Chapter Fourteen

Vickie, Nick and Carly all quickly walked through the tunnel.

They covered their ears when they walked past a machine making loud noises.

Vickie stopped walking as the lights stopped in front of them. She turned to Nick who looked down the tunnel. "I can't see anything!" He shouted, trying to be heard over the machine.

He looked at the walls and noticed switches. "There's gotta be a light here somewhere." He commented, flipping the switches.

Carly and Vickie joined him, testing out all the switches. "I wonder what these switches are for!" Vickie shouted.

They kept trying until finally Nick found the right one. The lights down the tunnel all came on at once, making them wince at the sudden brightness.

They continued down the tunnel until they came to a lightly lit room. Walking forward, they all looked around, frowning.

Vickie saw something out of the corner of her eye and turned, her eyes widening.

Dalton's jacket.

"N-nick!" She shouted, catching his attention. "Look, Dalton's jacket." She reached out and touched it, not believing her eyes.

Nick stared at the jacket before moving towards the figure in the middle of the room, covered in wax.

"Nick…" Carly called, softly.

Nick ignored her and stopped in front of the wax figure.

Vickie took a few hesitating steps forward but stopped, not wanting to go any further. "What the fuck have they done to him?" Vickie whispered, her hand shaking.

Carly looked over at Vickie just as Nick tried to move the cage around Dalton's head. It snapped and Vickie's whole body flinched.

"No!" Carly whispered, tears falling down her cheeks.

Nick looked as though he was going to be sick and lightly turned to connect eyes with Vickie. She stared at him blankly, blinking slowly.

"Vickie…" He slowly whispered, his eyes full of sorrow.

Carly lifted a hand to her mouth and went over to Nick, clasping onto him tightly. "No, Nick, please!" She said, sobbing into his shoulder.

Vickie stared at them before her eyes flickered back to Dalton's body.

'Dalton' She thought, softly. 'They killed Dalton…'

Her hand twitched as she felt anger begin to take place over the sadness she felt.

Nick looked back up at her and saw her eyes darken with anger.

"Vickie-" He started softly, but was cut off when he saw someone come out of the tunnel.

Carly turned and gasped as she saw the figure. "That's Vincent!" She shouted, as the guy pulled out two long knifes.

Vickie's head turned slowly and watched as Nick pushed the table in front of them straight into Vincent. He retaliated by slicing Nick in the back with his knife.

Carly went at him with her baseball bat, as Vickie turned and picked up a stone tray beside her, dropping the knife in her hand.

Vincent grabbed onto the bat and held his knife to Carly's throat. He then swung her around, throwing her down to the ground.

Vickie, with the heavy tray in her hand, quickly went at Vincent, slamming it harshly against his back. He faltered for a second before turning to attack Vickie.

Nick saw this and quickly charged at him, stopping him from hurting her.

Vickie quickly went to Carly, checking to see if she was okay.

Nick and Vincent both wrestled for a second before Nick got the upper hand and threw him to the floor.

Nick stood and made his way over to the two, quickly picking up Carly. "Come on, Carly, move it!" They moved to the door and Nick stopped, going over to some chains and pulling them, causing burning hot wax to spill onto the floor.

Vincent put his hand up to block out the fire, but saw he couldn't get to the other side of the room.

"Nick, let's get out of here. Hurry!" Carly shouted.

Nick ran over to them and they all ran up the stairs, going through the rooms, trying to find an exit.

Vickie stopped when she ran into Nick's back. She looked to see what he was looking at and gasped.

"No. Oh, my God! Wade." Carly groaned, staring at Wade's wax figure.

"Come on!" Nick said, pulling her along.

Vickie opened the door in front of them and stepped through, stopping when she saw Bo.

Bo chuckled. "Well, hello there, darling. Here I was hoping you'd still be tied up to my bed." He said smirking.

Nick ran at him, taking him to the floor. "You sick fuck!"

They got up and started throwing punches, but Bo quickly threw Nick at a sofa and few wax figures.

Carly next went at him and slammed the baseball bat into his back. Bo shouted in pain and turned, punching her in the face. Carly flew backwards, landing on the floor, the bat falling out of her hands.

Vickie clenched her jaw, breathing heavily. She went towards him, picking up the bat as she went, and glared as he smirked at her. "Now what you going to do?" He drawled. "Darling."

"Mother fucker!" She shouted as she swiped the bat at his head, catching his jaw. She lifted the bat to hit him again, when he caught her off guard by charging at her. She was smacked down to the ground, her head snapping to the side as he punched her. The bat had fallen out of her hands and was too far for her to reach.

Bo stood up and delivered a swift kick to her side, sending her sprawling again.

Fire was erupting around them, coming up through the floor.

Nick let out a growl and jumped from the chairs to where Bo was standing. They started delivering punches, as Vickie held her side, feeling winded. She lifted herself to her knees, glaring as Bo picked Nick up and held him by the neck.

She stood up fully and quickly went over. She jumped up and threw her arm around Bo's neck, squeezing tightly. She heard him gurgle and watched as Nick put his hand on the arrow on his chest, twisting it painfully.

Bo started shouting in pain and slammed his head back into Vickie's face, making her stagger backwards and fall to the floor.

Nick got Bo on the ground and started punching him, not realizing that Bo had a knife in his hand. He cried out as Bo stabbed his leg with the knife.

Vickie wiped her bleeding lip and scrambled over to the baseball bat she had dropped. She saw Carly stand up, looking as though she was going to throw herself at Bo. Vickie held up her hand to stop her and quickly turned back to Nick.

She watched as Bo stood up, heading to Nick. She quickly went and slammed the bat into his face, stopping him from going near him. She delivered another blow that knocked him to the floor.

Carly quickly ran past them and went to Nick, seeing if he was okay.

"Fuck you! You fucking asshole!" Vickie screamed, slamming the baseball bat continuously into his face. "I'm. Not. Your. Fucking. Darling!" She shouted, hitting him with each word.

Carly stood up and went next to Vickie, who was breathing heavily; staring down at Bo's mangled face. Carly delivered a swift kick to his body, wanting him to pay for what he had done.

"Vickie, behind you!" Nick shouted, staring as Vincent walked into the room.

Vickie turned and brought the bloodied bat up, ready to hit him. She started to move backwards, shoving Carly behind her.

Vincent quickly walked over to his brother, kneeling down beside him.

"Come on. Get up! Please!" Carly begged, trying to get Nick to stand up. Vickie was standing in front of them, protectively, holding the baseball bat tightly.

Vincent let out a restrained yell, mourning his brother. He suddenly turned his head to look at Vickie and Carly.

Vickie tensed and held the bat even tighter. "Run! Go, Vickie, Carly! Run!" Nick shouted, shoving Carly away from him.

Vickie ran over to the stairs and hit the chain that was on fire out of the way. She grabbed Carly's arm and pushed her in front of her up the stairs. She heard Vincent's loud footsteps behind her and quickened her pace up the stairs.

"Hey, Vincent…" Nick called, trying to get his attention. "Hey! Vincent!"

Vincent ignored him and continued up the stairs.

Vickie turned and saw him coming up. Her eyes widened and she shoved Carly forwards, not letting her stop. Her eyes quickly caught Nick's and saw them fill with pain.

"I swear to God, if you hurt her..." Nick growled at Vincent, struggling to stand up.

Breathing heavily, Vickie turned and ran up the next set of stairs, Vincent following closely.

"Vincent!" Nick screamed after him.
