My attention quickly turned back to Manny when I heard her blood-curdling scream. I looked back just in time to see her being pulled into an alley. My heart immediately started beating, and my adrenaline was rushing. I did the only thing that seemed rational that moment; I chased after her.

"Manny!" I screamed. "MANNY!"

I rounded the corner, only to run into Sam. I looked up at him. The smirk on his face was enough to drive any woman crazy, but I knew the truth. I knew from the beginning he was up to no good.

"What did you do with her!" I screamed in his face. "Where the hell is Manny! Where-"

I didn't have any time to react, when I saw his arm raise, and his fist fly towards my face. The blow to my head was so hard that I blacked out, but when I came to, I was in an unfamiliar area with unfamiliar people.

A/N...Yeah, Yeah, Yeah... this is one frigging short chapter. But I wanted the next chapter to contain the gist of what my story is basically about (if that made any sense). And, I apologize ahead of time if you all think this chapter sucks major ass. If you do, I agree. I just wanted to send something, anything, to you guys. So, here it is... Don't forget to review! Flames are welcome for this chap! And again, I apologize profusely...
