Chapter 36~ You'll remember soon

As I was taken downstairs, and I was not ready for the smell of blood as it went up my nose. The officer walked me over to a chair and sat me down.

"Just stay there will a ambulance comes." He said and I slowly nodded, looking past him as he walked away.

Just feet away from me was someone's body on the ground, a black cover thrown over it, hiding whoever it was that was dead. I then heard someone laugh lightly making me look up to see no other then Tobias patting himself down. "I know I have it in here somewhere." He said as he looked through his jacket pockets. The officer was just taping his foot. "Remind me to not leave any keys with you." Keys? What was going on? Should Tobias be in handcuffs or something... "Ah, here they are." He said pulling out a set of keys and handing them over. The officer just said thanks and walked over to the set of closet doors that led to the cages down stairs. I was pulled out of my thought when someone said my name. I looked up seeing it was Tobias who was walking towards me.

"You okay?" He asked as he got closer and I just looked at him. Why the living heck was he not in cuffs? He must of read my thought or something because he let out a 'oh' and looked down at his hands.

"I-um-how do I put this?" He said sitting down next to me.

"I guess you could say I'm a undercover person." He said rubbing his forehead.

"But-but-your dad is a-" He just smiled.

"Ya, he's a slave owner. He just doesn't know that his son, me, turned myself in a few years back and that I'm basically helping the cops."

He said giving me a wide grin.

I was still confused. But kinda understanding what he met, he looked at the figure on the ground. "Who is that?" I asked looked at Tobias who looked over at the figure.

"Forest. He went to kill one of the cops and I shot him." He said looking down at his shirt and I saw what he was looking at, blood splatter.

That was when my attention was snapped towards the broken front door as four paramedics came rushing in with a structure and they all quickly went racing up the stairs with it. I could feel someone's eyes on me and it made me turn my head to see Sean, sitting cross-legged on the ground with a bloody nose. He looked mad. When I looked back at the figure, taking Tobias word that it was Forest, I looked down at my shaking hands, Chip's words repeating in my head before he got shot.

I'm innocent.

What did he mean by innocent? Was he framed or something? Shaking my head, I looked up as someone called my name, strong arms wrapping around me and pulling me into a hug.

"Your okay." It was Luke and he had dirt all over his face and hands and I squeaked out his name. "Luke, squeezing-breath." I said as I looked over to see Will helping what looked like Heath up the stairs who was limping and holding his one arm that he got shot in a strange why. Luke let me go and he was about to say something when everyone looked towards the stairs to see the paramedics bring the structure down the stairs, a pale Chip strapped tightly onto it.

They had taken off his shirt and wrapped up his wounds real quick just with some white bandages that were already being bled through. His arms were cuffed tightly in front of him, one strap running across his cuffed hands that kept them pinned to his stomach. Two officers followed behind and I could only watch as they rushed him out of the house. I lowered my gaze down towards the floor. I felt like he was going to shot me, he could of, he had the perfect chance to kill me but yet, he got himself shot, was he trying to tell me that he was innocent by getting shot? I rubbed my head and looked over as a officer pulled Sean to his feet and patted him down will two officers brought Mason and the man known as Alan from upstairs. Mason just kept his head low as the officer walked him outside, Alan on the other hand didn't really go much without sharing a few words.

"All of you are going to die!" He yelled as the officer finally got him outside. Sean was soon walked past as us and I had to take a step back so he didn't 'bump' into me.

After they had gotten them outside, I looked up to see that Atticus had his arm wrapped around Aby, who had her face buried into his side. Atticus meet my gaze and he gave me a soft smile, I returned it before my head snapped back towards the door to see a man wearing a bullet vest walking in. He stopped in front of us and I quickly know him as Agent Charles Wolfe.

"It's good to see half of you." He spoke and I gave him a small smile, still not believing all of this was happening.

"We're going to transport each you to the local hospital where you well be checked and your families well be waiting for- are your okay?" He suddenly asked, looking at me.

