See? I said I'd update today! =D

Thank you to those who reviewed. •-•

So well done to guestjojo (who is a *GASP* guest) for guessing that the correct answer for the code.

I shall update the next chapter tomorrow...

It will also be the last chapter...

T.T

I wake up with a thud, my face planted on the floor. I groan as pain shoots through me, and I roll onto my back.

Goodbye? What could that possibly mean? Is it another one of those weird warnings? Is it some sort of prediction for the future?

Another possibility hits me suddenly.

Was it from dream boy?

For goodness sake, I sound pathetic. 'dream boy' ugh. But in all seriuosness... Does that mean he said goodbye? Is he now... Gone?

*GASP*

Am I done wearing so many gosh-damned dresses?! (Not important.)

I sit up and slowly rub my head where a pounding headache mocks me. I take in my surroundings and sigh. When did life get so complicated? I wish i could go back to the good ol' times.

One moment I'm happily with my friends, choking on mystery meat and now I have a brother and best friend held captive by some goddes looking psycho.

Yep. Just my everyday life. I've got an appointment booked next Tuesday where I'm hit by a London double decker bus driven by Elvis Presley.

Sarcasm makes people more creative they say.

My door bursts open and a frazzled looking Cole stares at me. "They've finished planning the rescue! C'mon kiddo! Freshen up a bit first then come down, they need you to take them to the cottage!" I nod at him and sprints off downstairs.

I huff and try to snuggle deeper into my coat. When did it get so damn cold? I swear it was sunny last week! Now, I can actually see my breath.

I point to a barely visible pathway concealed by trees, and our smart-alec detective takes the lead. I scoff at the way he carries himself, that man thinks he is soo important. The way he leads the team onwards while I trail behind him is infuriating. "Be careful everyone! Due to this unknown location, you never know what you might run into!" He proclaims. I roll my eyes. He's leading a team of flippin' professionals for crying out loud! I doubt any one of them will do anything as stupid as to endanger him or herself and those around them.

The detective takes another haughty step and I snigger as his face makes contact with a low branch. "Watch out for the trees!" I call out behind him. He purses his lips at me and continues on. I can hear the stifled giggles from the rest of the team and I smirk, feeling quite pleased with myself.

We eventually reach the cottage and they quietly form to their positions. The detective slowly counts down with his fingers.

And BAM! He freakin' karate chops the door down and they barge into the cosy building. A lot of shouts and crashes are heard from the cottage and I fidget nervously outside.

My curiously gets the better of me and I peep my head into the scene. What I see surprised me greatly.

There Luna stands, smirking at the rescue team. She may be cuffed and restrained but the way she looks at everyone makes me feel like she's got them under arrest. "You'll never find them!" She grins "You don't know what I've down to them!"

My insides twist and turn at hearing that sentence. How crazy can Luna actually be?

"What have you done to Miss. Donna Tobin and Mr. Jeffery Crawford?" The detective booms. Wow. First time I've ever seen him show authority properly...

"I ate them!" She cackles. My eyes widen at those three words. I don't believe her, she's to mentally unstable to be telling the truth. She didn't resort to... She wouldn't have. She couldn't have!

The detective looks at Luna with a new emotion and orders the team to search the cottage.

Muffled shouts and cries escape from behind a yellow door with no keyhole.

Of course! I know where they are and the code to get them out!

The team try numerous ways to break down the door but the stupid thing seems to be made out of titanium! Someone eventually decides to retrieve a gadget that would unlock the door for them but I step inside and stop him.

The detective glares at me and orders me to go back outside where it is safer and let the professionals do their work. I shake my head at him and walk up to the number pad.

I dial in the four numbers:

11, 9, 3, 11

I hear a gasp from behind me as the door springs open, revealing two frazzled people. One day being held captive and they already look like a mess. What went on in that small room?

"Thank you!"/"Freedom!" They yell together. Two people run forward to help them out and rush them to the ambulance to check for any injuries. Everyone slowly disperses out of the cottage and I slowly trail along behind them.

I step out in time to witness Luna wrestle the detective to the ground and punch the cop next to him. She does this with her hands still cuffed behind her back! I'm both amazed and afraid and what happens next.

She breaks free of the handcuffs.

Just like... That. She's like the Incredible Hulk but she's mental, a woman, isn't a giant and isn't green.

My train of thoughts are stopped when an arm locks around my neck and starts making it unable for me to breath.

Luna's choking me.

Well, careful what you wish for guys. 'Cuz you just might get it.

"Nobody move!" She screams. Into my ear, might I add. "Come at me with a weapon and this girlie gets to say bye bye!"

"I can say bye bye whenever I want to!" I retort. I know, I'm so freakin' smart.

Luna tightens her grip on my neck and I start to desperately claw at her arm. I look at the rescue team in panic and by the looks of it, they don't have a plan.

Isn't that just dandy?

I start to see spots in my vision and I claw harder at Luna's arm. "Bye bye" I manage to spit out.

Suddenly, I feel Luna's grip slacken and I take the opportunity to take a few more lungfuls of air. I feel a weight crash into me and I collapse to the ground, wheezing and coughing.

"KIM!" Jack? What's he doing here? I feel a pair of strong hands lift my head up and I slowly open my eyes.

"Hey," I say weakly. Jack chuckles and hugs me to his chest. "How did you get here?"

"I followed you- all of you actually, you know, as backup."

I chuckle. "Hero complex much?"

"Yeah, but I'm glad I did. Don't you dare ever say bye bye again!" Jack scolds. I laugh and he releases me from his hug and helps me to sit up.

"Thanks. You know, for kinda saving my life there."

"Kinda?"

"Meh."

"We'll aren't you just something?" Jack laughs. I grin at him and wrap my arms around him.

"Thank you." I murmur into his chest. He tightens his grip around me and kisses the top of my head.

I break free and smile at him. An invisible nudge starts making me lean forward.

He leans forward...

Closer...

Suddenly, something starts to clog up my throat and I lean backwards and start coughing violently to the side. "Kim!" Jack's patting my back in a confused panic, not sure what to do. "I'm gonna take you to the ambulance now, ok?" He lifts me up as I continue coughing and holding my neck. I start to wheeze and Jack picks up his pace. I look weakly up at him.

"Bye bye"
