When she was fighting for her life against Chris, nothing fazed her-not even the thought of dying. But the moment she laid eyes on Lizzy, it was like all her blood turned to ice. She could stare down death, but watching her little sister get hurt? That was a whole different story.
Joshua tried to calm her again, "Don't be scared, Allie." Up on the rooftop, the helicopter had already landed. Lizzy was still in the grip of that rugged, burly guy.

But just as Chris stepped onto the chopper and Joshua was about to grab Lizzy, a bullet sliced through the air with a loud "thud," hitting the helicopter.
The sudden chaos threw off the whole plan. Joshua and the guy holding Lizzy both instinctively stepped back, widening the gap between them.
"Police! Nobody move!" Suddenly, several officers burst through the rooftop entrance. Chris's face darkened immediately.

Joshua was just as shocked. "I didn't." This was the last thing he wanted, but here they were...
"Joshua, since you broke the deal, don't blme," Chris said, slamming the helicopter door shut.
It all happened too fast for Joshua to do anything. The police fired at the helicopter, but their regular bullets were useless against Chris's specially armored ride. The chopper lifted off, and despite the police's continued shooting, it was no use.
"No! We can't let him get away, Lizzy's still with him!" Allison was frantic, seeing Chris still had Lizzy.
