Chapter 11: finding Beca.
Next morning Chloe find herself at her and Aubrey's apartment sitting uncomfortable in middle of couch with all the Bellas surrounding her. All Bellas gazes on Chloe that makes her more uncomfortable some are of concern, some are worried, some are sympathy. Finally Chloe spoke after a long silence filled the room, " SO tell me Aubrey what are we doing here?"
That question bring Aubrey back into reality that it's something she have to do for her best friend, " Chloe we all help you to find Beca. We all care about her too we'll find her together." Aubrey says calmly. Chloe knows she can believe Aubrey that she can always find a way with her and all Bellas on her side she can find Beca. She look around her there are they on her side. She smiles brightly and simply nod. Or maybe she is wrong.
But after 5 hours she finds herself in middle of discussion of how they are gonna find out Beca that nearly seems like they are having some kind of debate. First they suggest that somehow turns into personal experience, then into taunts, then bickering, then don't know what's happening there Chloe just sit there while constantly massaging her temple.
"One time I lost my brother in mahakumbhamela ( that's some kind of huge festival in India and yes people could easily lost) and I found him almost 8 years later in same place." Flo says nonchalantly.
Everyone got silent for second not knowing how to respond. " ummm... flo you know that's not a same situation" Aubrey says finally.
"Yeah this could be worse. You know what if she got kidnapped or hijacked?" Emily says gasping.
"I'm sure then kidnappers also want money and they called US. Calm down Emily she is not kidnapped." Fat amy says.
"We can go back to her hometown, maybe she is leaving there?" Jessica says.
"Yes I mean it can be possible she is not leaving in LA now." Ashley says
"No I don't think so she will go back to her hometown. I'm pretty sure she is still in LA." Chloe says sighs deeply.
"We can call at her workplace. They Can give us her new address." CR says with some kind of hope.
"Yeah that's a good idea." Stacy chirp in.
"Mr. Mitchell called there but she already left that job too. And they don't know where she goes after." Chloe says sadly.
"Maybe she finally changed her name and fled to other countries after word championship." Flo says again.
Silence filled the room again all gazes on flo. Even Aubrey can't find words to reply. Fat amy leans toward Aubrey and whispers in her ear, " the word you are finding is anyway..."
For another hour they continued talking nowhere near to find Beca. Chloe mentally dismissed herself from the discussion going around her. She simply observes around everyone is tired right now. Flo is commenting weird statement, Aubrey is on the verge of frustration, fat amy tries to humor up the situation, Emily is now terrified and Jessica and Ashley trying to cheer her up,Stacie is now shaping her nails while CR stares on Stacie's boobs. This point Chloe rolls her eyes. Finally she sees Lily in kitchen who is currently focused on her laptop sitting on kitchen stool. Definitely she is finding something but Chloe confused when Lily smiles and mouth something that Chloe can't make out. " what are you saying?" Everyone stops from their own track to just see whom Chloe address but she didn't even looking at the group. They were about to think Chloe maybe lost her mind but when they follow her gaze they saw Lily. Well, that's explain it.
Lily mumbles something but NO one can figure it out. Chloe sighs and walk towards Lily to see what exactly she is doing or saying. When she carefully saw the screen of her laptop her mouth hungs open. " how...how did you do it?" Chloe says very amazed by the Asian girl. Now all the girls huddled over Lily looking for screen that was showing name of Beca Mitchell with various addresses.
"I found almost 134 Beca Mitchells from all over the world then I found in LA I got 16 Beca Mitchells. Maybe this can help us." Lily says in low voice but everyone can hear it.
"Yo I told you guys she is a Asian Jesus." Fat amy broke the silence.
Then all the Bellas back to the track of chaos.
"Oh my god there are 16 addresses it will take too much time... And not to mention it's LA... it's not like our small country...it's... It's a big whole city. It took me more than 2 hours just find one address." Chloe says while pacing into living room.
"It's alright chlo we will team up into groups. So it'll take less time and we can see through maps marks the nearby addresses which can check by one group. And others group can go to other areas of addresses." Aubrey says trying to sort out some things to Chloe but sounds unsure to herself.
"I just don't understand what you said now and you know I failed maps." Chloe says while stops pacing.
Aubrey walks back to her bedroom and come back with a map in her hand after a while. ( don't ask why Aubrey has maps because she is Aubrey Posen). After 45 minutes later, if anyone stranger walks into room can simply assumed that the girls are trying to hunt down their enemies by the looks of the girls expressions and the poor map which is covered by red dots with 3 big circles.
"So it's seems like 3 groups will be sufficient for the task. I'll tell Jesse to help us too." Aubrey tells everyone.
