Ok, so I was planning on making the 2nd Chapter home and posting it, but my computer home isn't working, so I'm posting this here, making the 2nd chapter as the third, and making the fourth chapter as a follow up to this chapter.

Tis chapter is really, really short.

LOL!!

I was quietly shocked. My phone number was always unlisted. Only my father and Juliet knew the number. And here, talking to me now was an unknown male.

"How did you get this number?" I spat into the phone. The man on the other end chuckled.

"I have a friend who has all the numbers." The sentence struck me as familiar. It was something Artemis Fowl said in The Lost Colony. Maybe they have the answers I need.

"What do want?" My voice sounded harsh, so I tried to sound kinder with the next phrase I uttered. "Do you know my father?" The man chuckled again.

"Yes, your father and I were close personal friends, at one point." He stated this matter of fact-ly.

"Uh-huh." I tried to avoid using syllables while talking, but, unlike my parents, I can not control when I utter the syllables.

"You don't believe me." The voice said. I wasn't angry, or annoyed, it was thoughtful, calculating.

I smiled. "No," I stated, "I don't believe you."


See, I told you I was short, but at least it's posted. ;P
