Maniac POV

"Hey, weren't there four uniforms hanging here before?" I ask my partner. There was only one now; three were missing. "Yeah, there were . . . I don't know, maybe someone needed them. I'm sure it's nothing," he answers. Being the new guy, I just agreed even though something seemed out of place. "Okay," I answer, and we continue on our way.

Jason's POV

I can't help but smirk as that little brat Skylar tries to break free of the ropes holding her. I had been waiting for months for this moment, building up her and her father's trust and leading them on to get to what was happening right now. That pesky kid Jack had almost ruined everything, but I had infiltrated his little rescue attempt, and now he was bound up and unconscious next to Skylar and would be killed along with them. Then, when they were gone, we would forge David's (A/N David is Mr. Larks if you forgot) will so that we could gain access to his entire fortune. Everything was working out quite nicely. I heard the door creak behind me and three figures in black uniforms walk in, with even their face masks on. One of them says, "You've been relieved, Mr. Jason," glancing at Skylar and Jack. I can only see this guy's eyes, but he looks kind of worried, and a little angry. Why would he? They were just a couple of bratty kids. Hey, whatever. I walk out of the room and leave the other three guys to watch over them, and as I do I hear Jack groan. I smirk again. Oh, I wish I could see his reaction when he realizes what happened to him and his precious friends. He will be so mad! Oh well, it was someone else's problem now.

Jack's POV

Slowly the world comes back to me, and I feel a bad pain in my stomach, worse than before. It takes a second for me to realize what happened, and then I feel anger flow through me. My plan had gotten messed up and gotten everyone into trouble. I can hear talking. It sounds kind of muffled, so I force myself to wake up fully and open my eyes. I blink a few times to clear my vision, and I see the door close as someone walks out. There are three Maniacs in full uniform watching as he goes, and then they turn to me. I try to get up but the pain in my stomach prevents me from moving much, and the fact that I am tied up. I glare at them and hope they get the message that I hate them with every fiber of my being and that if they hurt me, my friends, or Skylar's dad in any way, they will highly regret it. They appear slightly scared and also confused, then they seem to realize something and reach up to their faces, pulling their masks off. My expression turns from angry, to surprised, to happy when I realize that the "Maniacs" are really Rudy, Eddie, and Jerry.

I try to smile, but it doesn't work very well since I'm gagged. Rudy kneels down next to me and undoes the gag, and then he unties me while Eddie and Jerry untie and ungag Skylar and her father. They both get up, and Skylar runs to hug Mr. Larks. I try once more to get up, but again I feel excruciating pain in my stomach and I lean back up against the wall, groaning again. I also feel hotter than before . . . Rudy's eyebrows knit together in concern. "Jack, you look awful," he says. I thank him sarcastically. "Stay here with Skylar and her father, Eddie, Jerry, and I are going to get Kim and Milton." I scan the room with my eyes and for the first time realize Kim and Milton aren't in it. If those morons hurt Kim (and Milton) . . . I nod weakly as they cautiously open a door on the other end of the room.

I hear Kim yell, a thump, Rudy moan in pain, and Jerry, Eddie, and Milton laughing. Okay, I knew they were okay at least. "Geeze, Kim, you've proven you can defend yourself even tied up," Rudy says. A minute later all of them come into the room. Kim sees me and she immediately runs over, looking worried. "Jack, are you okay?" she asks, touching my arm caringly. If possible, she looks more worried, and removes her hand from my arm, moving her hand to my forehead. "Jack, you have a fever, can I look at your injury?" she asks. I nod again. She lifts up the bottom of my shirt and undoes the makeshift bandage (The sleeve Rudy ripped off of his jacket. I look down at it: it's not bleeding, but the skin around it is a deep red color. "Jack, I think this is getting infected, we need to get you to a hospital like now." Her and Rudy both grab one of my hands and pull me up. I yelp in pain, and my vision flickers momentarily, but I refuse to pass out again. Rudy and Kim both pull one of my arms over the back of their necks and put their other arm on my back, supporting my weight and helping me to walk, but it still feels like my stomach is on fire. Mr. Larks, who has thanked us multiple times already, opens the door slowly and peeks out, making sure the hallway is clear, and when he tells us it is we get out of the room and out of the window. It's really hard for me to walk, so Rudy and Kim end up making a kind of seat for me out of their arms and carry me, which is embarrassing but much appreciated. We hear footsteps in the building behind us, and then shouting: They've realized we're gone. "Run!" Milton yells.

Kim's POV

"Run!" Milton yells. It's kind of hard for Rudy and me since we are carrying Jack, and I can tell we are hurting him as we pick up our pace, but it's necessary if we want to get out of this place alive. I can hear people behind us, chasing us, and I know they are close. "Does anybody have their cell phone!?" I yell. I know Rudy does, but he can't take it out because he is helping me carry Jack. "I do!" Eddie yells back. "Try calling the cops! They better be able to make it now!" I shout angrily. He gets ahold of them.

Minutes later, we are out of breath and dangerously close to getting caught when we hear sirens in the distance. We keep running, getting closer to the closest road, and I hear the footsteps fade and disappears as our chasers realize they will not be able to catch us before we make it to the police. We finally make it to the road. Jack is taken away from us and loaded into an ambulance as the police ask the rest of us questions. We answer quickly so that we can get it over with, because we are desperate to head off after the ambulance that had just taken Jack away. After they are finished, we realize we don't have a car to get there, but the police are actually understanding. One of them gives us all a lift while the rest of them heads to check out the building we had just escaped from. We get to Seaford Hospital in about 10 minutes, and we begin the long wait in the waiting room, only able to guess how Jack is doing.
