(Will's Pov)

We were driving around looking for Allie when Sara's phone started ringing.  She looked at her phone and told me it was Lisa her assistant.  I nodded and she answered the phone.  I looked at her ever once in a while and she was still talking on the phone then her eyes went wide.  Her hands started shaking and I grabbed her free hand and gently squeezed it.  She pulled the phone away from her ear and she hung up the phone.  She threw the phone in the backseat and screamed.

"What's the matter?"  I asked

"Drive to the Conowingo dam."  She said

I nodded. 

"Is that where Allie is?"  I asked

She looked at me and nodded.

"We better hurry."  She said

I stepped on the gas and went faster.  As I was driving Sara was telling me everything that she knew about what happen and was going on.  We got to the dam and we got out of the van. What I saw broke my heart Allie was sitting on the rocks next to the flood gates but she was tied up.  I far as I could tell she was.  I looked over at Sara and she had her hand up to her mouth.  I ran over to her and wrapped her in my arms.  I hugged her then I kissed her.

"Let's go get her."  I said

Sara nodded and pulled out her phone.

"What are you doing?"  I asked her

"Calling the cops."  She said

I nodded.  She told them everything then she hung up her phone.  I grabbed her hand and we started to ran over to the dam when Adam yelled my name. I turned around and saw the guys running over to us.

"How did you know where to find us?"  I asked

"We been following you."  Adam said

I nodded.

"We want to help."  Mike said

I looked at Sara and she nodded.

"Okay,here is what we do."  I said

I told them what to do and they spit up.  I grabbed Sara's hand and we ran over to the dam.  I turned Sara so she faced me.

"You go and get Allie then you run.  Don't look back and keep running don't stop for anything."  I told her.

If there was any chance of saving Allie then I was going to take that chance.  I looked at Sara who had tears in her eyes.  I wiped them away and kissed her.  She kissed back and we kissed for awhile then I pulled away.

"Will,I.."  She started to say but I interrupted her.

"I love you too.  Now go and get Allie."  I said

She nodded.  She kissed me once more then started walking down the stairs.  I turned my head and saw Mike standing there.  I ran over to him and started beating the hell out of him.

(Sara's Pov)

I got half way down the stairs when someone grabbed me by my hair and pulled me back.  They started to pulled me back up the stairs by my hair and I struggled.  I try scratching their hand with my nails but it didn't work.

"Let me go!"  I yelled.

I heard a girl laugh and I automatically knew who it was.  It was Katie.

"No, in about 5 minutes the flood gates will open and your daughter will drown."  She said

I don't know how I did it but I got free.  I turned around and started hitting her.  I kept on hitting her then I heard the alarm signaling that the flood gates were opening.  Katie laughed and I punch her.  She fell and was unconscious.  I smiled.

"Leave my family alone."  I said

I turned around and ran down the stairs.  I ran over the rocks to were Allie was.  She was under the water.  I drove under the water and saw her.  I grabbed her and I swim back up to shore.  I got on the rocks and carried Allie further up so that the water couldn't reach us.  I looked at her and she was tried up.  She had tape across her eyes and mouth.  I laid her down and she started screaming through the tape.

"Sh, It's okay.  It's me mommy."  I said soothly.

I took the tape off and started untying her.

"Mommy?"  She asked

"Yes baby. It's me."

I finished untying her then I took the tape off her eyes.  She blinked a few time then she jumped on me.  She hugged me tightly.

"I missed you mommy."  She said

I rubbed her back and hugged her back.  I kissed her forehead.

"I missed you too sweetie."

I got up and placed her on my hip. I walked back up the stairs and stepped over Katie.  I walked on the dam and looked over at Will who was finishing off Mike. He saw me and smiled.  I heard a gun shot then Will went down and then the dam collapsed.  Some of the dam landing on Will.

"Will!!!"  I screamed out.

Mike couldn't move cause a large piece of the dam was on his leg.  He smiled at me.  I felt a hand on my arm and it was pulling me away.  I turned around and saw Adam was pulling me over to the car.  I let him take me over to the ambulance that was standing by.  I felt the tears coming down my face.  William was dead and I didn't save him.  The paramedic wrapped me and Allie in a blanket.  They checked us over and said that we were fine.  I rubbed Allie's back and watched as the police took Mike and Katie away.  They put them in the back of their car and drove off.  A police man walked over to me.

"Hi Mrs.Beckett,can you tell me what happen?"

I told him everything and he wrote it down.

"You have to save my husband."  I said with tears going down my face.

"Ma'am we're moving the pieces right now." He said

I nodded.  He walked away.  I looked at the dam and didn't understand how it fell apart.  I watched as they lifted pieces of the rumble and threw it to the side.  Tears were streaming down my face and I held Allie tighter to me. 

"Can they leave?"  I heard someone asked

"Yes, they can."

I just kept watching the firefighters moving pieces of the dam and throwing them aside.  I felt a hand on my arm.

"Come on Sara."  Adam said

I shook my head no.  I was going to stay and see if they got Will out.  I wasn't ready to leave yet.  I wanted to stay until they got him out.

"Come on.  They will call you when they get William and besides you and Allie will freeze."  Adam said

I didn't realized until now that Adam was right.  I was shriving and Allie was asleep cause she was so cold.  Adam put his hand on my arm and started pulling me to the van.  I didn't fight him.  I just let him led me to the van.  I climbed inside and sat down in the backseat.  I held Allie not caring that she was supposed to be in a car seat.  I let the tears come down not bothering to wiped them away.

(Adam's Pov)

I started the van and started driving back to the hotel.  I looked in the rear view mirror to see Sara was holding Allie tightly against her and crying.  I couldn't even imagine what she was going through.  She lost the only person she ever loved.  Her and Will have been together for a long time and they were made for each other.  I watched as she started to fall asleep.  I looked at the clock and it was 8 o'clock at night.  Sara has been through a lot and I was glad that she was getting some sleep.

"I can't believe what happen."  Mike said

"Me either."  I said

"So what do we do now?"  Andy asked

"I don't know but we need to cancel the tour."  I said

"Already done."  Michael said

I nodded.  I pulled up at the hotel and we all got out of the van.  I walked over to the door.

"Hand me Allie."  I said

Mike handed Allie to me while he took Sara.  We walked into the hotel and went straight to Sara's room.  Mike handed me the keycard and I slide it in the slot.  I opened the door and walked inside.  I walked to the bedroom and sat Allie down on the bed.  I got her pajamas out of her bag.  I took her wet clothes off and I dried her off a bit then I put her pajamas on.  I threw her wet clothes on the floor and I picked her up.  I laid her down on the bed and tucked her in.

"Mommy."  She said tiredly.

"No,it's Adam."  I said

"Mommy."

She kept saying mommy so I picked her up and took her to the other bed where Sara was sleeping.  I laid Allie down next to her and tucked her in.

"Mr.Duckie."  She said

"Right here." Mike said placing it next to her.

I was glad that we had Allie with us and that she was safe and sound.  We walked out of the room quietly and I shut the door.

"Let's stay here for tonight then we go home in the morning."  Andy said

I turned around and looked at him.

"I agree but we have to convince Sara to go home through."  I said

Everyone nodded.

"Let's get our stuff."  Michael said

We all nodded.  We all left and got our stuff then came back to Sara's room.  We all put our stuff on the floor and we all found a place to sleep.  I got my sleeping bag and laid it on the floor.  I climbed inside and fell asleep.
