Ransom

Piper started to hyperventilate as she clutched her head. Jason tried to soothe her and tell her to breathe and all the rest, but to no avail. Suddenly, Piper's hands dropped to her sides and she fell into Jason's arms. "Pipes?" Jason breathed.
She did not respond, only stared straight ahead at the sky with no expression on her face. "No!" He screamed as he cried over her body.
Then, a hooded figure appeared and Piper's body shimmered away. "Wha-?" Jason started as he looked up to the figure. "Who are you?" He asked with wide and confused eyes.
"That doesn't matter. Let's get to the point." The figure said. She was female. "If you want Piper back, give me Allie." The woman said.
Jason squinted his eyes as he asked "Are you asking me to pick between my wife and my daughter?"
"No, frankly I did not know that you had a daughter." The woman responded. "Then who?" Jason asked.
"Allie White." The woman responded.
