A/N: This will be a dark(er) chapter than usual. In other words, do you think Kevin will actually be killed? ;)

Sequel: Chapter 16: Is This the End?

Kevin's PoV:

"We're here..." We pull into a driveway, overlooking a lake... Oh my god... We're here... Harry parks the car and says to Krista, "Hang onto him," She nods. He gets out of the car, and when he gets to the back, he opens the door. "Give him to me," Krista lifts me off of her lap by my underarms, and Harry takes a hold of me by my underarms, setting me down in the seat, with my feet dangling out of the car. He peels the tape off of my mouth and says, viciously, hanging tightly onto my arms, hurting my right one, "Someone's gonna die tonight... Heheheh..."

"Please... Please don't kill me..." I beg, crying. "Just send a message... to my family... for the money... Please... You don't have to do this..."

He holds the gun to my chin and threatens, "I'm not afraid to kill you, anymore... I am so SICK of your bullshit... If you would've just behaved yourself, you wouldn't be in this mess right now... This is all your fault..."

"If you would've... If you would've just left me a couple weeks ago..." I stutter.

"Get out here!" He grabs onto me by my hair and pulls me out of the car. Krista shortly after gets out of the car. He drags me across the snowy, slushy ground.

"Nooo!" I start screaming. "Let me gooo! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Please! Krista! Don't let him do this!"

"I'm going to enjoy this..." she says, clearly satisfied that I'm about to be murdered...

I try to fight out of his grasp, but I barely can, with my hands tied up... I do manage to slip out of his grasp, and I try to get up and crawl away, but he grabs onto my foot, dragging me over to the lake. All I can do is weep. "Please..." I beg, trying to catch my breath.

"Shut up." Krista kicks me in the head.

He drags me into the lake, lets go of my foot, grabs onto my hair, lifts me up, but throws me back into the water. Harry's instantly on top of me. "I gave you every chance, kid!" He punches me in the face. I can't help but scream and cry. I want to hide my face, but I can only lift up my arms so far, because of my broken arm... The icy cold water keeps washing up in my face, freezing me, and causing me to swallow it... "If you would've just left us alone, you would've been fine!" He punches me again.

"Stop it!"

"I'm sick of you! You hear me?! Sick of you!"

"I'm sick of you!" I shout back. I'm freezing... I look over to see Krista. I can barely see her in this dark... I can see that she smirks at me, though...

"Don't you dare insult him like that!" she shouts at me. She wants to murder me, too... She makes her way into the water, too. She kicks me in the head again.

"You... You guys insult me all the time!" I say, trying to spit out the water that the waves are causing me to swallow... He holds my head underwater... I panic, trying to push him off...

Kate's PoV:

There's a knock on the door, and I answer. It's a police officer. "Officer! Is it Kevin?! Is Kevin OK?!" Fear rises up in me. My instant Motherly reaction...

"We got a call from Benjamin Pelzer's phone. It wasn't Mr. Pelzer, though. The voice seemed to be coming from Marvin Merchants. He said he and his friend were shot and that his kid was taken. He said that the kid was going to be drowned, and for us to try going to Beaver Dam Lake. We have officers on their way there now. Come on, Mrs. McCallister,"

When I look behind me, I see Peter and the others standing there. "Children, you stay here. The rest of you..." Peter says, then gestures for the other adults to come with us. Peter, the others, and I all grab our coats, and we run out the door...

Kevin's PoV:

He lets go of me, and I gasp for air, coughing. I keep screaming, "Nooo! Heeelp! Dooon't! Pleeease!"

"You did this to yourself, kid!" He punches me again.

"Stop it! Krista! Please! Don't let him do it!"

"Harry, move," Harry gets up off of me. I try to get up, but Krista stands over me. She places her foot on my chest. "I might want this more than he does... I'm the wrong person to be begging for help, little boy..." I try to push her foot off me, but she places her foot on my hands, instead. "You trusted me... You loved me... You'd better be careful who you trust and love, because they could end up murdering you..." She kicks me in the head again with her other foot. I'm running short on breath, not only from the constant beating, but from the cold and the icy water I'm constantly swallowing. I manage to kick her off me. I try to get out of the water, but Krista and Harry both push me back down in the water.

"Please... Please..." I beg, running short on breath. "I'll do anything... I'll behave..." I'm shivering, soaking wet. I'm too weak to move, anymore...

"He looks like he's on the verge of death, honey... I think we should kill him..." Krista says, smirking evilly. I'm trying to hold open my eyes, so I don't fade away... Mom... Dad... I don't want to leave you...

Harry's down on top of me again and punches me again. He grabs onto my neck with his one hand and pulls out his gun with the other. He points it to my head. I'm panting heavily, scared... "I should've done this a long time ago, kid..." A rush of adrenaline courses through me, all of a sudden. I grab onto Harry's arm and try to pull it down, so that the gun is pointing to my chin. Even with my arms taped together, I still manage to grab onto his gun, trying to point it away from me. I struggle to release his fingers from the trigger and replace them with mine. I won't let Harry win this... The gun's facing him. I'm going home... I need to do this...

My fingers are wrapped around the trigger. "Hey! What are you doing?!" Krista shouts at me, which startles me, making me pull the trigger...

To be Continued...

A/N: Thanks again! You know what to do! ;) Useless info: I've been on a movie kick all day, I don't want to start the new semester, and I'm still getting over the flu...

I thought I'd end it there, just to suspend you people just that bit longer. ;) Krista's still alive. Kevin's not out of trouble yet... The cops just may not get there in time, you know? ;) Well, you'll see what happens next chapter! Ta-ta! :D
