Chapter 16

My heart was pounding million times are minute As legs treed forward towards the blackness of the night sky , breathless and worn out I was a bearly able to keep myself upright , struggling to keep going when all I wanted to do was give up. My limbs trembling underneath my weight , it was getting harder to keep moving , the goons had been chasing me for while now and my feet were killing me , swollen and bruised .The pain from them was unbearable.

To be honest I wanted to give up , the pain in my feet was more than what I could bear , then I remembered the promise I made to my father to always take care of Amanda and the rest of siblings. So with that in mind , I soldiered on as tried out run my attackers but the pian in my feet had reached a new high and I couldn't take it any longer, so I decide hide in one of the bushes.

Holding my breath try not make a sound , cause it would mean my immediate demise . The goons paced around my hiding spot making me more anxious with each moment that passed, I was terrified . If they found it would be over for me and my sister, so keep it in mind made sure not make any sound as I said a silent prayer to the Lord so that am not discovered and by the grace of God they get tired searching and left

After making sure the ghost is clear I continued moving until I reached are safe place to lay my head for the night and I slept I took thirty minutes to rest , to rest my aching feet , when I woke up I continued to follow the map monic had given me , it took me some time due to my injuries , in perfect world I would have easily drove there or catch are cab but I had no money so all could do was walk

Ignoring the pain in my feet I soldiered on I had been walking for days and the wounds on my feet were so sore and painful but only one thing in mind to save my sister and nothing was going to stop me besides I only had one mile left and I could do this it was all for Amanda I had to be strong , I arrive at warehouse in Memphis in the wee hours of the morning I quickly make a permitter check to find how many guards are stationed at each of the entrances, the place was literally like Fortnox with ten guards at each of the entrances . the only way out was to wait until they fell asleep

I held a stake out outside the warehouse for hours until late in the night when all the gaurds slept I sneaked into the warehouse once in i started to look for my sister, the warehouse was filled with half naked girls sleeping on top of each other on the cold hard dirty floor the girls were living like pigs the place was filthy , smelly with a lot of hoarded items with molds on them I couldn't help but cry at the sight of conditions my sister was living in which made my blood boil with rage I wanted to skin them alive for what they had done to my sister.

But right now the most important thing was find my sister, checking girl per girl as walked through all the girls who where passed out on the cold floor there not even covered given how cold it was the place was like living in a cooler , these people were animals who couldn't offer a decent warm covering for these poor girls and I was going to make them pay with thier lives.

once I made it out of here. it took hours of searching but I finally found my sister, they had cut her long ginger red hair, our father was Irish and he had ginger red hair and green eyes features that Amanda inherited. she had lost significant amount of weight bearly able to speak she was basically a shadow of her former self which infuriated me further , how dare touch her and harm her they were going to pay dearly .

"Amanda wake up its me Holly , wake up we don't have much time ."I whispered

"I'm dreaming again , Holly isn't really here she abandoned me to rot here , come on Amanda stop dreaming ." Amanda mutters under her breath

This breaks Holly's heart on hearing her sister's words she couldn't help but hate herself for being the cause of her sister's pain "no it's really me ,Amanda wake up ."Holly said in tears

Amanda couldn't believe her drowsy eyes she was face to face with Holly was really there alive and in living color the two sisters cried profusely as they embraced each other for the first time in over a year they couldn't believe there luck there so happy to have found each other after months of being apart it was amazing like beautiful dream that Holly never wanted to wake up from she wanted the moment last forever . She was over following joy and happiness for having found her sister

"We have to go, before the gaurds wake up Amanda ."Holly said

"We can't ."Amanda replies

"And why not ?"

"Jessica is also here we need to find her."Amanda replies

All in hearing that blood rushes to Holly's head and she blacks out when she awakens and hopes that it was all dream .

Your were not dreaming Amanda said standing over Holly you can't be serious even my best friend had been kidnapped and forced into this life too yes holly was recently brought in with new recruits they have been feeding her drugs cause she refused to sleep with the men given to her

"Say it's not true , Amanda." Holly replies in tears

Am sorry Holly, but it's true she was kidnapped outside her house when she was on her way to work ever since then she has been here being tortured , drugged , raped. please Holly your her only hope ." Amanda narrates , tears run down Holly's face knowing that I was the cause of not only her sister's pain but also her best friend it was such a bitter pill to sallow ,

Right now it's not time for tears but action

Your right my sister let's go so me and Holly set out to find Jessica while freeing the girls we came across we finally found Jessica and took her along girls we freed by time were done freeing all the girls it was 5am, I knew we had only thirty minutes to make it as far away as we can before the gaurds from the warehouse awaken , but one of them awakes before time we anticipated and alerted the others from then on the chase was on.

So we ran like our life depended on it cause it that moment it did , panting as adrenaline surged through our bodies like current fueling our muscles as we tried to out run the danger that was lurking behind us but our luck soon runs out when of guards start to close the distance between us , we were absolutely terrified if they caught up with us it would mean our immediate death .

The girls were counting on me to get them to safety so with that mind, I tell girls to run even faster in hopes of out running our attackers, they chased us through the valley to the forest we were starting to to tire ourselves out our muscles and limbs were aching but due to our reazilence and determination we had made it to home stretch to our freedom we're going to be free at last all my years of plotting and planning were about to pay off

When suddenly a shot is fired .
