David's POV:

The place was dark and smelled of rotten things mixed with marijuana smoke. I felt around the walls and found a switch. i turned it on and the whole place lighted up to reveal a large hall.

'Be careful everyone', the detective said turning to me.

'let's just go', I said walking past him not wanting to waste any more time. We walked for a while before we made it to a large steel door. 'Something's not right'. it was getting so simple but why. Just then a gunshot was heard and one of the police men fell down holding his side.

More men came out and started shooting. i opened the steel door and the sight inside was enough for me to break down. Daniel was on the floor with his whole body chained and bleeding. He looked dead. I went closer to him afraid that I might hurt him.

'Daniel', I whispered gently touching his cheek.

'Da..v..i.d', he whispered gently. He looked unsure if I was really the one. I removed all the chains and helped him to walk outside. By now everyone in the building had been arrested even his psychotic uncle and his wife. His uncle and wife passed us disgusted. I didn't care, what worried me now was Daniel.

We reached the hospital and he was taken away while I sat down tugging at my hair frustratingly. I feared that he might not survive. What i mostly feared was losing him. I can't. I don't think I can survive it. Not again and not ever. My thoughts was interrupted by someone calling my name. i turned to see it was the doctor.

'How is he', I asked impatiently.

'He's vitals are okay but I'm afraid he sustained a lot of injuries which might take a while to heal', I nodded and he walked away. At least he will be alright. What I have to do is go talk to that son of a bitch that did this to him...
