I heard screaming and my eyes slowly opened. I looked around and I saw Chloe blouse being ripped off by a drunk Taj.

Theo and Chad were laughing as they both held whiskey bottles in their hands. Chelsea was sobbing again and my stepmom as well. Austin was crying and Chloe was screaming but I couldn't do anything for the first time. Timmy smirked while walking in then towards me and I glared at him.

"This is for what your parents made me go through in prison, bitch!" Taj informed and Chloe cried.

"Oh, you haven't been through anything yet bastard!" I snapped at him and he looked at me so Timmy pat him on the shoulder.

"You shouldn't play with fire, princess. You might just get burn." Timmy smirked and I rolled my eyes. Then suddenly he slapped me across the face and I glared at him as my cheek stings.

"Asshole!" I screamed at him and he suddenly hit me across the face again but with more force.

The chair stumbled to one side on the ground with me and I suddenly tasted blood on my tongue. I was a bit dizzy after that and my whole body ached in pain once again.

"Who's going to save you now, princess?" Timmy laughed at me.

"It has been almost five days and that boyfriend of yours is nowhere to be found! Pathetic!" He spit at me before he pulled my chair back up and I rolled my eyes as if nothing happened.

It has been almost five days and we haven't ate much but only being messed with by these three psychopaths.

Austin got feed by my stepmom and I was quite surprised that Timmy actually had a soft part for babies.

If we start an argument with them or try fighting back, they put us underneath a water passage for a due time which is a secret passage that leads to the mouth of the river. They only pull us back up when they are ready so we have to be strong enough to bear it. Most times, Timmy is probably watching from those cameras on the walls.

"And your point is? You're still the asshole here apart from that annoying bastard there plus Mr. Jerkface over there and that unscrupulous british garbage over here!" I snapped and the three glared at me. Timmy smirked fell from his lips and I knew what was next but I was prepared.

"Looks like someone needs to cool down and I know just the right cure for her." Timmy said bluntly. He took Taj's bottle of whiskey and he throw it all over my head. I gasped as I quickly closed my eyes from the burning heat sensation.

"You're the one who needs to cool down!" I yelled with my eyes closed and that's when I felt him pulling me by the chair. I heard the underground water passage begin open and I knew Timmy was smirking now.

"No! Please! She didn't mean it!" I heard Chloe screaming but no one listened.

"You need to gain your manners back and I will teach you how just like back then." With the chair was pushed down into the water passage and I quickly took a deep breath in.

I slowly sank to the bottom with a rope holding my chair up as the last time, through the water then I opened my eyes.

The water was cold but clean and I could see everything clearly. This wasn't my first time down here so I took it easy but I started to worry about how long he will do this for. He's cruel and he's trying to torture me in the most slowest way that anyone can ever think about.

I tired pulling out of the ropes around my hand which was attached to the chair but I didn't succeed. I couldn't even find or feel my pocket knife so I tired pulling out again and again but I didn't succeed.

I counted every second underneath the water and the more I counted, the more I felt myself getting weaker. I was running out of air and my chest was slowly starting to burn.

My eyes started to burn like fire then my nose as my chest felt like a burning stove now. My eyes slowly started to close as I finally thought of giving up in life.

I couldn't fight back for the first time in my life and I know that's what Timmy is probably waiting for. He's wants me to fight back and to show him how savage he made me. He wants me to be like him but I can't because he's wicked and I don't want to be anything close to him.

My eyes started to close as I tired to struggle out of the ropes and the chair. Then I slowly glanced up as I felt the rope loosening from around my hands and feet.

I suddenly saw Tyson, my knight in shining armor swimming down towards me then I floated out of my chair while feeling dizzy. He pulled my face to his and soon after I got some oxygen from him to swim back up.

He got out of the water then he pulled me out. I crashed onto the hard cold ground and I let out a deep breath while shoving my hair from my face. I started to breath hard then my lungs began to function properly, once more.