"And you think this is a good idea to take her ex to find her?" Chloe point out while narrowing her eyes on Aubrey.
"What? He is sorry about that andworried about her too." Aubrey says.
"I'll call benji. I'm sure he'll be happy to help." Emily chirps in.
"Fine. But I'll make a team." Chloe says, sighs deeply.
"Sure. You can." Aubrey says not thinking too much only a few minutes later she knows she made a mistake.
"You did it on a purpose. You put every dumbest person into my group." Aubrey says in disbelief. Her teammates are Jesse, fat amy and Flo.
"Hey, dumbest person alive is legacy and she is not even in your group." Fat amy says defending.
"I can switch CR with Jesse if you want." Stacy says. Stacy's teammates are Jessica, Ashley and CR.
"NO" came from both CR and Aubrey in unison.
"I'm just helping you." Stacie says defending herself while Chloe smirked.
"That's settles then : me, Lily, Emily and benji. : Aubrey, Jesse, fat and Flo. : Stacie, Jessica, Ashley and CR." Chloe says in finalized tone.

Finally Bellas with two trablemakers are in LA. Everyone got 5 addresses except for Chloe's group with 6 but they are almost near with each other so there is no difference.
...
Aubrey rings the bells of one old house which is located at nearly devastated area of LA. There is no one outside playing or walking.
"Is anyone here is scare to death? Because I'm." Fat amy says.
"No I already leaves long for my life." Flo commented that only make shivers Aubrey.
" if I get killed here kill Beca too when you find her." Aubrey says to Jesse under her gritted teeth.
After a 5 minutes one old lady opens the door who is probably at her 90's and will die at any minutes wearing a big glasses which only make her eyes looks big. That old woman has short brown hair dressed in long loose gown standing between door and door frame more like to support herself.
"Umm... we are here to find our friend Beca Mitchell. DO you know her? " Aubrey takes the lead.
"I'm Beca Mitchell." Old lady says while eyeing everyone. That startled Aubrey to scare because the glasses wear by old woman makes her eyes popping out.
"Oh my god, Beca? What happened to you? " Fat amy push Aubrey back and steps forward.
"Probably she walks pass through time tunnel. Don't pass through that door maybe it's a Time tunnel." Flo says suspiciously.
"I'm sorry mam we disturbed you. We must be getting wrong address." Jesse says while Aubrey is so pissed at the behaviour of Flo and fat amy. One down four to go.
...
Stacie rings a door bell. That was second address of her group. First one address they greeted by very fat angry looking women. After waiting for few minutes door opens. " how may I help you?" A very handsome looking young man greeted them. Stacie IS busy at staring that man. "Is any Beca Mitchell is here. We are actually finding our friend named Beca Mitchell." CR initiates.
"No there's no Beca Mitchell leaves here. My name is beck Mitchell. You must be fooled by name." He chuckles slightly.
"Yes maybe or maybe I was destined." Stacie says winking at the man in front of her making 3 Bellas eyes widened.
"Sorry our friend is joking. Sorry to bother you." Jessica says while CR hold Stacie's arm pulling her back.
...
Third address from Chloe's group. Chloe knocks on door gently and greeted by one little blonde girl holding her puppy on her arms.
"Hey, is anyone else is home?" Chloe says with wide smile on her face.
"Busy." Little girl says sadly.
"Ohhh... " Chloe looks at Emily who nods slightly. "is Beca Mitchell leaves here?"Chloe bends down a little to level up with girl.
Girl only nodded.
"Can we meet her?"Chloe says hopefully.
"Yes. She is Beca. Beca Mitchell and I'm sara. Sara Mitchell. Are you guys going to play with us?"girl says happily Raises a puppy on her hand for Chloe to see.
Chloe laughs at the idea of puppy's name is Beca Mitchell and at little girls innocence but also sad it was not her Beca Mitchell.
...
After two more false addresses, Chloe reached at their last address which was 's almost all sat at door step.
"I don't think this is a good idea Chloe. We should go. What if this house is always been locked." Emily says , too tired for waiting.
"It's a last address Em. Please just wait few more minutes. I know you are tired so we are. But we are doing this for Beca. " Chloe says,while Emily nods.
"Look the sunset. It's so beautiful." Emily says excitedly grab benji's hand.
"Not more than you." Benji says looking at Emily who also now looking towards him.
Chloe just smiles at them feeling happy for them but dropped her smile when Lily whispers something about ghosts and bat who is sitting on the other side of Chloe.
...
After 20 minutes, they heard a footsteps coming towards them but can't see through dark. A small frame appearing, short height, Brown hair, ear piercings.
"Beca?"Chloe says out loud.
