The Kidnapper

I walked out of the small gap in the house and suddenly I heard the gun shots again.
And this time they sounded close.

The first sound of it made me jump, but a vision of Harry came into my head.
I need to find him.

Instead of deciding what to do, I don't waste a second. I run as fast as I can deeper into the forest.

I must have been running for 5 minutes, the sound of the firing bullets were fading and I was officially lost.

But I don't stop.
Suddenly, something beneath me causes me to trip and I fall to the ground on my stomach. My hands come infront of me within the last second to protect me slightly from the harsh fall.

I lay on the ground and my hair was in my face, my hands were covered in mud, along with the rest of my clothes.
I turn slowly onto my back and grown from the small amount of pain.

As I sit up, my eyes are drawn to an object that terrifies me.

There was blood everywhere, and laid against a tree almost staring at me was a dead body.
I cover my mouth with the palm of my hand to stay quiet.
My heart sped up to the piont where my head was pounding and all I want to do is scream.

Instead, I try to calm down and as I try to do so, I struggle to stand up.
My hand stayed against my mouth, but it came down next to me when the feeling of screaming left my body. After I walked about 15 feet away.

The sky was getting dark, but the moon wasn't out yet. The trees whispered, their leaves whistled their song as the birds stopped there's. The wind shoke me, like a pepper shaker and the cold air forced me to hold my arms.
I was still wearing the outfit that I had worn yesterday, but the shirt was only ripped to shreds, along with my pants that were covered in a mixture of mud and blood. My skin, according to my arms and legs, were still covered in dust and my face can't look much different.

As I continue walking straight, or what I think is straight, a fog started to pick up and soon I couldn't see anything.

"Catherine!"
I hear suddenly from a distance and that voice rattled me, it made my heart beat faster.

"Harry!"
I try to yell, but I haven't noticed til now that my throat was clogged with a coating of something.
It prevented me to talk.
My voice cracked and it squeaked at a high pitch.

My head felt light and my vision became blurry so fast, but I refuse to sit down.

I keep on walking towards the voice, deeper into the foggy forest, full of danger.
I stop in my footsteps when I start to hear the sound of heavy boots coming closer, they were coming fast and it didn't seem that they were going to stop.

"Harry"
I whisper and something falls on top of me from behind.
I scream and the thing grabs me forcefully, to put his hand over my mouth
When it's arms turn me around, still on top of me, I realized that It was Harry.

"Catherine, you shouldn't be here"
He said and his grip around me tightened.

"I had no choice"
I said and looked at his face, it was slightly bloody, but not as bloody as I am.

"There's always a choice"
he said and looked into my eyes

"Harry, I need to tell you something"
I started to say, but a gun shot was fired at the tree next to us, the fog was clearing and I saw a small group of people walking towards us.

"Tell me later"
Harry siad as we rushed to our feet and began to run away.
The others ran after us, they weren't going to give up easily.

We ran faster and non stop.
It felt like an hour of running when Harry and I finally stop.
My legs felt like sticks that were about to snap any second and my arms hurt.
The breathes I took were hard and they hurt my stomach, along with my heart that pounded inside my chest.

We were right beside the end of the forest.
With the trees then the ocean below us.
It was a cliff, a deady one.

I could see the sun on the horizon, ready to set and the fog was starting to come back, the wind could have picked me up, if it wasn't for Harry, who was holding my hand.

We were up so high I could barely breathe, I just could about see my breath.

"I'm scared"
I say and look at him, his face looked as frightened and his hand entwined around mine.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?"
I heard as there was a group of boys coming closer to us, suddenly from the depths of the forest.

It was Colin that was infront of the 4 faces that I remember.
They were Harry's gang members.
I knew each ones name bu heart.
But Liam was missing.

"Catherine, I thought I sent Liam to fetch you"
he said and gave me the look like there was a plan A before he died.

"He died"
I managed to say though my sour throat, I held back the tears and I let go of Harry's hand.

"Oh yeah, that's right."
Colin said and smiled devilishly at the ground.

"I want you to know Catherine..I never wanted to hurt you."

"What are you going to do now? Kill me and take her?"
Harry said breaking the moment in a brave way and even though I wasn't holding his hand, I could feel his jaw tightening and his muscles coming together, ready to throw a punch.

"No..I'm just going to kill her."
He said simply and pulled his gun out, it was aimed at my head and he took steps forward.
I could feel the end of the gun on my forehead and it gave me chills.
