Chapter 14

Everyone was still examining the cabin all around, as to look for some sign that would show where Britney and James went, because there was signs that show they were there. For example, they found a picture of Starr and Cole, though in two, as like they had separated the two in real life.

"I can tell you, John," said Brody, "I don't think these two are going to stop until they get Starr and Cole all for themselves."

"We definitely better up the search for these two," said John.

"I agree," said Bo, who was nearby. "Also, I think it would be good to keep an eye out on Starr and her family."

"I'll get a couple officers assigned to that, but I'll make sure they stay undercover," said John. "If you don't mind though, Bo, I'm going to take some officers and look around more on the mountain."

"All right, just be careful though," said Bo. John nodded and took some officers and then headed out to continue the search.

Back at their house, Starr and Cole were sleeping peacefully when they were woken up by a knock on their bedroom door.

"Mommy, Daddy?" Hope was calling from the hallway.

Cole and Starr looked at each other, wondering why Hope was doing up. Cole got up, went to the door, and opened it. "Hope, it's late. What's wrong?" He asked that, noticing that she had tears coming

"I had a bad nightmare," said Hope, sniffing a little.

"Hey, come here," said Cole, opening his arms. Hope literally leapt into her father and hold tight. Cole then picked her up, after recovering from Hope's leap, and carried her to his and Starr's bed.

"What was the nightmare about, Hope?" asked Starr.

"It was you and daddy leaving each other, without you taking either me or my brother," Hope explained.

Starr and Cole looked at each other. Apparently, the situation with James and Britney was affecting Hope a lot more then they thought.

"Hope, listen to me," said Starr. "It was just a dream, okay. Your dad and I wouldn't leave you or your brother, and we especially don't want to leave each other."

"Your mom is right," said Cole. "We love you too much to just walk away from you like that. And there's no way I'm going to leave your mother." He looked at Starr as he said that, and Starr smiled.

"You sure?" asked Hope.

"Hey, we will never stop loving each other," Starr said, extending her arm as far as she could rub her daughter's shoulder. "Besides, your dad is my best friend."

"I thought Aunt Langston was your best friend?" asked Hope.

Starr and Cole laughed, and then Cole said, "Well, yeah, your mom and your Aunt Langston are best friends, but so are your mom and I. It's just a different kind of bond, like what your Aunt Langston and Uncle Markko have."

"The point is that we aren't going to leave you, or your little brother," said Starr. "We're stuck with you for a long time, until you guys decide to leave and make your own family."

"Hopefully though, that will be a long while into the future," said Cole. Starr and Hope laughed at that.

"Daddy, I'm only five," said Hope, giggling.

"I know," said Cole. All three of them just looked at each other for a minute or two.

"You feeling better, sweetie?" asked Starr.

"I am now," said Hope. Then she got on her dad and then gave him and her mom a real big hug, which they returned. She then said, "I'm going to go back to bed."

"You want me to tuck you in?" asked Cole.

"Its okay, Daddy. I'll be good," said Hope. She then left her parents room, closing the door. Cole and Starr just looked at each other.

"You know, I wouldn't be surprised if she turns out even better then us when she grows up," said Starr.

"I think she's already at that stage," said Cole. "She's definitely got both of our best traits."

"And what traits are you talking about?" Starr wondered.

"That we both show a lot of love, for the people that we really care about," said Cole.

Starr just looked at her husband and then grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled his head, until it leaned upon hers, and then said, "I couldn't have said it better myself." They both smiled and kissed with each other, with getting comfortable in the bed again.

Outside the door, Hope was listening in, hearing almost what her parents said about her, but she knew it was something good. Hope just smiled and walked quickly, but quietly off to her room.

Back at the cabin, Bo and Brody were finishing things up there. They collected what evidence they could find of Britney and James living there, as well as how the trap was set that injured one of the officers; he was at the hospital being checked.

"Everything seems to be in order here, Bo," said Brody.

"All right, let's get moving," said Bo. "I still got to check with John and see if he found anything."

"What are you people doing here?" said a voice. It was Britney's dad, who was followed by his wife. "I want all of you out now."

"Take it easy, Mr. Jennings. Let's step outside," said Bo.

"No, you are going to leave like my husband said," said Mrs. Jennings. "You have no right to be here."

"Actually yes we do," said Brody. "One of our officers was injured by your porch roof, because it was rigged like that. That's when this cabin became a crime scene."

"Oh really," said Mr. Jennings. "And how would you know that? The only thing we know is that our alarm was tripped, and that was just about an hour ago."

"Wait, so you didn't know your cabin was being used by two criminals?" asked Brody.

"What are you talking about?" asked Mrs. Jennings.

"He means exactly what he said," said Bo. "Two people were living in here for a little while, one of them being your daughter, Britney."

`"Our daughter has every right to be here," said Mr. Jennings.

"Not when she's harboring a criminal that she helped escape from a mental hospital," said Brody.

"What are you talking about?" Mr. Jennings said.

"You haven't been watching the news?" said Bo. "Your daughter is wanted for aiding and abetting in an escape of a dangerous person who was locked up from a mental hospital.

"And we have evidence to prove that," said Brody.

"I don't know what you people are playing at, but if you don't stop this now, we will be putting a lawsuit on your department," said Mrs. Jennings. She and her husband then left.

"Wow, and I thought Manning was delusional," said Brody.

"Yeah, I know. They're so blind about their daughter, they can't think straight," said Bo.

"Commissioner," said an officer, "we're all done here."

"All right," said Bo. "Let's head out of here. I still got to check on Richards." He was referring to the injured officer.

"No problem, Commissioner," said Brody.

Bo headed out of the cabin, and saw that John was coming back with the officers that he took to help search for James and Britney.

"I guess they got away?" asked Bo.

"Well, they seem that they wanted to go up even higher on the mountain, but they decided to change plans and head down, because they stole someone's vehicle and went down. I already got an APB out on it," said John.

"All right," said Bo. "Brody and I had to deal with Britney's parents a little while ago."

"I take it they're not too happy," said John,"

"You got it, but it was directed at us, because they don't think Britney could do something like this," said Bo.

"Well, they'll wake up sooner or later," said John. "In the meantime, we better hurry and find these two, and fast." Bo agreed, and they both headed to their vehicles.

A/N: Okay, the chapter wasn't so much about Sole and their family, but I had to include a little about what was going on with the search of trying to find Britney and James. Although I think the part about Starr and Cole comforting Hope was good. Stay tuned though.
