Jack led the other's down the street and they stopped outside the door of number 56. They exchanged look's and Seann banged on the door loudly. The door opened and they were met with the bloodshot eye's of Charlie. His eye's widened in fear at the people before him and he quickly tried to close the door.
"Charlie you son of a bitch, don't even try it," Jack said pushing at the door. Charlie pushed against the other side hard and nearly got it closed if it hadn't been for the other three throwing themselves at the door. They managed to keep it open but they froze when the cry of a baby reached their ear's. Charlie took their shock as an oppertunity to shut the door and he threw himself against it and sent the four friend's nearly tumbling down the steps.
"He has the baby for sure," Chloe sighed and sat down on the steps.
"How are we gonna get him back ?" Kate asked.
"We could always use our original plan," Seann suggested.
"The one we thought up in the car ?" Jack said and Seann nodded.
"So we break in tonight and take back the baby," Kate said and they all quietly nodded.
"Well we're gonna need thing's like rope and a baby seat for the car," Chloe suggested.
"Why rope ?" Seann asked and they looked around to Chloe.
"Well if we're going into that house through a window then we're gonna need rope to get back down with a baby," she explained.
"And black clothes," Seann said.
"And God know's what else. I feel ridiculous. It sound's like we're planning a robbery," Jack said and frustratedly kicked a rock down the steps.
"I know hunnie but we're getting Claire's baby back," Kate calmed him.
"Jack, we're gonna need to take the license plate off your car too," Chloe said and Jack nodded.
"Let's go shopping," Seann said and they took off in the car.
At three o'clock in the morning they parked down the street and four black clad figure's quietly padded down the alley way behind the house. "You got it ?" Jack asked Chloe and she nodded.
"The rope's in my bag," she whispered and they came to the wall behind number 56.
"Who's going over first ?" Kate asked in hushed voice.
"I'll go and look around," Chloe volenteered. Seann boosted her over and she was quickly over the wall. A few second's later she called that it was fine and they were all over in a matter of minutes.
"What room do you reckon it is ?" Seann asked and they looked between the two window's.
"That one has a little blue star in it, so it must be that one," Jack said, pointing to the right window.
"I've got the back door open," Kate said and they looked around.
"Good we won't have to climb back over that wall," Seann said.
"I'll go up first, tie the rope and see if we have the right bedroom. Kate if I do then you'll follow me and get Aaron. I'll lower you down with the baby and you guy's will wait for me," Chloe said and they all nodded. "Little help here guy's ?" she said and Jack and Seann went forward, helping her up to the window. Chloe gripped onto the ledge and pulled herself up slightly, just enough to see into the room. Sure enough there was a crib and a mobile in the corner. She attached the rope to the drain and picked at the latch on the window.
"Is it his room ?" Jack whispered up.
"Yeah but I can't get the damn latch undone," Chloe said back. A little click could be heard and Chloe sent down the signal for Kate.
"Kate be careful babe," Jack said, kissing her.
"I'll be fine, don't worry," she replied and started to climb the rope. When she reached the window Chloe helped her inside and they walked silently to the crib and looked in. Little Aaron was sound asleep, gurgling in his dreams.
"Come on," Chloe said and Kate scooped the baby up in her arms. Aaron let out a little cry and the girls froze. They listened for any noise coming from the bedroom next door but none could be heard. They sighed in relief, sneaking back to the window. Kate looked out and could see Jack and Seann at the bottom. She gave a thumbs up and the boy's high fived. Kate slowly made her way down the rope, making sure not to nudge the baby. She hopped down to the ground and was greeted with hug's from the boy's. Kate gave the baby to Seann and they waited for Chloe. Suddenly a crash echoed from the room and the light from the left bedroom came on. The three panicked and looked frantically for Chloe. She appeared at the window just as voices could be heard.
Chloe looked around at the opening door and could only think of one thing to do. Jump.
Fortunatly the fate's were looking down on her that day and as she jumped, she fell directly onto a large patch of grass. The light in Aaron's room came on and a woman could be heard screaming 'The baby's gone !'. They looked at each other panicked and made a mad dash with the child through the alley way door, speeding down the alley and down the street to the car. Siren's could be heard drawing nearer and they looked panicked. The rammed into the car, careful to strap Aaron in.
"Start the fucking car !" Seann said desperatly to Jack.
"I can't find my key's !" he said.
"Shit, now what ?" Kate said.
"Move over children," Chloe said and after a few second's the radio came on.
"You did it !" Jack shouted happily and he put the car into gear and they drove into the darkness. Siren's could be heard behind them and Chloe turned.
"They're on our tail ! Drive faster," she yelled and Jack sped up, sharply turning. He turned again and once again.
"Where the hell are you going ?" Seann yelled as he drove into an alley way and having found his key's, jammed them in and turned off the light's.
"Are you crazy !" Kate said.
"Shh, they'll drive right by us," Jack grinned and sure enough about two minute's later, three police cars sped past the alley, not sparing it a second glance.
"Your a freakin genius ! If I was single I'd kiss you," Chloe said and Seann nudged her. "I said if sweetie."
"Well I am going to kiss you," Kate said and leant over, her lips brushing over his. A soft moan from Aaron made them break apart.
"Shall we ?" Seann said, a grin plastered on his face.
"We shall," Chloe said and Jack started the car.
They drove into the darkness without a single glance back.
