AN: this chupter might have more cussing then usualy (I know there are some in other chapters too... PG 13 remember?) So just letting you know.
Chapter 20
OoO Like Father Like Son; Junior OoO
"You fucking son of a bitch." Piper muttered under her breath to the man next to her.
It was he who was responsible for the misery of the last three years, he who killed Luke and her baby.
It was Big Man.
He smiled.
"I think I deserve that. I truly am sorry Miss MacMartin. Your husband left me no choice." He said in that deep voice of his, which was now disgusting to her ears.
She had no words in her mouth, she felt the thoughts screaming in her head, wanting to come out, but her mouth wouldn't cooperate.
"Now, you must have a million questions for me. Shoot away." He said, leaning back with satisfaction.
Pig.
"Where are you taking me?"
"LA."
"Why?"
"You know too much, and after you saw the cameras there was no way I was letting you spill it to the detective."
"You can't do this! You just can't take me away so I won't talk!" She said in frustration.
"Ah, but Piper, Big Man can do anything he wants." He said, grinning from ear to ear.
"Fuck you."
"Gladly, anytime." He said, his smile still pierced to his face.
How could he live with himself? He was so relaxed, as if everything in life was going his way, he was in control.
She tried to calm her breathing, but it was harder then it might have seemed.
"How can you live with yourself?" She asked, but she knew she sounded miserable.
"That's my secret darling. I love myself, almost as much as I love women."
The men around him smiled, again, but he motioned them to spread around, so they obeyed immediately walking in different directions away from Piper and Big Man.
"You know my name. Tell me yours." She said, wanting to know the name of the Ass who she hated more then anything.
"You can call me... Big Man. Mister Big Man. Mister BM. However you wish." He said, and she wanted to slap him.
"You know, you are a smart lady Ms. Halliwell. A lot like dear old Luke."
"Don't you dare..." She started, but he ignored her.
"He was a wise man. Too wise, and it's not healthy sometimes. Look where he ended up."
"Shut up..." She whispered.
"He did a huge mistake by telling you. I was obliged to kill you too."
"Didn't work too well." She said.
"No, it didn't. And you've caused quite enough trouble. But you see, I don't send people to kill the same individual twice. I failed, and I must live with it."
"Then why the hell did you take me on here?..." She asked, and the tears started blinding her vision, as much as she tried to stop them.
She was in a situation which she was completely unfamiliar with, and it made her feel like a lost child in an endless field.
"I had no choice. Wyatt is probably our biggest concern at the moment, and I don't want him knowing anymore then he already does."
As he said so, a woman walked up to them.
It was Ms. Dobbs.
"Piper, how nice to see you." She said with an evil grin on her face.
"You bitch." Piper muttered unbelievingly.
"Surprise surprise... You know, you really were a pain in the ass these past weeks." Dobbs said.
"What do you want Margaret?" Big Man asked, sounding annoyed.
"Wyatt is already looking for her." Dobbs said, dropping the smile as she turned to the large man next to Piper.
"That's my kind of a man. Never letting him women slip, always keeping an eye on them." Big Man said.
Dobbs seemed uncomfortable for a second, and Piper remembered about her little crash.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Let him keep looking. It'll keep his mind off of us." He said.
"Don't you think he'll figure it was you?"
"He can go ahead. He knows nothing about where we are, or who for that matter."
"You are taking a risk." Another man said, walking up to them.
Piper recognized his as one of the men who took her back in Wyatt Investigations.
"Keep it closed Junior. When it comes to Wyatt or Halliwell here you've always failed. That's why I sent Correo with you today. I can't even trust you to kidnap a little lady." Big Man snapped.
'Junior' was Big Man's son, with no doubt. He had his fathers sly expression. And to think that he has been working in Wyatt Investigations right under Leo's nose. All the years Leo has been looking for Big Man and he's always been right there.
She looked up at Junior again, and suddenly she got a flashback.
His face, it was so familiar. Where had she seen him before?
"I think I've done quite a dissent job three years ago." He claimed, and it struck her.
She saw his face only once before, about three years ago.
His car was getting closer and closer to her and Luke, until he crashed right into them.
