"How?" Mina asked.

"Is there a light in here? Its as dark as hell and we're going to need some light to be able to get out," Seiya said, pointing towards the high window.

"Seiya, I'd hate to burst your bubble, but that window is protected by metal bars. And, its too high," Serena said with a sigh. She had felt a little better after throwing up. "How would we get out?"

"Well, I went through your backpack after Josh came in...I found this," He held out the pocketknife.

"Sweetness," Serena said, grabbing it and flipping it open. She walked to the bed, jumped on it, leaned towards the window and examined the screws. "Perfect. I can probablyunscrew it!" She said as she closed the knife and jumped off the bed. Now wasn't a good time to try though. She had a feeling Micheal would be showing up any minute.

"Whats wrong?" Mina asked.

"Nows not the right time. Micheal will be comming any minute. I have a feeling he will, Seiya?"

"Yeah?" He asked.

"Why did you flip out like that on Micheal? He could've killed you,"

"Because he cares about you. Your like his sister," Mina said.

"We've only known each other for three days," Serena replied

"What she said. And I don't know why. I just feel like your my sister.Anyways, I was pissed since Josh..." He stopped and bit his lip.

"What he means to say is that Josh came in here and gave us a very clear and grusum discription on how we were going to be killed. He even got this lifesize stuffed doll and demonstrated,"Mina said, cringing.

"Why did he demonstrate?" Serena asked.

"He said it was so we wouldn't fight him. He also said if we're good, he won't make our deaths that painful,"Seiya finished. Serena noticed that neither of them were looking her in the eye.

"Your hiding someting guys. Something else happened too. What happened?" she asked, eyes narrowing.

"Sere Josh came in here a little bit after his stupid demonstrationand beat the living shit out of us. I think he was drunk," Seiya said quickly.

"You look fine," she said, examining their faces. Minas face was already covered in so many cuts and bruises, it was hard to tell weather there were any new ones. Seiya looked fine.

"Thats because its nighttime dumpling. I can barley tell you two apart since its so dark," Suddenly, they heard the door click and were blinded when the light suddenly came on. Serena quickly crammed the pocketknife down the back pocket of her jeans, looked up, and gasped when she saw Mina and Seiya. Seiya was now in just as bad condition as Mina. Mina had so many bruises on her arms and face, it was hard to reconize her.

"Sere! I need you to do me a favor!" Micheal said, holding out a cell phone. Mina gave Serena a quick glance. She was white as a sheet of paper when she saw Micheal standing there.

"W...what?" she stammered, recalling what happened in his room. She had to bite her lip to keep from crying again.

"So I raped you. Get over it, its going to be happening quite often. Now anyways, I want you to call Darien. Tell him your okay and call your parents and say the same thing," Serenafaintlyrecalled how he had said that if anyone knew anything about him, he would kill them.

"No," she said, in a shaky voice.

"And why not? I don't want them comming after me,"

"Just how stupid do you think I am?" she said, getting angry and louder.

"Pretty stupid," he said with a smile.

"Micheal, either your a major dumbass or your trying to trick me. Most likely the second one. You know damn well thatRei,Lita Yaten, Amy,Taiki, and everyone else in the class told the cops. You know damn well that if I called,they would be able to trace it. You know damn well that they'll find us here. YOU KNOW DAMN WELL THAT YOU THREATENED TO KILL ANYONE WHO COMES! DID YOU SERIOUSLY THINK I WOULD FALL FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" She was now up on her feet, screaming.

"Well, actually yes, I did think you would," The next thing she knew, she had jumped on him. He fell on the floor and Serena sat on him with her hands around his throat.

"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?" she screamed, digging her nails into his throat. Micheal only smiled and then cried out when she dug her nails in deeper, causing him to bleed.

"GET OFF YOU BITCH!" He yelled, pushing her off. She tried to get up but Micheal picked her up by her neck and lifted her off the ground. "Do you want to play rough again?" he asked.

