Ally awoke to the feel of a man's arms around her. She turns over a little and looks up expecting to see Marc, Ally tries to jerk herself free when she realizes that it's not Marc at all but some one else. All at once the events of yesterday come back to her. She begins to shake and cry.
Shawn awoke when he first felt her move, "Shhh, calm down it's alright," Shawn says trying to sooth her. Ally looks at him terrified. "I have to leave," she whispers. "No you don't, you're going to stay right here," Shawn says again. "Who are you? And where's Marc," Ally asks. "I'm Shawn and as for Marc let just say not here," Shawn says looking down at the girl in his arms.
"NNNooooo! You don't understand he will punish me," Ally says as she begins to sob loudly and thrash around in the bed trying to break the hold that Shawn has on her. Holding on to her even tighter Shawn says, " Ally there is no Marc and there will be no punishment. Now you have to calm down."
"Calm down? Um, I am lying in bed with a strange man! Wait the same man that has kidnapped me and is holding me against my will, just how the hell do you expect me to calm down. I want Marc and I want him NOW!" Ally spat out at Shawn.
Gabby awoke to the sound of Ally yelling and jumped up from the couch to check on her. "Ally honey, we were so worried about you. You don't know how much I have missed you, oh and as for Marc, he is no longer an issue for us to deal with. I plan on taking you home as soon as you are well enough to make the trip," Gabby said talking in a soothing voice to Ally.
"Marc is no longer an issue, no longer an issue. That's not true you're lying. You don't want me happy so you're lying. I WANT MARC!" Ally screamed thrashing hard against Shawn. Shawn tightened his hold on Ally trying to stop her from moving. "You can't tell me that you were happy with him beating on you everyday," Gabby said trying to hold her composure but finding it getting hard to do. "Beat me, he only punished me. He was teaching me a lesson, because he LOVED ME, you bitch," Ally spat out at Gabby. "Was he your lover or your father," Gabby replied feeling the anger begin to well up inside her. "HE WAS MY FRIEND," Ally screamed as she fought against Shawn finally able to break the hold he had on her. She sprang from the bed ready for battle.
"Your friend Ally no I'm your friend, do I beat you," Gabby says as she comes face to face with a very angry Ally. Ally began to laugh, it came out sounding slightly sadistic, "My friend, Oh, she's my friend. Gabby I seem to remember you hitting me, but wait that was out of anger. Well now look who's calling the kettle black." "I hit you once. But that animal who you say "loves" you, hit you like every day. But don't worry he won't hit you anymore," Gabby said looking at Ally. "Whatever Gabby I'm finished, Marc will come for me and I hope to god that he kills you for doing this to me," Ally said turning away from Gabby.
Shawn stepped out of the room after watching what was happening. He knew what he had to do to get Ally to calm down and at the same time shock Gabby. However this was for Ally's own good, she had to see the truth in her friends words and what he was about to do he knew was the only thing at this point and time that she would understand.
Gabby looked at her friends back and spat out, "Oh so now you want me dead. Doesn't matter we took care of Marc. I don't think he's going to be coming for anybody any time soon." "What ever Gabby I know that you are just saying that, you don't know Marc like I do. Oh he will come," Ally said as she turned back to look at Gabby. "So what Ally even in your delusional world of fantasy you think dead men can walk," Gabby says with a smirk. "Fuck you Gabby, I'm tired of your games. You can talk in riddles all day, but it doesn't change the fact he will come for me. I hate you," Ally said becoming even angrier. "Ally we blew up his fucking house and we didn't see him come out of it," Gabby spat at Ally.
Ally stood there silent just staring at Gabby before saying in a very quiet voice, "No that's not true, he can't be…be dead." Gabby looked at her friend and watched as her eyes grew empty and she began to shake. "Ally I know in some weird way you loved him, but we did it for your own good and now we're going home," Gabby said as she crossed to her friend to comfort her. Ally watched her friend approach and raised her hand smacking Gabby across the face and saying, "You are such a bitch, I wish you were dead, I hate you." Gabby grabbed her face not believing that her friend Ally had struck her, maybe yell, hell even scream, but never hit that just wasn't Ally. God what did that fucker do to her, she was so full of rage Gabby thought to herself. "Any other time I would be whooping your ass about now, but I know that you are not yourself so I'm going to let that one slide," Gabby said to Ally. "You, you are nothing to me and never will be, Marc showed me, he taught me. Unlike you," Ally said launching her self at Gabby again.
