So...really short chapter. It became to be this way, because I decided to cut another character out totally. I didn't like the story with her in it and it was just...bad. So I had to go and re-write a bunch of the plot and dialogue. I think it's much better this way. Can anyone guess who the oher character would have been? (Think early season 2)
"I spy something...bronze," Cameron said.
"The doorknob?" Foreman guessed.
"Yeah," Cameron sighed. "Your turn."
"I spy something grey."
"The floor?"
"Nope. The wall," Foreman said.
"Oh, I should have known. I-" Cameron began, but stopped.
"What?"
"Listen."
They listened and heard the jingling of keys outside the door. The door opened, reveling Bill and Chase. Bill pushed Chase to the ground while he locked the door again. Chase stumbled as he was trying to get up and he was muttering obscenities under his breath. Cameron and Foreman rushed to his side to help untie him but Chase trashed around.
"Chase, it's us," Cameron said gently.
Hearing her voice, Chase stopped moving and let Foreman untie him and Cameron removed the bandana that served as a blindfold.
As soon as he was freed of his bonds, Chase grabbed the other two in a hug. Unsure what to do, Foreman patted Chase on the back and Cameron laid her head on Chase's shoulder.
"I'm so glad to see you guys!" Chase exclaimed. "We've all been so worried."
"We, meaning House?" Foreman asked.
"Well, yes but Cuddy and Wilson too. Cuddy's hired a bunch of people for the investigation."
"Have they found anything out?" Cameron asked.
"Nothing new since Foreman left," Chase said. He looked around for the first time, taking in his surroundings. "This is kind of a drab place isn't it?"
"Yeah," Cameron said. "I've been here for I don't know how many days-,"
"Four. It's been four days," Chase said.
"Really? That's all?"
Chase nodded. "So what do we do?"
"Nothing. Cameron and I have tried every possible thing to try and get out of here," Foreman said.
"There has to be a way," Chase said.
"There isn't," Cameron said in a whisper, more to herself. "He's done exactly what he wants." She looked over at Foreman and Chase who were staring at her with pity. "He took away any hope we had and replaced it with fear."
Foreman and Chase looked at each other, each trying to think of a way to console Cameron. However, they couldn't because they both knew that she was right.
