6.

Violet

Hearing that voice made me quiver in fear. My body froze as my mind was racing on what to do. Everything in my body was telling me to run, but my feet would not listen. Standing there in front of him brought all the horrible memories back. As I finally got the courage to move, I felt a hand clasp down on my upper left arm. Turning around, he was now chest to chest with me.

"Get the hell off me!" I cried out as I struggled to pull my hand from his grasp.

"Not in a million years." He hissed with a smirk. "We're gonna finish what we started." He moved in closer, lips mere inches from mine.

"Hell no!" I reached up, slapping him with my free hand. His grip got tighter on my arm as his face lit up with pure rage.

"You're going to pay for that!" He growled, yanking me even closer to him. Hearing my name being called, I snapped my head around.

"M-" I tried screaming, only to have a hand clamp down on my mouth muffling the rest. Wigging in his arms, I tried everything I could to break his hold, but it was no use. He was much stronger than I was. I felt myself being pulled back as I scanned the lobby for where Mike was. Tears ran down my face as I was pulled into a dark, isolated hallway. Seeing Mike, Shauna, and Alex run past, I tried screaming again, only to have my cries muffled.

Mike

Rushing over to where the screaming was coming from, I looked in disappointment as we found two young children playing around. I really thought it was Vi. Standing there, I ran my fingers through my short and now messy hair. I felt horrible. How could I have let this happen? I can not lose her again. I plan on getting her back and making him pay for everything that he has done to her. Shaking from all the anger and emotions running through me, I forgot about Shauna and Alex until I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"It's going to be okay Mike..." Shauna tried calming me down.

"No it's not!" I yelled in anger. "She is gone and it's all because of me!" I felt the warmth of tears hitting my cheeks.

"Mike stop!" Shauna demanded. "It's not your fault! It's no one's fault! He is just delusional and doesn't know when to stop. He is obsessed with her." She added, shaking her head.

"Well, we need to find her before he can do anything else." I stated, as I began walking toward the elevator. Hitting the button, I waited for the doors to open before getting in and heading to our floor.

Violet

As they walked back to the elevator, I felt a sense of defeat. I was right there and they could not see me. If only I could get away from him right now, I could be in Mike's arms in a matter of moments. I had to think of something to do so that I could get away from him. Looking over at the elevators, I saw no one standing there. As I was thinking of how to get away, an ever too familiar voice rang through my ears.

"Good job Cody." I looked up to see a smirking Ted.

"NO!" I screamed, only to have it muffled. Swinging my shoulders, I was able to loosen Cody's hold on me. Raising my elbow, I hit him right in the face, not caring about the damage I caused. Looking over at Ted, his face was red with anger. As Cody leaned over holding his face, I tried to run, only to be grabbed by Ted. Raising my knee, I gave him a swift kick to the groin, sending him down to the floor. Making my way to the stairs, since the elevator would take too long, I busted through the doors as I ran up the stairs. As I was about to open the door, I heard screams coming from the bottom.

"Violet!!!" Ted hissed, pure rage in his voice.

I knew I had to get away or things would not be too easy. Reaching the floor I wanted, I pushed the door open, only to bump into someone.
