Lol ok time to review: The Stiff's are the people that killed Juliet's family, they were the reason she had to go into hiding in the first place.

Chapter 9: True

I had been in this state for a few days, freezing and barely given enough food. I had learned that there was no way from getting around Max hurting me unless I agreed to be with him, which I would never do. If I didn't know any better though, I would think he was trying to kill me.

(Clark's POV)

I told Chloe about my discovery. She agreed it was a long shot but didn't push the suspicion away. We did some more research on Sam and Max and we found out he had an isolated cabin in the Rocky Mountains. So that's where I was off to now.

(Juliet's POV)

"Have you changed your mind yet?" Max asked me. I shivered and looked at him.

"I'd rather die." I said shaking. It was so cold.

"Maybe if you keep refusing me, you will die Juliet." He said.

"How do you know my name?" I asked. "And why are you doing this to me?"

"Because it is my family's duty, Miss Davis." Then he did it, he revealed a British accent. The pieces slowly came together.

"Oh my god, you're a Stiff." I whispered.

"The only one not imprisoned, and once I have done what I please with you, they will all be free as well." He said.

"How did you know it was me?" I asked.

"I suspected from the beginning, but was never sure. I thought that my uncle had killed you but when you and that Clark person were together, and your hair was blonde and you spoke with the accent, I put the puzzle together." He told me, smiling wickedly.

"Then why don't you just go one and kill me?" I asked, I was so afraid.

"Because, I don't want to, I mean who would want such a beautiful and talented girl to go to waste? Well, not me, that's for sure." He told me. I just sat there, looking confused.

"Juliet, if you agree to be with me all of this can stop. We can be together and live happily ever after. I will only kill you if you refuse." He whispered, coming closer to me.

"You sick twisted son of a bitch." I shuddered out. His face grew angry and he slapped me.

"You have four hours to make your decision." Then he left. I pulled my knees to my chest and cried.

"Clark," I whispered once again, just wanting to hear his name one last time.

(Clark's POV)

"You have four hours to make your decision." I heard with my super-hearing. I was in the Rockies and I knew I was close.

Then I heard it. Crying, then my name.

"Jules," I whispered. I found the cabin. Just as I approached it, I saw Max drive off. Once

his car was out of site, I ran inside.

"Juliet!" I screamed.

(Juliet's POV)

Not five minutes after I whispered his name did I hear him.

"Juliet!" He screamed.

"Clark!" I yelled back as loud as I could. I kept yelling it, until my voice went out.

(Clark's POV)

At first I heard nothing. Then I decided to use super-hearing.

"Clark!" I heard her. He voice was coming from under the cabin. I tore the place apart until I finally found a door under a rug. I ripped it open and walked down the corridor until I saw another door. I tore it open as well. Then I saw her.

"Jules.." I whispered. The sight I saw before was the most terrifying sight I have ever seen.

She was beaten, cold, dirty and hungry. I have never felt more anger in my life.

(Juliet's POV)

"Jules…" He said. His voice sounded angelic to me. He looked so angry.

"Clark…" I whispered. He ran over to me and embraced me. I started to cry, again, but this time they were happy tears.

"Juliet I am so sorry." He whispered.

"You're forgiven, I'm the one that should be sorry." I told him.

"No," He said. He pulled back and gently cupped my face with his hands. "You have nothing to be sorry about. Now let's get you out of here."

"No, wait, we can't just leave, not without giving Max what he deserves." I told him.

So we made a plan.
