Chapter 16
Looking For Angels
Sometimes crawl, fall, but I stand up cause I'm afraid to sleep
And open my eyes to a new day, with all new problems and all new pain
All the faces are filled with so much anger
Losing our dignity and hope from fear of danger

Cat stepped out of the taxi cab in the Mission Bay Park Parking Lot in San Diego, CA, her eyes wincing from the sun rays. It was sunset, and people where everywhere. She paid the driver and he left her standing there. She looked around, and a man in a black suit came up to her. "Come with me, Mrs. Oliver." He said as he passed her. Cat quickly speeded after him. She had to power walk to keep up with the much larger man, and he held the door open to a limo for her. "Get in." He demanded when Cat hesitated for a minute. Cat gulped, but did as she was told. She sat on the side of the limo, and the man slid in and shut the door. "Drive!" He yelled suddenly, making Cat jump. The limo started and they drove out of the parking lot and onto the freeway.
Cat's lip trembled. "Um…where are we going?" She asked timidly.
"The Airport." He said in an emotionless tone. "We are heading to Russia."
RUSSIA? Cat screamed in her mind, but didn't lose her cool on the outside. She just nodded and looked out her window. Beck, please be okay.
"CAT! CAT! CAT! WAKE UP, CAT!"
Cat groaned as she attempted to move her body, but she laid on the cold, stone floor like a rock. Her body shook, trying to sit up, but she was too weak to even make it an inch off the ground.
"CAT! Look at me, baby! I'm begging you! Please!"
Attempting to move her head up a little, Cat gasped in pain, falling back down, but this time she had a good view of Beck, and his ankles were chained to the opposite wall. He was on his knees, trying all that he could to reach his wife, but he just couldn't. The chains were too strong. He sobbed as he saw her beaten face. Cat blinked, but even that hurt to do, so she left her eyes closed again. "Beck?" She called out softly, but coughed violently at the stinging pain in her throat.
Beck tried to reach for her again, but like the other times, it didn't do anything good. All his attempts did was make his heart break a little more every time. "Cat, can you talk some more to me? I have to hear your voice!" He said desperately.
Cat tried to, but couldn't. "No." She coughed out, still unable to move or even open her eyes.
"No, no, no, you can try!" Beck pleaded, his voice croaking. "Please, Cat! Try for me!"
Cat sighed shakily, but that seemed to hurt her ribs to do so. "Beck…" She looked to him again, forcing her eyes open, but immediately closed again, unable to keep them open any longer. "Help, please."
Beck's cries were even worse as he sat on all fours, facing the floor. "I'm trying, but I can't right now." He said in a depressed voice.
Cat could already feel herself getting lightheaded and her vision blurred when she opened her eyes again. "Beck…I can't hold on."
"YES, YOU CAN!" Beck growled out, losing whatever was left of his sanity.
Cat heard a door slam open and she forced herself to turn her head and she saw the blonde woman, Lucy, walk in with a sick smirk. Cat whimpered. "Hello, Mrs. Oliver." Lucy greeted, walking towards the weak woman on the ground.
Beck couldn't take anymore. "DON'T YOU DARE GO NEAR HER!"
"Shut up, or else I'll hit her!" Lucy snapped at the man.
Beck shook his head and backed down. "No, please, don't."
"Then zip it." Lucy seethed, and then focused her attention back to Cat. She kneeled down to her.
Cat let out a shaky breath. "What did you do to me?" She asked, barely in a whisper.
"Drugged you." Lucy answered almost immediately, sounding as if it was nothing new. "You were putting up one hell of a fight, but I had some guy hold you down while I stuck you with a syringe of a drowsy liquid drug."
"You bitch!" Beck snarled out.
Lucy glared at him. "I warned you." She threatened as she stood up. She kicked Cat's side with the heel of her high heel shoe, and it made a crack sound when it collided with her ribcage. Cat couldn't hold back the strained scream of pain it send through her body; the force was so powerful to her that it rolled her over onto her back. "Don't interrupt me anymore, Beckett, or else she'll get much worse. I'm losing my patience with you."
Beck glared daggers right back at her, seeing nothing but red in his sight. "Then kill me if you hate me so much, and let her go!" Suddenly, Cat was given a kick to her face, making her nose break and a cut on her cheek. "Stop!"
"THEN SHUT UP!" Lucy roared at him. "This is my chance to finally get my revenge and I will NOT have you ruin this for me! I want to enjoy torturing her!"
Beck just collapsed onto the floor, his sobs were deafening.
"Now if you notice, Mrs. Oliver, you're ankles are chained to this wall." Lucy pointed out, and Cat weakly lifted her head to confirm it. "You're going to remain bolted here until you die. No food, no bathroom, no fluids, and no sleep. Every time you doze off, one of my men keeping watch will come in and beat you awake."
Cat wanted to cry again, but she gave up on that idea.
"Your husband will be force fed, forced to drink fluids, taken to the bathroom 5 times a day, and he'll sleep at night."
Cat sighed in relief. "Good." He won't suffer.
Beck shook his head. "I won't do any of that!"
"Oh yes, you will." Lucy walked up to him. "We'll handcuff your hands behind your back as we feed you, give you fluids through a syringe, drag your ass to the bathroom and you won't leave that bathroom until you do your business, and you'll be given a sleeping pill and it will be forced into your mouth every night."
Beck slammed his head onto the stone floor, crying again.
"And the second your wife is on the verge of death, you'll be allowed out of chains to say your last goodbyes." Lucy chuckled with delight. "When she dies, you'll be taken outside with her, given a shovel, and you can bury her yourself. Once that's done, you'll be taken to Jade West's home and start your new life as a single father." She shrugged. "Simple as that." And she turned away from the couple. "I'll be on my way now." She looked over her shoulder to Cat with a sickening grin. "Have fun burning in hell, Mrs. Oliver." And she left, with her henchmen locking the cell door after her.
Cat groaned as she forced herself to look to Beck. "I'm going to die here."
Beck gulped as he looked panicked. "No, no. No, you're not."
Cat narrowed her eyes. "What are you thinking?"
"I have a plan." Beck looked back at his restraints. "I just have to get out of these first."
So here's the reason why we have no clue when I'll update next: I'm in labor. No lie. A month and a half early. I told you guys my kid wanted out! And why am I on my laptop and updating FanFics? Because my labor pain isn't too bad to the point I can't do anything. They have Wi-Fi here anyways. And I just went into labor like 3 hours ago. They said this kid isn't coming out for another few hours or so (not sure if I'm okay with that or not…). And yes, I'll post up a picture of my newborn son when I get a chance. Probably after I get home with him from the hospital. Anyways, wish me luck on this whole giving birth thing. It's my first time, so I don't know what the hell I'm doing. My teenage brother is here with me, supporting me. He's on his laptop too. I'm not the only one distracted, lol. I'm so excited for Nathaniel Fredrick (sorry, but you can't know my last name), who's with me there? :)
THANK YOU FOR THE REVIEWS AGAIN! Let's see how many we can get this time? No flames. NOT today. Lol.

PREVIEW FOR CHAPTER 17: Collide
He opened the cell with the keys and Cat groaned, looking over. She gasped when Beck ran to her and gave her the keys. "Unlock these cuffs, baby." He whispered.
Cat painfully did what she was told and when Beck was free, he took the keys from her and worked on her chained ankles. "Beck…"
Beck unlocked her restraints and then lifted her up into his arms, since she was still too weak to even move. "I have you, girl. I have you." He muttered and then walked out of the cell, with the keys still in his hands as well.
