Summary: Austin and Ally take a trip to Ally's aunt's cabin during spring break thinking they'd have a typical break with a few friends, a little booze and lots of alone time. Little did they know what was ahead for them and that, that included someone trying to sabotage it all. Stranded with nowhere to go and someone trying to make sure they're never seen again isn't exactly the kind of break they were thinking of.
A/N: Wooooo, I'm early this time :) To the person that said making them have sex was inappropriate. This is my story and I am writing as I please, I don't really care when you expect auslly or whatever but the reason they had sex was because they were so angry and built up that they needed some kind of relief. So they found it in each other.
Second, someone asked me if this will be like a killing spree..well I wouldn't say count on it being like that. Someone does want them dead, but it's not that simple.
Anyways that's it..enjoy!
"Where are they?!" Ally runs to the window for the umpteenth time in the last five minutes. The second gun shot they heard putting all kind of crazy scenarios in her head.
"Ally, they're fine." Jace tells the girl, pushing her down onto one of the couches. "I swear they'll be back and then we can finally get the hell out of here."
"I wish they would hurry," She wraps her arms around herself and leans back on the couch cushion. "What if they aren't okay? We all heard that gun shot. Why won't you let me outside to see?"
"It could've been thunder, Alls." Trish suggests. "The forecast says it should be raining tonight. Don't worry just yet."
Ally nods in agreement, hoping that could've been what they all heard. She looks out back at the window and notices small rain drops slowly drizzling onto the glass.
"If it bothers you that much, do you want me to check?" Cassidy asks, a little irritated but nonetheless worried too.
Ally turns towards Cassidy. "We should've done that from the start but yes please." Ally murmurs, sitting forward. Not having the energy to address Cassidy's bitchiness lately.
Cassidy sighs before standing on her feet and walking towards the door.
She pulls on the knob but before she can even twist it open, the door bursts open-startling them all.
Cassidy jumps back just as a very drenched Trent and Austin run in through the door.
They're panting as if they just ran a mile run and their next movements are frantic.
Austin quickly slams the front door shut and locks it.
Everyone else watches in bemusement as the two boys walk over to the couch opposite of Ally and lift it up like it's the lightest thing in the world and move it to act as a boulder in front of the door.
Dez is the first to speak up. "Uh, what the heck happened and where's Dallas?"
Austin moves to the windows and pulls the curtains open to make sure all of them are securely locked.
"They got him," He answers, trying to catch his breath as he checks through the windows once more and that's when the rain starts to really pour down.
"What do you mean they got him?" Cassidy asks immediately, her eyes wide.
"We were trying to chase who ever the fuck that was away," He begins. "We did all the way into the woods and then out of nowhere this other person jumps out."
"They shot him." Trent says abruptly, continuing the story and getting right to the point.
"It happened so fast. We tried to get him back here but he told us to leave him, we told him no." He shakes his head, his face impassive.
Cassidy immediately moves to sit down, her head in her hands as she tries to process it all. She sobs as Carrie pulls her into a hug.
Austin frowns. "We couldn't leave him. We weren't going to. They were chasing us and he was losing blood by the second. He would've never made it." He swallows down the lump in his throat as he pulls Ally-who's standing now-into his arms
"He just collapsed. Guys, there was nothing we could do. I'm sorry." Austin says solemnly.
"He's dead?" Ally whispers quietly only for him to hear, her brown eyes wide and full of fear.
Austin sighs sadly, he presses his lips to her hair. "Yeah," he whispers back, tightening his hold around her.
"So what, wait does this mean that there's more than one person out there?" Jace questions.
"Wait when did we even establish the fact that there was anyone out there? I mean are they here for a reason? If so why?" Carrie adds in her own question.
"I think we kind of established that when we found Kira's head, Carrie." Trent scolds, rolling his eyes and she just scowls at him.
"There's no way in hell we're gonna get out of here. We don't know how many of them are out there and why they're here." Austin says.
"But we can't stay here," Dez states, fear evident in his eyes. "It's not fucking safe and the longer we do, the unsafer we are. There's people out there trying to kill us."
