I wanna send a big shout out to everyone that reviewed, I'm so new at this and I was utterly nervous. I promise not to keep you waiting too long.
Chapter two: Sometimes I feel like a motherless child.
Alyssa waited impatiently to be picked up from school, it was finally friday and she wanted to try the new game her father bought her for her PlayStation. She sighed heavily, why was it taking whoever was going to pick her up so long?
She was too concentrated on pacing that she didn't hear some of her classmates approaching her. " Hey Alyssa, what are you doing here still?" A blonde, girl with dark eyes and a teasing grin asked.
Waitin' to be picked up stupid!, she thought with a smirk. She really hated those girls, they were always talking behind her back and that irritated her to no end. She swallowed her anger and tried her best to smile, " I'm just waiting for my dad."
" Ok. Listen, Pleasance's having a mother-daughter slumber party, wanna come? Oops! I forgot, you don't have a mother." Another blonde said with an evil smile. Alyssa wanted to kill her.
" No I don't. And I don't need one either, my dad is all I need." She defended with an icy tone. The girls just laughed at her.
" Come on Alyssa, every girl needs a mom to talk to. I mean, you can't possibly hang out with your dad at the mall and check out boys, that's ridiculous. But don't sweat it, we can share my mom, although there are games we'll play only my mother and me." The other gilrs giggled in mocking tones while Alyssa's eyes teared up.
" No thanks, you can keep your mom." She tried to choke down her tears, she didn't want to show weakness in front on them. Emotions are weakness and weakness will get you killed, that's what Max had told her.
" Suit yourself but you can't come to Pleasance's party without a mom. See ya, come on girls." Alyssa watched as the bunch left muttering things. She sat on the emty bench and sighed.
I don't need a mom. Who am I kiddin'? But Max is the only one that understands me and she doesn't want to be my mom. Why did you take my mom away God? Why? Her inner musings were interrupted by a shadow covering her own, she looked up and smiled weakly, it was her dad.
" Hey sport, sorry I'm late." He took her back pack and kissed her forehead.
" It's ok dad, it's ok." She secretly wiped a stray tear away and smiled.
The trip home was quick and quiet, after parking the car they went to the elevator. Logan punched the penthouse number and waited for the doors to close. He noticed his daughter's attitude and worried.
" Are you ok princess? You look kinda sad." He combed her long hair with his hand.
" I'm ok dad, it's nothing." She replied and remained silent for the rest of the ride.
When they got home, they ate in relative silence and each retrieved to their hideouts, Logan to his office and Alyssa to her room. She changed in to a pair of black shorts and a white tee, after that she braided her hair in to a pony tail and grabbed her black nikes and her basketball and ran out of her room.
She knew where her dad was so she ran towards his office, indeed he was concentrated in reading the stack of papers in front of him.
" Dad, I'm gonna shoot some hoops downstairs. Be back in a while." Logan turned to her with a worried look.
" I don't think that's a good idea. I've been receiving calls from Matt saying that there have been some kidnapping going around. He told me to keep you inside until and I think it's the best thing to do, at least until I crack this case up." Alyssa dropped the ball in a desperate manner.
" No way dad! You can't keep me trapped inside, it's not fair." She whined popping a pout.
" It's for your own safety, I don't want you to get kidnapped." He turned back to his papers.
" Dad please, it's not fair. I promise to be real careful." She tried once again, Logan turned around with a stern look.
" I already told you Alyssa. You are to obey my orders and stay inside, I've spent a lot of money in computers, games and music, use them!" He finished with a loud sigh.
" Fine!" She replied and turned to walk away, she stopped in the living room and went back to check on her father silently. He was already concentrated on his task so she grabbed her ball and got out of the house quietly.
" I can't believe he wants me to stay inside, I'd die of boredom. Besides, no one's gonna kidnapp me." She muttered under her breath as she sank the ball repeatedly in to the hoop.
She was too concentrated and didn't hear the noise behind her until it was too late, she turned with a smile hoping it was Max but was rendered speechless. Two men covered with masks and dressed in black knocked her with a blow and that was the last thing she could remember...
Hey I'm sorry for the cliffhanger, I hate 'em too. Please don't hate me, I just have to get my ideas straight before I continue to write. I promise to post another one real soon. Be good and review, I could use advice from the experienced writers.
