Chapter 26: Trapped
Lorelai just stayed on the floor crying until she was interrupted by a knock on her door.
'I forgot about Luke' Lorelai thought as she went and opened the door.
Lorelai found a stunned Luke in front of her, 'I must look bad' Lorelai thought.
"What's wrong?" Luke asked immediately concerned about her.
"Rory… Max… gone…" Lorelai said between sobs.
"Did Max kidnap Rory?" Luke asked quickly just to be sure that he understood.
Lorelai nodded yes.
"I need to get to Boston" Lorelai said trying to calm down.
"Come on, I'll take you" Luke said.
Lorelai felt guilty, 'He shouldn't do this' she thought.
"Luke don't worry I'll go myself you just go back to the diner" Lorelai said.
"No you're not good to drive and I want to come" Luke said.
"Are you sure?" Lorelai asked.
"I'm sure you just go upstairs and get out of that dress and I'll take you" Luke said.
"Thanks and I'm sorry about the date" Lorelai said.
"Don't worry about the date we can do it some other time" Luke said.
"Thanks" Lorelai said just above a whisper as she went upstairs leaving Luke alone with his thoughts.
'The police had better find them first because if they don't I'll kill him' Luke thought as he sat down and waited.
In Boston Chris was waiting to hear back from Lorelai when Sherry walked in.
"Hey Chris, what's going on?" Sherry asked when she saw police there.
"It's Rory" Chris said before he broke down crying.
"What happened to her?" Sherry asked going over to comfort him.
"Max broke in and took her" Chris said.
Sherry gasped she didn't think that Max would go that far.
"At least he won't hurt her" Sherry said trying to stay positive.
Chris sighed, he hadn't wanted to tell her but it was unavoidable now.
"Sherry the reason Rory was staying with us was because Max had been raping and abusing her" Chris whispered.
Sherry gasped, 'I thought something else was up' she thought.
"Chris I'm so sorry" Sherry said hugging him.
"I'm just waiting to hear back from Lorelai she's coming here" Chris said.
Sherry just nodded and left him to his thoughts.
Just then the phone rang and Chris got up to get it.
"Hello" he said.
"Hey Chris" Lorelai said he could tell she'd been crying.
"You're on your way?" Chris asked.
"Yeah and Luke is coming with me" Lorelai said.
Chris bit his lip, he had heard Rory talk about Luke and he wasn't sure he wanted him here but if Lorelai needed him then he could come.
"That's great" Chris said.
"Could you please call my parents?" Lorelai asked.
"Are you sure?" Chris asked.
"Yes I can't talk to my mom" Lorelai said.
"Lor I really am sorry I thought this would be good for her" Chris said.
"Chris lets not worry about that now please just call my mom" Lorelai said trying to keep her anger in check.
"Alright I'll see you when you get here, good-bye" Chris said.
"Bye" Lorelai said hanging up the phone.
"I have to call her parents" Chris said to Sherry.
Sherry just nodded as Chris dialed the Gilmore's number.
After three rings someone picked up.
"Hello" Emily said.
"Hello Emily" Chris said trying to keep his voice steady.
"Hello Christopher we can't wait to see you and Rory tonight" Emily said.
"You and Richard have to come to Boston" Chris said.
"Why?" Emily asked fear rising in her.
"Max kidnapped Rory" Chris said.
Emily felt her world shatter she was sure that Rory would be safe in Boston.
"We'll be there as soon as we can" Emily said hanging up the phone.
"Who was it Emily?" Richard asked walking into the room. He was surprised to see his wife visibly shaken.
"It's Rory, Max found her" Emily said.
"Is she alright?" Richard asked quickly dropping the book he was holding.
"Max has here, we have to get to Boston" Emily said.
"Right away" Richard said as he went to grab his car keys.
In Max's apartment Rory was getting nervous, 'Max hasn't done anything to me yet but he will' she thought.
Just then Max walked into the room, "I have good news it's almost dark enough to start" he said smiling evilly.
"Why are you doing this?" Rory asked as she started to cry.
"I'm doing this because you've been a bad girl and bad girls need to be punished" Max said.
Rory decided not to push him farther, 'I might as well enjoy these last minutes of peace' she thought.
"Alright lets get started" Max said.
