"What do you want from me?"
"Noah, but I have that. So, I'm going to torture you for fun," she sickly smiles.
"Well, before you do... I have a request."
Piper leans closer a bit. "Yeah, whatever."
"Can I go to the restroom?" I ask. James looks at me like I'm crazy. "Yeah, because you wouldn't want to die with a full bladder!" he snarls.
"What did you want me to ask?"
"I don't know, how about let us go," LaTroy sneers.
"Go." Abi says. She unties me and points to the restroom on the other side of the room. I quickly walk over to it and go in.
Ozzy
IS SHE MENTAL?! Out of all things the girl could've asked, she chose to say that! Gosh, this woman is crazy. I knew she was crazy. Coming back here. Why didn't I stop her? Just tell her Noah's dead, and there's nothing she could do? Never liked the squib anyway...
"Would you let us go?" Piper asks.
"Who asked that?" Abi asks, turning around.
"I did."
"Itty, bitty, baby, Piper," she says, coming closer with every word, until she reaches her face.
{This line^}
"Yes!"
"Stand down Piper," James sneers.
"Well, Piper. You're not leaving!"
"Why not?"
"Because I said so!"
"Every mum's excuse," Piper sings in Abi's face. Is she really trying to kill us all? Usually, Piper would be shaking with anxiety.
"Shut it!"
"Or what?"
Abi slaps her. The sound echoes through the room. I suck air through my teeth. That's going to leave a mark... "Ouch."
"Piper, shh! You are NOT making this situation any better!" I scold.
"You should listening to your friend here." Abi advises.
"Whatever."
Richelle
Okay, now all I have to do is break this thing. If I break it, then it should set off another pipe in a room upstairs. According to the blueprint that is. Will all might I have I stop on it. Yes! It broke. Now, before this crappy water gets on my shoes, I'm going to leave.
I walk out and close the door behind me, sending an invisible wink to Ozzy. He knots his eyebrows at me. Oh, Oswald.
Abi begins to tie me up, before one of her minions comes through the door. "Madame Bergman, there's a leak upstairs. It's really big..."
"Then fix it," Abi rolls her eyes.
"Um, I don't know how..."
"Then get Deb to do it!"
"He doesn't know how either..."
"Ugh, what do I even keep you all for?" she asks, leaving the room. Making sure she locks it behind her, she glares at me.
"I'm your uncle..." I hear the man mumble behind the door. I snicker at this. "Out of all things you could've asked you chose to go to the restroom?!" Amanda asks, scolding me.
"I have a plan! I'm no idiot! When have I ever disillusioned you?" I ask.
"Considering the fact that we're tied up against our will, I think you have!" James says.
"Shut it, Tordjman! I have a plan!" I wiggle my wrists out of the grip of the ropes. To think she would've tightened them...
I untie my feet and do the same to everyone else. "Now, you see that window over there, we're going to go out of it. Then this will all be over!"
"What about, Noah?" LaTroy asks me. Whoops, forgot about him. I was just about to say something, but realized that this is going to have to come to an end. The team never liked me anyway.
"Listen guys, I'm going to get Noah. All of you are going to escape. I don't want to hear any oppositions, especially from you Ozzy. This story- my story, was never going to have a happy ending to it anyway. My years at The Next Step have been amazing. I never got to be dance captain, or famous, but meeting my best friends there were worth it. Even if it meant going through self harm, getting kicked out of my home, and kidnapped. I'm staying here. I'm going to get Noah out of this mess. I'm going to stop Abi. It's what I need to do, and I don't care about anything you have to say about Ozzy, James, and Piper." I say. This has been fun, but fun always has to come to an end.
"But you can't-"
"I can, and I will." I cut Ozzy off. "You guys promise me one thing, alright?" They all nod. "Kick those Gemini's asses at the qualifiers for me."
They all nod. "Now, go. Go now, before she comes back." They all rush off to the window, slowly going out, but Ozzy turns around and hugs me. I hug him back, and sigh. "I'll miss you..."
"I'll miss you too, Ozzy. One last thing."
"Yeah?"
"Take em' to Internationals for me."
"I will..." he says. I watch him hurry off to the team. I won't cry. I'm Richelle Nolet. I got this. These moths have been great, but not great enough knowing that I wont make it out of here. So much unnatural things have happened; it's not even convincing if someone tells this story. I'm going to stop this shit. No matter what it takes.
