Chapter 53: A New Partner III

Harry's PoV:

The door finally busts open. I can't believe that actually worked! Though, as the door opens, the wooden bedpost snaps. I'm finally back up in the smoke-scented house. I have to call the McCallisters to inform them what happened. Though, if I'm hoping to get the kid back, I should have Mr. McCallister trust in me. I don't know how to get a hold of just him, though... If I called the house, I'd possibly get an answer from that friend-murdering bitch, Kate. I wish I knew the cellphone number of Peter... Wait a minute! If I can't find his number in the phone book, then I'll get the operator to find it for me! Kate can't know about her husband helping me. As revenge for her killing my friend, she's getting her kid back. And that certainly can't happen, when the kid's dead, now, can it?

I try to find Al's phone and phone book. I search through the yellow pages, seeing if I can find it. Unfortunately, this book is only for New York State. "Dammit!" I curse. Though, I haven't given up hope yet! I look up the number to reach an operator, which I finally find. I dial the number, and I'm asked what number I need. I state that I need the cellphone number of Peter McCallister from Chicago, Illinois. I'm given the number, which I say thank you to the operator. I hang up the phone and say to myself, "Alright. Let's see how this goes..."

Kevin's PoV:

"Ethan, I'd like you to meet my new son, Kevin," I want to vomit, when he says that.

"Dad! You can't just kidnap a person and call them your kid!"

"You wanna bet?"

"This happened with that boy you found in New York City! You can't do this again with this kid!" What boy from New York City?

"Well, excuse me for not forgiving you for growing up! Your Mother took you away from me, and I couldn't see you!"

"Jee, I wonder why..."

"Enough out of you. Now, are you going to help me, or not?"

"Yeah, yeah..." I have the same vibe from him as I got from Marv. I try to smile, but the rag is pretty much preventing that from happening.

"Alright. Take us back to your place. You'll help me with him, right?"

"YES, Dad..."

"You helped me kill Joshua Stayner; I could get you to help kill this one, too,"

"Dad!"

"What? Look, I like this kid, OK? I don't want him to be killed, like Josh..." Joshua Stayner... Now that I think about it, I heard about that boy being abducted, then a week later, being murdered... Now, I really feel like I'll puke... "I really needed your help with Josh, because I couldn't do it myself," Is Al a wannabe killer, but doesn't have the nerve?

"Look, I don't wanna have to go through that again, OK?"

"Well, we won't have to, if he behaves himself," Al looks down at me with his blistering eyes again. "Right, little guy?" I can't help but look at him, wide-eyed. What the hell did Josh do that was so bad? Maybe he did what I did, but Al didn't like him as much as he likes me... I'm not sure whether to be terrified or thankful.

"Dad, Josh managed to try and escape once, and you got pissed at him. How many times has this one tried?"

"More than Josh, that's for sure. Though, I like this one. I want to keep him,"

"Dad..."

"Nevermind, son. Just keep driving. I have a bit of a surprise for him, once we get to your house..." Al's eyes beat down at me, and I know that this is going to be bad...

To be Continued...

...

A/N: Thanks! Well, that was quite interesting, wasn't it? Harry's finally out of the basement, and he's going to try to reach Peter! How will that conversation go? What do you people think about this kid, Joshua, that was apparently murdered by Al and Ethan? What do you think of Ethan's character? What will he be like in the future? Well, you'll just have to see! Until then, ciao! :D
