Ethan's POV
I slowly opened my eyes to the world around me. I was in some kind of forest. It was actually kind of serene, no sound or distractions. It was then I remembered the crash. But I wasn't dead. Or at least I wasn't dead yet. I could still feel my body. And if this was heaven it wasn't as empty and clear as Sarah had told me. Wait. Sarah.
"Sarah!" I attempted to yell. But it came out as a raspy squeak. Either way, I heard footsteps coming my way. Did Sarah actually save me? But that can't be; she watched me fall from the plane still in the charm.
"Ethan, you're finally awake." I heard her speak. Though I still wasn't sure it was really Sarah. How did she escape the charm? But sure enough, soon I was looking at the angelic face associated with my dream girl. Oh wait, did I say dream girl I meant just plain ole' Sarah. I'm not like in love with her or anything. What?
"Sarah, you-we survived?" I squeaked yet again. I still wasn't doing too well with the speaking thing.
"When I banged the door open on the plane, I finally realized the charm. But I hadn't noticed you falling until you almost hit the water. So I jumped, and caught you which ultimately made you pass out because of the force. I'm so sorry I tried to kill you. I don't know what I was thinking, even if I was charmed." She said, smiling a small apologetic smile.
"It's not your fault at all. But-But what happened to the others on the plane?" I asked, not sure I wanted to know. She turned her face away but I could still see the tear slip past her cheek. And I also noticed she was covered in scars and blood.
"Sarah, what happened?" I tried again. Now she looked me in the eye.
"They're all dead. I caught you, dropped you here and went to see if I could stop the crash. But I was too late. I actually watched the plane hit the other end of the lake and burst into flames." She said, letting yet another tear escape.
"This is Jesse and Trent's fault, not yours." I said, trying to sit up and embrace her. When I finally hugged her close she erupted in tears. She blamed herself.
Austin's POV
"Where is she?" I mumbled to myself thinking about Ally. Jesse could've killed her already. And if she's dead I don't want to live. Every time I heard a sound, I thought it might've been Trent or Jesse coming to kill me next. Or finalize my thoughts about Ally. But no one has come in hours. Not for the small rations of food I sometimes get, not for scheduled torturing, nothing. That's what makes me worried. Is Ally putting up a struggle? Of course she is, she wouldn't accept death so easy. Is that why Jesse and Trent haven't come? They're trying to subdue Ally? No, I shouldn't think that way. Ally will survive, and come to save us all! Right?
"Good evening guest," Someone spoke into the room. I knew that voice. I just managed to turn my head enough to watch Trent enter the room, a whip in hand. Just when I thought I was going to sleep without a thorough beating.
"What did you do to her," I said, fully understanding that talking to him without saying 'master' would make my whipping worse.
"Who's her?" Trent asked sarcastically. I grimaced.
"You know who she is." I stated. He shuffled his feet and spoke.
"Jesse's taken care of her," He paused, muffling. "Even though I clearly told him to wait for disposal." I heard him finish. No. I just couldn't accept that she could be dead. I'm not ok with that.
"He didn't kill her. He couldn't have." I whispered, trying not to cry. I wasn't going to believe him until he showed me her body one last time.
Ally's POV
I was screaming when it happened. A freak storm that blocked out the sun with its clouds. It was pouring over Jesse and I and I was finally strong again. So I took my chance. While Jesse was caught off guard by the sudden rainfall I escaped his grasp and hit him as hard as I could, causing him to fall back against the asphalt road we stood in. But I knew I couldn't stay for battle, any minute now the rain would stop and I'd be burning in the sun's rays again. So now here I am. Running through the hallways of the facility I was kept in toward Austin's room. I may be wet from head to toe and in pain from my almost death, but the most important thing now was saving Austin before Jesse got to me again. I left him there on the ground and got through the doorway we came from just as the rain was beginning to stop. All I can hope for is that it stopped fully and the sun came out again before Jesse could get back in the building. He did have a protective cloak on earlier but it came off when I punched him. I just need to get to Austin. But every door I reach is the wrong one. They're all either mechanical closets or empty storage rooms for this place. Wherever this place is. I was pulled out of my thoughts by girly screams coming from the third door down on the right or the hall I ran through now. (Vampire hearing can sometimes be a real plus) I immediately knew it was Austin. No one else I knew screamed like that. So my motivations drove me faster down the hall until I came to an abrupt halt at the door to Austin. I was about to go in when I heard Trent's voice.
"She's dead, and soon you will be too Austin. Do you hear me! T-Fame has finally won! It's over." He shouted, and I rammed the door down tackling Trent in the process. Austin stopped screaming and looked from me to the unconscious Trent in awe.
"Ally! You're here! You're alive!" He yelped, as I got up and walked to his tied down frame. I quickly unfastened the bounds that held him and helped him to his feet. It was then that we took the minute to embrace and share a small kiss. We were going to survive at last. But I let go quick, pulling him behind me tiptoed out the door that Trent was still under. As soon as we got past the threshold Austin knowingly jumped onto my back and held tight as I ran farther into the facility. We needed to find a way out besides the one I had left Jesse at. He could still be there and I couldn't risk us being caught again.
Jesse's POV
"They got away!" I yelled pointlessly to the empty room I'd finally arrived at. At least stupid Trent got a fine beating. He's still lying there under the door I don't feel like moving. But I can't let them leave. Anastasia will kill me for letting them escape death. Wait a minute, I know the perfect way to destroy them. Take something or someone they love and they'll come running to save them. I guess its time to give Trish and Dez a call.
"MWAHAHAHAHA!" I laughed out loud. This will be perfect. Maybe I'll even throw in a special guest for Ally. Preferably someone she met here not too long ago. Someone like Ethan Morgan.
Dez's POV
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Ah yes, the magic of yogurt. I just wish I wasn't eating it while Austin and Ally are missing. They've been gone for days now. Trish and I have looked everywhere and already started a police search. Austin's parents know, but Ally's dad is still in the dark. Trish thought telling him this news would be a bad idea. She thinks we should see if we can find her first.
"Ok, thanks. Bye." Trish said, angrily hanging up her cell phone. Here it comes.
"Oh those stupid officers haven't found them yet! It's been days!" She exclaims. So I try to calm her down.
"Don't worry, I'm sure we'll find them soon." I say smoothie-ly. She glares at me. I just have to stay calm. I'm not going cry in front of her. I can't. We will find them. We have to. I look at her but she doesn't answer. Instead she just looks down at her cheetah print flats with a sigh. I want to comfort her but I don't know how. It still feels like I'm trying to convince myself they'll come back home. So, I just stay quiet.
A/N: So this chapter has a bit of everyone's thoughts. I wanted to add Dez's POV in there because we really haven't heard from him and it's important considering Jesse's planning to hunt them down now. What do you all think? Will Austin and Ally escape? Will Trish and Dez be captured and killed? What will Sarah and Ethan do?
