THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS EVERYONE!!! ON WITH THE SHOW!!

When I woke up, I saw a kid with too many freckles looking at me. I was trying to focus on him, but he kept moving. Or was that just me? The freckle-faced kid said, "Jess! I knew you'd come! Are…are you alright?"

Okay, how did he know my name? I sat up like lightning and grabbed the front of his shirt, concentrating on his ever-moving face and then I knew. I remembered where I was, why I was there, and who this kid was. It was Sean.

"Sean! Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" I started to look for any cuts or broken bones on him. He seemed fine. Just a bruise on his cheek and his hands were bound. He nodded as I hastily untied them. "Better?" I asked when I was done. "Yeah, but we have to get out of here." I nodded and stood up. I turned around and started towards the window, holding Sean's hand.

All of a sudden, I remembered Rob. God, how could I forget him? With his mystifying eyes and his crown covered with dark locks…ooh sorry, got a little carried away there. I whipped around with the intention of asking Sean if he knew where they—whoever "they" are—took Rob. As I turned, I saw this huge man, towering over me and Sean.

I didn't expect this and let out a scream. I don't usually scream—but when all of a sudden you are faced with a guy who seems to be 6ft by 6ft, you'd scream too.

Also, he had that sickening grin on his face. I hoped I had digested yesterday's food, otherwise this guy would have something on him that I wasn't sure would come out in the wash.

But, as I let out my embarrassing little scream, I heard a very comforting voice. From somewhere else in the house I heard Rob call out my name. He sounded frantic. And just as abruptly as he started, he stopped. Then, I heard a noise that sounded like bone connecting with bone. This made me furious. No one touches my boyfriend, or even my little buddy here, and gets away with it!

So I let out a punch so hard that I think I sprained my wrist in the process. Yes, huge "ouch factor." He seemed stunned by my sudden attack and he stumbled backwards. As I was about to kick him where the light don't shine, he grabbed my ankle and flipped me over on my stomach. Okay, now I don't like to be touched. Unless it's Rob, then it's okay. But an abusive—and probably psychotic—father, I think not.

Sean was screaming "Stop!" in the corner between sobs. I told him to run as I was scrambling up, but he didn't budge. Poor guy was scared out of his mind.

I really should stop thinking so much during battles because while I was thinking about Sean, his dad kneed me in the stomach. I groaned with pain, but ignored it and punched him in the face. I think this got him rather annoyed, if the way he lunged at me was any indication.

So here we are: I was rolling on the floor, trying to get a 200 pound piece of flesh off of me, when Sean decides to step in. Bad idea. Sean leaps on his dad's back and starts to strangle him from behind. I quickly scrambled up and moved to his side to give him a kick in the ribs. Then, he flips Sean over, onto the floor, knocking him unconscious. I got a rush of adrenaline and kicked him so hard, I thought I heard bones cracking. This sound was very delightful to my ears.

But, unfortunately, this just served to make him more pissed and I quickly realized that this was a losing battle. Me, being the loser. He whacked me on the side of the head, which sent me sprawling on the ground. He continued to beat the crap out of me. I managed to choke out, "Why the hell are you doing this?" I should have known the answer. He replied, "You took my kid away from me. I want revenge."

Oh. Now I know why he's mad. But still, that doesn't give him license to beat the crap out of someone, does it? No, I didn't think so.

As I was resisting my urges to give him a sarcastic one liner about how he just loves his son so much, he started to twist my arm painfully behind my back. I could feel my bones weakening under the pressure, almost to breaking point, when I heard it. The best sound in the world at that moment. I heard sirens.

Then, some guy, presumably Dr. Krantz, shouted through a megaphone that the bad dudes were under arrest. Victory! But Sean's dad just stared at me, and then moved on to twisting my leg into painful positions, instead of surrendering. Then the shots rang out. From the police, not the bad guys, that would have been very, very bad.

I jumped. Well, I jumped as much as someone who's putting all their weight on their knee can. I thought they were hitting the house, but they were just shooting off into the distance, as a threat. Sean's dad didn't find it so threatening, though. He just wouldn't lay off. He kept hitting me, and then we heard the Feds storm through the front door.

I guess he wanted to finish the job, so he started to bash my head against the floor. It's really hard to get a punch in when someone's doing that to you. Drifting in and out of consciousness, I saw a S.W.A.T team burst into the room and take Sean's dad away. All I could think of at that time was, 'Whoa, they brought in the S.W.A.T team? Nice…'

Then one of the members of that team was leaning over me, asking if I could walk. I didn't think I could, since I was having trouble just keeping my eyes open, so I told him no. I hazily remember seeing flashing lights as he carried me outside and then being wheeled into an ambulance. Then I blacked out. Again.


REVIEW PLEASE!!! THANK YOU!!
