AN: So as usual, I don't own MI High, nor anything you may recognise. I just own Demi and Jamie. In this chapter, we learn a little more about Jamie and Harry, so I hope you enjoy!
2 Days Later, St Heart's School: Jamie's POV
I hadn't seen Demi for 2 days. All of her friends were acting as if nothing was wrong, but I could just tell. That's why I called my Mom. She knows what to do in situations like this. She seemed horrified that Demi was AWOL, and hung up. Well, thanks for your help! And then I turned to someone else who I could rely on in a crisis, Harry. Harry had joined the school 7 months ago, and to be honest no one knew much about him now. Just that his mother had died, and that his father lived in some mansion with servants. I'd met one of them when I'd called up there when Harry first arrived. He was a creepy thing, his eyes seemed to follow you wherever you went. Anyway, I found Harry in the library, reading some book on poetry. "Hey. How would you like to do me a favour?" Harry looked up, curiosity in his eyes. Now, I just had to hope he agreed to help.
Meanwhile, at an unknown location: Demi's POV.
I was dragged by the guards to some room that was ridiculously dark room. Why had I been so stupid? I had gone to the rendezvous point, alone, and had been ambushed by this thugs guards and travelled by van to the middle of nowhere! "Ahh, nice of you to finally join us Demietra!"
"Now, you see, I'm slightly at an disadvantage here, you know my name, but I have no idea who the hell you are." I said, trying to remain calm.
A man stepped out into the shadows, and stepped over to me. "Are you OK?" He whispered, and I recognised his voice! He was the guy who had warned me about his plan. I nodded, "I'm fine." He smiled, and said,
"I'm just sorry we had to meet in these circumstances. I'm Milton. And I'm gonna get you out of here." I nodded and smiled back.
"Thanks." I sighed and spoke louder, "Aren't you gonna tell me what you want with me? Cause I have no clue!" A figure in the shadows laughed, and said, "Oh, it isn't me who wants you Demietra. It's my child. They've been watching you, and have become very interested in you. Oh, and you'd better know that I have no plans to let your mother go any time soon." Now that annoyed me.
"You made a deal! Now hand her over!" I yelled, trying to escape my restraints.
"Demietra, do I look like the kind of man who keeps my promises? Milton! Lock her in the cell with her mother." The 'master' said. Milton grabbed my shoulders, and began to pull me, before putting me in a cell. "I'm sorry Demi." Milton said, as he locked the door.
"It's not your fault. I was stupid enough to fall for it." I said, as I sat down. "Well, this is a very nice cell." A cough caused me to look to the corner. A woman was slumped over, dark hair covering her face. "Mum? Is that you?" I whispered, creeping closer. The woman looked up, and I recognised her. My mother.
"Demi? You stupid girl, what are you doing here?" She said, her voice hoarse.
"I'm here to get you out! Milton's going to help us." She scoffed.
"Milton's been trying to do that for 10 years Demi. You're stuck here." Ooh, she's Miss Positivity isn't she?
"He'll help us. We're going to get out. If not Dad will get us, and Tom. Not even every army in the world will stop them to coming to save us."
"Sure if you say so Demi."
After about what felt like a hour's silence, I was seriously thinking that I was going to die here. My goodbyes replayed in my head. How I'd told Zoe to go for it with Dan, How I'd hugged Jamie and told her never to change, and it had been so unbelievably hard to say goodbye to Tom. I felt tears gather. What if that was it? I'd never hang out with Zoe and Jamie again? Or never be partners with Dan in English again, when we just used to mess around? Or, never play Ocarina of Time with Tom again, or feel so safe in his arms. If you think this is my love confession, it isn't, OK? Sighing for the 100th time in a hour, I sat up and said, "Right, I've had enough! We're escaping now. I've had enough of lying around."
AN: And I'm going to leave it there! Hope you enjoyed!
