Chapter 10

As their car stopped near the small building, Cat felt like cursing the universe. She hated places like this, but people are sure creepy and most of the time she finds herself inside buildings like this. Dark, broken and straight out of a Japanese horror movie. The ground was mostly just dirt and mud spots from recent rain. Which was soon to come back. Looking up the sky was a dark grey, just about to welcome the night and some heavy storm.

- There is mud everywhere! – Cat complained pulling her feet away from all the mud spots.

- Not a good day to wear your new boots, huh? – Nat asked.

She had to give it up to him though. This place was miles away from civilization and surrounded by a small, but still generous piece of green. The trees were so dense together it made it more dark and creepy. Just what Cat needed.

- Chill out, will you? I'm getting this weird vibe from you and it's killing the mood. – Nat shoved her sisters' shoulder lightly while grabbing their flashlights.

- I'm perfectly fine. This place seems lovely. – Cat smiled sarcastically.

Nat ignored her sister and when in front of her passing, where there should be a door, a big piece of plastic. The plastic covering the small places where windows were supposed to be and the doors were going crazy with the wind.

- No door, no warrant kind of thing? – Cat asked.

- We're not here with the F.B.I. We are tourists that got a bit lost.

- A bit?

- Sure. Why not? – Nat had a creepy yet sweet smile when she stepped in and Cat just closed her eyes making her bump into her sisters' back.

- Why'd you stop?

Looking over Nat's shoulder, she saw cages. Stacks up and down all the way to the ceiling and back to the floor. They were old and probably didn't even hold anything, but it was still a scary sight. There was barely any light coming in and the place was a filth. Cat and Nat were expecting their allergies to hit at any time now.

- I hate this plan. – Cat whispered.

Nat took out her phone and took photos of the place as she walked around. Cat was right behind her not wanting to leave her side.

- If this weren't so tragic, I'd find this one of the coolest places EVER. – Nat said seriously.

- You got all the weird genes you know that?

- Weird is good, so shut up.

They waked into all of the rooms, but they were mostly empty or had a few broken chairs. If they hadn't seen the cages when they came in, they'd assume they were in the wrong place. But as Nat looked out the window to see if anyone was coming Cat took the chance to check out the last room.

- Natalie darling, I found something.

- Bastard. – Nat asked stepping into what seemed like a supply room. A very clean supply room.

- I guess we found something useful. This is sick – Cat looked freaked as she picked up a saw blade.

- Yeah. We should move and see what else we can find and get out. I don't care if everyone thinks he's in Lawrence, we still have to be careful.

- I thought we were here as tourists. – Cat said.

- And tourists get killed. These days specially good looking twins like ourselves. – Nat said dragging her sister out of the room.

Coming to find a door that had stairs leading to the basement Cat took a step back.

- I can stay on the lookout if you want.

- Since we don't have much time I'll go down there. You can take the stairs on the main entrance to the second floor and see what you find. We'll meet back front in 30.

Cat looked nervous, but like always she sucked it up and did the job and she did it well. Nat felt sort of responsible for making her sister so nervous around places like this. Not that it isn't normal. Even she felt a little off and scared, but she enjoyed the feeling. Liked feeling scared sometimes, but Cat surely hated the feeling. And that may have started when they were growing up, 'cause Nat would make her sister watch all the scary movies with her. Along the way Nat may have scared her for life.

- Back in 30 then. Front door. Keep your phone on you at all times and call me if you find anything. – Nat said and Cat smiled weakly.

- Don't call me to come get you, ok? Don't worry about me. The basement is always the death trap. I will leave you and drive back home to a cozy bed, a bottle of wine and Doctor Who.

- I bet you will. – Nat smiled.

They went their different ways.

Nat took one step down at a time pointing her flashlight at the end and every two steps she looked back to see if the door was still open.

Reaching the bottom of the stairs made Nat gag. The smell was awful. There were two mattresses at opposite ends of the room with chains next to them hooked to the wall. The sheets were a mess of dirt and dry blood. The chains weren't nearly long enough for both sides to reach each other. Torture for one is physical, while the other is emotional.

This is no dought where the twins were kept. She felt her heart stop cold as she looked around. They were here being tortured and the guy was still out there. This was one of those times the job got to be overwhelming.

- Fucking bastard. – she whispered to herself.

