Coyote Ugly 2

Happy Late Thanksgiving everyone! I know that not everyone celebrates Thanksgiving so Happy Late November the 25th too! You know, Thanksgiving is kind of a stupid holiday. It celebrates the Pilgrims having a huge feast with the Native Americans way back in the 1600's then the Native Americans all die because we gave them diseases! Sad yes, but it's a reason to eat like crazy and get two days off from school so I guess I can't complain.

I hope you liked the last chapter. Sorry it took so long. I hope to update more now that Christmas is coming and we have that huge break. Let's get on with it then!

Happy anniversary to me!!! It's my one-year anniversary of being an author on fanfiction! All of my updates are in celebration so please review!

Disclaimer- I don't own it, see? I don't own anything but the plot. Ya got that, punk?

Chapter 12 The Rescue Mission

Gone. She was gone. Mona had only been missing for about an hour, but Draco had never felt more alone in his life. He hadn't moved. Tears were flowing down his cheeks, and he was unable to stop them.

How could he be so stupid? It was such an obvious trap! Any moron in the Midwestern United States would've see it coming. He shouldn't have left Mona alone for more than a second. He should have stayed at home until the coyotes got here. If he hadn't been so lightheaded with the anticipation of the baby and their anniversary, maybe Mona would still be here.

Ginny and the coyotes could wait no longer. Draco might've killed himself the agony for all they knew. Carefully, they walked up the stairs as silent as a mouse and peaked through the bedroom doors. Draco lay on the floor in a crumpled heap not moving. His blue gray eyes showed no emotion. He lay as though a dementor had sucked his very soul out of him.

"Draco?" called Megan timidly. There was no answer, only a sniff.

"Draco, are you okay?" asked Kristina opening the door fully and putting her hand on Draco's shoulder. Something sparked in him.

"Am I okay?" he repeated quietly. "NO DAMN IT!!! I'M NOT BLOODY OKAY! I'M HORRIBLE!!! I'VE LOST MY WIFE, MY CHILD, AND MY LIFE ALL IN THE SAME HOUR!!! HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF ETHAN HAD BEEN SUDDENLY TAKEN? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOUR WHOLE WORLD CAME CRASHING DOWN ON YOU? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOU KNEW ANOTHER MAN WAS GOING TO TAKE THE ONLY ONE YOU'VE EVER TRUELY LOVED?"

Tears had come back to Draco's eyes. They fell down his cheeks and soaked his pants where they fell. Most of the coyotes were crying as well. Mona had been their best friend. They had been through so much together. All those nights on the bar. The Hogwarts reunion. Finding Taylor pregnant. Being there for her own pregnancy.

Ginny stepped forward. She was crying, but a strange gleam was in her eye. It was as though she were possessed. "Draco, you have to pull yourself together." She said in a loud and confident voice. He didn't move. "Mona probably hasn't gone into labor yet. If we can somehow find him, we may be able to save Mona and the baby."

Draco turned to her with a look of innocence as though Ginny was his mother going to find his lost puppy. "But how are we going to find them? They could be in China by now."

Just then, a crash and a shout was heard downstairs. Draco, Ginny, and the coyotes rushed out of the room to find Harry, Ron, Severus, Sam, Ethan, and Matt and Hermione looking around wildly for them. "Where's Mona?" demanded Harry urgently.

"She's been kidnapped!" shouted Draco. Harry nodded at the men.

"Then I know where she is." Replied Harry simply. Draco's mouth dropped to the floor. Ginny gasped, and the coyotes' eyes got big.

"Where?"

"Turn on the five o' clock news." Said Ron. Draco lunged for the T.V. remote and switched to channel seven. An anchorwoman was standing outside of the Sears Tower.

"Yes, Dean." She said to the man in the newsroom. "We do have a breaking story at the Sears Tower. A madman has apparently high jacked the building and taken it over completely kicking out everyone. Security guards mysteriously disappeared and the doors, windows, and emergency exits are all locked. No one can get in. The man's identity is unknown, but witnesses say that he has with him a woman looking to be pregnant and a man in a raincoat. We'll contact you if we have any more updates. Reporting live from the Sears Tower, I'm Maria Hiller."

Draco stopped breathing. Mona was trapped in the Sears Tower. Victor might drop their baby off the tower when it's born. Without saying a word, Draco got up and dashed out the door.

