Chapter 4 :)

"Where are you supposed to be?" Hamilton asked Amy, pulling the rental car to a stop outside an outdoor mall.

"I have no idea," Amy said, scanning the letter once again, and flipping it over to see if there were some directions on the back. "It just said to come here. No shop in particular. Just here."

"We'll I'm here," Amy continued, stepping out of the car, her black high heel clacking against the pavement. "So might as well have fun while we're here!" Amy turned to Dan. "Where do you want to go, Dweeb?"

Time passes

About 15 minutes later, Amy was carrying bags full of various objects Dan had found walking around the mall. He had just then declared that he was hungry, and proceeded to drag her to a hot dog stand. "Okay, I want a foot-long hot dog with ketchup, and mustard, and chili, and relish, and-" Amy tuned out her brother who was naming off every possible thing you could possibly have on a hot dog.

There's going to be more things on that hot dog than could feed a 3rd world country Amy thought. She scanned the stores quickly and her blood ran cold. A man in a long black cloak was hiding in an alleyway, motioning to get her attention. She at one noted the gun gripped tightly in his hand.

Amy spun around. "We'll be right back," She said quickly to the man who looked a little green in the face a the idea of anyone eating the hot dog. Amy grabbed Dan's arm and dragged him over to where Hamilton and Nellie was talking nearby. "Stay here, all of you," She said sternly, setting the bags down and looking at each of the pointedly before running off back in the direction of the alley.

"What's going on?" Nellie asked Dan, adjusting the grip she had on her bag.

"I dunno," Dan said, looking back in the direction of his sister. "I was getting a hot dog, then suddenly she just pulled me over here. Man she's weird."

Dan saw Amy turn into an alley. "C'mon," Hamilton said, standing up. "I have a bad feeling-" He was cut off by the sound of a gunshot.

"Amy!" Dan cried, running toward the alley. Hamilton ran after him, Nellie close behind, muttering to herself.

"I swear, these kids are going to give me a heart attack. I could have taken the job at the coffee shop but noooo, I wanted to be an au pair instead! That was not your finest hour, Nellie."

Dan stopped in his tracks at what greeted him around the corner. First he saw a person in a black cloak jump over the wall to the alley, then he looked down and saw his sister laying on the ground in a heap, one hand clutching her side. That wasn't the worst part, Dan saw, as Hamilton and Nellie ran up beside him. "Oh god," Nellie breathed as Hamilton ran up to investigate her. Dan saw liquid pool around Amy, staining her hair and clothes, and saw crimson seep through her fingers that were clutching her wound. Her hair covered her face, but he could tell she was unconscious.

Hamilton yanked up her shirt enough to see the wound. It was deep, and bleeding heavily. Dan ran up to Amy and moved her hair out of her face. He saw her closed eyes and white skin and felt his heart drop. "Is she okay?" He heard himself whisper.

"I don't know," Hamilton answered truthfully. "We need to get her back to our hotel. Now," He gently picked her up and carried her to their car, Nellie and Dan in tow, all three ignoring strange looks from people around them. Dan got in the back first, and Hamilton lay Amy down in back with him, resting Amy's head in his lap. Nellie sat up front in the passenger side door. Hamilton got in the car and started the ignition.

Dan had never gone so fast in his life.