Taking her camera she snapped some shots of the room and as she was turning to leave she sent a message to Cat.

"Found where he kept the twins. What about you?"

Cat reached the second floor and looked around. Rooms with big bathtubs, others with cages in much better condition and some with a lot of chains and some equipment she could only imagine were for torture. She took a few pictures with her phone and left to the rest of the rooms. She came close to the end of the hallway when she found a room that was locked.

- You probably had a chance if it were Nat, but I'm a pro at this, bro. – Cat talked to herself. It helped.

She got the door open in just a few minutes. Looking at her watch she still had ten minutes before she had to go after Nat.

Walking into the room it was filled with a board with photos of all the twins. Even photos from when they died. He tagged everything. The torture, their wounds, their responses. She took pushed on the mouse of the computer to see some files open and she took her pen drive to get some of the things on it since she didn't have time now.

When her phone bipped with a message from Nat, Cat almost peed herself as she let out a high pitched scream.

- Bitch! – Cat said looking at her phone.

"Found where he kept the twins. What about you?"

She waited for the files to copy and texted back.

"Not sure yet. Meet me up here. Room 1303."

She took out her pen drive and went to look through some papers. Not taking much time to analyze it herself she just took picture of everything. Until she found a list of names. That one she pushed into her bag. List of victims she was not leaving it behind.

Next on her list she moved to a video camera, she just started to go through the footage when Nat came rushing in. They silently watched the video of the last twins being tortured.

- Cat, honey, we have to go. The storm started and we can't be stuck here.

- I know.

Then a bright light came closer to the building making Nat and Cat drop to the floor and crawl towards the window.

- What the hell, dude! He was supposed to be in god forsaken Lawrence. – Cat half screamed, half whispered to Nat.

- We're leaving from the back. The fire escape is next to the car. Get that camera. I don't give a crap about warrant right now, so just take it. – Nat said looking back at her sister who was typing something fast on the computer and pulling out her pen drive once again.

- Got the computer codes.

- How the…

- I'm not Garcia genious, but I'm somewhere close. – Cat said pulling her sister by the arm towards the door and onto the room leading to the fire escape exit.

They ran as fast as they could since they weren't going to be heard. The storm was going crazy outside. They were soaking wet when they reached the bottom of the stairs. Nat pulled out the car keys and they jumped into the car. No lights she turned on the soft engine and pulled onto the woods path.

- Did everything survive the waterfall?

- They survived the rain. My bag is fantastic. – Cat said and as soon as they hit the civilization, they laughed nervous as hell.

- So glad we left out car on the far left side.

- There was a reason for that. – Nat said out of breath.

- Right. I think we're okay for now. – Cat said smiling sadly.

- We're okay. Everything is fine. He didn't see us. – it sounded more like Nat wanted to reassure herself, but Cat was accepting anything.

- He'll know someone was there.

- Wait. What? Why? We were like god damn ninjas. – Nat laughed still nervous – Ninjas who almost pissed themselves, but still ninjas.

Cat loved her sisters' sense of humor, specially when she was nervous like this.

- The office we were in, well, I picked the lock. He'll know. Plus, we took the camera and I got this. – Cat pulled out the paper full of names. – I think this is a target list, experiment list or whatever.

Nat went from looking at the road with the storm making it pretty hard and looking at the paper and so on.

- How the hell does someone know that many twins?! Is there a club we didn't know about?

Cat folded the paper back and put it safely in her bag.

- I hope we did the right thing.

- We did. We'll be okay. We're going to head over to Garcia's place now and give her this camera, the codes and whatever we need. Then we're gonna drink and call Uncle Rossi.

Cat took her sisters hand. Both freezing and shaking.

- Okay. Now keep your eyes on the road. I'm calling Queen G.

HEEEY PRETTY PEOPLE! I know I'm still using Uncle Rossi, just hang on a little longer. Sorry about the mess and most of all sorry I take so long to update. It means a lot to me that there are people taking the time to read, so thank you. And I know that maybe focusing on the girls may be getting pretty annoying since most of you are here for Reid and Morgan, but I promise they'll be back soon. I don't even know what to say. Except for thank you for everything… Especially for the patience everyone has had. Sorry for my English once again. Xx Reviews are welcome, so say whatever you want and even hate on me if you must.
