"Oh watch this." Paul whispers and silently points to a spot upriver.
Renee suddenly slips falls on her back and is submerged. Screaming in her head Renee tries to scramble but she can't move. Something dragged her under and is now pulling her – underwater along the bed of the river.
"What the fuck just happened? Did you know this was going to happen, Paul?" Charlie says.
"What? No. I'm just as surprised as you are. Let's walk faster she's probably in trouble…you have heard of the river bandits…right?" Paul says.
"Yes I have heard of the river bandits. Little varmints that prey on the unlucky people who walk these waters…that's bullshit and you know it." Charlie says. "And what do you mean…no? I clearly heard you say, 'Oh watch this' like you knew what was going to happen."
There was a giggle Paul and Charlie stopped and turned around completely missing the now thrashing Renee as she is dragged down river with a black strip of thin but impenetrable material stretched across her mouth.
Renee clearly watched as Paul and Charlie walked away from her completely ignoring her thrashing movements.
Renee's eyes widened as she looked over the heads of Paul and Charlie. Hovering a few feet above their heads was a floating man/boy. Renee didn't know his name but it seemed like she should know his name.
The man/boy looked like he was leading Paul and Charlie along like puppets, away from her.
"That's it just watch. Just. Watch. Little dear. As they leave. You." A sickeningly sweet voice whispers to the back of Renee's head.
*mumble*
"Don't struggle dearie and don't make any sounds." *mumble* "No. Sh. Quiet dearie. Remember, no sounds." *mumble* Renee's muffled scream reaches the ears of Charlie and Paul so they…keep walking.
"See? Even if you manage to call out for help you won't get it." Jane says still dragging Renee down the river. For Renee what seems like an eternity passes.
Jane has now dragged Renee out of the river unto some dirt.
"God...damn…it. Holy…shit…that…took…forever…fuck." Jane says panting. "Okay now get in."
*mumble*
"GET IN THE FUCKING VAN!" Jane screams shoving Renee – hands now bound face bleeding from cuts – into a white van.
"What. The. FUCK!" Charlie screams.
"WHERE THE HELL DID SHE GO?" Paul screams in equal panic level with Charlie.
"Oh My God. NOOOOOOOOOOO." Charlie screams throwing his head back and howls.
"Jesus we both should calm down. But why you howling?" Paul says his voice visibly calmer than before.
"I finally get to see…give me a minute." Charlie says his voice cracking uncharacteristically.
"Okay while you're taking that minute? We need to get going." Paul says pulling his SWAT training to take control of the situation. Waving his had to indicate the direction forward Paul says, "Come on Charlie move!"
Charlie complies and the two trudge through the river. Pretty soon they hear echoing yells. This prompts them to go faster now fully sprinting through the once calm river.
As Charlie and Paul reach a bend in the river they hear, "GET IN THE FUCKING VAN!"
Charlie and Paul round the corner and come to the dirt parking lot at the end of a gravel trail that leads to the entrance of the canyon that they are now standing in.
Jane whirls at them screaming, "I HAVE HER. IF YOU WAN'T HER? BRING BOTH CLANS TO THE VOLTURI CAPITOL."
And with those words Jane hops – through the window – into the driver seat of the white van and speeds away.
"Why would they need a van-" Charlie's question is interrupted when both he and Paul get a look into the rear of the white van through clear glass.
Renee is being beaten with a police baton by a man who looks like Jane's twin. Alec.
