Chapter 18

''Y/n isn't in her room..'' Soap says in between breaths. ''Found this on her bedroom floor.. she would never leave it behind..''

''Willingly..'' The words escape my mouth as I connect the dots. I am breathless, my heart sinks as it starts pounding loudly in my chest.

I jolt forward, passing Soap as I feel myself running down the hallway.

My mind is racing, my heart beating louder with every passing second.

I barge through the opening of Y/n's bedroom door. My eyes rapidly shifting from one side to the other. I call out her name, moving around like an animal.

''Did you check the bathroom? Has anyone else seen her? The toilets, cafeteria? THE GARDEN?'' I yell, my panicked state driving me to search every inch of her room.

I grunt as I flip her bed. My breathing quickening as my shoulders rise and fall rapidly, my face becoming hot and flustered in anger.

''WHERE IS SHE SOAP!?''

Soap stands in the doorway, his expression worried but he tries his best to stay calm.
''No one has seen her. Everyone thought she was with you..''

I let out a deep frustrated grunt as I pace in y/n's room. I don't want to believe it, she can not be taken. Then my eyes fall on the open window.

I walk over to it, staring down as I see the bushes under it a bit squashed.

''Any chance she could have left by herself?'' I mutter, already knowing the answer. But still not wanting to believe the obvious at this point.

''Why would she? Did you guys argue or something?'' Soap asks carefully

I swallow, as the last words I said to Y/N ring through my head.

And no one would have died while trying to protect your stupid ass!

I can't even describe the regret I feel right now.

''That son of a bitch got to her.'' I mutter, seething with anger as I dig my fingernails into the window frame. My jaw is clenching so much it starts to hurt, but I don't care.

''Vince?'' Soap eyes widen as he walks over to me. ''You really think he would break in and take her like that? But why?''

''Who knows.. Revenge, maybe he wants to make her part of his sick plans..'' I growl, slamming my fists on the window frame.

''Bloody fucking hell, i never should have let her leave!''

I feel Soap placing a hand on my shoulder. ''LT.. We should go to Price, we gotta come up with a plan on how to get her back.''

I shake my head, feeling completely defeated.

''Soap, we spent two weeks trying to find one lead on Vince..without success. I doubt Price will be able to help us..''

Soap smiles softly. ''Come on, if anyone can find her it's you. We can't give up.''

I try to recollect myself, letting out a deep breath.
''Johnny, i swear to God i will turn every stone in this goddamn world until i find her..''

Soap chuckles softly. ''Atta boy.''

An hour later Soap and I are sitting in Price's office. Price is sitting behind his desk, Laswell next to him, busy typing on her laptop. The lights are dimmed, the smell of cigars still present. The only harsh light is coming from Laswell's laptop as it gives her face a light blue glow.

''So we are almost certain Vince took Y/N..'' Price says summarizing Soaps words. His tone low as he stands up from behind his desk, to pace a bit.

Soap nods. ''We need a plan, a strategy on how to get her back..''
