"Would you look at that Hannah?" Daniel winked at the girl as he climbed back into his car after taking a short two second walk to the ATM and drawing out as much money as he could from it and the gaining a receipt.

"Daddy did good" he said, throwing the receipt of how much money he had in his bank onto her lap and then starting the engine. Hannah simply went wide eyed at the amount which read fifty five thousand dollars. Daniel had already had some money in his bank, but Don had just managed to top that up tremendously.

"No" Hannah shook her head "he shouldn't have done it"

"He'd have hated to see his little girl die though, sweetie" Daniel chuckled, running a hand along her arm as he drove calmly, flicking his sunglasses onto his eyes as he felt a new air of confidence enter his body.

"I'd have preferred death than being stuck here with you" Hannah said through gritted teeth and he simply just chuckled at her, looking at the red traffic light;

"No you wouldn't babe" he whistled lowly "you definitely wouldn't"

...

"So we are broke now?" Jess asked as Don walked back out the bank and he shrugged dejectedly. He wore a normal white shirt with his jacket over, but there was no tie, his hair was all messed up and his eyes looked tired due to a lack of sleep.

"I took a loan out to keep some money in our account" Don whispered lowly as he climbed into the car and shut the door, looking as Jess did the same thing;

"This is horrible" Jess sighed loudly, wiping away another tear. Recently she had been all over the place and now with the kidnapping of her stepdaughter happening she had become even worse.

"Horrible isn't the word I would use"

...

"You wait here Hannah" Daniel said, tying the girl to the bedpost of another motel "I'm going to take a quick walk...and once again, don't try to escape, I picked out a motel where no one would pick"

"Heaven forbid I do anything against your will" she said sarcastically and he chuckled at her lowly;

"Just like him" he whispered before walking out. As soon as he had left the room Hannah began trying to put her plan into action. Slowly she managed to drag her hands to the end of the metal headboard, allowing herself to stand up before she looked down at it, noting it wasn't strongly connected to its base. She allowed her hands to slide down the cold metal, grasping at where it was weakly connected to the base. Awkwardly, she fiddled with trying to make the metal pole move from its stand, but the drawers at the side of the bed prevented her from making a decent attempt. Finally, she managed to hear something snap and the headboard came unconnected with its base, freeing Hannah from the metal. Quickly, she sat up and looked around the room, wondering what to do. And then she saw it. It was like gold dust. A phone. There was a phone on the dresser. She quickly rushed over to it and picked it up, balancing it between her ear and shoulder as her tied hands pressed the buttons of 911, pleading for the phone to work.

"911 what's your emergency?" she was finally asked.

"Oh God!" she shouted down the phone "I need the police...this man named Daniel Cook...he kidnapped me and he has met at someplace called Charlie's Motel...somewhere in Virginia"

"Okay ma'am, are you hurt?" she was asked.

"She will be soon" a voice said, snapping the phone from Hannah's ear and placing it back onto the stand. Hannah backed away from Daniel's angry eyes as he advanced towards her;

"What you playing at Hannah?" he asked her "calling the cops like that"

"Trying to get away from you!" Hannah yelled, backing against the wall, seeing him walk towards her. As he raised his hands in an attempt to pin her against the wall, but Hannah quickly moved around him, allowing him to crash straight into the wall as she moved over for the shut door, her shaking hands fiddling with the lock on it as he moved back to her, grabbing her around the waist and dragging her to the floor as he drew his knife from his pocket.

"No!" Hannah called out "Get off me!" she yelled, wriggling under his body as he placed the knife in front of her eyes.

"You had your chance Hannah" he said "and you blew it"
