't want that. I-I-I miss my mom and dad though," said Lucas, his eyes brimming with tears.
"I'm sure you do. They miss you too. Lucas, why? Why didn't you tell somebody though? I mean, you had to know that someone would have helped you," said Sara and Lucas looked down at the ground.
"I just told you. They'd hurt my mom and dad. My mom doesn't need that and neither does my dad. Besides, he said they didn't even love me," whispered Lucas hoarsely and Sara nodded.
She understood. She had heard this same thing so many times before; in books, on television, and it appeared they were dead-on. A kidnapper tells the kid that their parents don't love them anymore. They say all of these things.
"It's not true. My brother, Chase. You know him? He's sees your mom and dad on T.V. He showed me them. They do miss you a lot. They love you more than anything in the world Lucas," said Sara and Lucas nodded.
"I know that now. I didn't know it when he took me away though," said Lucas.
"I'm calling the police," said Sara getting up and Lucas looked up. His hazel eyes looked up at her and Sara swallowed hard. God, he looked so innocent.
"Will I get to see my mom and dad again?" asked Lucas innocently and for the first time, Sara could feel a small smile on her lips. The sound of small hope and joy was in that boy's voice.
"I hope so," was all she said before disappearing into the kitchen.

The police looked at the little boy in the room. He was sitting anxiously, fidgeting in his seat every now and then. He looked exactly like the description of Lucas and the police just knew they had found the right boy.
They had contacted the North Carolina police department and had spoken to the officer that had been working on this case before the boy was pronounced dead. It was a miracle that after all this time the boy had finally been found, and alive at that.
"This is going to take a lot of time, you know that right?" asked the first officer, Officer Williams. Officer Carter just nodded.
"Yeah, I know. I just hope we can finally reunite this boy with his parents. I knew about this boy beforehand. My youngest son watches wrestling constantly and he had been telling me a while ago about Lucas," said Officer Carter. Williams just shrugged.
"Well, there's only one more thing to do for now. We've questioned Lucas a bit," said William's and Carter nodded. He knew what they must do now.
The NCPD had given them the numbers they needed to contact the two people who needed to know now before the news and the media found about all of this.
"We need to contact his real parents," said Williams.
