Zach

I woke up feeling like complete utter crap. My back hurt from the stone floor (I'd refused to get up and use the bed) and I knew that I shouldn't be an ass anymore and use the bed.

But that wasn't the only reason I felt like crap. Turned out they'd tranquilized me from being irritating. I could feel where the syringe had been stuck into my neck. I rubbed the sore spot, wincing slightly.

I tilted my head right and I saw a figure hunched over in Cammie's cell.

"Hey!" I yelled.

The man turned to me and I saw it wasn't Yeti or Scarface. No, it was far from them. It was Chris Morgan. He gave me a sad smile and said. "Hello, Zach."

I blinked but wiped off any astonishment from my face then focused my attention on Cammie. She was out cold but she looked horrible. Apparently they hadn't tranquilized me for being irritating. They'd done it so that I wouldn't be trouble while they tortured Cammie.

She was bleeding in various places; on her arms, legs, stomach, chest, and along her hairline. Chris didn't bother cleaning the blood away; all he needed to do was stop it, so he was wrapping gauze around the wounds.

"What happened?" I gasped.

He swallowed heavily disbelievingly and shamefully. "Barbed wire, that's what happened."

I could feel my eyes widen. "What? Why? What do they want from her?"

He shrugged. "No idea. They won't tell me since I'm her father."

"Where are they anyway?" I asked, knowing they couldn't be around for him to be speaking so freely to me.

"On a break. I asked for some time alone with my daughter. They've got cameras though to monitor us." He explained, wrapping gauze around her arm now, then moving to her left leg.

He ripped her left pant leg open, revealing a drippy bloody mess.

A fury inside me started to rage. How could they do this to my Cammie? These people were heartless monsters. If I ever got out of this cell I would kill every single one of them.

"I can tell what you're thinking, Zach. One day you're going to escape and murder every single one of them." He turned to me with his icy blue eyes. "Forget that. You are never going to escape. Believe me, if I could help you, I would. But for now, there's no way in hell that's going to happen, so drop any thoughts you have of getting out of here in the near future because it's not going to happen."

I frowned at him. Way to be positive.

Cammie started to stir and she moaned a bit out of pain. Her eyelids trembled as she struggled to open them and she finally did.

Cammie

When my eyes were open I was facing a man who was leaning over me. My immediate response was to defend myself. Well, that would've been my immediate response if I hadn't been so drowsy and out of shape.

Instead I started shrieking and batting my arms around. I scrambled away from him as far as my chain would let me. On my stomach, I crawled away from him but he grasped my leg and pulled me back. I kicked and squirmed but it hurt too much.

"Cameron, stop." When I heard that familiar voice I froze. It was like ice had spread through my body, paralyzing me. I was afraid to turn around and find that I was dreaming, that this wasn't real.

I closed my eyes tightly. "No, this isn't true. You're not here. You're dead, you always have been."

His gentle hand touched my shoulder. "You're not dreaming, I'm really here."

I turned with tear-filled eyes to finally see my dad. The dad I hadn't had for years. The dad I'd believed was dead.

He stroked my hair and brushed it away carefully like I was fragile. Which considering the state I was in, I probably was.

I wasn't sure what I was feeling. I was mad that he'd been gone for so long without letting us know he was alive yet at the same time I was relieved and glad to know he was here.

I threw my arms around his neck but my chained arm wouldn't go far so I hugged him with one arm. I sobbed into his shoulder for a long time and he held me close. I hadn't felt his comforting arms around me ever since I was a little girl. The last time I'd seen him was the day he'd left. Now he was back, and I was never letting him go.

Once again, short chap, sorry. i had my oral french exam on friday and the rest start next friday.

and another thing! i just realized that i know a kid in my school who's name is Zachary (Zach)! So, yeah. I saw him yesterday and i was like "i have to tell the ppl on FanFic!". hes kinda cute from the back but from the front, not really =P

im not sure how many chaps there r left in this story, but im pretty sure i wanna wrap it up soon.

I once started reading a Gallagher FanFic when i didnt have an account, and i didnt remember the title. if anyone recognizes the story im about to explain.

so heres what i remember:

Zach and Cammie are running from the CoC

Zach was driving in the car but then he's gone somehow and Cammie drives off a cliff

Apparently this turns out to be a dream

THATS ALL I REMEMBER!
