Chapter 12

"Eric! Jackson ! Come quick!" called Melissa from the beach.

Jackson with out hesitation ran to the beach, but Eric was looking at the ground day dreaming, he was in a trance, he was scared.Jackson ran to the beach.

"Mel, what's wrong?" asked Jackson as he looked up and froze.

"Happy to see me?" said Abby as she was holding Melissa with a knife to her neck.

"Move and she dies." snapped Abby as she starred at Jackson with her hard cold eyes.

Jackson froze. Melissa was so scared.

Abby dropped Melissa to the ground she then looked at Jackson and said: "If you try to run, I will kill Melissa." Abby then walked back over to her pack and got out some rope. (Thick, braded vines.) Abby then tied Melissa's hands back behind her back.

"Am I hurting you?" smirked Abby.

"Yea." said Melissa in a quiet voice as she cringed while Abby pulled tighter.

"Good." snapped Abby.

"done." she said.

Abby then got more rope and walked over to Jackson and began to tie his hands togeather.

Meanwhile Eric was still in his trance. He finally snapped out of it and remebered that Melissa was calling hem. So he walked over to the beach. As he walked over he saw melissa with tears in her eyes, she was sitting on the sand with her hands behind her back. Eric then saw Jackson on the ground cringeing while Abby was tieinghis hands togeather.

Jackson looked up and saw Eric standing there. Abby's back was too Eric so she couldn't see him. Jackson mouthed to Eric "Go!" With that Eric jumped and ran behind a tree.

A few seconds later Abby stopped tieing Jackson's hands togeather and looked up. She put her hands on her waist and gazed around.

"We're's Eric?" asked Abby.

"He's around." siad Jackson.

"Eric I know your around here somewhere so just to let you know I will find you." called Abby. Abby then grabbed the knife and said: "I'm going to go look for hem, if you try to run I will kill Eric and then you guys will be next." with that Abby dissappered into the jungle. When Eric heard what she said he ran.

Jackson and Melissa sat in the sand for hours. Thesun was finally starting to set. "Mel, you ok?" asked Jackson. (they were sitting kind of across from each other.

"I want to see tomorrow. I want to see Daley, Nathan, Lex,and Taylor again. I want Eric to be ok." said Melissa as she looked at Jackson.

"So do I." said Jackson.

"Mel, it's getting late and Abby probaly won't be back till later. So we need to keep warm. Come and sit by me." said Jackson.

Melissa nodded and crawled over to Jackson. She leaned against his chest. Jackson had his jean jacket sitting next to him. He grabbed it with his mouth and put it over Mel. Melissa could feal his warm chest. She felt so comfortable.

"Mel, everything is going to be fine." said Jackson as he fell asleep along with Mel as the sun set. Jackson and Melissa slept and slept . Listening to the ocean all night. The night was quiet. Abby was still looking for Eric, he was hiding.

It was morning. Melissa woke to the light sky. Jackson was still asleep his arm was around her. She was still on his chest and his jacket was still on top of her. Melissa sat up and decide to wake Jackson.

"Jackson, it's morning." said Melissa as she nugged Jackson with her shoulder. Jackson woke and looked up.

"Abby never came back nor did Eric, Jackson there still out there. What are we going to do?" asked Melissa. Jackson was wide awake now.

"I don't know Mel, I don't know."
