Charlie's POV:

The drive is a long and bumpy one. I continually bang on the trunk and yell for help, but it turns out to be useless. Finally, after what seems to be forever, the car stops, and the engine turns off. My cop instincts kick in, and I realise that the only way I am going to get out of here alive is if I make a run for it now.

As quickly as I can, before they come to open the boot, I search around for something heavy, to use as a weapon. I find a tire iron, just in time for the boot to open, and I am surrounded by a group of people. One of which is a familiar face...Brodie. Without thinking, I begin to get out of the boot while swinging the tire iron, trying to hit anyone and everyone I can.

But there are too many of them to. Before I know it the iron is taken from my hands, and I am defenceless. They advance towards me. I am pushed to the floor, hitting my head on something hard, and then it all turns black.

I wake up, feeling dizzy and nauseous. My head is throbbing. For a minute, I forget what has happened. Until I realise...

I slowly sit up, which is hard because of the pain coming from my head and stomach. I look at my surrounding... on two sides of the room there are boxes packed up to the ceiling. The side opposite to me is completely bare, except for the door. On the wall behind me there is a window. I look out of the window and see grass, trees and a dirt road. I don't recognise anything... I look around for my bag, but it is nowhere to be found, but then I remember I have my phone in my back pocket.

I get it out and look at all of the missed calls and texts from Ruby and Brax. Hazily, I begin to call Brax, because I know that he will be able to help me. But just as I go to press call, I hear someone at the door. I quickly put the phone back into the pocket, and lay down.

Brodie and Riley come into the room, closely followed by Tegan... I am not at all surprised that she had something to do with this.

"Well well well" Brodie says to me with a smirk on his face, "Sergeant Buckton..."

I stare at him and say nothing. I look at Tegan. She's smiling, and is quite pleased with herself. "Where's your boyfriend?" she asks, trying to engage a response out of me, "not coming to save the day? Oh what a shame!" she says with her grin now bigger than ever.

I still say nothing, hoping that once they realise they will get no response from me, that they will leave. Annoyed at the lack of response from me, Brodie slaps me before leaving the room, followed by Riley and Tegan.

I lay down on the cold hard floor for just a moment. My head is spinning,and i cant tell if im bleeding or not. Sharp pains are coming from my stomach and all i want to do is fall asleep. I get out my phone from in my pocket and call Brax...

Brax's POV

I'm at Roo's house talking to Heath about what to do. I have half an hour before I need to meet Brodie and I still have no plan. My phone rings, expecting it to be Brodie; I take it out of my pocket, and am shocked to see the caller ID...CHARLIE!

"Charlie?" I say with worry, "are you okay Charlie? Have they hurt you? Where are you?"... I fire questions into the phone but I don't get a response.

"Charlie?"

I listen for a minute and hear the faint call of my name... its Charlie... she doesn't sound good...

"Help...Brax" she says to me with a sickly tone of voice.

Hearing how bad she sounds almost breaks my heart. "Where are you? I'll come and get you!" I say, hoping that I get the response I need.

"Trees...grass...dirt road... Brodie, Riley and..." the phone cuts out, and I can't hear the rest...

"Who else Charlie? Who else?" I say with anticipation.

"Tegan..."

Finally I put it all together. The phone call this morning, the meeting at Angelo's, the text on her phone which made her so happy to leave without my help... she never wanted my help... she just wanted me away from Charlie... she was in it all along!

She is going to pay for this... they all are!
