SIN

Chapter 23: Things Take a Turn

(Following Day at 6 a.m.)

"Are you sure Wally?" Detective English asked him seriously.

"Yes!" Wally cried, "it wasn't just a dream but a flashback as well," he continued, "it started from when Hoagie and I separated but continued to and a little beyond when the attacker grabbed me and now I know what he looks like."

"Well you gave me a description," Detective English said formally, "but you're sure he didn't drop a name in your dream?" he asked Wally.

"Ugh, No!" Wally shouted, "why do you always belittle me!" he demanded.

"We need SOLID info kid!" Detective English exploded, "we can't go around arresting people based off something that might only be a dream," he told Wally.

"But it wasn't…" Wally started to protest.

"You've given us good evidence kid," Detective English told him, "much better than last time," he pointed out, "but we have to ensure this is real," he said pointedly, "we can get in a lot of trouble if we arrest the wrong guy," he said, "we can ruin lives Wally," he revealed.

"I don't want to do that," Wally said.

"I know," Detective English said kindly, "so work with us?" he asked and held out his hand.

"Okay," Wally said and shook his hand.

(11 a.m. at Chad's Residence)

Chad threw a dart at a picture of his parents hung on the wall in his room. He was grounded for two months and banned from driving for three. He knew his parents were now suspecting that he was bi, but he didn't care.

"The time I had with Lenny was amazing," Chad declared, "who knew that silent stuck up prick could …" he continued but stop, "suck so good!" he cried and rolled over laughing on his bed.

"I knew it!" Chad's Father cried suddenly and threw the bedroom door open frightening Chad, "you fucked that faggoty little prick didn't you!" he shouted.

Chad looked at his father then looked down at his feet.

"Yes I did Dad," Chad said as he wrung his fingers.

"Do you realize what this act is considered as in society and the eyes of God?" Chad's Dad asked him.

"The same God who drowned hundreds of adults and children in the Great Flood because they chose not to worship him?" Chad countered, "doesn't seem to live up to his anti-murder commandments," he said to his Father, "and what about you?" he asked, "you're a villain who attacks the KND!" he shouted.

"The KND is illegal!" Chad's Father shouted, "I'm proud to be Dino Dad!"

"Well I'm proud that I'm bi!" Chad shouted, "and I love Lenny!" he cried then covered his mouth.

Dino Dad stood so still time might as well had stopped.

"Wh…Wh..Wh..What did you just say?" Dino Dad asked his son.

"I'm in love with Lenny," Chad said tearfully, "I don't know what to do!" he shouted and broke into tears.

"I don't know what to do either," Dino Father said icily and left the room.

Done.

Death's Soulmate: Yes it's short. But it does make a major twist. Next chapter WILL be longer. I promise. Please review. Sorry it was late, I wasn't able to go on the net yesterday June 23. And no, the 'plague' isn't to blame this time.