"What are you going to do to me?" Rory asked her voice full of fear.
"You're going to find out" Max said taking his belt off.
'He's going to rape me' Rory thought as she started to cry.
Much to Rory's relief and fear Max didn't take his pants off but he did tape her mouth shut.
Then Max started beating her with his belt.
That went on for about ten minutes before he stopped.
Rory was pretty sure that something was broken but she could only focus on that the beating was over.
"That's enough for now but you're not done yet" Max said.
Rory was sobbing now, 'Please no more' she said in her head.
"I'm going to get some dinner is there anything you want?" Max asked.
Rory shook her head no.
"Fine I'll be back soon and then we can have some more fun" Max said walking out and locking the door.
'At least he left my pajamas on' Rory thought.
'I have to try and get out' Rory thought as she looked around but all that gave her was a huge let down there really was no way out.
'Please someone find me' Rory thought as more blood left her body.
Luke and Lorelai had reached Boston and were heading to Chris's apartment.
"Luke what if they don't find her?" Lorelai asked.
"Don't worry we'll find her" Luke assured her.
"I'm afraid what if nobody finds her, she's my life" Lorelai said.
"She'll be o.k." Luke said just as they reached Chris's apartment.
They parked and went upstairs to find Chris pacing around the room.
"Have you heard anything?" Lorelai asked.
"The police are looking but they've had no success" Chris said.
"Why aren't you out looking?" Lorelai asked.
"The police can cover more ground Boston's a big city" Chris said.
Lorelai sighed, "When are my parents going to be here?" she asked.
"In about ten minutes" Chris answered.
"So all we can do is wait until the police say something?" Luke asked.
"That's about it" Chris said.
"Hello I'm Sherry and who would you be?" Sherry asked introducing herself to Luke.
"This is my friend Luke" Lorelai said.
"Hello" Luke said shaking Sherry's hand. Just then Luke remembered something.
"Chris may I use your phone I need to call Jess, I forgot to tell him what was going on" Luke said.
"Go ahead" Chris said handing him the phone.
Luke went into the other room to talk to Jess.
"Did you have to bring him?" Chris asked.
"Yes he's my friend, he wanted to come, and I couldn't drive even if I wanted to" Lorelai said.
"Alright" Chris sighed.
Meanwhile in Max's apartment Rory was still hoping to find a way out when Max came back.
By now bruises were forming all over Rory's body and she was in great pain but could do nothing about it.
"Here I brought you a burger" Max said as he took the tape off and fed it to her.
Rory took a couple bites before she stopped eating and Max taped her mouth shut again.
"Let's get down to business" Max said as started taking his clothes and ripping Rory's off.
'He's going to rape me' Rory thought.
The next 30 minutes seemed like days to Rory she was in horrible pain and tried to scream but only muffled cries came out.
"That's all for tonight but don't worry we'll have some more fun tomorrow" Max said as he went to bed leaving Rory there naked.
'Please God help me' Rory thought before she fell into a restless sleep.
Emily and Richard had arrived in Boston and were waiting to hear anything from the police.
"I know she's hurt I just wish I could do something" Lorelai said.
"I know but the police will find her" Emily said to Lorelai.
When Lorelai didn't respond Emily kept on going.
"I am sorry Lorelai I really thought that Rory would be safer in Boston" Emily said.
"Whatever mom" Lorelai said getting up.
"Where are you going?" Richard asked.
"I'm going to look for Rory" Lorelai said.
"You should stay here" Chris said.
"I can't just sit here I have to do something" Lorelai said leaving the apartment.
After Lorelai left Luke followed her outside.
"You do realize that you probably won't find her" Luke said.
"I know I won't but I have to look for something" Lorelai said as she started walking.
Luke just followed her in silence knowing that she had to get this out of her system.
After about an hour of walking around Lorelai stopped and started to cry.
"Why did this have to happen Luke?" Lorelai asked.
Luke was about to answer but Lorelai continued.
"I mean I thought it was over my life was supposed to be good now Max was supposed to be gone and Rory was supposed to be happy" Lorelai said before she broke down crying.
"It will be alright, let's go back to Chris's and we can look for her tomorrow" Luke said.
"I just hope it won't be too late" Lorelai said as they started heading back.
