Chapter 7-Overboard

Chapter 7- Overboard

(Rosemary p.o.v)

After hearing what Sarah said, I instantly lost my cool. I wanted to get these chains off me, so I could smash her face in while she sat there crying and whimpering.

"Are you sure my dad is dead?", I asked.

She nodded and said.

"I saw his car go over the rail into the lake". She stated.

"Doesn't mean he's dead" I said, " my dad can swim".

I was interrupted by Sage after she cleared her throat.

"What do you mean by her dad was a bounty hunter as well?" Liyah asked.

I looked at Sarah waiting for her to answer.

She looked at me and quickly put her head back down.

"Well, are you going to answer the damn question?!" Sage shouted in frustration.

Even I was taken aback. Sarah started messing with her fingers and biting her lips.

"I don't know much", she paused. " but I overheard your dad talking on the phone about you and Sage" she said.

"And?", I said, sounding impatient.

She looked up at Sage.

"I heard your mom, telling him it was time to tell you and Rosemary that you two are sisters, and that you both were in danger", she paused. And scratched her head.

"Oh yeah" , said as she was remembering something.

"Something about a person from your biological family spotted you on the weekly high school sports paper," She stated.

Sage and I looked at each other in confusion.

"Biological family?" Sage looked so confused.

"You mean the person who is trying to harm us is from our real family?" I asked, instantly getting a headache while trying to process all this new information.

Sarah nodded her head and rubbed on her wrist. I can see that she had bruises on them.

"What does my mother, well my fake mother have to do with all this? Sage asked.

"All I know is that she was trying to protect you", she said.

"Yeah right, by packing up and vanishing without a trace", she scoffed.

Sarah bit her lip and rubbed her wrist again.

"What about my..." I was cut off by the sound of the door opening.

We all turned our heads looking at the door.

Three of the men we saw at the lake came in with more chains and iron collars.

I backed up and stumbled on the chain that was locked around my right ankle.

The man grabbed me and I used my left hand and slapped him across the face. He pushed me down and placed the collar around my neck.

I struggled to move my head and look in the direction where Sage was, and saw the other man pushing her down and placing the collar around her too.

"Now be a good girl, and don't move," the man said. He was big and buff with three scars across his eyebrow with a caramel skin tone.

I spat in his face since his face was close enough for it to reach. He looked at me, but didn't do anything, just wiped his face and reached for the chain holding my right waist and unlocked it.

He went to unlock the chain around my ankle, and immediately grabbed the chain around the collar holding my head back. He stood up and gestured his head telling me to get up and move.

The man next to Sage was doing the same thing, but I realized Liyah was still chained up, and Sarah was shivering in the corner and shaking, holding her head down.

"What about them?" I asked, as he pulled the chain and headed towards the door.

"They should be the least of your worries" he said and nodded to the other man, who was much smaller than him but seemed very fit.

The other man pulled the chain around Sage's neck and told her to move.

We looked back at Liyah, who was frightened and a defeated look on her face.

The smaller man opened the door pulling Sage out.

"Wait", Liyah yelled out. " Where my mother?" She asked, looking very concerned.

The big buff man looked at her and grinned. "We have no use for you, so don't worry we'll send you back to the place your mother is held at, " he said while having a wicked smile.

He started pulling me out of the room, and another stocky dark skinned man with long hair and his arms covered in tattoos, pulled a gun out of pocket.

"In heaven that is" he said, while walking out the room.

" bang bang" the stocky man shot Liyah and Sarah in the head.

"Throw them overboard", was the last thing I heard before passing out from shock.

(Sage's p.o.v)

After seeing Rosie pass out. I felt like my soul was leaving my body. The collar around my neck was a little heavy but I was managing to keep my nerves calm.

The man pulling Rosie, lifted up her unconscious body and tossed her across his shoulder.

"Please don't hurt us", I said, trying to plead with him.

He looked at me expressionless and said,

"Just be a good girl, you're not dying anytime soon."

I didn't know how to feel, whether I should be relieved or even more frightened.

They led us up some stairs, leading to another floor. The interior was nice, it was luxurious with white walls and gold stripes, and full of unique paintings.

"Are we really on a ship?"I asked him.

He nodded his head and opened the door, leading into a big suite. He walked toward the bed and laid Rosie down on it . The man who was pulling me led me to the other side of the bed, and unlocked the collar, taking the chain off, as the other man did the same to Rosie.

"Don't leave this room," the buff guy said. "Don't even attempt too, or I can't guarantee your safety from Brent", he stated.

I nodded my head and moved closer to Rosie, checking on her. The smaller man pulled a few keys out his pocket, handing it to the bigger guy. They walked out the suite, locking the door behind them.

I attempted to wake up Rosie, but she was out cold.

I decided to walk around the suite, trying to find a window. I looked and saw a big window on the left side of the room, and walked towards it.

I looked through the window, and saw it was pitch black outside but I heard the sound of water below us.

"Thump", I turned around after hearing a loud sound in the room. I walked back to the right side of the suite to make sure Rosie didn't fall off the bed or something.

I walked towards the bed, and saw that Rosie was still on it knocked out.

"Hmm, I wondered what that noise was" I thought to myself.

I turned around and proceeded to go to the bathroom and was grabbed from behind.

"Mmm, mmm" I mumbled trying to speak but their hand was covering my mouth and their grip around my body was too strong.

"Shhhhh" they whispered in my ear.

I stopped struggling after hearing a familiar voice.

The person let go of me and slowly turned me around. I stood there in dismay, I thought I was hallucinating.

"Mom", I managed to get the words out.
