Vexy's POV: I stared at my kidnapper in complete and utter horror. Who is this guy? And why does he want me dead? Why me? I'm just a normal kid why does he want me dead, out of all people why me! "Why me?" I managed to choke out somewhat confidently. "Oh little Vexy finally found his voice eh?" He said glancing at me.

"Why me?" I asked again gaining more confidence.

"Well now, tell you what Vexy; I'll tell you why I chose you, if you do something for me." He said tracing his fingers over a six inch metal blade that laid on the metal tray.

"What is it?" I asked cautiously.

"I want you to call Carter and tell him you're fine and to stop the cops from looking for you. In return I'll tell you why, and I'll let you sit up on the table if you like?" He asked me as he traced over the restraints with this finger tips.

"Would you like that Vexy?" He said in a seductive tone. I nodded as he unwrapped the restraints slowly from my left wrist, and then my right. I rubbed my writs with the opposite hand and slowly sat up on the table.

"Now Vexy," He said as he stoked my cheek with the back of his left hand. "Why don't you call Carter, and I'll sit here next to you and listen in. And then I'll tell you everything that you want to know, okay?" I nodded out of fear as Jake handed me my cell phone and sat next to me on the table as I scrolled through my contacts and called Carter. Jake whispered to me and told me to put the call on speaker, I obeyed and hit the speaker button.

"Vex, Vexy is that you?! Where are you?! Are you okay!?" I looked at Jake and he nodded with his eyes still looking down at the phone.

"I'm fine Carter, just...just don't call me anymore okay." I said trying to stay calm.

"Good boy Vexy." Jake whispered to me putting his head on my right shoulder.

"Vexy what do you mean? No I'm not going to stop until I find you, he's going to kill you Vexious!"

"Okay that's enough, good boy." Jake said taking the phone out of my left hand and held it in his right.

"Darling little Carter, have you missed me since our first little chit- chat?" He asked in a sweet tone of voice.

"What did you do to Vexious you bitch!" I heard Carter growl.

"I did nothing to him, now look Carter I know you love little Vexy here but, I think he adores me more than you."

"Adores? You think he adores you? Whatever you're making him do he's not doing it because he wants to, he's doing it because he doesn't want you to kill him you psycho!" I heard Carter scream.

"Carter darling I'm trying to be nice here and you're making it a tad hard at the moment." Jake said getting slightly angry.

"I don't care just tell me where he is!" Carter said, he sounded like he was on the verge of tears.

"Now, now Carter don't cry, I wont harm Vexious - at least....not yet. You see, I still need him for something, so unless you find some way to stop me... he may or may not end up dead." Jake said rolling his eyes to the left so that he was looking at me and then back to the phone.

"Don't hurt him!" Carter said now crying.

"He won't hurt me Carter." I said and then covered my mouth with my hands after saying it. I wasn't even aware that I said anything until Jake looked at me and I realized that I spoke.

"Vexious, promise me something." I heard Carter say gaining more confidence in his voice.

"What?" I asked.

"Promise me that you'll make it out of there alive... one way or another. " Carter said. I chuckled slightly and said,

"Yeah well...it's not really up to me." I looked at Jake after I said that.

"Vexious darling, as long as you do as I say and stay quiet, you'll live." Jake whispered to me as he traced my jaw line with his index finger.

"Adieu dear Carter, until we talk again." Jake said ending the call. He took my phone and handed it to me.

"You can keep this for now, but I'll take if from you when I am not available to watch you and make sure you're not contacting anyone okay?" I nodded.

"So, now will you answer my questions?" I asked. Jake pushed off the table and stood in front of me.

"But of course Vexy, I am a man of my word." He said raising and eyebrow at me.

"Okay, so... why me?" I asked.

"Because Vexy... you're perfect." Jake said moving his eyebrows up and then down as he leand against the wall behind him and folded his arms. I gave him a confused look and he continued on. "You're perfect; good grades, no crimes committed not even minor ones, your virginity is still intact... you're perfect." He said.

"If I'm so perfect then why would you kill me?" I asked raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"Because, what better way to throw the cops off then to have the perfect teen be killed at my hands. They won't know why they'll have no motive and no on to suspect, and I'll get away."

"Maybe." I said. "Maybe, it depends." Jake said standing up as he pushed himself upright from the wall.

"On?" I questioned.

"On weather or not I can actually kill you." Jake said looking me in the eyes.

"You've killed so many people, so why would you be so apprehensive about killing me?" I asked with a slight edge to my voice. Jake stepped in front of me.

"Isn't it obvious?" He asked as he stroked my left cheek with the back of his left hand and stopped at my chin. He lifted my chin with this thumb and index finger so that I was looking into his eyes. "You're just to beautiful to kill." He whispered to me. I forced my eyes to look away from his and onto the floor.

"I just have one more question for you." I mumbled still looking at the floor as Jake his had his hand under my chin.

"And what is that Vexy?" He asked.

"Why did you start killing people, and why stop at me?" I asked turning my attention back on Jake. His hand left go on my chin and fell to his side.

"You see Vexious, it's much more complicated then you think. I am a machine."
