Hey! Sorry I haven't updated in a while... I've been busy with all these projects I've been getting. I hope you enjoy this chapter! WARNING: Contains depressing scenes. If you don't want to cry, don't read this chapter. If you are ready for a huge shocker, keep reading! BTW, this chapter might seem a little rushed. I've been having a little writer's block.

Ally watched TV silently. She had a slight frown on her face as she watched the 6:00 news. She was concentrating on what the people were saying. "Breaking News! Criminals spotted at Holiday Inn in New York City. The whole building is evacuated." Ally paid no attention to this at first, but suddenly remembered where they were. "Oh my gosh. We are trapped in a hotel with a bunch of criminals. This is bad." She ran into the other room to get the others. "TRISH! DEZ! WE NEED TO LEAVE NOW!"

She searched frantically for them, but neither of them were in sight. After she gave up, she decided to take a different approach and wake up Ethan. "ETHAN! WAKE UP! WE NEED TO LEAVE!"

"Five more minutes, mommy..." Ethan was murmuring in his sleep. "WE don't have time for that, now! Wake up!" Ethan immediately snapped up. "Why did you disturb me?" Ally's breath quickened as she tried to haul Ethan out of bed. "I said, WHY DID YOU DISTURB ME?!" Ally still didn't answer as she dragged him down to the elevator. "Ally, you do realize I'm in my boxers and your in your nightshirt, right?" Ally finally decided to turn to Ethan. "Look, I need you to bear with me here. We are trapped in this hotel with dangerous criminals and some police. We will get in trouble no matter who we meet! We need to hide!"

Ethan suddenly understood as the elevator started to slowly move down. "Come on! Can't this thing go any faster?" After a second or two, the elevator doors opened and Ally and Ethan sprinted out. They turned corners and steered around tables until they were finally out of the lobby. They continued streaking towards the panic room until they starteds hearing voices. "I'm sure they're not far away. I heard some people down in the lobby. Let's go check it out." Now, it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. "The police are after us. They think we're the criminals." Ally turned towards Ethan with a panicked look on her face.

"Well, uh... we could always start going back up the elevator!" Ally thought about this for a second, but quickly stopped when she heard the police coming. "Okay, let's go with your plan. Run!" The pair quickly sprinted to the nearest elevator. They waited for the door to open, and then pushed the button as soon as they scurried in. "They're catching up!" Ally tried to shut the door, but it was too late. A policeman had reached out his hand and tazed Ethan. (I don't really know how to spell that.) Ethan was out like a light.

The police man quickly withdrew his hand before it got crushed in the doors. "Ethan? What happened? Wake up!" She started to REALLY panic now. "How could things get any worse?" Unfortunately, she spoke too soon. There was a loud snap, and the elevator started plummeting down.

Austin's POV

I'm seriously biting my finger nails now. I heard from the police that the criminals had planted a bomb somewhere in the hotel. I'm honestly not sure if it is safe for the police to be in there, considering the bomb will go off in about a minute. I sure hope everyone is okay.

Nobody's POV

The place shook with a loud thud indicating that the elevator had hit the bottom. "Ethan, wake up! I need you to help me! WAKE UP!" Ally tried everything. She even tried slapping him, but nothing worked. She was just about to give up, when a miracle took place. "Ally? Is that you? I just felt a shock and I fell. I don't think I could handle a tazer." Ally smiled gratefully at him. Little did she know, that was the last time she would ever smile to him.

Suddenly, and ear-splitting BOOM shook the hotel. "No way." Immediately, rubble started falling down. "What's happening?!" They braced theirselves for something big. They were about to relax when the impact struck and the whole roof came crashing down on top of them.

This chapter was honestly the hardest one to write. I can now safely say that there will be no more chapters as sad as this one except maybe the next one. Keep reviewing! I will post the next chapter as soon as I get 115 reviews! R&R!
