Lies among us

Chapter two
Danny gasped as the attacker pressed the gun closer to her. Mary shook with fear. This was obvious to Danny.
"Let her go!" Danny said sternly. He was shaking too, not with fear, with anger.
"No! Sit on the couch." The attacker ordered.
Danny obeyed slowly. Thoughts raced throughout his mind. Many of them were with worry of Mary. He gulped.
Mary gasped suddenly as the gun was pressed harder into her head. "Where is it?!" The attacker demanded.
"Where's what?" Danny questioned. He knew that the only thing he could do to save Mary was to obey the attacker and do anything the attacker said but Danny had to look stunned at this last part. He looked sincere. "Where's what?" He repeated sincerely with a face no-one but the attacker could dismiss.
"You know what I mean!" The attacker shouted. A tear fell own Mary's cheek and Danny's eyes filled with tears themselves as he looked at Mary's face and the gun pressed into it.
"No!" Danny cried. "I assure you that I don't!" A tear ran down Danny's face also.
The attacker released his hold on Mary and pushed the frail body into the arms of her lover. Mary began sobbing into the shoulder of Danny.
"It's ok." He whispered into her ear in a comforting tone. He kissed her forehead multiple times before whispering more comforting words. "Everything is going to be alright." He brushed both hair and tears away from her face and eyes before kissing her forehead gently. "It's gonna be ok..."
After a moment the motel room phone began to ring loudly. Danny flinched as did the attacker.
"Leave it." The attacker muttered in a voice which was just barely audible. The ringing stopped after a few minutes.
Suddenly the tones of a number being dialled into the phone in the motel room was heard. Danny looked up and turned around to see their attacker talking silently to an unknown person, possibly an accomplice.
"Alright." The attacker said sternly. "Get up." Danny and Mary both obeyed. The attacker led them outside and into the bushes to where a white van was parked. "Get in." The attacker ordered. Mary obeyed once again. But Danny found it within himself to refuse, only to be picked up and thrown into the van by the attacker's large accomplice.
The doors closed after a moment, filling the back of the van with darkness. Danny found Mary's hand and grasped it. "It will be okay honey." He kissed her hand gently and held it to his chest. "I promise."
.::The office of Big Ed Deline::.
Ed Deline slammed the phone down angrily. His protégé had not been answering the phone for hours now.
"And I thought Danny was joking about making love all day long..." Ed muttered angrily.
Ed had been trying to contact Danny about an escaped prisoner that he and Danny had helped put away. To be truthful, Ed was kind of fearful that the prisoner had already got to Danny. But Danny was watchful was he not? He would be careful and protect Mary and himself...
The phone rang, jolting Ed from his thoughts. He picked up the phone. It was from Danny's and Mary's motel room over in Hawaii. "Where the hell have you been Danny?"
"With me..." An unknown voice said. "I nabbed them this very night..." The voice said in a lethal tone. "If you do what I want maybe you can get him and his little fiancée back... but not before we have a little –fun- first..."
To be continued...