"Are you crazy? You've just let the entire city know where I am. If there's even the slightest chance that Draco wasn't watching…" The room was dim, but Mona could see nearly everything. Though she wasn't sure exactly where she was, she knew that she was at least in an office building in the Sears Tower lying on what felt like a hospital bed.

"Be quiet!" snapped Victor. His plan was working perfectly. He had Mona trapped in a giant skyscraper, and soon Draco would be coming in to try and save her. Then he could kill him by watching making him watch Victor kill his own flesh and blood. Even if Draco didn't find the secret entrance to the tower and get past all of the traps, he would die, and Victor would be free to claim Mona as his own.

"Sir, she has a point." Said Pierre taking off his signature raincoat. Victor only smiled.

"Don't worry. Draco will come. Too bad it'll be pointless." He said evilly. Mona was not convinced.

"I'm not even in labor, you moron! Draco will save me by the time the baby's born." Said Mona smartly. A grin spread across Victors face as though he knew something.

"Don't worry." He whispered leaning in to whisper in her ear. "I have a feeling you'll be going into labor very… very… soon."

Suddenly, Mona felt something wet trickle down her leg. Her water broke. With a look of pain on her face, the baby gave a lunge forward as though it were pushing against her. The baby was coming.

The crowd parted as Draco ran as fast as he could towards the yellow caution tape. People stared and gave him funny looks, but he didn't look back or bother to explain. Guards were patrolling around the caution tape to keep people from crossing it and attempting to get inside.

"Excuse me sir, I have to get in." said Draco urgently taking deep breaths. The guard only brushed him off.

"No one can cross this tape." He drawled. Draco didn't give up.

"Please sir, that's my wife in there. She's a hostage!" he yelled. The guard stopped and looked at him.

"We're doing all we can to get in. Now if you will please go back home and relax, we'll get in there as soon as possible." Draco could tell that the guard didn't believe him.

"That's not good enough! She's going to go into labor if you don't let me pass! I can get her and my baby out if you'll just let my through!!!"

"Men, please escort this man out of here." Said the guard to a group of buff men standing by a trashcan. Draco gulped as the men pushed him through the crowd and into an empty parking lot. Draco could hear mumbles of "crazy lunatic" and "drunk" as they passed.

At that moment, his truck driven by Severus, who was holding the keys Draco had left, with the gang pulled up next to him.

"Draco! You idiot! Did you honestly think they'd believe you?" asked Taylor rolling her eyes.

"They're not going to let anyone in especially if they look as desperate as you do." Said Chelsea.

"How would you look if your wife could be in labor right now?" mumbled Draco picking himself off and dusting off his jacket.

"No time to argue now." Said Ethan. "There must be another way in…"

"Of course there is." Said Harry. "We went through his in Auror training. Every famous building like this has a secret entrance just in case something like this was going to happen. There's a toilet you can go through to get into Big Ben in London."

"So where is it, smart-ass?" asked Draco coldly. He was growing impatient. Mona could be gone already, and the baby could be dead.

"I don't know exactly where…" admitted Harry quietly. The doom noose became tighter. The entrance may be blocked off.

"How about there?" asked Ron pointing across the street. It was a parking garage designed especially for the Sears Tower.

"Ron, if I were gay, not married, and not having a baby, I'd kiss you right now." Said Draco. Ron cringed.

"Thanks mate, but I'm not gay so I might've killed you if you'd have tried."

"No time for talking!" shouted Megan. "We need to go!" After leaving Sam with Matt and Hermione, they raced across the street and ran up into the parking garage. The owners were outside getting interviewed so they didn't notice Draco and the others slip past them. Desperately, Draco climbed the stair and burst into the office of the garage. Harry, Ron, and the rest of them followed closely behind.

"Let me check around and see if I can find anything…" trailed Harry pulling out his wand and muttering a spell. The wand tip glowed a bright green as Harry trailed it along the sides of the walls. They watched him apprehensively as though he might sprout fangs and kill them. Draco stopped breathing the whole time.

Finally, Harry's wand began to glow a deep red. "It's right here!" he exclaimed. "Everyone stand back!" Severus motioned for them to follow him out into the actual garage as Harry blasted the wall to pieces. A loud bang was heard and the office became black. Bits and pieces of the wall littered the desks and floor. Harry himself was covered in dirt, but he waved them in anyway.

"How did you know that was there?" asked Chelsea.

"The secret passages are always in the most used area, and this is the closest part to the actual Sears Tower so I figure the passage must be close by." Explained Harry

"Great! Let's go." Said Draco lighting his own wand with Lumos and running down the passage. One by one, the coyotes, Harry, Ron, Ginny, Ethan, and Severus followed him down each one lighting their own wands.

