Part 17, Christmas fair somewhere in Washington
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bernd Schmiedt was on a visit in Washington. Actually he was here to look after his brother he hadn't seen before. As he was told that he was adopted he had tried everything to find his natural parents. With the help of his adopted parents he had found out that his parents were dead but he had a brother who was living in Washington. Now he would like to meet him. He had taken his holiday and went to Washington. He had many information about his brother, his address, too. But before he had the brave to face him he would do some sightseeing. He went to the christmas fair. After he had looked around a short while a man forced him to go with him. He went with him, because he had no other choice. They went to a far-flung place behind the church. The man took a gun and pointed it at Bernd.
"Finally I got you, Stetson. Now you are paying for this you had done to me."
Bernd would say something but it was to last. The man fired and escaped. Because of the shot some people came to the place and called a ambulance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amanda a made the proposal to take a walk until it was time for the dinner. All get finished. Just as they would left the house the phone was ringing. It was a police man Lee knew. He would speak with him.
"Hi Lee, something weird had happened. You should better come to the hospital. You want believe it."
"Okay Dylan, I will come." Lee told the other from his call and Amanda drove him to the hospital .During this time Bossi and the Angels went out alone.
Dylan was waiting in front of the hospital for Lee. He introduced Amanda to him.
"Nice to meet you. Lee I didn't know that you know such beautiful women. Call me Dylan, please."
Amanda shook hands with him. "It is nice, too. You don't need to flirt with me. I am married. You can call me Amanda."
As she said this she looked Lee deep into his eyes.
"So Dylan. What weird had happened?"
"Today a man was shoot on the christmas fair. His condition is critically but the doctor said he will survive."
Lee was getting impatient. "There is nothing weird on it. Every single day people are getting shoot and this at weird places like this. Many of them are dying!"
"This is not the mysterious on it! He is looking exactly looking like you and in his bag we had found your address and a lot of information about you."
"This is really weird. Can we see him?"
Dylan asked the doctor.
"Yes, you can but only a short time. He is awaken now!"
Amanda and Lee went to Bernd´s room. Amanda was frighten about the great similarity between be two men. You could think that they were a clone.
"Hello. I am Lee Stetson and this is my wife Amanda."
Bernd nodded then he said with weak voice. "I know who you are and I had wished we would met with better circumstance. My name is Bernd Schmiedt and I had come from Germany to search for you."
Then he had no strength to speak further.
"Why are you looking after me. Who are you working for?"
Bernd took his last strength the answer Lee´s question. "I am working for a computer company and I am looking after you because I would meet my brother!"
Lee could not answer to this.
"Lee, I think it would be better if we let Mr. Schmiedt sleep. We are getting back tomorrow."
Amanda left the room and pulled Lee with her. He had to came to terms with this news."
"Mandy, it can't be. I am an only child and my only living relative is the Colonel."
Amanda was standing in front of him and looked at him.
"I believe him. Give him time to recover. Then you can ask him why he is thinking that you are his brother. Let´s go home."
Both went to the car.
"I will call my uncle. Perhaps he knows something more about it and if not I am going to check his name on the computer. I will find out the truth about him."
"Okay and I am going to help you. Would it be nice to have a brother?"
Lee didn't answer. He thought about his childhood especially about his parent. But it didn't work.
"Darling don't think to much about it. We are going to find out it he is lying or telling the truth."
As the reached the house Amanda made the dinner and Lee tried to call his uncle. He had luck and he answered the phone.
"Hi Colonel. This is Lee."
"Nice to hear from you after this long time. Is there a especially reason for calling me?"
"Yes, there is. I am just coming back from the hospital. I police officer I know had called me to a man who was shot down. He had carried a lot of information about me with himself. And he is looking exactly like me. As I had talked with him he had said that he is my brother. Is it right, so I have any siblings?"
"Yes, it is right. He could be your brother. But it is a long and a difficult story!"
"Tell it me, now. You had been hiding it long enough from me."
"Your father had a very dangerous and urgent assignment as your brother was born. You were two years old at this time. The cover for your dad had blown up and someone was going to kill you all. It was very difficult to escape with a toddler but with a newborn it was impossible. So Jenny gave him with a heavy heard away. As many as I know he came to a german family who were at this time in Chicago. Your father were there, too. I would always tell you about you brother but it was never the right time. Later I had suppressed it."
"He had taken the best moment to show up her. He was going to die at my place today. I will never let him out of my sight, now. Thank you that you finally had told me the truth."
"I had tried to call you yesterday but no-one answered. Where had you been?"
"I wasn't there. I have moved. I am living with Amanda now."
"Have I missed something?"
"Yes, but I will tell it you later!"
"Okay, bye until a further call. Bye Lee and look after your brother."
Colonel Claydon closed the line and Lee searched his wife.
"What had your uncle been telling?" Amanda asked as Lee entered the kitchen.
"I have a two year younger brother I doesn't know from. He is in a great danger. I will call Billy, he should take care of it."
Lee went to the living room and called Billy. In the meantime the visit came back form their walk. Lee said them that Amanda was in the kitchen and the went to her. There Amanda was telling them about the events of the day.
"Masters had tried to kill me again today. But it had hit my brother he had not known from until today. But this is another story. Lee is trying to get him in a safety place with the help of Billy."
A short time later Lee entered the kitchen.
"Billy will take him tomorrow in our hospital. Until this someone will guard his room in the hospital. I will go tomorrow to him and explain it to him."
Amanda insisted on getting with him.
