"But Mr. Marcus..." Miss Rosa said "Amy never came to school today."

Six words.

Six little words that kept on ringing in my head.

After speaking to Miss Rosa I came back home. I was drenched and soaking wet but I didn't care.

The thunder roared and the wind was howling and screeching like it blamed me for being careless.

I saw Lavinia look in my eyes with such hope that I felt crushed. How was I going to tell her this?

"A.. Amy is she.." she began with such a hopeful expression that my heart ached.

I looked away and ran my hand across my hair in frustration.

"S...she never went to school Lavi... Claudia said she waited for her for a long time but left when she did not come... I...I should have watched her." I said filled with guilt.

I couldn't look at her in her eyes. I couldn't bear to see her expression when she would realize it was all my fault.

It was all my fault that this happened. I was careless. If only I looked out of the window, this wouldn't have happened.

She pulled me towards her and held me tightly. "Not your fault. I don't blame you." She whispered softly as she embraced me and filled me with warmth.

I shook my head. She didn't understand. She should be blaming me for this but she just held me and I could hear her sobbing quietly which she tried to hide.

"B.. But.." I began.

"Shhh.." she said "I could also blame myself for letting her go alone when you wanted to go with her... But it's not our fault."

She suddenly pulled back and held my face in her hands. I tried to look away. I couldn't watch her cry knowing that I was the cause of her sadness and distress.

"Look at me." she ordered.

I looked in her eyes and I saw hope, trust, love, there was still fear and apprehension but what stood out the most was the trust and confidence she had in me.

I held my breath. I couldn't take my eyes off hers. So much emotion flooded me.

"I trust you. You... No We.. We will find her. She is fine as long as she has us. Go... Go and find her. I know you will." she said with such certainity that she believed every word she said.

... And no matter how much i looked in those eyes I couldn't find any doubt or uncertainty.

I didn't trust my words so I just nodded.

Tring Tring Tring tring

Hmm... Its Juliet.

"Hello. Now's not a really good time." I began.

"it's Amy. Those filthy bastards took her."

I froze.

"I am on my way." I said ending the call.

"Good luck. Bring her back safely." Lavinia said to me.

"Don't worry. I always get the bad guys Lavi." I said and broke all the speed laws as I hurried. It was lucky I didn't get caught.

"Change of plans. We are gonna raid the place. No undercover infiltration. This is serious. They have Amy." Juliet explained.

"I found a video. 'New subject' experiment starts in an hour. Got the location too. Apparently someone from the inside is helping us. They will send a layout map." Rodriguez said.

"Me gonna do da shootin' in case things gonna go down. Givin cover. Make it quick." Eric said.

"We are allowed to use our powers. The top brass will take care of the clean up." Doctor X informed us.

"Priority is to rescue hostages." Charles added.

"I will disguise as a scientist and infiltrate first." Miranda contributed.

"Me and Eric will help with escape if things go awry." Samantha said.

"I will provide Intel." Rodriguez said giving us earpieces for communication.

"Good. Sounds like a plan. Let's go." I ordered.

We managed to reach the location and Miranda used her power to change form into a scientist that walked out of the lab.

Juliet and me knocked him out and all the other guards.

Eric shot all those who got in our way in a clear cut execution shot that went right through their head.

"Here's the location. I sent on your phone. They keep some subjects there." Rodriguez voice crackled through the earpiece.

I took out my phone and showed it to Samantha.

"Got it. Hold my hand. You might get a bit dizzy." she said concentrating on the image.

We all held her hand and she used her power to teleport us to the location.

We all took out our weapons for any threat as we tried to get rid of the dizzy feeling.

It was dark.

"flashlight" I ordered.

Juliet turned on the light on her mini torch and Doctor turned on the one in his phone.

It was a large room. It smelt horrible and the room was filthy but we couldn't see anyone.

We heard some movements from the corner and moved quickly.

"DON'T MOVE! FBI!"

As soon as we saw the figure in front of us, we lowered our weapons in shock.

The scene before us was absolutely saddening and shocking.

We looked in horror at what we saw.

There was no way we could forget this. It would forever haunt our dreams.

We just stood there in shock, horror and sadness looking at the figures before us.

My heart ached and sadness flooded me.