"NO!" she screamed again, kicking him in the leg. He pushed her against the wall and put one hand over her bra.

"Okay then, if you want," He was stopped when Mina grabbed his shoulders and yanked him back.

"MICHEAL STOP IT! LEAVE HER ALONE!" she screamed. He stopped for a moment, and dropped Serena.

"Be glad your friends are here otherwise I'd have another round with you," he said in a dark voice. He turned and left the room.

"Thank you," Serena said, nearly crying with relief. She stood and and hugged Mina tightly.

"Aaaahhhhhh! Your hugging me too tight!" Mina choked out. Serena smiled grimly, took out the pocketknife, went over to the bed, and jumped up to the window. She began using it to quicklytwist off the screws.

"You two are getting out of here. NOW!"

"And you?" Seiya asked.

"I'm staying,"

"OH NO YOUR NOT!" Mina said, shaking her head.

"If you think we're going to let you stay your crazy!" Seiya said.

"Guys, get over it.Its better if I stay," she said as she started unscrewing the last screw, "If I leave, he will come after me again and will probably do worse," She threw the bars down and jumped to open the window. "Okay. Seiya? Help me get Mina up," They hoisted Mina up to the windowsill.

"Woah! Steady!" she said, as Serena nearly collapsed under her weight.

"How can I be steady bowling ball butt?" she said sarcasticly.

"I take it your feeling better," Mina said as she climbed onto the window. She stuck her feet out and just as she was about to jump down...

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING BITCH?" They heard Micheal scream. They turned around.

"Oh my God MINA JUMP OUT JUMP OUT!"Seiya and Serenastarted screaming to her. With a quick, terrified glance at Micheal, she jumped out and ran. Wow, this place is hot! she thought. She cried out in frustration as she began to trip over the rocks. They helped her out...she couldn't let them down. She began running faster than she ever had in her life.She didn't even see the hill she had to go down. The next thing she knew, she had tripped over yet another rock and went tumbling down the hill. The next thing she felt was pain washing over her entire body. After that, she felt nothing.

EARLIER ON DARIENS PLANE:

Darien sat in the plane, staring out the window. His heart was beating like crazy. He nearly had a heart attack when he heard Seiya call and he took the next flight out. Micheal can't hurt her...please let her be okay... he thought. Darien tried to think back towhen Micheal first came along. What would Micheal do to her? he wondered.He suddenlyremembered being at that house. Micheal had molested her when they were there so most likely...MICHEAL WILL RAPE HER! Dariens heart stopped, thinking of his little Meatball Head being robbed of innocence. He leaned his head against the window and wiped a tear away. The pilots voice came over the loudspeaker.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, THANK YOU FOR FLYING WITH AMERICAN AIRLINES. WE HOPE YOU'VE ENJOYED YOUR FLIGHT AND WE ARE NOW LANDING IN SAN DIEGO AIRPORT," Breathing a sigh of relief, he got his bag and stood up.

"Sir, please sit down," a stewardess said. Darien sat down and glared at her. As soon as they opened the doors, he was out of there. He ran through the airport and ran into Amara and Michelle.

"Darien! Over here!" Michelle called. He ran over.

"Wheres Serena?" he asked immidiatly.

"Darien, Lita had a feeling Seiya called you. Thats why we came and..." Amara started.

"Okay whatever but is she okay?" he asked quickly.

"She...shes still with Micheal and so is Mina. And Micheal took Seiya too. We have no clue," Dariens mouth dropped open.

"We're going to Serenas," Michelle said.Darien nodded and they went to the car. There were two police cars parked outin front of her house, along with the three lights truck and Amys moms car. Darien jumped out of the car and ran through the front door. He was greeted by Amy andYaten. Amy looked like she was going to throw up and Yaten looked like he was punched in the face.

"What happ..." Darien began.

"They found Mina," Yaten said grimly, interrupting him. "Out on the side of a highway,"