SNAP…The loud sound filled the room and stopped Ally in her tracks. Gabby turned toward the direction of the sound and saw Shawn standing there with a whip in his hand by the door. Gabby began to growl low in her throat, "What the fuck do you think you're going to do with that, you asshole." "Adam take Gabby out of the room," Shawn said looking at Adam. He turned to Ally once again and snapped the whip, "Ally you are being very disobedient and I will not have it now on your knees and apologize," Shawn stated in a very loud commanding voice. Ally shrank back and did as she was told. "I'm sorry Gabby," she said in a very low voice.
Adam approached Gabby and began to escort her from the room, but Gabby jerked away and headed over to Shawn. "First of all Adam is not taking me anywhere. And as for you fucker you have some explaining to do, before I take that whip and shove it up your ass," Gabby spat at him. "Look at her Gabby tell me what you see now, opposed to how she was before," Shawn said hoping that Gabby would be able to see and understand his actions. "I thought you were here to help, we're fucking leaving now," Gabby as she turned to go back over to her friend but stopped in her tracks when she took in what she saw. Ally knelt on the floor very quiet, patiently waiting, no longer was she screaming, no longer was she being hateful. She was quiet, Gabby thought to herself. "You mean this is the only way to get through to her by threatening to use bodily harm. I don't understand," Gabby said turning back to face Shawn.
"It's like this Gabby. We have to start with what she knows and gradually bring her back to understanding that this is not what she has to have to survive or to help cope with life," Shawn said gesturing toward Ally. "How long is it going to take," Gabby asked looking at her friend. "It depends on how much of a hold he has, but since she wasn't with him that long it shouldn't take much," Shawn replied following Gab's gaze to the girl on the floor.
Gabby turned from her friend and looked at Adam. "I can't handle this, You have to take me somewhere anywhere but here Adam," Gabby said as she felt the tears threatening to spill from her eyes. Adam wrapped his arm around her and led her to the door and out the room with Chyna following. Once in the hall Chyna tapped Gabby on the arm, "Hey, she will be ok. I went through it and I was with Marc and Jason for longer than her and he helped me get through it, just trust him Gabby," Chyna said before turning and walking away.
Shawn crossed the room to where Ally knelt on the floor. "Get up," he said in a commanding tone. Ally stood but kept her head down. Shawn hooked a finger under her chin and lifted her face till they were eye to eye. Her eyes were so empty and vacant. Shawn let his gaze travel over her face taking in every aspect of it. God she was so young and innocent, so unlike the others. Shawn felt drawn to her in so many different ways. It was more than just the want of helping her, it was, if only he could pin point it but right now he couldn't.
"Ally do you like the way that made you feel when I snapped the whip," Shawn asked. "I was being bad you were just teaching me how to behave," Ally said as she bit her lip. "But how did it make you feel," Shawn asked again "How am I suppose to feel," Ally asked in return. "No, Ally, unlike Marc I will not tell you how to feel, you have to tell me how something makes you feel. Now once again Ally, how did that make you feel," Shawn asked once more. "I don't really like it, but please don't be mad, I'm sorry," Ally said taking a step back from Shawn. He watched her for a second before saying, "Ally why did you feel it necessary to apologize after speaking your feelings." He knew that this was pushing it for her but he wanted her to admit the fear that she had, so that she could begin to see the wrong in it. "I just didn't want you to be mad at me," Ally said. Shawn looked at her feeling his heart go out to her, he knew this was going to be the hardest thing that she ever had to accept. "Ally just because you say how you feel does not mean I'm going to get mad at you. Everyone deserves to feel what they feel with out any repercussions in return," Shawn said. He waited for her to reply, but knew that she would not so he went on. "Life and love are not built on hurt, pain, or violence. It's made up of kindness, friendship, trust, and love. Now tell me what did you think I would do to you for speaking your feelings." "Hit me," with those two words Ally began to cry. "Am I fucked up, am I a freak, what is wrong with me," she cried. Shawn came up to her and put his arms around her holding her speaking in soothing tones. "No Ally you're not a freak or fucked up, you're just lost and I will help you find your way back I promise." Ally cried hard, she was so confused, she felt lost and right now the only thing holding her together was Shawn. So she clung to him. Shawn sank to the floor holding Ally as she cried. Feeling like his own heart was going to break, he hoped that for her sake Marc was dead, because he knew that no matter what he would keep him from ever hurting her again even if it meant dying to stop him.