I heard some groan in pain so I slowly sat up and that's when I realized what was going on. I saw Chad holding his bleeding leg and Theo held his bleeding shoulder. Taj was dead from a shot in his head and Tyson was currently pulling the ropes off the girls now. I slowly stood up and I made it over to my stepmom which was apparently crying. I pulled the duck tape off her mouth then I pulled the ropes.

"Ashley... He has my baby! Timmy, has my baby!" She cried as she hugged me and my eyes widen.

I muttered a colorful word as I saw Tyson tying the ropes around Theo and Chad body including hands. So they both won't be moving for now until maybe when the cops get here.

"I will get him back, don't worry. But you guys need to get out of here." I said as I helped her up and she shook her head.

"I can't leave you nor Austin here, your father will kill me." She informed me and I sighed.

"Just trust me, please mom." I said and she stared at me.

"I do trust you, but..." Tyson cut her off.

"This is not the time to discuss anything... You all need to swim your way out of here because there's no way we all will exit through that door alive." Tyson points to the only door in the room and I sighed.

"I am not leaving without you nor Austin and you don't know Timmy so you will definitely need me." I said bluntly and he rolled his eyes.

"Did I ever say no to you?" He asked bluntly and I looked at my stepmom.

"Now I wish you all can swim 'cause you all need to go direct left and there you will be able to swim out of the river. Chase will be there, waiting. Now go and be safe." Tyson informed them and Chelsea dive into the water.

"Be safe. Both of you." Chloe said and I nodded. She dive into the water and my stepmom hugged me. I suddenly heard a lot of gunshots firing and Tyson looked at his watch.

"Mom, go and contact Dad to call the cops or something." I informed her and she smiled before she went into the water. Tyson suddenly handed me a gun and I sighed while taking the safety off.

"That's our cue. James just arrived with the guys so we need to go." He informed me and I nodded.

We both headed towards the door but suddenly someone burst in. It was only Carlos so I let out a sigh of relief while removing my gun from between his surprised eyes.

"We killed, Timmy." He informed us so we headed out in a direction and I raised an eyebrow.

"I guess everything is over then." Tyson said awkwardly as he looked at me and I sightly nodded.

He couldn't died so easy without me witnessing it!

We went around to the back of the warehouse after we walked past a lot of dead bodies.

Then I saw James gang and most of the guys from Tyson's gang. They all were surrounding a body on the ground as we approached them. I looked at the guy which was surprisingly in Timmy's clothes and I groaned when I realized who it was.

"That's not Timmy! That's Ashton, my personal driver! Where's my baby brother?" I groaned as I looked around at them and they stared at me.

"He didn't have him." Mason said and I groaned even more.

Then suddenly there were gunshots firing from across the warehouse so we all rushed to take cover. We all started to shoot back at the men which I predicted were Timmy's gangsters.

"Ashley! Your mom! Up there! Timmy!" Chloe came running towards us from behind in wet clothes while she points at the building roof.

We all looked and I saw Timmy holding a gun at my baby brother head. There was a next gangster holding my stepmom besides a smirking Timmy. The rest of the gangsters were already dead by now so we all rushed out into the opening.

"I guess the whole family is here now." Timmy yelled from the roof and some black cars started to roll in. Dad came rushing out from one of the black cars with some men in black suits so I looked back at Timmy.

"Timmy, why are you even doing this?" I yelled enough for him to hear me.

"I want my revenge on you for sending me to jail for my whole lifetime!" He yelled while still aiming the gun at Austin's head.

"But you kidnapped me and you put me through hell just because I broke up with you! You were dealing with drugs and I wasn't into that! You were wrong then and you're still wrong now! Admit the truth already!" I yelled in frustration and he was quiet for a while.

"If we shoot, we might just shoot the baby or your wife, sir." One of the black suit man said to Dad and he groaned. They must be FBI agents or some federal force.

"I want my family alive! Understand!" Dad yelled at the FBI agents.

"And who are these kids here?" One of the FBI agents asked and Dad finally saw me so he suddenly hugged me.

