"Run" screamed Austin
I was still shocked what was going on. Austin grabbed my hand and started running back to the palace. Then all the sudden someone grabbed my leg I tripped. I looked behind me it was a rebel. I screamed while kicking my legs. Finally I got loose but Austin was no where to be found. I started running again not sure what the right way was.
"Austin" I said
then all the sudden a rebel jumped out. Of the bushes with Austin right behind with a gag in his mouth. And three rebels came from behind me and grabbed me.
Austin tried to get out of the men's grip to help me but it was no use. But then all the sudden guards started running towards us. The guards started to shoot the rebels. They got Austin out of the rebels grip and he started to run towards me. The rebels started to carry me away he put a gag in my mouth and took his gun and hit me from the side of my head. I started seeing little tiny black marks until finally everything went black.

I woke up to a beeping sound. And looked around and noticed this wasn't my room. Then I tried getting up and got this massive pain in my head. All the sudden I noticed a figure sitting next to me it was Austin.
"Hey Austin" I said
"Sophie your up your alright you remember me" he says all at once
"Yah... What happened" I said a little confused
"Rebels... They tried to take you away but one of the guards shot one of the rebels in the leg and we were able to catch them" he said "I was so worried about you" he said so sad.
"Why how long was I out" I asked
"Three days" he said
What three days!?!
"What that can't be right" I said
"It is... I would know I've been here every single minute" he said letting out a hard laugh
Then I got a better look at Austin there's bags under his eyes and it looked like he hasn't eaten for days
"When was the last time you slept and eat Austin" I asked concerned
"I'm fine Sophie" he said shrugging it off.
"No you aren't Austin, why haven't you ate or slept" I asked
"Because of you" he said
"Austin you have to promise me no matter what happens to me you will never do that again" I said concerned
He tried to refuse but then stuck out his pinky "I promise" he says
I grin "now how about we have some delicious food of yours" I said grinning he smiles back at me
"Of course my love" he says smirking