"I don't know," Austin shrugs. "But we'll figure it out."
The brunette beside him, clears her throat. "What if I told you guys," Ally begins suddenly, pulling away from Austin. "I think I actually knew this person." She murmurs.
A loud clap of thunder from outside is what awakes Ally from her sleep. It takes her a few seconds to fully awake and remember where she is.
She sighs as she looks outside and it's still pouring down. She has a feeling it may never stop or at least not till morning time.
Carrie is beside her and they're both laid up on a pallet on the cold hard floor. It's after midnight and they've agreed that they'll leave as soon as the sun rises.
Everyone's staying downstairs as a precaution. Not daring to leave each other's sights.
Ally stands up, being careful not to wake the sleeping girl next to her. Cassidy and Trent are asleep on the remaining couch while Jace and Trish are on the floor beside it.
From her spot, she can tell the door is still blocked from the inside so she sighs in absolute relief.
The lights are off in the entire house except for a light in the kitchen so she ventures off to see why Austin and Dez (she can only rightfully assume) are still up.
Austin's the first to catch sight of her. He's sitting at the small dining table. "Hey," He says, smiling gently.
"Hi," She mumbles back, sleepily.
"What's wrong?" Austin raises his eyebrows up in concern and holds out his arms for her.
She walks across the room and sits down into his lap just as he circles his arms around her body.
"Nothing, I was just wondering where you guys were." Ally answers as she looks around, noticing Dez is nowhere in the room. "Where's Dez?"
"He went to look for some candles," Austin lays his chin on her shoulder. "The lights went out."
"Aren't you tired?" Ally asks. He just shakes his head in response.
"I was wondering why you were using this flashlight," She murmurs, picking the flashlight up off the table then placing it back down.
"Yeah," Austin laughs a little before his expression turns serious. "We're gonna get out of here, I swear."
"I know...or at least I hope." She sighs. "What am I supposed to tell my aunt? Oh hey, Aunt Carol, so me and my friends went up to your cabin, right? And someone was there trying to kill us. There's a body on the front porch and my best friend's head was tied to a tree!"
"Oh and my other friend is possibly dead somewhere else too!" She says sarcastically, placing her face in her hands.
Austin snorts, rubbing her arms. "Don't worry about that now, we just need to focus on getting out of here and going to the police, okay?" He kisses her shoulder.
Ally nods and just then Dez walks in.
"Any luck, dude?" Austin questions and Dez shakes his head.
"Nope," He moves to lean against the counter. "I looked everywhere I could think of."
"Do you guys even know how the lights went off? I mean my aunt uses a generator so that's nearly impossible." Ally cuts in.
"Yeah, I noticed that." Dez says. "I think someone purposely cut the plug."
"Wait, so you think someone was or could've been in the cabin?" Ally asks in panic. She tries to stand up but Austin holds her down.
"If there is, I'm not letting you out of my sight," The blonde's hold on his girlfriend tightens.
"I don't wanna alarm anyone. We just need some light in here for the time being." Dez says.
"I think my aunt has some old oil lamps in the basement," Ally offers him. "We could use those."
"Here they are." Ally holds the flashlight up to a old box labeled 'other things' and Austin gladly picks it up.
"It's ridiculous how many things she has down here." The brunette murmurs to herself looking around.
Austin sets the box down and she pulls the lid of it back. "There's enough in here to last for the rest of the night."
"Yeah that's enough. I'm gonna take them upstairs." He says, grabbing some of the oil lamps in his hands.
Ally turns to look at the blonde. "Go ahead and just take the whole box."
"You sure?" He asks warily. "We don't really need the whole box."
"You never know." She shrugs and he laughs, nodding. He grabs the box from the floor and takes her hand. It's not till they're halfway near the stairs of the basement that Ally hears a sudden crashing sound from the corner of the room.
Ally halts immediately and Austin turns back to see why she stopped.
"You heard that right?" The brunette murmurs.
"Heard what?" Austin arches his eyebrows in bemusement. Ally holds her finger up to her lips signaling the boy to be quiet.
Then it happens again only this time, it's louder and he hears it.
