A/N: I'll be in Six Flags all day tomorrow, so I don't know if I'll be updating again until tomorrow night unless I manage to get another chapter out today. There's only going to be two of three more chapters in this story. Then it's time for the sequal. 'Savin' Me' by Nickelback is the song.

Chapter 31: Come Please I'm Calling

-Reid's POV-

"I'll go to the Putnam Barn wreckage and look around there. Pogue, drive around the north side of town. Reid, take Tyler's Hummer and check the south side. Tyler… you should just… check their dorms… just in case." Caleb rounded up the troops in the Nicky's parking lot. Caleb called Pogue and he turned around, coming back to Nicky's.

"Mel's my girlfriend and Reid says he has her too. I'm not just going to sit in the dorms and wait to hear from you. I don't care if I haven't ascended yet."

"Fine. You two drop Sarah off at the dorms though, and still check them." I nodded. I didn't want Tyler to come, but I got him. I've never seen him like this. He looked… enraged!

"Alright, let's go!" Caleb ordered. Sarah climbed into the Hummer with me and Ty and Pogue and Caleb took their cars. This was bad. We have no idea where they are. Ipswich is big. Granted, it's a lot of farmland, but it's big never the less. I don't know how we're going to find them. Or even if we're going to find them. My breath caught in my throat as I thought about what would happen if we didn't find them. I gripped the steering wheel tightly and peeled out of Nicky's, driving illegally fast towards Spenser.

-Lux's POV-

"Rise and shine, princess!" Chase yelled, forcing me to my bonded feet by my hair. I let out a scream as he woke me from my unconscious state. My wrists were now clasped behind my back instead of in front the way they had been before when he was on my phone. After he hung up, he knocked me out with a spell.

"Don't call me that," I snapped as my feet grounded themselves so I wasn't hanging by my hair.

"Why? Is that little nickname reserved for lover boy?" I spit in his face and his sinister smile returned. "You're going to pay for that one bitch."

"Lux!" Mel cried out from behind us in the most frightened tone I've ever heard. I tried to look at the girl, but Chase still had a firm grip on my hair. I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath.

"Shut up. I'll deal with you later," he snapped at my red haired friend.

"Let her go!" Mel whimpered, beginning to cry. She was scared. And she would be stupid not to be. I summoned my power and concentrated on releasing Mel's bonds and my own.

"Run Mel!" I yelled and she took off without needing to be told again. I kneed Chase in the stomach and pushed him down, going after her.

"Nice try," he said, appearing right in front of me. I fell backwards and into the sand. "She's useless to me. Do you think I really care if she gets away? It's you I want."

I gasped as I felt sharp pains throughout my body. I cried out at the feeling of the horrible spell being put on me. Glowing blue power that took the shape of and felt like barbed wire was wrapping around my body as tight as it could. It began with my legs, starting at my ankles and going up to my knees, so if I bent them the prongs dug into the sensitive flesh in the back of my knees. Then it started on my arms, weaving between my fingers and wrapping my arms together at the wrists, going all the way up to above my elbows. My arms were tied behind my back, causing me even more pain at the way my shoulders were strained. There was even a crown of it forming around the top of my head. I could feel where shallow puncture wounds were leaking blood and I cringed. I was bound completely by the harsh wire. I've never been in this much physical pain before in my life.

"Try and get out of that."

-Reid's POV-

"Where the hell should we look now?" Tyler asked in an aggravated tone. No one had seen Mel or Lux since they were in the cafeteria around dinnertime. Where to start?

"I don't know. Let's just… drive," I said. How the hell are we going to find them? I got into the driver's side and drove down the road to Spenser.

"Go down Old Dell Road," Tyler instructed. I turned down the road and drove fast. Too fast. Because the only way I could escape hitting whatever ran in front of the Hummer was to swerve. I managed not to hit anything but was pretty shaken up. "Mel?" Tyler said, amazed as he looked out the window to see what we'd nearly hit. He got out off the car and so did I.

Mel was standing in the middle of the road, clothes slightly torn and in hysterics. Tyler held her close to him, trying to calm her down.

"Where's Lux?" I asked. I know she's scared, but I needed to know.

"Ch-Chase!" she cried out, sobbing loudly. I closed my eyes, not letting myself lose patience. "Th-they were at the Dell's."

"Call Caleb," I told Tyler. He nodded and reluctantly released his girlfriend, who I guided over to the car and put in the back seat.

"She tried to r-run, but he caught her." She broke down into tears again and a lump formed in my throat. Chase still had her. Mel got away and Lux didn't. This is a fucking nightmare.

"Caleb's on his way with Pogue," Tyler said, climbing into the back seat next to Mel.

"I'm not waiting for them," I said, using before Tyler could say anything and transporting myself to the cliff overlooking the Dell's. I dropped off the cliff and landed perfectly, feeling rage run through my veins as I something glowing blue in the distance.

-Lux's POV-

"Don't bother. You can't break that spell. You'd have to have ascended to have the kind of power to do that." Chase taunted me.

"What the fuck is your problem. Just leave me alone!" I sobbed. How was I going to get out of this? I just hope Mel got some help.

"I've been watching you Lux. I was going to go after my other brothers for their powers, but when I found these pages my dad tore out of the Book of Damnation, I got an even better idea." He pulled a few book pages out of his pocket and unfolded them, waving them in my face. "The gyst of these is that if I impregnate a witch fueled by a different element, the child will have amazing power, and won't be drained, even after the ascension. And if my heir wills me his power, which he will, you can bet on that, I will be indestructible. I couldn't believe how lucky I was when I found you. What kind of bullshit were you trying to pull at the lunch table? Did you seriously expect me to believe you lived in Salem and didn't know of the Proctor's, especially since you had the same name? Do you think I'm that stupid?" I just glared at him. "Let's not waste any time, hmm? We have an heir to produce."

"I'll abort it!" I threatened.

"Oh please. As if you have the heart to do that again? After everything you went though." I stared at him shocked. How did he know this? "I know everything Lux."

"You're a fucking bastard Chase!" I spat.

"Alright, I've had enough of you sassing me." His eyes flashed fire and changed to black and I tried to scream, but found it caught in my throat as a piece of the barbed wire wrapped around my mouth, serving as a very painful gag. I tasted copper from the blood that dripped from the split sides of my mouth. I whimpered as tears fell from my eyes. Why is this happening to me? Haven't I been through enough?

I attempted to scream as Chase ripped my school shirt open. The buttons flew off, getting lost in the sand. This isn't happening. He smirked at me, reaching out to touch my chest. I used the little strength I had in the cold weather and my beaten state to shift my body and turn my chest away from his hand. He frowned.

"A little tighter maybe?" he sneered, more wire wrapping up my arms, clasping them together even tighter behind my back, causing my back to arch and my chest to push out. "That's more like it." I could feel my skin tearing and I let out muffled sobs because opening my mouth only made the wire pulled tight between my lips hurt more.

Where is Mel? Why hasn't she gotten someone to help me yet?

"If you fucking touch her, I'll kill you," a voice said from behind Chase.
