104 55: Feuds And NEWS

Back at the hospital, Rex and the dogs were waiting outside the room to hear from the doctors about Gigi. As he paced the floor back and forth, John walked up to him.

"Rex." Said John.

"John. What are you doing here?" Said Rex.

"The police just got the dispatch from my 911 call. How's Gigi?" John asked.

"I don't know, they won't tell me anything." Said Rex.

"Alright, i'll see what i can do. Hey, when we found Gigi, she was trapped in the basement of the old spooky house. Any idea how she got stuck down there?" John asked.

"The only person who could tell you that are the people who trapped her down there in the first place: The people who have been stealing Dalmatian puppies all over the state of Texas. That's who stole Gigi's Dalmatians and kidnapped Jason...and those are the same people who trapped Gigi in the basement of that old house. And i swear...they better hope that the police find them before i do...because i'm gonna tear the people appart who did this to my friend." Said Rex.

"Okay, thanks. I'll be in touch. Hang in there." Said John before walking off.

Sherleen and Henry arrived on the scene just as John was leaving.

"What is John doing here?" Sherleen asked.

"Where's Gigi? Is she okay? What happened?" Henry asked.

"We're not sure yet. I'll tell you everything as soon as they tell me." As Rex was explaining everything, the door behind him opened up and Henry and Sherleen saw the doctors operating on Gigi, who was lying unconscious on a gurny, with a breathing tube in her mouth.

"GIGI!" Sherleen screamed as charged for the room, only to be held back by Rex and Henry as one of the nurses closed the door. "GIGI! GIGI! GIGI!"

"Come on, you guys, let's just sit over hear." Said Rex as he and the dogs lead Sherleen and Henry over to some chairs.

"We don't wanna sit down! What's wrong with Gigi? Is she okay?" Henry asked.

"Hey, you're daughter is gonna be fine, okay? She just got a little hurt." Said Rex.

"Hurt how?" Sherleen asked.

"It looks like...Carbon Monoxide poisoning." Rex answered.

"Oh no." Said Sherleen.

"That's bad." Henry added.

"Hey, this is Gigi we're talking about, okay? There's nothing she can't beat." Said Rex.

"How did this happen?" Sherleen asked.

"Bo and John and the police are trying to figure that out right now. It's gonna be okay, alright?" Said Rex.

"That's not answering her question! What happened, Rex?! What did you do to Gigi? What did you do to our daughter?!" Said Henry. He had never like Rex, even when Rex was only 5 years old, and he hated that Gigi had hung around him when they were both little. And the fact that they grew up together and went to the same school didn't help none either. Given all the mischift that Rex had gotton into, while growing up as a kid, Henry wouldn't put it past the young man if he had done something to Gigi.

"Alright! You wanna know what happened? Fine, i'll tell you!" Said Rex. "Bo, John and i followed the dogs and they lead us to the old, condemned spooky house, where we saw that Gigi's Station Wagon was parked. The dogs lead me inside the house, and a chair was pushed up against the basement door. I removed the chair and went down into the basement. That's where i found your daughter. She was unconscious...there was a generator...running. I think it was leaking Carbon Monoxide. And that was when the dogs and i had brought her here to the hospital."

"Oh my goodness. How did all this happen?" Sherleen asked.

"The 104 Dalmatian incident." Said Rex.

"The state wide incident involving 104 percent of the state of Texas' Dalmatian population? What about it?" Sherleen asked.

"I have rason to believe that the people who stole those Dalmatians, as well as Gigi's, and kidnapped her son...are the same ones who did this to Gigi." Said Rex. "They, meant it for her."

"Rex." Said Sherleen.

"The people who stole all of those Dalmatian puppies...they were waiting for Gigi. They must have lured her to that house some how. She went inside and they locked her inside the basement and left her there so that they could steal the puppies. They thought that the puppies were home alone with Viki. But they weren't. Jason was there because i told him that Stacy and i and our baby were moving to Paris, France, and now they have him and the puppies and their parents too. Those jerks were probably planning to steal the puppies for quite some time, but they had to get Gigi out of the way. Don't you get it? They tried to kill Gigi!" Said Rex.

"Look, we're not gonna worry about the people who did this right now." Said Sherleen.

