Hey hey kids!

Thanks for the reviews, I really appreciate them!

Recently I've been watching a lot of CSI New York episodes with the character of Shane Casey in them (to anyone who doesn't watch it, or anyone who does but doesn't know who he is - he's a true psycopath), and I've kinda started writing Stanley's character with Shane Casey in mind. So if Stanley starts to get a little more... intense... that's why ;{)

Enjoy!

"Well hello, girls," Stanley smirked as he walked down the steps, his hands shoved in his pockets.

Cat and Jade immediately shuffled back along the floor, clinging to each other desperately until their backs hit the wall behind them - preventing them from escaping as Stanley stepped closer to them. Jessica stepped back and watched with a smirk on her face as the girls cowered in fear.

"What, you aren't happy to see me?" Stanley asked with mock confusion as he kneeled down in front of the girls. Jade glared at him as Cat avoided eye contact. He chuckled and reached out to stroke Cat's hair away from her face, cupping her cheek in his hand, "You're even more beautiful than I remember, cupcake," he finished in a whisper.

"Get your hands off her," Jade spat, glaring up at him through the curtain of her hair.

Stanley's head suddenly turned towards her and he stared at her dangerously, making shivers run down her spine, "Nice to see you again, Jade," he sneered, leaning in towards her. She grimaced and tried to move her head away, not wanting him to touch her.

He chuckled and stood back up, staring down at them for another few moments before he took Jessica's hand and led her up the stairs. As soon as the door locked behind them, Cat and Jade let out the breaths they were holding.

"What do you think he wants?" Cat whispered as she stared down at the ground. Her eyes trailed along her leg and down to her ankle, finally settling on the heavy cuff which attached her to the floor.

Jade sighed, "I don't know... maybe he has some..." she trailed off, "Unfinished business," she finished in a whisper. Her stomach churned at the thought. What other reason would he have to take them again? He wanted to finish what he started so long ago.

"Do you think we'll make it out of here?" Cat breathed, breaking Jade out of her thoughts.

Jade reached down and took Cat's hand tightly in her own, "I hope so."

Several hours later, the door to the basement opened again and Stanley walked down. He was alone, and Jessica was nowhere to be seen. Cat and Jade watched as he made his way down the stairs - his heavy work boots stomping down on each step until he hit the concrete floor of the basement.

They stayed silent as he made his way over to them before crouching in front of them like he had done earlier. He smirked at them, "I'm so glad you girls are back. I missed you," he breathed, resting a hand on each girls' leg. The girls shifted away, their stomachs churning as his hands squeezed their legs.

"Go to hell you psycho," Jade spat, bravely pulling her leg back and kicking it out, effectively making Stanley stumble backwards.

His eyes immediately darkened and he stood up, "Watch your mouth," he spat, suddenly bringing up one leg and crashing his foot down upon Jade's left had which lay by her side.

Jade instantly screamed loudly in pain as several of her fingers broke. She curled up and cradled her hand against her chest as Cat whimpered in fear, practically feeling Jade's pain. Stanley reached down and grabbed Jade's shoulder, pulling her back upright and slamming her back against the wall, "Cut the attitude. You hear me?" he hissed, tangling a hand in her hair tightly.

She whimpered and nodded, cradling her hand underneath her right arm, desperate to stop the pain. Stanley let her go and spun around, making his way back up the stairs and slamming the door loudly behind him, making Cat jump in surprise. Jade breathed heavily, feeling the pain in her hand beginning to spread though her arm. She closed her eyes and rest her head back, praying that the pain would stop.

"Any news?" Beck asked hopefully as he walked back down the stairs in Tori's house after using the bathroom. They had been at Tori's house for hours, just waiting on any kind of news about the girls.

"Nothing yet, sorry," David said sympathetically as he took a drink of his coffee as he sat next to his cell phone and the house phone.

Beck sighed and sat down on the single chair next to the tv. He rest his head in his hands and rubbed his temples, feeling a serious migraine starting behind his eyes. He knew he should go home and get some sleep, but he just couldn't. No matter how tired he was, he knew he wouldn't be able to sleep without knowing anything about Jade and Cat.

He jumped as his phone buzzed in the back pocket of his jeans. Reaching back, he fished it out, expecting a text from his parents wondering where the hell he was. But what he found instead was very unexpected.

From: Unknown Number

I know about the girls. I know where they are.

Meet me behind the Gorilla Club in 30 minutes and I'll tell you everything.

Beck frowned as he re-read the message again, making sure he was reading it correctly. Andre noticed his friend frowning and wondered what was going on, "Everything okay?" he questioned, his eyes flickering between Beck's face and the phone. Beck snapped out of his thoughts and nodded, standing up and grabbing his jacket.

"Yeah, I'll be right back. Let me know if you hear anything," he said before rushing out the door, leaving his friends watching after him in confusion.

Thirty minutes later, Beck paced back and forth along the alley behind the Gorilla club. His mind raced, did this stranger really know anything about the girls? Could he have Jade back in his arms sooner than he expected? He could only hope for the best. As the hundreds of thoughts flew through his mind, his suddenly became aware of footsteps behind him, causing him to turn around.

A frown appeared on his face as he looked at the person who was dressed in a long black, hooded sweatshirt. Just as he opened his mouth to question the person, their hand flew up and suddenly connected with the middle of Beck's face. The force of the punch sent Beck flying back into the wall - his head connecting with the solid brick, and everything suddenly went black.

*gasp!*

The part where Jade's fingers were broken was inspired from the scene in the CSI:NY episode 'Snow Day' where Danny's fingers are broken by the criminals.

I hope you liked it!

Love
