I decided, especially for some friends who said I wasn't updating fast enough, to put two chapters on the net today. Chapter 12 and 13. So I hope you like them:)). I know they are short, but have fun anyway!
Chapter 13
The men were sitting in the car, parked in the verge of the road. The little man was having a telephone call with their client. The man didn't seem to like what he was told to do. The big man, his friends called him Shorty, looked at his friend. He shrugged his shoulders, in that way saying he had no clue how the conversation was developing and both men just waited for their boss to hang up.
After some minutes, their boss hanged up and Shorty asked:" So, what is the next step?" The boss frowned his eyebrows and was surprised by that question. After some seconds, he decided to answer it anyway. "We have to go to a look out point, just a couple of kilometers down the road. He said they had to pass that look out point on their way home. They would probably spend the night there."
Shorty sighed. He didn't want to wait for people, who had already kicked his ass once before. But when he saw the face of his boss, he said nothing. He turned the key, drove the car back on the road and followed the signs to the look out point.
Emma looked at Adam. She just woke up and saw that they were a lot further then before. They were almost at a look out point, where she and Shalimar had been once before. Adam stopped the car and sighed. There were two roads, one to the look out point and the other further into the ravine.
"Why do you stop the car?" Emma asked.
Adam looked at her and said:" If they are walking to Sanctuary, then they are almost at the look out point. If they are really hurt, then we have to go right."
Emma nodded. She understood his dilemma and wanted to help with this decision.
She tried to make contact with Jesse, who was the easiest one to access. She felt his pain and there was something else, but she couldn't place it. "Emma?' asked Adam. Emma snapped out of her concentration and said to Adam: "Go left to the look out point. They are on their way and almost there already." Adam looked at her for one second, then turned the key and steered to the left.
Shorty parked the car and turned the headlights off. The three men stepped out of the car and they walked to the house next to the look out point. The boss opened the front door, while Shorty and his friend were on the watch out. He let his eyes get used to the darkness inside the cabin. He took a step inside and heard a voice suddenly say:" Finally, you took your time to get here." The boss sighed and recognized the voice of his client. He shut the door behind him and said:" You got here very quickly" His client ignored this remark and asked:" Did you see them already?"
He shook his head and answered:" We just arrived here. Shorty and Gil are on the watch out". He stopped speaking when he heard the sound of a car that parked in front of the cabin. He walked to the window and looked outside. "There is that Adam and he brought a girl with him." He followed the movements of Adam and the girl and let them not out of his sight.
Adam parked the car and didn't notice the car that was already there. Emma and he stepped out of the car. Emma tried to contact her friends again and didn't pay much attention at Adam, who was just entering the house. He stepped inside and felt suddenly something cold against his temple. He stood still, but a voice said:" Dr Kane, come in, we were expecting you." Adam was pushed inside and the door was closed behind him. He looked to the person in front of him and said:" I thought you were dead."
The man nodded with a smile. "That was my intention. Otherwise I couldn't go through with my plans." "What plans?" asked Adam.The man kept smiling." You will see, just have some patience." he said.He said to the other man:" Tie him to the chair. We get more guests. He can wait with us." Adam was getting tied to the chair, but couldn't protest, because the gun was still on his temple.