It was pitch black down the tunnel. Water dripped from the ceilings and pipes rose at odd angles out of the ground, which made it hard to walking without tripping. Draco hurdled over each one skillfully as he finally reached the end. The exit was a door in the basement that looked as though it had never been used and was a decoration.

When everyone had gotten out of the passage, Draco turned back to Harry. "Know any tracking spells?"

"The question is not if I know any, it's how many I know." Said Harry lifting his wand to the ceiling. He muttered "Mona Malfoy" and a purple light blasted in all direction in what looked like little snakes. The purple snakes slithered up through the ceiling and moved throughout the building. They held their breaths until finally one of them returned. Harry hissed at the snake in Parseltongue, who hissed back. Harry straightened up and turned back to face them. "My seeker here says that she's on the four-sixth floor in room twenty-two. He also says that Krum bewitched some of the guards here so they're out looking for us, and they have guns."

"We're wizards. Who cares about guns?" said Kristina rolling her eyes.

"These guys are good though. They'll shoot you quicker than you can probably cast a spell so we're going to have to split up." Said Harry.

"Okay, I'm taking Harry, Ron, Kristina, and Megan with me then. Let's go." Said Draco quickly walking toward the door.

"I want to go with you! Harry's my husband!" protested Ginny.

"I want to go with Ethan!" Draco groaned.

"Fine. I don't care. Whatever. We're wasting time. Now my group will go this way." Said Draco pointing to one of the doors. "And you guys go that way." After saying goodbye to each other, they split up hoping that they saw one another again.

"It's going to be a while sir." Said Pierre over Mona's loud breathing. "She's still tight."

"I don't care. I want that kid out and in my hands so I can kill it! Get to work!"

Draco poked his head around a corner. It was just like being James Bond. He was sneaking around a nearly deserted building while guys with guns wanting to kill him were carefully patrolling. After looking everywhere for any sign of trouble, Draco nodded for the others to follow him. Across the hall, he could see the elevator. If they could use that, they'd be there in no time at all.

"C'mon. Let's take the elevator." He whispered to Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Megan.

"Are you sure?" questioned Megan. "Wouldn't they expect that?"

"If we keep going at this pace, we'll get there in about twenty years." Reasoned Ron. "We're only on the fourth floor."

"It's our only chance." Stated Harry. Draco walked up to the doors and pushed the doors to open them. The elevator immediately responded. They stepped into the elevator and pressed the button to go to the forty-sixth floor.

As soon as the doors shut, the elevator shot up at and unnatural speed. The five of them were pressed down to the floor, unable to move.

"Is…. t…this…supposed… to…h…happen?" asked Megan trying her best to talk.

"No!" yelled Draco. The elevator went faster and faster until suddenly, it stopped right at the top of the tower. They had just enough time to stand before the elevator dropped. Ginny screamed and grabbed onto Harry. Ron fell up against the ceiling. Megan hit her head and was knocked out. Draco realized that they probably wouldn't live through this. He silently said his goodbye to Mona and the baby.

Just as it was looking hopeless, the elevator stopped. Everyone fell back down to the floor and looked around. Ron was sitting up with his wand clutched firmly in his hand.

"What did you do?" asked Megan incredulously. Ron looked dumbly at his wand.

"I dunno. I just said the first words that came to my mind, Wingarium Leviosa." Everyone in the elevator let out a sigh of relief before hugging Ron and shaking his hand.

"You saved us! I always knew you were good for something!" shouted Ginny squeezing Ron hard.

"Looks like that charm saved not only Mona's life, but ours too." Said Harry remembering the troll incident in their first year of Hogwarts.

"So how do we get out now?" asked Draco. "The doors won't open if they're not connected any more."

"Leave that to me." Said Ginny happily getting up and pulling out her wand. "Stand back!" With the flick of her wand, the doors were blasted apart. Pieces of them were flying all over and hitting them in the face. When the dust had finally cleared, Ginny turned back to grin at them. "I love blowing things up…" she muttered sheepishly.

Draco didn't look back. They had made it. They were on the forty-sixth floor! He ran out of the elevator as fat as he could. Screams of pain could be heard. "Mona!!" He shouted. "I'm coming for you!"

A/N: Wow that was a lot of work! Please don't leave me for leaving it there! I didn't mean to, but the next chapter will be the rescue! Please review and thanks a bunch for reading!!!
