Ella's POV

My head screamed in pain as it felt like my skull was breaking apart.

I opened my eyes but I couldn't see anything. I started to panic, I couldn't be blind, I just couldn't. I tried to rub my eyes but my hands wouldn't move and that's when I realized they were tied behind my back. I also realized my feet were also tied together and there was something over my head.

I suddenly was jolted and hit something hard, a wall maybe? It was then it hit me, I was in the boot of a car.

My heart beat quickened and I felt sick and couldn't breathe. I calmed myself down, panicking wouldn't help me.

As the car hit a bump I rolled into the wall with a thump and hit my already hurting head on it.

I then had an idea. I rubbed my head against the wall of the boot and thankfully it was carpet. As I rubbed my head against it the friction grabbed at the bag over my head and with one swift motion I pulled the bag off.

My eyes didn't need to adjust to the darkness so I could see quite well in the dark. There wasn't much in here except for baseball bat, some rope and a bottle that I had a sneaking suspicion held something to knock me out just in case.

Ok think Ella, how do I get out of here? I asked myself.

I had an idea and I kicked myself around so my head was hopefully at the top of the boot and my feet where at the bottom near the tail lights and that.

I started kicking with all my might and after about 7 kicks I heard the satisfying smash of the glass of the tail light.

I laid down on my back and rested. Hopefully a policeman would see the smashed tail light, would pull over my kidnappers and would find me.

I had been in the boot for at least 2 hours. Where the hell were these people taking me?

I squirmed around, I really had to pee.

My heart jumped as I heard the familiar sound of a police car in the distance. I started to feel relieved as the sound came closer. Before long I could hear it was right behind us but all the car had done was speed up.

The sirens where blazing and it was at least 10 minutes before the car I was in slowed and pulled over. I heard the door open and someone get out, than someone else got out what I assumed was the passenger side. I could hear the crunch of their shoes on the gravel as they walked past the boot to meet the policeman.

There were a few muffled sounds as they talked so I started kicking against the boot.

"Help! Please help me!" I screamed.

I heard raised voices and the sound of fighting. I screamed as there was a bang and a loud thump.

The two people got back in the car and drove off fast enough to cause me to hit my head against the wall. They had shot him. They shot a policeman, and it was my fault.

I felt sick. Who knows what these people were going to do to me. I couldn't help but imagine all the sick and twisted things that could happen to me and before I knew it the car pulled over again.

The two people got out again and my heart was racing.

I heard them walk over to the boot and there was a small click. The boot door was pulled up and my eyes burned at the brightness. It was daytime, I must have been knocked out all night.

The two people stood before me. One was clearly a guy, but he had a mask over his face so I couldn't see his face, how cliché. Like seeing his face would be the worst thing he's worried about. He was tall and well built, but he looked only about 20.

The other one was a girl. She was thin and slender. Her black hair fell down around her waist and she too wore a mask and looked around the same age.

The man grabbed my arms and literally yanked me out of the car. I tried to kick out and squirmed and he dropped me.

"You little bitch" he swore for I had kicked him in the shin.

It would have been so much easier to escape if my legs weren't tied together.

He pulled me up and shoved something over my face. I started feeling dizzy as the strangest smell filled my nostrils. My vision disappeared and I blacked out.

Iggy's POV

I sat at my bedroom window as I listened to the police aimlessly walk around in the bushes near my house from where Ella disappeared.

All they had found was some blood and car tracks. It was getting dark so Ella had been gone for over 24 hours, which was the only reason we had finally got the police to take us seriously.

Max's mum was flying in tomorrow but our parents were still away.

"Hey" someone said and I recognized the voice as Angel's.

"Hey" I replied solemnly.

"They're trying their best" she said sitting next to me. I knew she was referring to the policemen. They were hopeless; we'd never find Ella this way.

"I know" I said bitterly.

"There's nothing you can do" She said putting her hand on mine.

There was a knock and I heard a few people walk in.

"The police are going to try all they can to find her, but they said it'll be difficult" Dylan said sadly.

"Well Fang and I are leaving tonight" Max said suddenly.

"What?" Angel, Nudge, Gazzy, Dylan and I all yelled at once.

"The police aren't going to do anything. We have to find her ourselves" Max said, her voice breaking.

"You don't even know where to start" Dylan said.

"Well do you have a better idea?" she snapped at him.

"I do" I said.

"You two can't just find her. You need more people. I'm in" I said with my chin up, daring someone to say otherwise.

"Ig, I know you love her, but you're in a bad condition. And your blind" Max said. I didn't even deny I loved her.

"I'm coming" I said with more force.

"Me too" Angel said squeezing my hand.

"Count me in" Gazzy piped up.

"And me" Dylan said.

"Of course I'm coming, Ella's my best friend, I'd do anything for her" Nudge said fiercely.

"So it's decided" I grinned triumphantly and I heard Max sigh.

"So your all willing to give up your time, probably a lot of time of school, maybe even your lives? We'll be running away from our homes. Ella was kidnapped guys, we'll be travelling all around trying to find her, running into dangers and probably murderers" Max said, trying to scare us off.

"Yes" we all chorused.

"Ok then. We leave tonight" she stated.
