SO SORRY THAT I HAVEN'T UPDATED IN SO LONG! School stuff has kept me away for so long and life has been hectic. Anyways, I'm back! I have so many new ideas for this story and its going to be awesome!
I'll be updating Jay soon too since all this new info has come out about the movie and I'm so pumped! Anyways, I'll shut up now and continue my rant at the bottom! Enjoy!
My first priority was George. I had to have him be safe first and then I would deal with the Black Hand. He was far more important to me than them. William knew that too.
We left the warehouse, after I knocked the guy out and tied him up. I couldn't have him running to them and telling that I was here and looking to save George first. I would not let them kill him.
He went back to the station house to explain the whole situation to the inspector before storming the cabin and finally putting an end to the Black Hand, forever. Then my life's work would be over and I could be happy with George and not have to worry about any other major threats.
I went to the hospital to kill the guard that was probably going to kill George. I remembered that there was only one guard that was walking away from George when I went to get information.
I wondered if the guard knew who I was and what I do when people I loved are threatened. Fighting in a dress wasn't easy but I always fought like this. Besides, I didn't need people telling me that looking like a man was bad. I didn't care anyways.
I opened the door and went past the front desk to where George was. I was in a slight panic mode but I was calm on the outside. I pulled the curtain back but he wasn't there. There was just blood on the sheets. No.
I saw a small, almost unnoticeable trail of blood that was leading from here to somewhere else. I knew that this was probably a trap but I didn't care. George wasn't here and I would find him.
I followed it around the hospital to a door that was slightly cracked. This door was probably always locked or closed so this made alarm bells go off in my head. I hesitated to open the door until I heard voices.
I readied a gun and went in. I had both hands on the gun as the voices grew louder.
"Oh relax. She's too smart to come here."
I had a mirror right by my side and I looked into it and saw that they were carrying something, a container of sorts. There was blood on the lid and a small hole on the side. That made me mad.
I turned the corner and shot them both in the head but using my telekinesis to keep the box from falling. I gently put the box on the ground and opened it. Empty. Damn. So where was he?
I looked into the goons minds.
"Ha! Can't believe that she wasn't here to watch this!"
"I know. She'll be mad and charge in guns blazing."
"Think we'll die?"
"Yep. Long live the Black Hand!"
Nothing. They didn't know where George was. I wanted, no, needed to find him. There wasn't a trace of where he went. I sighed. I put my guns away and decided that I would tell William. I couldn't trust anyone right now, except William.
I left the hospital to go to the station house. I was panicking. I went into his office.
"What is it?"
"George is gone."
{*}
"What do you mean gone?"
"GONE! Vanished, with only blood on the sheets."
He stood up.
"We'll find him."
"How? I got noting from the goons that were there?"
"If George found out and escaped, he'll contact us. I have faith in him."
"I don't-"
His phone rang and I looked at him. I didn't know who it was. It could either be the Black Hand or George. Either was bad. He slowly picked it up while meeting my gaze.
"Detective Murdoch."
It seemed like everything froze when he picked up that receiver. I was scared. I didn't like being scared. That made me make mistakes and mistakes couldn't be afforded at times like this.
I didn't realize that I was holding my breath until my lungs burned. He dropped his gaze which meant that this wasn't George.
"I'll put her on."
He handed me the receiver and I knew that he had George.
"Where is he you-"
"Careful. I might just kill your fiancé."
"You wouldn't want to piss me off."
"I already have."
"What do you want?"
"We both know that we want the other dead."
"That's easy to know."
"Midnight is nearing. I don't want any of my men dead and I'm sure that you don't want any of your friends dead. I want to see you, alone, at the train station at midnight and I'll hand George over to you."
"I'll just let you get away to terrorize another city. That's not going to happen."
"I knew that you would say that."
"I 'am never going to let you go."
"I know. My offer still stands April."
"You're going to kill me anyways."
"Not if you let me go."
"If you plan on leaving anyways, why tell me? I'm the one who wants you stopped. I'll just track you down and kill you then."
"No you won't."
"Enlighten me why I won't."
There was silence on the other end for a second.
"April?"
"George?"
"He's going to kill me."
"No he won't. That'll just make me mad. Where are you?"
"I can't tell you."
"That's okay. I'll find you."
"April, if I don't make it-"
"You listen to me. You are not going to die. I'm going to find you."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
The call ended and I handed the receiver back to William.
"Where is he?"
I knew where he was because he said that he couldn't tell me. It was easy.
"Sorry."
I activated the smoke in that station and quickly left before the gas could take effect over me. It was for everyone's safety. But I knew that he would figure it out eventually and interfere.
I sighed and looked at the sky with stars.
"So long."
I said to no one but to reassure myself. He was far more important than me, that's why I'm not letting him get away. He can kill me.
So AOS season two has SO MUCH FEELS! Ugh, it hurts my soul. I haven't been watching the new season of Murdoch so no spoilers please!
I hoped that you enjoyed this chapter and you'll be seeing much more of me. Hugs all around.
