Thanks to everyone who reviewed. As usual, please R+R!
As for the whole Speed being alive thing, it's because I've only seen the first series of Miami (though the new one starts on channel 5 tonight, yey!) and so although I am aware there is a guy called Ryan on the show now I don't know him from Adam and therefore if I tried to write him it would be awful. All the character description I got from my more knowledgeable friend Calleigh Delko was: 'EEEEEE! He's evil and I hate him and he follows Calleigh around!'
So... yeah.

It was the steady movement of the van that woke her up. She carefully opened her eyes. The pain from her shoulder was excruciating, brining tears to her eyes.
Her hands were tied behind her back with something, probably duct tape. The floor of the van was wet and sticky with what she suspected was blood.
What had happened? He'd come in just after she had put Lily to bed-
Lily.
Where was Lily? Had he got her? Where could she be?
Run.
"I told her to run," she said hoarsely to the darkness, her throat dry. Then, a little louder and surer, "I told her to run, and she did,"
Despite the pain, hunger and general awfulness of her situation, she smiled.
She may have been bleeding, tied up in a van being taken to god knows where, but Lily was safe from him.
That was all that mattered.
