Here we go, chapter three coming your way!!!
Liz found herself walking up the street towards Remy's house. She figured that maybe he could help her figure out this case, seeming how her father obviously had a date of some kind.
She knocked on the was to the door in a second. she looked exhausted.
"Oh Liz..." She said, yawning, "Wasn't expecting you." She said, inviting Liz inside.
"Yeah, well, I need Remy's help with something."
"Sorry hon, he's working double shift down at the docks." Said Olivia, rubbing her eyes.
"Oh, okay then, I'll head down that way." Said Liz, starting to walk out the door.
"No, Liz!!! Maybe I can help. What happened?" Asked Olivia.
"Well, John's been kidnapped. We don't have any witnesses whatsoever. Ginger just showed up and said that John had just vanished out of nowhere."
"Okay then. What's the plan..." Said Olivia, waiting for Liz to say something.
"I haven't the slightest clue. All I know is that I was expecting Remy to come up with one. My first thought was to look for clues at the restaurant where they were eating, but then I realized that I had forgotten to ask ginger where they were, so I was going to ask Remy where he was going to take me and start there." Said Liz.
"Oh, I see." Said Olivia. "Well, I can't help ya there. Maybe we should just forget it and wait to see what tomorrow brings." Olivia added.
"That's exactly what dad said. I'm not going to stand by and let John get killed because I was just six hours late." Said Liz.
"It wouldn't be your fault. Come on, Liz. You look exhausted. You can sleep in my room if you'd like." Said Olivia.
"Where will you sleep." Asked Liz.
"Well, I've gotten into a custom of sleeping in dad's room. It helps me feel closer to him. We've just been saving my old room now as a guest room or, you know, maybe a future nursery for when you two get married." Said Olivia.
"when will that be, anyways?" Asked Olivia.
"We'll, me and Remy were very much hoping three months from now in June or July." Said Liz, revealing that they had it all planned out.
"Oh, well, congrats. Anyways, help yourself to anything and I hope you like the room." Said Olivia.
"You know, this really isn't neccesary, I have a perfectly good bed at home." Said Liz.
"Yes, but you look very tired. I don't think you were going to get anywhere with this case tonight anyway." Said Olivia, lighting a candle, and trying to get things organized in the room for Liz.
"Well, that should be it. If you need anything, just holler." Said Olivia.
"Thanks Olivia." Said Liz. And soon, she drifted off into a deep sleep.
"Elizabeth." Came a voice through the mist. Liz looked around, carefully. She felt fear, adrenaline and excitement all mixed together in one.
"Elizabeth." Came the voice again. She saw a tail twitch, and saw two red eyes peering down at her from the mist.
"Who are you?" She asked, looking in wonder. The figure stepped from the shadows, revealing the rat.
"Elizabeth."
"Ratigan. What do you want." Said Liz, accusingly.
"Oh, Elizabeth. I'm not the one you should have been worrying about."
"Elizabeth!" The voice shook her awake. She looked up to see Olivia, eyes swelling.
"Liz, Remy was just reported taken on duty." Said Olivia, motioning toward the guard standing at the door.
"what happened?" Asked Liz, sitting up and slipping on her shoes before walking over and shaking hands with the guard.
"Well, Young Remy Flaversham was reported kidnapped at about nine thirty to ten. He just seemed to vanish out of thin air." Said the guard.
"So what, like people are just vanishing out of thin air, or being taken away?" Said Liz.
"What are you talking about?" Asked the guard.
"Well, about seven o'clock this evening, a girl who goes to my school said that her boyfriend just disappeared." said Liz. "I have a hunch that this is the same suspect." She added.
"We have to tell your father." Said Olivia.
"Well, good luck to you ladies. While you get the famous detective, I will take five more of my men with me to try to find the two missing young mice." Said the guard, leaving the house.
"So, do you think Basil is worried about you?" Asked Olivia.
"Most likely, no. He knows that if I'm doing a case, I'll be with Remy or you, that is if he's too occupied with his "girlfriend"" Said Liz.
"You know Liz. She seems very nice. It was hard for me too, after my mother died, to accept the fact that my father was getting lonely, but I soon realized that maybe I could accept a new mother too." Said Olivia, trying to make a point.
"No one in this world could ever replace my mom." Said Liz, walking out the door. "I'll be back." Said Liz, as she scurried away towards Bakerstreet.
"What the hell!" She said, as she looked at the debris lying around at the front door. The two windows were shattered, and the curtains were ripped. The door was completely in a million pieces.
"What happened?"
Alright, so it looks like Liz has one hell of a mystery on her hands. Where's her father, her fiancee, and John? What about Olivia? will she be able to help Liz find the missing people? R&R please.
