*Austin's POV*

Leanna came over to Phil and I almost a half hour ago telling us that Faith and Rue were going to the restroom but I haven't seen any sign of Faith anywhere.

"Something is wrong. I can feel it in my bones." I start pacing back and forth in front of a few people who are actually sobered up. My heart is beating so fast and I feel sick to my stomach knowing that I broke a promise to Faith.

"Austin, look." Jamie points behind me and I turn around to see Rue running towards us. As she gets closer, I see tears streaking down her face and my heart drops. Phil runs to her and engulfs her into a hug.

"F-Faith's g-gone. Someone t-took her." Rue's voice echoes through my mind.Someone took Faith. Ian fucking has Faith. My blood boils and I storm off in the direction Faith went earlier.

"Austin, where are you going?" Zoe runs after me but I ignore her. All I can see is red and I can hear my heartbeat in my ears. "Austin!" She shouts grabbing my arm.

"What?!" I yell, turning towards her. She takes a step back and her eyes grow wide. "I'm not going to sit around when that fucking psycho has my girlfriend!" Tears finally well up in my eyes and I let them flow freely. "I-I can't lose her, Zoe." I stare down at one of my close friends and she wraps her arms around me, sobbing into my shirt. I hug her as best as I can and cry. My heart shatters into a million pieces as I think about what is happening to Faith right now. "We have to find her, fast." I speak through my tears.

"I know." Zoe pulls away and wipes away her tears. Before she can say anything else, my phone vibrates in my pocket and I'm truly scared to look at it. I quickly wipe my eyes and pull out my phone. "What is it?" Zoe stands beside me.

"It's a text message." I look at who sent it and almost pass out. "From Faith's phone." Bile rises in my throat as I open the message. Zoe gasps from the picture that comes up. My whole world stops as I stare at my beautiful girlfriend bound to a chair and gagged with a bandana. Her head is bleeding, blood running down her beautiful face. What causes me to lose it is when I notice she isn't awake. "WHAT THE FUCK?!" I scream, grabbing the attention of everybody within ear shot. "I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL HIM!" My voice is horse from crying and screaming. I drop down to my knees, clutching my phone in my hand to my chest. Everything seems like it's crashing around me. I have to find her.

*Faith's POV*

The pounding in my head is what causes me to come out of my unconscious state. I feel something in my mouth and I run my tongue over it. My eyes fly open when I realize it's a bandana to gag me. I look around the dimly lit room and all I see is concrete walls. I go to run a hand through my hand but something stops me. Metal clanks against the chair I'm sitting in and I shift my gaze down to my hands. They are handcuffed to the chair and I let out a whimper as I try to get my hands out of them. My heart beat speeds up and I feel like puking.

"You're never getting out of those, darlin'." His voice makes me scream behind the makeshift gag in my mouth. I see his silhouette walking towards me and I cringe away. His face is shadowed against the light hanging above my head but I can see how pale he is. "It was easier than I thought to get a hold of you." He walks around me and twirls a piece of my hair in his fingers. Bile rises in my throat at his touch. "You know, I could kill you right now." He states, pulling out a knife as he kneels in front of me. "But I won't because what's the fun in that? I am going to have some fun with you first." The smirk across his lips is disgusting and evil. I want to kick him but unfortunately, my feet are chained to the chair as well. I glare at him, hoping my look would kill him. "Would you like to speak?" I don't do anything, I just keep my glare locked on his gaze. He reaches up with the knife and I flinch away. "Don't be a bitch." He spits and cuts the bandana off. I take a deep breath before spitting in his face.

"You're a piece of shit." My words sound like venom as I talk through gritted teeth. He wipes his face off and laughs. His laughter distracts me enough for him to throw his fist at my jaw. My first instinct is to scream out but I hold it in as I taste blood in my mouth. He kneels back down in front of me and glares at me. He goes to open his mouth to say something so I spit all the blood that's pooling in my mouth at him. "Go to hell." I snap at him and he stands up.

"You're going to pay for that." That's all he says as he walks out the door. I think I'm safe but a few moments after he leaves, two girls, that are slightly bigger than me, walk in. "Don't kill her now. Just rough her up a little bit." I let out a laugh because that's all I can do right now.

"You're not getting away with this Ian!" I yell right before the door closes. I stare at the two bitches in front of me. "So, has he tried to stab you two as well or am I the only lucky one here?" They both look at each other and there heads drop. "Get this over with." I say to them. The one with the shorter hair looks up at me.

"We aren't going to hurt you." Her voice is hushed and she takes the few steps over to me. "We are tired of doing this to people." Her words confuse me.

