The Visions Left Inside Me Are Slowly Fading

**Scotts POV**

It had been about 12 hours since I’d contacted Savannah; the bitch should have gotten back to me already. They were supposed to figure out their game and call me to make the trade within a few hours, “granted, I did give them until tomorrow night,” I growled to myself under my breath.

The kids were playing in the other room, I could hear the giggles and everything. All I needed was Ember and her child and we’d be the best parents ever; of course, I’d be needing to beat the slut’s ass into submission again. Those assholes had taught her that she deserved better than me, but I was the only one who she deserved. I was the best person alive for her.

I twisted the pocket knife along the palm of my hand, this thing was dull as fuck but it’d be able to protect me if I needed to stab someone. The phone started to ring and I immediately answered seeing Savannah’s number, “Yes?”

“We want to make a trade, but we need to know where you are,” she said calmly.

I raised an eyebrow, “Just like that you realized that she’s not worth your children growing up without you?”

“Just tell me where you are. I want to make the trade tonight,” she replied with a growl.

“Excuse me, did you just get an attitude? Oh dear,” I tsked her.

She sighed out loud, “Austin, or whoever you are. All I want is my Landon back, we all just want our children back.”

“So matt chose his children over his slut of a sister eh?” I chuckled, “about time.”

Savannah replied calmly, “Yes he did. We will do anything to get our children back.”

“Fine. You have until midnight,” I replied and gave her the address before hanging up the phone. I went and checked on the children, and started getting everything reset for Ember and Damon. “Austin?” Landon asked me tiredly.

“Yeah buddy?” I asked softly.

“When do I get to see mommy again?” He rubbed his eyes.

“Soon bub, I promise,” I picked him up and ruffled his hair before putting him to bed and calling Lyric in and tucking him in too. He’d been fairly quiet the last few days; I couldn’t tell if he was homesick or was just a shy kid. It didn’t matter, soon he’d be back home with Tennessee and I’d have Ember and Damon.

**Ember’s POV**

“What’d he say?” I asked as Savannah hung up the phone.

“We have until Midnight,” she groaned inwardly and rubbed her temples.

“That’s 24 hours less than what he promised,” Matt observed concerned.

“He did it so we don’t have any time to negotiate the terms,” I whispered softly and looked at Brian.

He pulled me into him, “We need to work out a plan and fast. We have an hour and a half and it takes 20 minutes to get there.”

“I have a plan, Simone, Ember, Tennessee and Savannah stay here and we go face him like the dirty rotten scoundrel he is,” Matt spoke first, balling his fist.

“I’m not staying behind,” Savannah told him immediately.

“And I have to go because if he doesn’t see me, he’ll suspect something is off,” I said calmly, coming to terms with my fate.

“I want to go but I don’t want to be in your way,” Simone said softly taking Matt’s arm.

“I want you here safe, Simmy. I’ll bring our babies home to you, but I need you safe,” Matt explained to her softly.

Everyone looked at Tennessee, “If Zacky is going I’ll agree to stay, I know he’ll safe Lyric. No matter what, you’ll save him right?” She looked at Zee.

He nodded and kissed her forehead, “Of course. I won’t let anything happen to him or Landon,” he replied then looked at Savannah.

“I’m going Zacky. You cannot stop me. I lost Jimmy,” Savannah said getting in everyone’s face. “I will NOT lose my son too. I will NOT lose the last piece of Jimmy that I have.”

I moved over and hugged her tightly, “I understand.” I looked at the guys, “she’s coming. None of you are going to stop her.”

Brian opened his mouth to object and I shook my head fiercely at him, “She needs to be there. It’s a trade, he has been in contact with her. If she doesn’t go he will NOT work with any of us.”

Finally the guys had agreed and we worked out a plan. Damon was not going on this outing, he was going to stay with Simone and Tennessee. Savannah and I were going to see Scott; Johnny was going to be with us, to oversee the “transaction”. While Matt, Zacky, and Brian snuck in and grabbed the kids.

We didn’t know if it’d work, we didn’t even know if there’d be casualties. One thing we did know is that we were coming home with the kids; if it was the last thing we did.
