Chapter 5
Send an Angel for Angela
Walker's gripped tightened on the receiver as if he could choke the man on the other line.
"What do you want?" Walker snapped growing impatient by each passing, agonizing second. The voice on the other line chuckled. Alex got up and moved closer kneeling on the floor next to Walker searching his eyes for answers.
"I just want you to suffer." Said the man as if already getting satisfaction out of the tone of Walker's voice.
"How?" Walker wanted nothing else on Earth other than having his daughter back. His mind flashed back to when the senator had his daughter kidnapped he now knew how the senator felt.
"I know you've met my son…Jack McGregor…your daughters date. I'm sure the last name has to be familiar, you can recall my wife the one you killed Emily McGregor." Walker's mind once again flashed back a couple of years, Angela was about seven when he took on the McGregor case. Now it was all coming clear.
The McGregor was your average distorted family, Dad dealt drugs, Mom was addicted, and the son was an innocent bystander who idolized his father and all his belongings were bought with drug money. He remembered Emily McGregor once the most highly acclaimed chef in Dallas, but when her habit was released to the press her life was turned upside down. Her husband, James McGregor, was never addicted just dealt, he was one of those low profile dealers almost untraceable. He never did a drug deal in the same place and he went by the name of J no one could trace him. He was very elusive and almost impossible to catch, and when his son Jack came around he was even more careful. One day though he slipped, the rangers had traced a new shipment of drugs across the border, and into McGregor's residence. Jack was in school when they did the bust, they came in, arrested Emily, and confiscated the drugs. Emily was to drugged to confess anything so the rangers decided she had to be the dealer (James had stepped out just before the bust, and no one was aware until later that there was a family). After that day contacts reported that J had stepped down from the business and started life somewhere else. Emily went to a hospital for drug treatment, but it was to late, she died three months after the drug bust. Walker wondered if Jack knew the truth.
"Well…" Walker was amazed of how much he though in such a short period of time.
"Yeah I remember, but I didn't kill your wife." Walker was tired of these games he wanted his daughter. "What do you want?" He repeated.
"Two million dollars, which is what I lost because of you, delivered to the dump right outside our kid's school, Jack will pick it up, any funny business and I pull the trigger that I got pressed against your girl's temple understood?" Walker shattered the mug in his hand, Alex raced to clean it up.
"I understand."
"Once that goes without a hitch will contact you again."
"Let me speak to Angela!" Walker demanded, Alex was soaking the coffee up off the carpet she looked up into Walker's eyes. There was a pause on the other line when he heard a faint whimper.
"Daddy?" Angela's voice was barely above a whisper.
"Angela, angel baby its me, what's going on?" A long pause followed the question.
"There is a gun to my head and…" The phone was taken away and James McGregor got back on.
"Now you have your instructions, and if you don't do as told I will pull the trigger." Walker could hear sobbing in the background before the phone clicked dead.
Walker hung up the phone, Alex had stopped cleaning and was studying Walker closely.
"Say a prayer Alex, say a prayer that God delivers an angel to Angela." Alex then cried in Walker's lap, as Walker placed a call to the rangers.
Well what do you think? I told you I'd get you the whole call in, sorry it took about a month to update-New Year's resolution "update stories more often" but nobody really does keep those. Please R/R.
