Chapter12

Brass called me "Nick they've admitted it but neither of them will give up the location or where Rachel is, we have been to her house and she isn't there, we have an APB out on her but I've tried everything they just won't give up the location" he said.

"she must have something over them because they're looking at a big stretch but still won't give her up these are common criminals not master minds" I said.

"god knows what it is I've got every cop I can looking for any sign of this bitch" Brass replied.

"thanks Jim I know it must be hard for you after what happened" I said.

"Kat is a dear friend of mine, she helped find my daughter and Morgan" he said.

After he put the phone down I carried on looking up anything I could find on anyone involved in this case. I found out that Rachel owned a few properties and one was out in the desert it was a farm. I found out that it had been abandoned.

"bet you that's it" I said

"bet what?" Russell said walking in.

"Rachel owns an abandoned farm out in the desert with 4 large outhouses" I said.

"well what are we waiting for?" Russell asked.

"what's saying she's already there?" I asked.

"so we need to get Katy back plus steven and Seth will be there" he said.

"true but we need to catch her she wants us both dead" I said.

"are you really risking this to wait some more?" Russell asked.

"you're right" I said. So Brass made plans with SWAT to move in. I along with Sarah and Gregg would go along too.

"I'm going to bring Sam if that's okay?" I asked Brass on the phone.

"good idea that will quicken our search" Brass said.

So I went over to my dog sitters, where I had left Sam, and grabbed him. Half an hour later we were in convoy to the abandoned farm, Sam was on the back seat with me whilst Gregg drove and Sarah was up front. Sam wasn't his self he was upset, when he heard Kat scream he went savage barking in the garden.

I gave him lots of fuss on the way, we were all wearing bullet proof vests and I had Kat's work shirt that she had taken off before she went for a jog, so Sam could sniff her out.

I was being raped again,there was no sign of the other 3 and it was growing dark. I heard a car pull up and I started screaming.

"shut your fucking mouth" he said quickly climbing off me. I continued to scream so he punched me clean in the face. He proceeded to get a gun out and pointed it in my face "make one more fucking sound and I will shoot you"

He looked out the window "you're lucky its just the boss" he said.

Afew minutes later I heard the door open and heels clip clapping towards us.

"been having fun have we?" A woman asked, she walked over to the bed and looked down at me, she ran her finger down my arm "so we finally meet, Miss Jackson"

I didn't reply I just looked at her in disgust. She was well dressed in a skirt suit which was high end and she had diamonds on her ring finger.

"Nicks on his way to save you" she laughed. "or so he thinks, truth is neither of you are getting out of here alive"

"we will see" I said.

"oh honey" she laughed.

"you will never get away with this" I said.

"thing is I don't care I have nothing to live for now, but mark my words Nick Stokes will die"

We pulled up outside the Farm house and everyone got out, Sam went mental and started running down across the dirt path I chased after her as I rounded the corner I heard a gun shot and Sam yelp. Stood there was Rachel with a gun to Kat's head. Sam was lay there with blood coming out of him.

"so we finally meet" Rachel said.

"I'm here now, just let her go" I said. Kat was covered in blood and she had nothing on the lower half of her body, and her one eye was so swollen you could hardly see her eye. I felt like crying but I didn't because it was a sign of weakness.

"you just don't get it do you?" Rachel said "ain't nobody getting out of here alive today"

"it doesn't have to be like this" I said.

"oh yes it does, you took everything from me, now I'm taking everything away from you" she laughed.

"it's me you want not her just let her go" I said.

"ohhhh no I want you to know how it feels to lose the one you love"

I reached for my gun and she fired her gun, it hit me to the leg and the next bit was a blur. Sam got up and was barking viciously, Rachel flung Kat to the floor and as she went to shoot her, Sam jumped up and attacked Rachel. All the SWAT team came running and I shouted to Sam to stop in French. I watched as they all rushed around Rachel and then I saw Kat. I dragged myself over to her as my leg was bleeding and hurting so bad. I saw that she had a gun shot wound to her stomach. I felt sick as I heard them call in on the radio "officer down".

"I'm going to die aren't I?" Kat asked.

"No course not" I said putting pressure on the wound.

"why are you lying?" she smiled, "I can see it in your eyes"

"I won't let that happen" I smiled back.

"I do love you, you know more than I've ever loved anyone. I finally found someone who I want to spend the rest of my life with and then I get shot, just my luck" she said touching my face.

"you're going to be fine" I said.

"we both know that's a lie" she said a single tear rolling down her cheek. She was starting to lose consciousness.

"hey stay with me" I said touching her face.

"I'm sorry" she whispered.

"sorry for what?" I asked.

"that I won't be here to look after you and watch you send that bitch to the chair" she said.

"hey stop it, we're both going to send her there baby, I love you too much to lose you now" I said kissing her.

She smiled at me and then slowly closed her eyes.

"NO, NO, NO!" I kept saying tapping her face, I was crying now holding her lifeless body in my arms.

"please, please wake up" I didn't see or hear the ambulance arrive I just kept starring at my beautiful Kat praying for her to wake up. I was dragged off her by Gregg and I had to watch as the paramedics worked on her, pumping her chest over and over.
