Chapter 6

"Have you already found him?", Finn asked Quinn, Santana and Brittany. The three mermaids shook their heads. "Sorry, Finn, but he just disappeared. We don't know where else to search for him", Quinn said. Finn and the three girls were currently at the moonpool with the girls in the water and Finn sitting on the shore, coordinating the search parties and waiting in case his brother would swim to the moonpool and needed help. "Please continue searching, okay?", Finn pleaded. The girls nodded and dove back into the water. "Hey Frankenteen. I'm sorry about Lady Lips, but we will find him, don't worry", Santana winked before she dove in, her orange tailfin was splashing on the surface. Finn smiled faintly. In times like these, he could even count on Santana. Although the NDs didn't share that secret that long, they already grew closer to each other. "Finn? Are you okay?" Rachel just surfaced,flicking her soft violet tail. Finn sighed deeply. " After that accident, I promised Burt to keep an eye on Kurt and to bring him back home, safe and sound. I already broke that promise. I'm a horrible big brother", Finn said and desperately ruffled his hair. Rachel laughed. "You are only older by a few months or something. Anyway, this whole thing is not your fault, neither was the accident and Mr. Hummel knew that. Nobody saw this coming, not even Blaine. Kurt will be fine, no matter what happened to him, you know how strong he can be. But you need to rest, you haven't been sleeping enough lately", Rachel said softly. "How the hell can I sleep? Kurt is god knows where and maybe needs help!", Finn said exasperatedly. " Kurt wouldn't want that you suffer like that. Come on, Finn, only some hours of sleep, and then you can return early in the morning. Blaine is just as stubborn as you, but Tina and Sam try to get him into bed too." Again, Finn sighed loudly. He knew how stubborn his girlfriend could be. "Okay, I'm coming. You can swim ahead, I will be in the hotel room in some minutes", he promised. Rachel nodded and dove in. Finn looked up the pitch-black sky. "Kurt, dude, wherever you may be, I just hope you are fine and will show up soon.."

He finally decided to name the spots. The yellow spot's name was Trudy. The spot beside Trudy was now called Juliet. Trudy and Juliet were friends with Gus, Shawn and Adrian. The latter two were both gay spots who got bullied by big, nasty looking spots Carlton and Leland. Adrian just discovered his feelings for Shawn but was too afraid to tell him the truth. Kurt shook his head. What was wrong with him? Instead of worrying about what Dr. E. was up to, he was sitting here naming spots ,based on his dad's favorite detective series, and giving them background stories. Maybe he really spent too much time with Brittany. Kurt snapped out of his reverie when the door burst open and Detective Palmers entered, looking nervous. She quickly untied Kurt's ties. "Come on, we don't have much time. Mandy wants to keep you here forever until you spill. Now she's gone for a short time and we can get you out.", she said hastily. Kurt stood up and followed the woman out of the room and to the hallway. However, someone blocked their way. "Well, well, well, who do we have here? The boy and the traitor", Dr. E. said smiling and held up her gun, pointing to both of them. Detective Palmers pulled out her own weapon, but the scientist started laughing. "Oh Kenny, you really think I'm that dumb? Of course, I took out all bullets of your Glock while you were napping. I had a feeling you would sooner or later betray me, you and your sense of justice. And I thought you were my friend." Dr. E. laughed bitterly. The policewoman pulled the trigger, but nothing happened. The redhead cocked her eyebrow. "You believe me now?", she said. "This whole thing is ridiculous. What else do I have to do to prove you that you are wrong?", Kurt asked, trying to mask his fear. "Tell me the truth, that's all!", Dr. E. yelled. Detective Palmers sighed. "I think that's enough, Mandy. You trapped the boy for three days now, but I doubt he hides something, neither do his friends. Maybe we just misinterpreted things." "No! I won't give up that easily, never!", Dr. E. shouted. "Well, if that's the case…" Detective Palmers leapt to her former friend and tackled her to the ground. "Run!", she shouted at Kurt, while fighting with the scientist. Kurt obeyed and threw open the door. He ran to the edge of the port and was about to jump into the water, when he heard a gunshot and someone screaming in pain. Kurt paled. That voice definitely belonged to Detective Palmers. What would that crazy woman do to her if he left? He would never forgive himself if something was to happen to the policewoman who selflessly helped him escape. So, he turned around and ran back to the building.

Kurt peeked around the corner and spotted the brown-haired woman on the floor holding her bleeding stomach. Dr. E. was standing beside her, with trembling hands around the weapon. "Serves you right! You let him escape, how could you?", the scientist glared. "I once swore to myself to free the world from criminals, from people like you, Mandy. I never thought, you would go this far! But if it means I have to die to protect one innocent civilian, then so be it", Detective Palmers scoffed. "Shut up!" Mandy kicked her former friend into the side and the brunette hissed in pain. Kurt narrowed his eyes. He had to do something to help the poor woman. But as long as she held the gun in her hands, it would be too risky. Unless… Kurt moved his hands. Suddenly, a gust of wind threw the scientist to the floor and the weapon fell out of her grasp in the process. Detective Palmers easily caught it. "It's over now, Mandy. Please don't make this harder for me", the cop pleaded. However, Mandy started grinning evilly. "You know, I always have a plan B, Ken. What if I wouldn't be successful? You see, I have too many debts to pay, my family hates me because I wanted to become a scientist, not a lawyer like all of them and my husband cheated on me with his secretary. Now add a life sentence because I not only kidnapped an eighteen-year-old boy, I threatened both of you and shot a cop. I thought if I could prove the impossible was actually possible, my problems would be solved! But I was wrong. You're right. The world will be a tad better without me. That's why I'm blowing this whole place up inexactly…" She checked her watch "...forty seconds. I already set the timer off when you took the gun. Go and save yourself, I'm staying here. Have a nice life, Ken." With that words, the scientist quickly took Detective Palmers' handcuffs, cuffed herself on the door and threw the keys out of the window right into the sea. Kurt's eyes widened. The policewoman, too weak to prohibit that, gaped at her. "What are you waiting for? Go save yourself, only thirty seconds left!", Mandy shooed her out. Surprisingly, the cop got up and hugged the redhead. "I'm so sorry about all of this, Mandy. Goodbye." Mandy just nodded. "Yeah, yeah, it's okay. Now get the hell out of here before I literally throw you out!", she threatened. Detective Palmers stumbled out the door and ran right into Kurt. "What are you still doing here?", she hissed, surprised. "I couldn't leave you here with that psycho", Kurt confessed. Detective Palmers shook her head. "We will discuss that later. But now, we have to get out of her-" Suddenly, the detective fell to the floor and passed out. "Oh no", Kurt mumbled. He lifted the woman in his arms, bridal style, and ran to the port. Before he jumped into the water, he quickly untied his Alexander McQueen scarf and tied the brunette's wound as tight as he could. When he landed in the water, he heard a beeping. Kurt sped away as fast as he could, the woman still in his arms. Behind him, the small building blew up.