"Ashley, you're alive and okay. I should have killed him with my bare hands instead of sending him to jail! I am so sorry, Ashley." Dad said as he hugged me and I smiled.

"Dad, it's not your fault and these kids right beside me are my friends." I said to the FBI and they slowly nodded while looking at the guns in our hands.

"Ashley, if you want your baby brother to live, your stepmom has to die. If you want your stepmom to live, your baby brother needs to die. Your choice so choose wisely, princess." Timmy yelled and I stared at Tyson while everyone looked at me.

Life comes with choices?

Who lives and who dies though we all have to die one day?

"We need a chopper down here and now! And make sure the cops are on their way too." The same FBI agent said to Dad and he nodded.

"What about? I die and they live? I am the one that you want to get revenge on, so take this as an opportunity." I yelled bluntly while I stared at him and he smirked.

"What are you saying?" Dad and Tyson asked at once.

"I can't lose you!" Tyson informed me and I sighed.

"I can't lose you nor them." Dad informed me as he looked up at the roof.

"That's more like it!" Timmy said.

Then suddenly there was a gunshot and my stepmom screamed. I don't know where the shot came from or who fired it but everyone heard it.

There was a next gunshot and everything happened so swiftly. I realized that Austin was about to fall out of Timmy's hands but my stepmom quickly reached out and caught him just in time while Timmy fell off the roof instead.

He was shot in the head and I witnessed his death when his body crashed onto the ground, not too far from before us. The other dude was already dead and my stepmom was alright with a crying Austin.

I saw Justin walking up towards our stepmom with a gun and there were sirens which signals to us that the cops were nearby. Justin hugged our stepmom and I sighed in relief.

Everything was finally over. The running from one town to a next town was finally over. Timmy is finally dead and I witnessed his death. My family and my friends are still alive.

"I should have done that a long time ago, Ashley." Justin yelled and there was some chuckles.

"Yeah, we both should have." I hugged Dad as I looked at a smiling Tyson.

"There's two more in the basement." Carlos informed the FBI as my stepmom and Justin came down from the roof. They nodded along with Dad.

"We need to go now." James said to me and I nodded.

"I will be back home, tonight." I told Dad and he nodded.

Dad looked at Tyson and he put his hand out to shake Dad's hand. Dad looked at me and I smiled.

"I want my daughter back by 9pm...or maybe in the morning." Dad smiled at Tyson and he nodded with his hand still out.

Dad chuckled as he pulled Tyson in a manly hug. I smiled as Tyson chuckled while Tyson hugged him back. Dad broke the hug when Justin and my stepmom came beside us.

"Now go before I change my mind." Dad said bluntly and I held Tyson's hand.

I kissed Austin on his little cheek as he slept and I hugged my stepmom. I walked away with Justin at my side and Tyson at my next side so I held both hands. We caught up with the guys and we all hugged each other for a while before going into different cars.

"We are going to the hospital then to the Gang house. Scott came out of coma, 2 days ago and he's supposed to come home today." Justin informed me from the back of the car with Chelsea and Chase.

"That's great news. What about Cindy?" I asked curiously and they sighed.

"Well she is apparently in the custody and probably going to a crack house at this moment while we speak." Chase informed me and I raised an eyebrow while Tyson drove.

"Before you ask... She confessed what she did and it's a whole lot of shits. Then she started to freak out, like literally... She went crazy and we called in the cops for the first time. Then they investigated and instead of sending her to jail, they should be shipping her to a crack house for crazy women. Old and young women who are criminals with mental illness." Chase said bluntly and Justin nodded so I went like 'wow'.

"At least she's out of our lives. Everyone else is okay, right?" Chelsea asked and they nodded.

"And that picture which we thought was Tyler and this blonde hair chick, it was all fake. It was Tyler and his old friend from the club that night when you along with Chloe almost got raped." Tyson said to me and I slowly nodded.

"Everyone is okay and that's all you need to know." Justin said as he looked at a brand new phone in his hand and I started to smile.

"That's all I wanted to hear."
