my mind mauled over the advice Nikki had given me. When I saw Iwen I went ahead and got in the car. By the time we reached his house I felt exhausted but so awake at the same time. It was extremely strange. I walked into the house and changed into my pajamas and fed Rex. He seemed very intrigued by the scents on my clothing from the day. He was most likely trying to decide what was what. I gave the dog a pat on the head. ”If you want to go ahead and go to sleep I should be there soon.” I told Owen with a small smile. Of course he didn’t have to sleep with me but I wanted him to have an option. In all honesty I didn’t think I’d get any sleep. I made my mint tea and drank it while Rex rolled about at my feet. I let myself fall into deep thought. I wanted to escape tonight. The day had felt so short yet so long. It was strange. Rex let out a few growls every now and then which was also strange but I could ignore that.

xxx I hated feeling this sick all the time. It was like I needed to try to constantly fight off whatever was bothering me every single day. I hated the feeling of worry that shot through me whenever I thought about it. I tried to shrug the thought but it was difficult. I took in a deep breath trying to calm myself down but of course it didn’t work which was a pity. A rare moment had occurred but I didn’t Denver the drive home. That never happened... ever. Strange. I only nodded when she suggested that I got to bed. I kissed her forehead gently wanting to wrap my arms around her but I stopped myself and decided to go elsewhere. I flopped into bead without really thinking about it. Or what I was wearing...

The orders were clear. Get them without harming them. Hoskins knee hey we’re together. It was like the imtwo of them were conjoined st the hip. The two of them have been dating for a while now and it appears as though this would make this months session all the more.. intreagueing. Hoskins gave the order for his troop to capture anyone in the household. Which hopefully would just be Owen and Dawn.

There was a sinking feeling deep in my stomach. Something was extremely off. Rex did nothing to calm my worries. I stratched behind his ear and laid back against the couch. I drank my tea hoping it sooth me and it did. For a while I thought I might get sleep. Rex went into a barking fit though. He growled at the door. ”Nothing’s out here buddy. It’s alright.” I wished I could believe those words. I didn’t feel strong or entergetic enough to fight anyone. I wasn’t sure whether I had locked the door or not but I was afraid to move. Was someone really there? I waited for movement as I wished I had brought my gun from the car in. I stood up and put down my drink. Rex stood in front of me. I prepared myself for whatever was about to happen. To my dismay, only one name came to mind. Vic Hoskins. I didn’t jump to the conclusion though. Nothing was there it seemed. I went to check on Owen. He was sleeping. Good. Now I could relax a little more. I went and grabbed my tea and laid back. Nothing was coming to get me.

xxx Why on earth was I this tired? It was illogical as even with the new medications added to my regiment it still made next to no sense that I was this tired all the time. I leaned back into the bed and closed my eyes trying to drift off to sleep. That’s when I felt the people rush towards me and hold me down. It was Hoskins and his goons.... I slowly fell asleep again.

One of the men opened the door Hoskins watching. They radioed that they had Owen but there was someone in the house. Someone who was preventing them from taking him. He gritted his teeth and asked a few others to join them. The three people marched through the door rifles in hand. The other two were trying to drag Owen out of the room
He was in. That’s when the barking started. Hoskins grabbed a pistol and entered the shack as well “well well well, living with Grady now are we?” he hissed

Once more, just as it had months ago, all of my breath left my body. Just like that. I couldn’t breathe for a few moments but my mind quickly grasped what was going on. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Rex about to lounge and attack like he had been taught to do. Honestly, if they hadn’t had guns, I would’ve let him. I tried to call a warning to Owen but it was pretty clear there was no escape. I grabbed Rex by 5he collar to keep him from attacking. Rex got the message but didn’t stop growling. It was an angry, deep rumble. He knew I was in danger and he wanted to protect me. For a moment I felt a swell of pride. That dog had survived so much and he wasn’t done fighting. Now I really wished I had my pistol near. ”What the hell Hoskins. What is going on?” probably isn’t the bets idea to snap at someone who was pointing a pistol at you but, hey, did you expect me to stay calm? A thought did come to me though. I had a pistol in my bag. If I could get to it maybe I’d be able to shot quickly and surprise them allowing myself to escape. It was risky though. Rex was still crouched at my feet, blocking me off.

xxx Hoskins allowed a sly smirk to cross his features as he continued to aim the pistol at dawn. He would be willing to use it. He saw the dog as well as gestured to one of his goons to grab her. Maybe. “it’s time for Grady to be tortured for the project. Monthly of course but we had to let the wound heal... you weren’t supposed to be here. But since you are, I will have to take you up on my offer to watch. Seize her” I commanded sternly. I didn’t want this to be messy. I hope she calls the dog off. They sick Owen on a straw her and began to take him outside.

God knows I didn’t go out without a fight. Of course I would’ve tried a little harder if they hadn’t had guns. For some reason I didn’t like getting shot. I wonder why. (Cough~ Sarcasm) Rex snapped at one of the men. To keep Rex from getting himself killed, I kicked him in the chest just hard enough to send him backwards away from me and the men. Thankfully, that was enough. Rex didn’t try to fight anymore. “Let go of me.” I snapped again as I struggled. I needed to get to Owen. We needed to leave. This couldn’t be happening again. Worse, this time I had managed to get myself caught with little hope of helping Owen or I escape. It didn’t stop me from being fiesty and fierce as usual.

xxx Hoskins smirked again as she struggled of course she was not going to make this easy. “Grady would love an audience, other than blue of course. I’ll be sure to make it good Sweetheart” I said as I walked over to her but still not super close as she was thrashing quite a bit. “knock her out and take her to the lab with Grady”

My glaring blue eyes dug at Hoskins. I couldn’t help but loathe him in that moment. I felt something flash against the back of my head and everything around me spun before going dark. My whole body tensed up. I felt weak. The last thing I saw was Rex snarl and lunge towards Hoskins and growl. I would’ve called him off to keep him safe but I couldn’t. I couldn’t speak. After a moment everything went black. I could hear but I could move or see. It was like I was with David all over again. Unable to move. Unable to save him. I felt helpless as I listened to the sounds around me, hoping and praying to hear Rex’s thundering paw steps lead away from me and nothing else. ”Don’t hurry him” was all I managed to say.

xxx Clearly Hoskins has the dog jump at him so he did what he had to do. He shot the pistol twice to avoid being bit. Of course he regretted doing so right after he saw the dog fall to the ground. What had he done? He didn’t care, he did pity her a bit but of course even that faded slowly.. dripping away without thinking about it. The lab was quick away from here. Everything was set up soon.

xxxOwen was tied on his knees with his wrists above his head holding him up. He was still asleep of course when Hoskins manages to make it to the lab. Dawn was somewhere through one of the one way mirrors so that she could see everything as it happened. He was probably more the usiastic about this than he should’ve been.
