It was when they were getting the satellite for Addy. Ten thousand saw Cassandra run off and took off after her.
"Hey kid!" Doc called.
"I'll be back!" Ten thousand called. He looked left and right when he didn't see her.
He saw her turn and took off after her.
"Cassandra! Wait! What's wrong?!"
Cassandra turned.
"Ten K? You shouldn't of followed me. Go back to Doc."
"But-"
"Go Ten K!!!!" Ten K nodded and ran the other way. He got up with Doc and helped him get the satellite down for Addy. Ten K saw a car a little away and went to it. He put his rifle on the passenger seat after cleaning the zombie out. He then hot wired it and saw it start he smiled and was about to close the door when someone tasered him on his throat making him choke before passing out. The people carried him out.
Doc went over to where he saw the kid go. "Ten K? Ten K?!" He asked when he saw the sniper rifle. He knew the kid would never leave it behind. Doc took out his tablet and looked up the feed for the traffic cam. He grabbed the rifle and ran to the others.
"Where's Ten K?" Garnett asked.
"Taken. By humans."
"What?!" Garnett asked.
Doc showed them the video.
"Wait that's..." Addy cut off.
"Yeah."
Cassandra then came over.
"Where's Ten K?"
"Taken."
"Is he?"
"No. Taken alive. By humans."
"Who would do that?"
"I don't know. That's what we wanna ask you."
They then continued interrogating her and Doc lost it screaming at her. Mack didn't blame him. Doc loved that kid. He'd hate himself if anything had happened to him. They found out where Ten Thousand is and headed for it.
Ten thousand started panicking when he felt his wrists tied to a chair and had something over his head. Soon someone had taken the thing off his head and Ten K looked at them.
"Hello kid. My name's Tobias and this is my family."
"My friends are looking for me. They will find me and they will kill all of you."
"Oh well I doubt that. Anyway. Let's get you fixed up. Phil, Donny why don't you dress our newest family member?"
"I never said I was joining your 'Family'." Ten K said.
"Oh I'm sorry. Usually when people see the love and happiness we share they well they never want to leave. Boys?" The two men then led Ten K away.
Soon the boys came out and Ten K stepped out. They had combed his hair, put him in some camo shorts, and took off his shirt.
"You look hot." Donny said.
"I feel like a pre-apocaliptic male stripper."
"Or bait." Phil said.
"He looks great boys. Now why don't you set the table. Make a seat by mama for our 'Guest'."
Ten K saw something with a cover over it's entrance and headed for it checking to make sure Tobias was busy. He went in and looked at the weapons before continuing farther in.
"Please don't be a dog." Ten K said looking at a cloth covered figure. He moved it and put his hand over his mouth quieting a scream. He looked around and saw others all around.
He ran out and right into Tobias's arms.
"Dinners ready!!" He called.
"I have a plan to get him out." Mack said.
"What is it?" Garnett asked.
" I pose as a gay guy looking for some fun. I ask for a young kid. One that is shy. They should bring Ten K. Addy I need you to ask Citizen Z for music, a diversion. You blast it and lead the Z's there. We get Ten K and kill all the cannibals." Mack said.
"All right. Let's do it."
Addy asked for some music and Mack headed down.
"Can I help you?"
"Yeah. I hear you guys have people for some fun?"
"Yes we do. We have Stormy or some other girls?"
"What about boys? I'm gay."
"Any specific type?"
"Young and shy."
"Come on in. I'll get you to the camper then get the boy."
Mack went in and leaned against the counter. The guy went over to where Tobias and Ten K was.
"Fresh meat. Looking for a boy that is young and shy." The guy said.
Tobias smiled.
"Looks like your first job. Your new name is Dandalion by the way. Let's go." Tobias led them to the camper.
"Wow he's hot." Mack said.
"Dandalion your up. You have twenty minutes. No rough stuff."
"Nice name. Dandalion. Don't worry I'm not like that." Mack said.
"Good Dandalion you know what you have to do."
Ten K gulped and nodded absently rubbing where they stung him with the taser when they kidnapped him. Tobias and the man left.
"Mack." Ten K said running over and hugging him.
"Shh. Shh. Kid. It's okay. We are going to get you out of here. Just follow my lead."
Ten K nodded and Mack and him started rocking the RV while moaning. They heard the music and Mack acted like Ten K had pulled a taser on him. Mack hid and Ten K watched the men enter and Mack shot one but Tobias snuck up behind Ten K and held a taser to his throat and turned it on. Ten K groaned before his eyes rolled into his head and he fell limp against Tobias.
"Ten K!!!!!!!!" Mack yelled.
He grabbed the taser from Tobias and shocked him. He then lifted Ten K into his arms and ran to where the truck was waiting. Doc helped get Ten K into the truck.
"What happened?" Doc asked.
"Tobias tasered him."
Cassandra shook her head and looked at Ten K. Addy looked in a bag and took out a pillow and blanket. She put the pillow under Ten K's head and covered him up. Mack and Addy then got in the bed of the truck. Doc caressed Ten K's head. Ten K groaned and his eyes opened.
"Hey Doc." Ten K said.
"Hey kid. How are you feeling?"
"Tired."
"I bet. When was the last time you slept?"
"When you found me."
Doc's eyes widened at that. "That was months ago."
Ten K nodded before he fell asleep. Doc smiled and kissed Ten K's head.
"Night kid."
"Night Doc." Ten K had a smile on his face as he fell back to sleep.
