Someone cut the tape from RyanтАЩs arms and pushed a greasy cheeseburger and some fries into his
hands. When the man ripped the tape from RyanтАЩs mouth, it took a patch of hair from his neck, and Ryan
yelped.

тАЬThereтАЩs no easy way to do that,тАЭ the man said.

тАЬSorry.тАЭ

He led Ryan into another room and took off his blindfold.

The room was dark.

тАЬKeep walking,тАЭ the man said.

тАЬMattress is on the floor. And you two keep quiet.тАЭ

Ryan sat, letting his eyes adjust. A thin strip of light sneaked underneath the door. Heavy curtains

The other kidтАЩs voice startled him. He hadnтАЩt expected the voice of a girl.

Judd, Lionel, and Vicki hurried back toNorthwestCommunityHospitalthrough massive traffic jams.
Smoke still hung in the air. Emergency crews picked through the rubble looking for survivors. Though
there were scores of emergency vehicles and hundreds of people, an eerie silence hung over the search.

Judd explained their situation to a guard.
тАЬDid anyone inside survive?тАЭ Vicki said.

тАЬThey found a baby,тАЭ the guard said.

тАЬOnly others I know of were three women on their smoke break outside.

They were taken to Lutheran General.тАЭ

тАЬMaybe one of them saw Ryan,тАЭ Lionel said.

тАЬLetтАЩs go.тАЭ

Ryan jumped when he heard her.

тАЬOf all the indignities,тАЭ she said.

тАЬItтАЩs bad enough being kidnapped by a couple of bumpkins. Now I have to share a room.тАЭ