"But look at what happened to Gigi and Jason because of me!" Said Rex.

"Hey, hey, hey," Sherleen began. "This is not your fault. Do you understand me?"

"Yes, it is!" Said Henry.

"Henry." Said Sherleen.

"No, it's true, those people would have never gone after Jason if it wasn't for him!" Said Henry.

"This isn't going to help." Said Sherleen before looking at Rex. "Listen, you don't go blamming yourself for something someone else did."

"No, let him blame himself! It's his fault Gigi's here in the first place!" Said Henry.

"Please don't say that, Henry." Sherleen said.

"Why not? It's true. Although, i can't completely fault you, Rex. You were just following orders from your loving bride to be." Said Henry.

"Don't even go there." Said Sherleen.

"Why not go there? It's the truth. You said it yourself, Rex. Stacy was the one who put you up to telling Jason that you and her and the baby were moving to Paris, France. If she hadn't done that, Jason wouldn't have run off the way he did and he wouldn't have been at home for those people to snatch him, along with the puppies." Said Henry.

"Okay, okay, this is what we're gonna do. Um...the therapists here have late hours, right?" Said Rex.

"Yeah." Said Henry.

"Okay, good. Your wife is gonna take you up stairs to talk with a doctor." Said Rex.

"You're sending us away?" Henry asked.

"No, i just think that you both need to talk with somebody who can calm you down. We need to be cool for Gigi." Said Rex.

"No! What if something happens?" Henry said.

"Nothing is gonna happen to her while you're both gone, i promise. They're not even gonna let us in to see her anyway. But when they do...we need to be ready." Said Rex.

"Fine!" Said Henry before walking away from Rex.

Sherleen looked at Rex. "Don't worry, i'll keep an eye on him."

"Thanks." Said Rex.

"We're here for you, honey. You remember that." Said Sherleen. She then went over to Henry and the two of them left to go meet with a therapist.

Rex and the dogs were then drawn to a black flat screen T.V., which was on the NEWS channel with a female news reporter standing outside the spooky house while police searched it.

PARIS, TEXAS NEWS

APRIL 4'th, (2020)

"Hi, this is Gale Winters. Earlier today the Miller family home was broken into and robbed of it's four Dalmatian puppies, along with the kidnapping of the youngest member of the family, 10 year old Jason Miller. The Paris, Texas animal shelter also reported that the Miller family's two adult Dalmatians missing. Other Dalmatian puppies were also reported missing in every pet store, pound and animal shelter. Reports of other Dalmatians missing have been made as well. All over the state of Texas, in every city: Such as Austin, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, El Paso, Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, Fort Worth, Amarillo, Corpus Cheisti, Laredo, Galveston, Arlington, Waco, Plano, Lubbock, Brownsville, Midland, College Station, Abilene, Beamount, Odessa, San Angelo, Wichita Falls, Irving, Braunfels, McAllen, Texas City, Texarkana, Katy, Denton, Tyler, Grand Prairie, Round Rock, Nacogdoches, San Marcos, Frisco, Suger Land, Fredericksburg, Victoria, Garland, Humble, Killeen, McKinney, Longview, Port Authur, Carrollton, Pasadena, Grapevine, Del Rio and Richardson. The entire states police systems were shocked when they learned just how many Dalmatians had disappeared. As of today, the state of Texas is missing 104 percent of it's Dalmatian population, along with a the 10 year old Miller boy. I wish i could say that this is the end of this horrible nightmare, but it isn't. Shortly after the disappearances of the Miller family Dalmatians and 10 year old Jason Miller, the mother of that boy, and the owner of those Dalmatians, Gigi Miller, was found unconscious in the basement of this abandoned home. Authorities are not sure what miss Miller was doing here in the first place, but they do believe that faul play was involved and that it is linked to the Miller family's home invasion and robbery/kidnapping. Miss Miller was later found and rescued by P.I. Rex Bryson, Comissioner Bo Colemen and John Oregen and was taken to the hospital after being exposed to an active generator in the basement that was leaking Carbon Monoxide. The people behind this state wide incident have yet to be found. It's as if the Devil himself is behind this whole thing. Whoever did this will be brought to justice. This is Gale Winters signing off from the Paris, Texas NEWS. Thanks for watching."
