Hi. School starts in 6 days for me! Ah! Can we get it to 100 reviews?! Pretty Please?!

38 days, 8 hrs, 18 minutes, counting seconds till GALLAGHER GIRLS 6!


I had no idea how long I had been a hostage. It felt like it had been at least 3-4 days since I had seen sunlight. All I knew, was that I was allowed a bathroom break at regular intervals and given food and water at certain times. It seemed like every few hours Will would come in and ask me again what he wanted to know. I stayed silent.

He would sometimes let me see through to Zach's room. Each time I got to look, I'd find him even more exhausted then before. I just willed him to live on.

One night, I was trying to sleep on the hard metal bed that had been moved into my room. I was allowed to be untied from my chair now. But Will had told me, repeatedly, that if I tried anything, they could shoot me down quicker than I could think.

My back hurt from the metal bed, and I shivered from lack of warmth. My energy over the past few days had been drained considerably from lack of sleep. I rolled over again to face the wall.

Suddenly, I heard a faint pop and the smell of burnt metal reached my nose. I bolted up right and tried to prepare myself for whatever would appear through that door. This could be my chance.

I looked for a weapon of any kind. But I had already looked for something before and found nothing. I wasn't strong enough to lift the steal bed from the floor. I didn't even have a cup to throw at whoever came in.

Someone rattled keys on the opposite side of the door. I prepared myself to lung at the incoming person.

The door flung open and three pairs of flashlights blinded me. I threw my hands up to shield my eyes, completely forgetting my plan of escape.

"Chica! I found her!" I heard a strangely familiar British accent say.

"Bex?" my voice quivered. The flashlight beams were lowered. Bex rushed to my side.

"Yeah, Cam. I'm here. It's me." Her perfume was a welcomed smell.

The Gallagher Girls were here.

"Bex!" I heard another voice say from near the door. "We need to go!"

"Coming, Abby."

Bex draped my arm over her shoulder and took a firm hold on my side. She practically carried me out of the room.

"Zach," I garbled.

"He's fine. We got him out first." Abby said as we rushed through the gaping hole they put in the wall. My eyes widened in alarm.

"Did you guys do that?" I muttered. Bex let out a half laugh as she readjusted me on her shoulder.

"Liz and Dr. Fibs created the prototype. Insta-hole, is what they're calling it." We trudged along.

"Brilliant."

We came to a cross section in the hallway. Coming down one of the halls, I could see a squad of agents with guns.

"Here, Cam." Bex said. She rolled up my sleeve and placed a patch on my arm.

"That wasn't a Napotine patch, was it?" I said. I got a slight buzzing in the back of my head.

"Nope." Abby said. I was able to stand now. "Caffeine Patch." We began running down the opposite hall. The noise of the enemy agents echoed behind us.

"Bex, what day is it?" I asked.

"It's the 11th. The closing ceremonies are tomorrow night." she replied. We ran right into another squad of agents. Abby and Bex went into attack mode. The caffeine was helping, but I still wasn't up to major attack mode, so I stayed out of the way and only attacked when they needed me.

"Bex! Did I cause you to miss your event?" I pushed a guy into a nearby closet.

"Kinda. But this is way more fun." she grunted as she locked her legs around her attacker and got him into a very painful choke hold.

"C'mon squirt!" Abby waved at me. "We're almost out!"

I could see the night sky outside through an open door. I burst through the doorway and took my first deep breath of fresh air.

Except the air wasn't that fresh.

I began sputtering and coughing as a result of the smell. We were obviously near the River Thames because of the stench.

"Come on! Get in!" I heard Tina yelled from the driver's seat of a huge black van. Anna and Eva pulled open the doors and we hopped inside. By now, I felt the full power of the patch. I felt awake and alive.

"Where's Zach?" I said.

"He's right here." I heard Macey say from the back of the van. She was cradling Zach's head in her lap. She kept and ice pack on his head. Eva and Ana were keeping more icepacks on various spots on him.

"Oh my gosh. I did this to him." The van rocked back and forth. Abby had climbed into the passenger seat and was telling Tina where to go.

"No you didn't." Bex told me. "Will did." There was no mistaking the disgust in her voice.

"No. I did. Will kept asking me for information, but I wouldn't say anything." My hands were cradling my head.

"Camm-ie" Zach mumbled. He was starting to wake up. "Cammie." He shot up and Macey had to pull him back down.

"I'm right here. Now stay put before you hurt yourself!" I laughed. A smile played across Zach's lips.

"Are you hurt?" His hand came up and brushed a strand of hair behind my ear.

"No. But how do you feel?" I asked.

"Peachy. Just peachy." Everyone in the back of the van laughed.

We were free. We had foiled the Circle's plan to try to ruin the Olympics. Now we could just relax and finish our time in London. The worst was over.

Or so we thought.
