Chapter 2

Mark P.O.V
Two weeks had pass since I heard of my brother. I live in Austin as my brother lives in Houston. I called him a lot; and he wouldn't answer.
I filed a police report. I had waited until someone answers me. The phone rings.
"Is this Mark Calaway?" asked the man.
"I'm Steve Austin and I have some news for ya" said Steve
"What is it?" I asked
"We found your brother…"
"Oh …"
"But he is dead"
I gasped and stared with wide eyes.
"What…?" I whispered
"We found him in the river; the medics said that he was shot twice…one on the back and one on the head"
"Oh fuck" I yelled "What else…?"
"We found something in his pocket…" said Steve "It has a necklace with a J on it"
"Okay…"
"And on the other it has an address" said Steve
"Okay tell me…" I said
He gave me the address.
"Steve…let me find the killer" I said "I'll move in next to them and find out who the killer is"
"Okay…but you are risking your life here"
"I don't care…" I said as I hanged up.
I'm heading to Houston. My best friend lives there, Glen. Basically we are like brothers. I love him like a brother.
I dialed his number.
"Hello"
"Hey Glen…Um…listen I got a favor to ask" I said
"Sure thing…"
"I will like to know if I can stay with you for a while?" I asked
"Why…"
"Because something had occurred…I can't tell you through the phone"
"Well…sure you can stay with me…"
"Great…Thank you"
"Okay…"
"I'll be there tonight and I'll explain everything to you when I get there"
"Sure thing…"
I hanged up and packed up. I got a few clothes. I just grabbed everything. I locked my house and headed to my truck.
I loaded up and started heading to Houston. It was a 6 hour drive but not as far. It depends how you drive.
I got a few snacks for the road. I put on some music and tears went down. I just lost a brother. I blinked a few times and kept on driving.
"I will avenge you" I said
It was getting dark now. I see lots of traffic and I headed down to a place with houses. I parked into Glens' highway.
I stretched a little and headed to his house. I knocked a few times. It took a good ten seconds until Glen answers.
"Oh…Glad you made it safely"
"Thanks…"
Glen helped me with the cases and brought them to the guest room. We then sat in the living room. Glen didn't say anything because he knows I'm angry.
"Marcus was killed" I said
Glen gasped and stared with shock.
"What…?"
"Someone shot him"
"Oh my…I heard someone got murder here but I never thought it would be Marcus"
"It was him" I said
"Do you know who…?"
"I'm going to the station and picking up a necklace that they found" I said "Tomorrow"
"Why the necklace…?"
"Because it has a J on it" I said
"So you're saying some who starts with a J killed him?"
"Yes…"
"Well…maybe but it will take a long time"
"I'm ready for it"
