A/N: I killed Garcia, now as hard as it may have been for some of you to read, imagine how hard it was for me to write. I love her so much.
"Do you have a plan?" Emily finally whispered, breaking the silence between the two friends, JJ shook her head and bit down on her lip, she couldn't get over the fact her best friend was dead, she couldn't stop the thought that it should have been her.
"JJ, you have been here in two weeks and you haven't thought of an escape plan?" She sighed and looked around the dark room,
"JJ?"
"Just shut up! I can't think!" JJ snarled at her, glaring at the woman before turning back to the wall. She didn't want Emily to hate her, she wanted to run over to her and hug her, wanting to tell her that everything was going to be okay, that they were going to be fine. But at the same time she couldn't help but think that if anything happened to either of them then it would be better this way, if they didn't get on then it wouldn't hurt as much. She sighed and then put her head on her knees, wrapping her arms around her legs as tight as she could.
She could hear Emily move but she didn't look away from the wall, she wondered if she could focus hard enough then the wall would fall down...
She stood up slowly, for the first time in over a week, refusing to look over at Emily, putting every ounce of energy she had into walking over to the wall she had been staring at for the past two weeks. She touched it lightly, knocking on the wall, going around the whole room.
Finally, one part of the wall sounded hollower compared to the rest of the of the room, she looked at Emily and smiled, the first eye contact she had made with the woman since she had been chucked in this room two days ago. Emily smiled back, already knowing what JJ was thinking.
JJ looked around the room and frowned, she had no idea how they could get away with this. She looked around till her eyes settled on a loose bedpost, grabbing it quickly, looking over at the door, telling Emily to keep watch. She hit the wall as hard as she could, knowing that they would be coming down soon, she had to be quick. She closed her eyes at the thought of seeing all her friends and family, then opening them when Kevin and Morgan came into her mind, she couldn't tell them. She just couldn't see the look on their face, all that hate, all the blame. She stopped banging and turned around,
"What are we going to say to Kevin? To Morgan? To everyone else?" She croaked out, shaking her head as heavy tears fell down her face and hit the ground, Emily sighed,
"I don't know but unless we want to end up the same way, we have to do this okay? We will think of all of that when we get out of here, come on." She walked up to JJ and took the post out of her hands, JJ nodded and looked at the door, she didn't want it to open, she couldn't stand another beating, another rape... another anything.
They hadn't heard them yet, they could be out. They were going to break down the door at some point, they were going to kill them. Then they were going to end up the same way as Garcia. JJ wondered if it was better that way, if she was better off dead. Maybe that would be the only way to forget everything they had put her through. Maybe all the pain would go away if she was dead.
"Go grab another one." Emily whispered, pulling JJ out of her thoughts as she nodded and ran over to the bed, trying her best to quickly unscrew another post, she couldn't tear her eyes away from the door, how long would it be until they heard them? She wondered how long it would be after they heard them that they opened the door.
She ran over to Emily and nodded at her, banging as hard as she could on the wooden part of the wall. She had a plan, once the plaster was off they could tear through it and hopefully there would be the light, and they could run as fast as they could.
She looked over at Emily suddenly worried, they hadn't heard them, the door wasn't moving, there was no shouting, no threats and no gun shots. JJ looked at her and then at the hole they had made, maybe they were waiting on the other side. Maybe they knew about this thing and they knew this was going to happen, maybe this was just a trap. She thought about a gun waiting for them on the other side, her eyes widened with fer as she stared at Emily, suddenly stopping, almost dropping the post.
"Don't stop, we don't have time."
"What if it's a trap?"
"Then we die, and if we stay here we die. This is our only chance, okay?" JJ nodded and gulped, she knew that she was right and she carried on hitting the wall.
After that everything was one huge blur, she remembered a hole, some grass, no men and no guns. She could remember running, running faster than she ever had before and then nothing...
Everything went black
But they had escaped,
They had run,
They had hope,
But just for a moment
