Assignment: Joey Potter

Chapter 32

Bessie repeatedly kept knocking on Joey's door. Nobody. She was very worried. Where was she?

She had been knocking on the door for 10 minutes already. And she had gotten no response.

She had came to tell Joey she was falling in love with Wayne. She knew Joey would rattle on about how wrong he was to her but she couldn't stop her heart from loving him. Bessie and Wayne had went to Plano to get Alex that afternoon. He had liked Wayne the second he saw him. Bess knew that she had to tell Joey sometime or another.

"Joey? Are you in there?"

"Jo?"

She gave up and went in search for Alex if he had any clue where his aunt was.

Joey was all wired up with cables and wires. They mostly were in her shirt and on the side of inner thighs. She was nervous. Of course she was. She could get killed in there. But she knew every step she had to do and she was ready. Peters was going over everything for the last time with her. All she wanted to do was put an apple in his mouth and tell him to shut up. He was actually making her more scared than she was.

"If he comes at you with a gun-you----?" He asked, prodding her to answer.

"Calmly reason with him and try to get the gun's aim from me."

"Precisely."

"I know all this already. I'm ready and roaring."

"Okay. We will be at the corner. Listening to everything you're saying. Don't worry---if something wrong happens we'll be there in a flash."

"That's good to know." Joey replied sarcastically.

Pacey was standing next to her in a sullen stance.

"Hey Pace?"

"Yeah." He asked looking at her.

"Will you go call Bessie?"

Peters interjected. "You can't do that."

"Why not?"

"Because. We don't want any mishaps. She will try to stop you and the cover will be blown."

"No she won't" Joey spoke up. "She won't ruin anything. I just think she'll be a little worried at home without any knowledge of where I am now."

"But Joey---" Peters tried to reason.

"No but Joey. If anything happens to me I want my sister to be informed that I'm here before she finds out on the news."

"Okay. I think we can do that."

"Thank you."

Breath had finished polishing all the instruments he needed for this big night. The girl that got him in all this trouble was finally going to be rid of. After the horrendous murder of his wife and Joey, he had a redeye to Greece. He was going to be done of this serial killer business. All he had to do was kill two more.

David Breath still had no clue where Sapphire was except that she was living with a cop. Actually he knew the address. There was a police department party where there was going to be no cops in the house. It was a perfect time to get her. Right now all he had to do was wait for Ms. Potter to arrive.

***************************************************************************

Sapphire was at the house waiting for another officer of the law department to finish getting ready. She had demanded that she was present at the raid. She wanted to see her lowly husband, handcuffed and arrested. She wanted him to get what he deserved. Hell.

****************************************************************************

Joey walked slowly up to the Beth house where she had arranged to meet him. She heart was beating a mile a minute. Her legs felt like they were going to collapse under her. This was her chance. She needth not be afraid. Oh yeah she should. She could be killed in a second.

She finished walking up the last three steps on the walk. Joey glanced up to the big oak door from where her head had previously been down. The house had a strange eerie sense to it. It felt to her a haunted house, where ghosts and witches appear suddenly and scariedly. The door creaked open. And it a brisk swift, Joey was taken into the creepy house. With Breath. Alone.