He was the driver of the car that killed Luke!
Unable to hold herself, Piper jumped from her seat.
"You killed them!" She found herself screaming.
Junior took a step back.
"Wouldn't forget a face like that ha? We Big people are unforgettable." Big Man said, never moving a hair.
He was more combatable in his shoes then any other man Piper ever came across with.
"So what is your plan? Ha?? You're goanna keep me in LA until when? They will find me you know." She said, still feeling the anger in her veins.
"Darling, I can think of thousand things I can do in LA with you. And really, you needn't worry. I can make sure they don't find you. They haven't been able to find me for years." He said, his words playing over and over in her head like a broken record.
---OoO---
Leo woke up with a start.
It wasn't even five in the morning, but he felt like he's been up for hours.
Then he remembered what was troubling him in his dreams, and an image of Piper came up in his head.
She looked so strong, effective, so alive. He loved her for that.
He washed his face and headed to his kitchen.
It seemed empty, the way it always was.
At six, he couldn't wait any longer and called Piper's place.
"Hello?" Came Phoebe's voice, and he could have sworn it was Piper.
"Piper??"
"No. I've been up all night and she never showed up." Phoebe said.
"Damn in."
"Prue is here too, we're worried sick. Did Darryl get anything?"
"I'm calling him next. I'll call you right away if there is news."
Darryl had nothing too.
It's like the ground swallowed her.
But he feared the worst. Piper knew something; she was going to tell him something... what if she remembered? What if this was exactly what happened three years ago, when Luke told Darryl he knew something, and the same day he was dead?
Leo felt a chill go through his body with the thought.
He had to do something. SOMETHING.
There had to be something he could do.
Unable to think of anything, he dressed up and headed to the police offices downtown.
As much as he hated Snidecor and the rest of them, he knew they might be aquite a bit of help, because it was too early to turn to the FBI about it. Maybe tomorrow, but hopefully she would show up by then.
She had to.
---OoO---
Soon enough they landed in AL.
"Now, you be a good girl and go when my people tell you to. I'm afraid I'll have to leave now, but I'll make sure they keep you entertained." He said with a grin, and headed out of the plane with two men after him, one of them opening a black umbrella and holding it above Big Man as they walked down the stairs of the plane into the rainly LA.
Junior came up to her.
"Come on, it's time to move it."
"Where are you taking me?" She asked, trying to look like she is in control, but knowing she's everything but.
"Don't ask questions. Get up and try to stay quiet, I Ddon't want you grabbing any attention. If you dare to squeak, you will suffer from the consequences." He said.
He was very short tempered, unlike his laid back father.
Out of no choice, Piper pulled herself up, and headed for the way out surrounded by men in black suits.
"Wear this." Ms. Dobbs said, handing Piper a black jacket.
"Why?"
"Do it." She said, and walked out.
"Why?" Piper asked, directing it to Junior this time.
"Don't play with my temper. Wear the fucking jacket." He snapped.
Piper, again out of no choice, pulled the jacket on her, and was about to button it when Junior stopped her.
"Don't. Leave it open."
Suddenly, he took out a small black gun, and charged it.
He took a step closer to Piper, and his hand which was now holding a gun went through the jacket along her back, giving shivers to her spine.
"You make one wrong move." He warned, and used the gun to stick in into her back.
Piper winced, and stopped her breath sharply. Now she was seriously terrified.
He had no reason why not to pull that trigger and get rid of her.
"Move it." He instructed.
They all started moving, and he pulled her closer to him so that they were touching each other along their sides.
He led her out of the plane, everyone including Dobbs around them.
She wanted to scream. If she wasn't so stressed out, she would have probably stopped and through out. Not just because flights make her sick.
She was in a situation in which she and her life were completely in the hands of someone else, and she wanted to do was cry for help.
It doesn't get much worse then this, and for some reason all she wanted is to see was Leo.
Out of all people she was most desperate to see him. He would save her; he would make it all ok...
He BETTER hurry.
AN: What do you think? I know that not much happened in this chapter, but I think it was important to show the mood, and not to hurry up with things. Gotta keep you all wanting more... (; Please review.