"Wait, do you mean he does to other people too?" They both nod.

"He does it to girls who turn him down, guys who owe him shit, basically to anybody who does him wrong. It's fucking bullshit." The other girl talks and I stare at her, feeling like I know her from somewhere. It instantly clicks and I gasp.

"Maddie?" Tears pool in my eyes as I realize my best friend from High school is standing in front of me. She gives me a confused look before gasping herself.

"Oh my god." She basically jumps on me as she wraps her arms around me. "Faith. Holy fucking shit. I knew you looked familiar." I feel water dropping on my shoulder, indicating she's crying. "I'm going to ge-" She cut off by Ian's voice outside the door.

"I'm not hearing any screaming or anything! I said rough her up!" He yells and Maddie pulls away. She stares down at me with guilt in her eyes.

"It's alright." I whisper and look at the other girl. She has the same facial expression as Maddie. "You have to do it. I don't want him hurting you two, especially you Maddie." Tears drop from my eyes, involuntarily. Maddie wraps her arms back around me and whispers in my ear.

"I'm going to get you out of here." I nod and she pulls away. "I'm sorry." She whispers as the other girl punches me across my cheek. I groan loudly from the pain but don't have time to dwell too much as Maddie punches me in the stomach. The wind is knocked out of me and I gasp for air.

"Fuck." I grind my teeth together before another blow hits me in the jaw again. The taste of blood envelops my mouth but I'm quick to spit it out. I look up at them and laugh a little. "Jesus, you two can...fuck...hit hard." I know my teeth are covered in blood so my smile has to be creepy. Maddie looks away from me for a second, probably can't handle seeing her old best friend getting the shit beat out of her.

"Knock her out. I don't want to get my hands bloody right now." Ian's presence sends chills down my spine but I laugh it off.

"You have enough of my blood on your hands, fucker." I spit out more blood from my mouth seeing as I'm getting sick from the taste of it.

"Not enough but that will be taken care of later. Juliet, use the brass knuckles to knock her out. I have business to deal with." He talks so casually and walks out of the room. Maddie and Juliet turn back around to face me.

"Before you knock me out, I want to ask a favor from you two." They both nod and I continue. "He has my phone somewhere, if you truly want to get me out of here, get my phone and bring it to me. I know a lot of people now. They can get me out and get you two out." The pain in my jaw brings me to grind my teeth again and squeeze my eyes shut. "Do it."

*Austin's POV* The next day.

I can't focus on anything today but I have to go out and perform. I skipped out on the meet & greet because I was on the phone with so many different people today. The first person I called was my dad. He always knows how to keep me grounded. He said he was going to pray for a safe return and told me to keep my head up with positive thoughts. I told him I would try. I then called the police officer who came and got Faith's statement in the hospital. His words made me sick instantly. He told me that Ian escaped the hospital the day after Faith was released. They have police looking for him everywhere. I called a lot of different people to see if they could help me find Faith before something terrible happens to her.

Now, I'm standing backstage, getting ready to perform. I just hope I don't mess up any lyrics or break down.

"Zoe, keep my phone. If it rings or if a text is received, get my attention anyway you can. Throw a monster can at me or something." I instruct and she nods before I walk out onstage to screaming fans. I try not to look down to where Faith would be standing but it's so hard. I just want to look down there and see her with her camera but that's not happening today. My body feels numb as I jump around the stage like nothing is wrong. I don't even know how I'm remembering the words to our songs but the crowd is going crazy so I'm not fucking up yet. Every few minutes I look over to Zoe just to make sure I'm not missing phone calls or text messages.

"You guys are fucking amazing!" Aaron praises the crowd making them go even crazier. Any other day, I would be the one to talk to the crowd but I can't find the will to actually talk to anybody. "We are going to play 'Another You' off our new album 'Restoring Force'. If you know the words, sing with us!" Someone hands me a mic stand and I set it down right in the center of the stage. My hands start to feel clammy because I can't handle this song right now. I scan the crowd, taking in all of their faces but when I'm about to turn away, something catches my eye. It's a girl, who looks about Faith's age, and she's holding up a phone that looks like Faith's. Tears well up in my eyes because I would recognize it anywhere. The Teen Titans Go! sticker is a dead give away.

"Say anything! Say Anything!" As I'm screaming, I don't take my eyes off of that phone. My voice doesn't sound like my own because of the tears that are dropping down my face and because of the lump that's forming in my throat. The girl holding the phone stares at me and mouths something. I tilt my head a little, trying not to make it obvious that I'm trying to communicate with someone. She mouths the words again and I almost jump off the stage.

I know where Faith is.
