Chloe POV Past
I struggled and struggled to fight off Nate and Prim but it got harder and harder. I wondered what happened to Kyle, I hadn't seen him in a while now. How many days has it been? Or any days at all? I can't tell day from night in this shed.
Chloe POV Present
Nate called me up from my room for my food. I was starving for blood since I wasn't fed yesterday. I didn't deserve food after I screwed up my chores. I raced up the stairs to him and Sylvia. She pulled a bag from the fridge and handed it to me. Quickly, I rank it before Nate could snatch it away. That was one of his favorite ways to punish me for taking too long to do something or doing something wrong.
"You and Sylvia are going to go on your first mission today," Nate said as I disposed of the bag in the trash. "Are you ready?"
"Yes sir," I nodded.
"Good," he smiled. He gave Sylvia a backpack and a kiss on the forehead.
Nate caught me looking at them and I got a swift smack to the back of the head.
Ten minutes later we got into the van. I sat rigid and on guard. As Sylvia was getting herself situated, a werewolf walked up to the window and tapped on it. Sylvia rolled it down.
"Boss says I'm going instead of you," he said.
Sylvia mumbled something under her breath and got out of the van. I stayed put. Not moving.
Simon's POV
Liz came back to us with no news. She said she tracked down Kyle and he was tagging along with her, but he wasn't saying much. He didn't know where they had been but he was with Chloe. Though she wasn't there when Liz showed up.
"Why won't you tell us what is happening?" I asked where I thought Liz and Kyle were sitting.
The note just read, 'bad.'
"What does that mean?" I complained. Bad worried me even more.
Derek was just as upset with this update.
"There's no way you know if she was at the house we are heading to?"
Tori finally spoke up.
"If you guys would forget about magic crap for a second, there is a way."
All of Derek's attention was on her.
"Google Earth," she said. "Search the address and show Liz and Kyle a picture of the house. See if they recognize it.
"You're a genius," I smiled.
"No," Derek grunted.
"Why?" we both asked.
"Because non of us have smart phones," Derek pointed out. "Matt has a flip phone, that's it."
My moment of hope sunk to the floor. Tori continued smiling though.
"What?" I asked.
She pulled a smart phone out from her sweatshirt pocket.
"You think a girl goes on the run without stealing a phone?"
She tossed it over to me. I typed in the address as Matt recited it. Two minutes later, we had a picture.
I showed, or at least tried to show, Liz and Kyle. The paper didn't move for a minute. They must have been trying to decide. Finally on the bottom corner of the paper, it read. 'Yep. He says that's the one.'
I looked at Matt, who I know has a flip phone. And probably Tess' number.
"Call Tess," I said with renewed confidence in our mission. "Tell her to come our way."
