Ryan woke up to a slap across the face. The first thing he saw was Steve's cold glare. Ryan felt the handcuffs being undone. They dropped to the floor and he rubbed his wrists. His blue shirt was thrown into his face.

"Put it on. I don't need any more blood in my car." Steve sneered.

Ryan did what he was told; only to have a gun placed in his back one he was done.

"Don't try anything funny. I won't hesitate to shoot you." Steve whispered in his ear.

Steve pushed him up the stairs and out the door. Running in the driveway was a black van. A man stood outside the open back, smoking. He had short blonde hair and a black goatee. Steve pushed Ryan into the bumper of the van. Ryan groaned as his sore stomach collided with the bumper. Steve yanked Ryan's arms behind his back, and tightly wrapped rope around his wrists. The other guy ripped off a piece of duct tape and placed it over Ryan's mouth. Steve pushed Ryan into the back of the van as he tied his ankles. The doors slammed shut.

They drove for a few minutes in complete silence.

"Steve… I thought you said there was going to be a girl." the new man said.

"There was but Joe took her to the hospital to get her lag checked out. He wants to get her knee cap back in place."

"How do you know he's going to bring her back?"

"Josh… he's my brother. But than again… I'm going to pick her up."

Josh and Steve laughed. The whole ride Ryan was fiddling with the ropes. Twisting his wrists around to get a better grip on the knot. The van took a sharp turn and Ryan slid into the wall. When the van finally came to a stop, Ryan slid into the back of the front seat.

Again the door opened; Josh stood there. He went into the back of the van and untied Ryan's ankles. Josh grabbed one of Ryan's arms and dragged him out. They were at another house. Ryan was brought down to the basement again. At least it wasn't as cold and dark. Still dark though. Josh pulled Ryan over to the far wall. Two shackles dangled out of the wall. Again his hands were above his head. Once Ryan was secured to the wall, Josh ripped off the duct tape. Ryan winced and bit his tongue to keep from crying out.

Josh laughed again and locked the door. He was so tired. Ryan's stomach growled. It had been at least a day since he'd been Steve's' captive, and he hadn't had any food. It was so hard to stay awake that he drifted into a light sleep.