"What the fuck is that?" The blonde whispers, he lets go of her hand and moves past her.
Thud. And there it goes again.
"I don't know and I honestly don't wanna find out. Come on." She tugs on his arm but he doesn't budge.
"Let me see your flashlight." He reaches back for it as he stays facing forward.
Ally looks down at his hand and she's reluctant for a second before she finally hands him the flashlight.
"Austin, please." She hisses at him but he just ignores her as he starts to walk forward.
Thud.
He shines the light of the flashlight over the area of the room several times but he doesn't see a thing.
"There's nothing there." He shrugs. "It could be anything making that sound, c'mon." He takes her hand and they walk back up the stairs.
Ten minutes later and the lamps are lit, brightly lighting up the entire cabin.
Ally's alone, simply placing the small lamps in several parts of the room while Austin's downstairs.
The brunette is in the upstairs hallway when she suddenly hears footsteps coming from inside the hallway. She turns her head to the direction of the sound but there's nothing there.
She shakes her head to rid herself of the uneasy feeling she has in her stomach that someone's watching her. Slowly it fades away.
The girl conveniently places the second to last oil lamp on a table in the hallway, that way if anyone needs it, it's there.
She tucks a strand of hair behind her ear and holds up the other lamp with one of her small hands. The light illuminates the hallway as she begins to walk and then she has that feeling again. Except this time she knows there's someone there with her and she turns behind her back and yet again, there's not a thing there.
"Don't freak out, Ally." She whispers to herself and closes her eyes. Ally breathes in then out, opening her eyes at the same time.
She turns around and she sees a shadow move through the hall towards her and before she knows it she's running as fast as she can for the steps.
When she reaches the stairs, she takes them one at a time but at a quick pace.
Once she's at the bottom, she sighs briefly in relief.
She's about to turn around and make another run for it but before she can someone grabs her from behind and covers her mouth.
"Mmmmmmhhhhmhhhhhh!" She screams but her voice is strangled. She wriggles trying to find her way out of whosever grip it is around her.
"Help me! HEL-" Ally screams as the person's hand falls from her mouth for a second but moves over it quickly again.
Although she believes it's no use, she doesn't stop trying.
The person hisses in her ear to stop and she does, obediently. Tears start to fall from her eyes and her pleas become more quieter when she recognizes the voice.
"Don't cry," Austin tells her, grabbing her other hand with his and squeezing it. "Please don't cry, it's me."
She nods but she can't stop sobbing.
"There's someone in the house and I need you to be quiet." The blonde whispers into her ear.
He pulls his hand back from her mouth and releases her, grabbing her hand again. "We're gonna wake everyone else up, grab our bags and get the fuck out of here, okay? Dez started up his car. Carrie, Trish and Jace are already outside waiting."
"There's more than one of them, Austin." She manages to say.
"I know, baby." He murmurs. "You ready?"
Ally nods again and he lifts her hand up to kiss her knuckles for a second then they're off into the front room.
Austin grabs their bags while Ally runs over to the other side of the room to wake up Trent and Cassidy.
When she sees that Cassidy's missing from her spot on the couch, her eyes widen. She looks around the room but she's nowhere to be found. She sighs, wiping her tears and realizing she can only assume that she's outside with the others.
Ally moves the covers back from over Trent and shakes him as hard as she can but he doesn't wake. She does it again and again but it's like he's lifeless.
She shakes him one more time and this time he falls forward, revealing the bullet wound in the back of his head.
Ally screams at the sight, her tears coming again. She covers her mouth with a shaking palm and Austin's by her side immediately, their bags in his hands.
"Fuck," He murmurs, staring a little too long at his now dead best friend in front of him. He runs his hands through his hair before grabbing her hand.
"Where's Cassidy?" He asks, looking at the girl beside him.
"I don't know," She mumbles, though her tears.
Austin sighs and places his lips on her forehead, kissing her skin tenderly. "We have to go."
He looks back at Trent then reluctantly pulls her with him towards the door.
Not exactly sure, who or what they're gonna face outside.
So many things happening. reviews are cool.
