This chapter has been slightly changed.

Izzy's PoV:

Squid and I had reached Flo's room. She was sitting on the bed answering questions from the doctor about if it still hurt etc, so we decided to stay back.

Stampy was sat on the chair next to her bed, when he saw us come in he got up and came over to us.

"Squid I think you should talk to the doctor. You've been around Flo more so you will be able to say more." Stampy said. Squid nodded and went to sit next to Flo, while Stampy lent against the wall next to me, taking Squid's place.

I suddenly had an idea, it was risky but I knew Sqaishey would never do it so I decided to take the risk.

"Um, Stamps?" I asked. He looked at me and nodded.

"You know Flo... well Sqaishey wants to adopt her." I said nervously.

Stampy just turned away from me and stared straight ahead.

Eventually he sighed and said, "I know. She told me last night."

I was shocked, I didn't think she would.

"But what do you want?" I questioned.

Stampy suddenly turned round and stared straight at me. I realised how tired he looked, he didn't look like he had had much sleep last night.

"I do want to adopt her, I really do! But I'm just scared, what if it doesn't work out and I end up hurting her more than she already is." He explained.

"It will work out. You already know her well and she trusts you, so that's an amazing start." I said.

"You think so?" He still looked unsure.

"I know so!" I pushed, "You should follow your gut."

He nodded and just looked at Flo.

5 minutes later Squid came up to us.

"She's been given the all clear! All she has to do is where a small ankle support for a few weeks!" Squid said happily.

"Great!" I said and rushed over to Flo to talk to her.

She looked so happy.

"Omg I can't wake to get out of here and run and run!" She laughed.

"I'll race you race you to the car when we get out of the building." I laughed as well, "Just make sure you don't get hit by another car!"

She pushed my shoulder but was laughing as well.

"Come on we can go now." Squid said coming up to us. Flo jumped off the bed and immediately fell over, luckily Squid was next to her and caught her before she could hurt herself anymore.

He helped her up and held her while she walked along. She started to get the hang of it and once we were in the hospital lobby she was practically running.

"Come on guys!" She shouted at us. Even though we got a few annoyed looked from people we ran after her anyway.

Those few seconds were perfect Flo was happy, Squid was happy, Stampy was happy that he was going to adopt Flo and I was happy knowing that. Everything seemed to be perfect. But then, as it always seems to in my life, it was ruined just as it has started.

A black Mercedes pulled up in the drop off point that we were running towards. Two men climbed out, Flo stopped running and so did I.

The first man started walking straight towards Flo, she started backing away.

The second man came towards me and grabbed me. I could see the first man had done the same to Flo. I was thrashing around trying to get out. Then Squid was there, he punched the man in the face, his grip loosened on me allowing Squid pulled me from his grasp.

The man came towards us again.

"IZZY! KEEP BEHIND ME." Squid yelled at me, as he pulled me to his back while he faced the man. However, the man didn't attack again, instead he ran towards Flo and the first man.

I saw Stampy sprint towards them and squid ran to join him, just as Squid reached the first man, the second leapt in between them and hit Squid in the face. I saw Squid's phone slid out of his pocket and across the ground as he fell over. I watched the first man grab Flo and push her into the car, closing the door. Then Stampy grabbed him from behind and pulled him to the ground.

The second man grabbed Stampy and pushed him towards Squid who was sprawled across the floor.

I watched as both men started to get in the car, suddenly I realised what I had to do. I sprinted towards Squid's phone, grabbing it and ran to the car park exit.

I knew I would get there before them as they had to go all the way around.

I made it to the exit and started climbing the tree that was on the edge of the car park. I sat on a branch and hoped that I wouldn't get noticed. Opening the camera on Squid's phone I watched as the car came round the corner. Through the window of the car I got a picture of one of the men and then, as they pulled out onto the road I got a picture of their number plate.

Slowly I climbed back down the tree and sprinted to Stampy and Squid, remembering what had happened to them.

As I got there I breathed a sigh of relief Squid was sitting up with Stampy and some people from the hospital. As I got there Squid started to stand up with help from Stampy.

"Don't worry I'm fine now." He said to the nurses. I saw them nod and walk back to the hospital.

"Are you ok?" Squid asked running to and wrapping his arms around me.

"Yeah I'm fine, what about you?" I asked.

"I'm good." He replied.

Then Stampy spoke up, "Come on we have to go after those people! They took Flo!" Stampy said in a panicked voice.

"Mate we can't, we don't know where they have gone. We have to call the police and hope they can track her down." Squid said before turning to me, "She had her phone right?"

I nodded and looked at Stampy, he seemed really worried.

"But I did get a picture of one of the men and the cars number plate." I said handing Squid's phone back to him.

"Oh my God! Well done!" He said hugging me again.

Stampy then got on the phone to the police and gave them the number plate.

After about 10 minutes he ended the call and came over to us.

"We have to go to the station to give them the picture and any extra information on it, they are contacting social services for us." He informed.

"Hey mate, I know this is really serious but you seem even more desperate to find her than I thought you would be... why's that?" I heard Squid question Stampy. I watched Stampy state directly in Squid's eyes and say:

"Because I was going to adopt her."
