I watched the body fall limp, and wiped the blood from my cheek. I quickly moved outside, maneuvering over the dead bodies. Everyone was huddled together; some wounded others emotionally scarred. "Blossom, I thought we were dead" Boomer pulled me into a hug. I was still in kill-mode so I didn't hug him back,
"Anyone hurt?" He pulled away from me and moved out-of-the-way. I saw my father laid out on the damp green grass. My walls came crashing down as I fell to his side. "Is he alive" No one answered me. I checked for signs of life. I placed my head over his chest. My heart was beating so fast I could barely hear his. I took a deep breath and listened closer...
His heart beat was faint but it was there. I smiled as I scanned him for the wound. Or should I sat wounds. Glass shard,that looks to be in the major artery in his leg and gun wound near shoulder. "We need to get him to the hospital. NOW!" Just as i said that an ambulance pulled up and quickly swooped him away. "Boomer get in the truck, I'm right behind you" He did ask questions. He just followed suit. I looked around for Butch, only to see him carted away as with Mojo. Fuck! As a continued to look around me, I couldn't find Sedusa either... That shady bitch!
"You need help?" I looked up to see Brick, looking at me with carefull eyes.
"No, it's just that most of my fucking family is hurt and..." I pushed the emotions away. "I need Blonde there to go stall the police. Come up with the best damn cover story and sell it! Bieber guy and Feisty Bitch, I need information. Scoop out the place get find anything useful. I want to know who did this and why before I go to bed. Brick, come with me. We're going to the hospital.
I stormed into the hospital as if I knew where i was going. I went to the 6 floor and found Boomer. "Bloss, he's in surgery"
"So he's alive?"
"God forbid otherwise" Boomer sat down, looking stressed.
"Where's Butch and Mojo" Boomer looked up.
"They weren't picked up by the ambulance..."
"Boomer what the hell are you talking about? I WATCHED them leave"
"Bloss, I'm telling you..." I muted Boomer out. I tried to erase my emotions, and think straight. Too much was happening, too fast.
"You stay here. Support dad, I'll find out where Butch is. Have you see Sedusa?" Boomer slightly smiled at the childish nickname.
"Honestly, I haven't seen her since dinner" I raised my eyebrow. i bent down and hugged Boomer.
"Stay strong, he will be fine"
"You stay strong, I see the walls your putting up." i released him and sat up. "I'll let you know if I hear anything" I nodded and walked away with Brick.
"So what's next" He struggled to keep up with me.
"I honestly don't know..."
we decided to drive back to the scene and see if Bieber and Feisty Bitch found anything. "We need to figure out who would do something like this?"
"I agree but that's not first. Something in me feels like this was planned, but by who?" I slammed my hand on the dashboard. Brick slowed down and pulled over. "What the hell are you doing?! let's move"
"No. You need a moment to vent" He looked at me with those passionate eyes. My face fell and I felt like crashing but I had to keep moving.
"Now is not the time, please. Let's keep going."
"Fine, but you will tell when your ready right?" I nodded in response. No one has ever been able to see through my façade. Why him? I sat back wrapped in my thoughts until we stopped again. I let my mind control my actions instead of conscious maneuvering my body. I got out of the car to see the couple sitting down chatting. My temper flared as I quickly strode towards them.
"Get the fuck up, what do you think this is ?! We have family members about to lose their lives and you two idiots are here chit chatting like there isn't shit else to do?!" They had nothing to say, they just looked at me. Before I could say more, Brick joined the conversation.
"You two CAN'T be together so what else is there to talk about?! Honestly, lets just stop and stay focused on the task at hand. Did you two bother to do that?"
"Of course, because my father wasn't hurt!"
"Buttercup your sarcasm is vetoed now. You have NO credibility!"
"There's nothing here. No type of clues."
"There has to be something..." I walked off from them. If you want something done, you do it yourself. I picked up the phone from my purse and dialed a special number.
"I need you here in 3" I hung up the phone without a response and walked toward the scene to analyze it. The culprits obviously surrounded the building, partially. How was butch able to get in? I looked to the parklot to see my caller arrived. "Took you long enough!" He smirked.
"Nice to see you to." Brent sat his equipment down, and pulled me in a bear hug. He picked me up and twirled me arround. I let me walls down for this short moment and let my self enjoy this time. Seeing Brent. He put me down and I noticed his beaming smile. Brent was the one person that supported me when I went away. I was at the all girl school and he was at the all boys school. We sneaked away to hang out now and then. Brent's cute I'll admit. Nice burgundy eyes, deep brown hair that was long and wavy. He was the guy that could have any girl, yet I had him right under my thumb. As i looked at him, I watched his facial expression quickly turn serious as he recognized his surroundings. "Looks like we have a bombing, planned but interrupted... Any leads?"
"What's what your here for" He smirked a bit. He began to work and I turned back to Brick and the couple.
"Whose he?" Brick looked slightly jealous, not that I cared.
"A friend of mine, he's gonna help me with this. You three can go home, I'll keep you updated." They didn't move.
"Mitch and Buttercup can leave, I'm staying."
"I don't need you here"
"You need me more than you think you do"
It was 2 in the morning. Brick, Brent and I were at a diner trying to piece things together. "I got my team analyzing the data, I collected. To help are there any enemies your fathers have in common?"
"All of Townsville. We're a mob, everybody's out to bring us down"
"True. Since you've both have power this long, nobody has brought you down... Meaning that this was an inside job" My eyes didn't wide, there's always a rat in whatever kind of situation. Somebody out to bring you down even when they're always smiling in your face.
"Well obviously it's Mitch"
"I can't disagree with that, I don't like the guy but I've known him my whole life. He wouldn't do this... What about that cute burette that stormed out"
"You think she's cute?" They looked at me questioningly, "I mean, Robin? I know she's mad but I doubt she would attempt to kill us"
"Well you have been gone a long time, she's probably changed"
"It's not Robin."
"Well Bloss, she's missing, along with Butch, Mojo and Sedusa" I looked at Brent, whose trying to make sense os this.
"Maybe she was abducted with them" I was trying my best to not make my friend look guilty, but she had too much evidence against her.
"Or maybe she took them"
"That doesn't make sense, what's her motive?" I was slowly getting angry.
"You're her best friend, you tell us!" Brick was watching with me careful eyes. "Just like a Utonium, can't trust them" I threw the ketchup bottle at him in a quick and graceful motion.
"Where the hell is Rosalina? She's a liable suspect. Kill the rich husband, it happens all the time"
"Sedurita falls in the same category. Especially since her and my father have a history" I was taken back by what Brick yelled out. I sat back in the booth seat. I felt Brent move closer, for comfort.
"Fine there's all suspects. Brent, keeps an eye on them. I need sleep."
"I'll drive you home" Brick quickly moved out of the booth and followed me out the door.
"I don't think you should"
"Pinky, whether you like this or not, we're in it together." I sighed as I slipped into the passenger side. I knew this was going to be long night alone.
I quickly wrote this because this is my birthday weekend, I'm gonna be pretty busy so HERE YA GO :)
-Question: Who do you think caused the explosion?