I blinked a few times looking at-two agents? What the heck? I shook my head and placed my hand on my forehead. He moved towards me, someone was saying my name but it all sounded like a blob and I let out a little moan, taking a step back, only to feel someone's hands on me.

"Skyyylerrrr?" The voice asked and I felt like everything was starting to spin.

"Catch her!" Some yelled just as I fell backward.

I didn't even get a chance to see who caught me before I blacked out.




*Beep....beep.......beep.....beep.......beep......beep......beep*

My eyes slowly opened to the beeps that were slowly taking place and I was forced to blink due to the bright light fixed above me. Where am I? I went to move one of my arms to place it over my eyes to keep them from burning from the fixed light above but a tug made my stop and I slowly glanced over at my shoulder. Needle's were taped into my arm, a blue wrist band was around my wrist and I furrowed my eyes in confusion. What the heck is going one? I looked around to find myself in what looked like some hospital room. I slowly sat up and looked over my the window to see someone sitting in a chair, they were pulled into a ball and sleeping, their hair a wild mess, a black jacket was covering their body that stopped at their neck. I know their face from somewhere.

"Hello?" My voice came out as scratchy making me place a hand on my throat and looking at the person as they snapped awake, rubbing their face with their hands. They looked around with narrowed eyes before they say me and they quickly got up, the jacket falling onto the ground with a thump. They moved towards me until their hands were rested on the side of the bed.

"Do I know you?" I asked, meeting their eyes, they looked tried.

"Yes you do." They responded.

"No-no I don't." I shot back and they just ran their hand through their hair.

"Come on, it's me, Luke." He said softly. I just blinked.

Do I know a Luke?

I licked my lips. "I don't know you, Luke." I said slowly, trying to see if the name stuck, but it didn't. It just slipped out like a snail.

He lowered his gaze before he stood up and walked towards the door where he opened it and disappeared. I looked at the door for a minute before I grabbed a bit of my hair and looked it, it was purple. Since when did I dye my hair purple? I looked at it more until a loud shout of pain made me jump. I looked towards the door as I heard other people moving around. What was going on? Slowly shifting my body so it was on the side of the bed, I touched my feet lightly onto the ground and a wave of coldness meet me in return. I shattered at the touched but slowly got myself standing up. I looked towards the machine that had the wires connected to it that were connected to the needles in my arm. Sighing, I pulled the machine with me quietly until I got over to the door where I opened it, loud sounds soon taking place. I slowly stepped out into the hall to see people rushing back and forth, and when I looked towards one room, I saw the boy who said he was Luke talking to a man. The man moved back a little to show a small hospital room, and boy who had hair that was wild. He looked like he was sleeping but when I squinted my eyes, I saw that one of his arms was cuffed to the bed. That was strange.

"Skyler?" A voice said from behind me making me let out a yelp of surprise meet and turn around to meet yet another boy's face. He looked kind.

He cracked a small smile. "I don't think you suppose to be out of the bed." I then noticed that his arm was in a sling, his shoulder wrapped up.

"I-I-" I couldn't find my words.

The boy just smiled, reaching over and placing his got hand on my shoulder. "Let's get you back into the bed before the doctor finds out."

He said softly pushing me towards the door.

"Heath?" Luke said turning his attention towards us.

"Yes?"

"Why is she out of the bed?" He said walking towards us.

"I don't know, I just saw her standing here." He said removing his hand from my shoulder and looking at Luke who whispered him something. I only caught a little of it.

Few more hours, memory loss.

Blinking a few times, I returned my attention towards the boy cuffed to the bed. There was maybe two officers sitting in a chair by the door and I could only guess he had done something wrong. But his face, I felt like I know him. I just couldn't put my finger on it, and it was going to drive me crazy. Rory? No. Marcus? No no. Nate? No... Who was this boy?

"Sky?" Luke said breaking me from my thought, I looked at him.

"Let's get you back into the bed." He said smiling a little.

"Who is that?" I said pointing at the boy in the bed and Luke looked over his shoulder for a second before he looked back towards me and slowly pushed my back into the room, answering my question.

"You'll remember in a few hours."
