Chapter 6: The Search

~~~Back at Sanctuary 6:00pm~~~ "Adam!" Shalimar called. "Have you heard anything on Brennan? He

should be back by now." Adam looked at her sadly pondering whether or not he should tell her. He decided

to wait and tried to calm her down. "I'm sure he's fine Shal, he probably just got stuck in traffic or

something." "I don't think traffic would be that bad Adam." Shalimar argued. "Well, maybe he stopped

somewhere, who knows. Track his comlink and we'll see where he is." Shal agreed and walked away. 'I

hope he didn't get caught' Adam thought. 'What if he did? It would all be my fault, and I would have to find

a way to get him out.' As he was thinking these things, Emma came in and said, "Adam, Brennan's

comlink is disabled. Why would he do that Adam? Do you think he's alright. He could have gotten into an

accident." "Emma, I'm sure he's fine, ok? Just stop worrying. I'll finish this up then go out to find him.

Have Jesse track the car then I will go find him." Emma looked at me confused and said, "But why you?

You never go out on our missions, and I thought we should go as a team." "Because!" Adam said sternly,

and turned away. Emma tried reading him but he knew she would and he just thought how he wanted her to

leave. She sensed this and left quickly. Jesse entered about ten minutes later and said, "Adam, I tracked the

Camaro to a house on Lanyard Avenue." Jesse paused for a second, "What do you think he was doing way

down there?" Adam sighed and asked, "What's the address?" Jesse looked upset but told Adam, "48572."

"Thanks Jes." And with that, Adam walked out not saying another word. "Think we should go after him?"

Shalimar asked. "Yeah but lets wait a few minutes, give him a head start." Jesse replied. ~~~48572 Lanyard

Ave. 7:30pm~~~ Adam arrived on scene, but wasn't alone. There where a few police cars, and some

neighbors watching. Down the road, Adam saw a parked Grand Am. He walked up to one of the police

officers and asked, "What happened?" the police informed him that the driver was a thief and got chased by

the cops, before getting caught and sent to the Jascoda Jail. He told him all about the chase and the Grand

Am. After the officer finished Adam got into his car, and drove to the Jascoda Jail. ~~~Jascoda Jail

8:45pm.~~~ "Mulwray!" I heard someone call. I woke up to the sound of my name, but was still tired. I

looked to my left and saw a gray stone wall. I wondered where I was, as I sat up, my eyes still closed.

"Mulwray!" the man called again. I opened my eyes and saw a man standing on the other side of the bars. I

knew where I was, and why I was here. "What do you want?" I said tired. "Hey! You will respect me and

address me as 'sir'!" "Yeah whatever," I said. He opened the cell and came in side. I lied down again as he

approached me. He reached my bed and wacked me over the head with his rod. "Hey!" I started but he

interrupted me. "That was for disrespecting! This is no ordinary jail Mr. Mulwray! You will respect me or

you will be beaten to death! Do you understand?" "Yeah, yeah. Remind me, which one's worse?" I laughed

but the man just hit me again. I got up and punched him hard in the face. He fell over but got up almost

immediately. I knew that in my weakened state I couldn't do too much damage, but I could still put up a

fight. He won the fight knocking me almost unconscious, to my knees and falling into my bed. "You have a

visitor." He spat out discussed. I didn't want to talk to anyone so I merely crawled into my bed and laid on

my stomach, my head buried in my pillow. "Brennan." I heard Adam say. "Brennan?" he took a deep breath

and sighed heavily. "I think I figured out away to get you out." I still didn't say anything. My mind was

blank. "I'll come back tomorrow, with everyone. They're gonna help you get out, and they will want to see

you." "Go away." Was all I could say. I felt horrible and I didn't want to show my face to anyone. I was

ashamed of myself and didn't deserve to be rescued. Adam left, and I fell back asleep.
