Chapter 6

As morning broke the next day, Ben and Abigail started driving towards the old train station.

"Ben are you sure this is going to work?" Abigail asked.

"Yes it will. The president set it up himself. So don't worry we will get Riley back," Ben reassured.

When they got to the train station, Ben and Abigail got out of the car and stood in front of it. Ben had the presidents book in his hands. Soon Ian came out of the little building by the train tracks. Phil and Victor followed behind him holding Riley between them. When Riley saw Ben, he tried to run to him. But Phil and Victor's strong hold held him back.

"Hello Ben," Ian greeted.

"Ian," Ben stated coldly.

"I see you do care. Give me the book," Ian demand.

"First Riley," Ben demanded.

"Ben you are not in the position to be giving the demands. Now give me the book," Ian ordered.

All of a sudden, FBI agents came out and took down Phil and Victor. Riley tried to make a run for Ben, but Ian grabbed him. Ian had Riley in front of him like a shield and a gun to his temple. He held a tight hold on his arms.

"Get back or he gets it!" Ian yelled at the agents.

The agents backed away. Ben became more worried.

"Hand it over Ben," Ian ordered.

"Hand Riley over first," Ben ordered.

"Ben you better give me the book or I'm going to kill him right here!" Ian yelled.

Ben went and put the book on the ground between him and Ian. He backed away. When Ian picked up the book, the agents tackled him to the ground taking Riley with them. Riley got up and went for Ben. A gun shot sounded. Ben looked at Riley as the wound from the gunshot started bleeding from his right shoulder. Riley stared at for a minute before looking at Ben. He would have collapsed if Ben didn't catch him.

"Ben...it hurts. It hurts so bad," Riley gasped.

"I know. I'm here Riley. I'm here. I've gotcha ya. Just hold on," Ben reassured as he held Riley close.

Ben took off his jacket and pressed it against the wound.

"Ben it's so cold. I'm so tired," Riley gasped.

"Stay with me Riley. Help is coming. Just stay with me. Don't go to sleep," Ben instructed.

"I'm sorry Ben," Riley whispered.

With that Riley lost consciousness.

Author's note: sorry this story seems a bit rushed. It's just coming out. I think a few more chapters to go.
