Night Falls for a Monster
Chapter 3- Misunderstandings and Kidnappings
Chuck followed Casey into the break room. No one was ever around Casey when he went in there, unless it was Morgan, trying to pretend to "drill" something out of him.
He spotted Casey leaning with his hand braced against the wall. Chuck spoke softly so he wouldn't startle the man and anger him further.
"Uh, Casey? Are you alright? You've never actually tried to hurt anyone here before. What exactly did the General say?" He was genuinely concerned. Casey turned and looked at him for a moment.
"How did you know I spoke to the General?" He didn't sound accusing, just tired, if not a bit miffed by Morgan's question.
"Well, Morgan said that you went over to the Orange Orange. The only times you go over there without me are when the General wants to speak with you. So I figured that's what it was." Casey nodded at Chuck's explanation.
Casey smiled to himself in his head. Chuck had them basically figured out. He could tell when things were wrong and when they were just a bit off.
"Yeah, the General told me that there was a new target that recently popped up on the radar. He's someone I've had a run-in with before. And he's relatively dangerous. Morgan's question, I thought that he'd already gotten to you. Sorry about your friend's neck." Casey turned to grab something.
"Well, now I know something's up. You never apologize for hurting, or even wanting to hurt someone." Chuck joked. "So, what does this guy want?"
The atmosphere was getting more serious by the second. Casey turned and looked Chuck dead in the face. "He wants revenge. I took someone from him that needed to be taken away." At Chuck's confused look he clarified a little bit. "His nephew killed seven people. And while he was in prison, he killed several more. He's a dangerous person, but his uncle just resurfaced and is looking to take him back, and get revenge."
Chuck visibly shuddered. "So there's no way he's getting out, right? I mean the guy that killed all those people?" Casey shook his head.
"No, but If this man gets a hold of you, we might have to take him out of prison." Casey thought about what would happen if/when that happened.
"Why!? You can't just drag someone that dangerous from prison! Isn't there a law against that or something? What's his name? Maybe I can flash on something?" Chuck was not happy about the idea of a convicted murderer running around outside of a prison.
"Sorry Chuck but there is no way I'm letting you flash on any images of what this guy has done. Either of them, I was there to witness it first hand. I've seen war hardened men puke at the mere mention of what he did to those people, men that are used to those kinds of sights." Chuck gave him a look that seemed to say I guess I don't want to see that.
Chuck looked up at the clock. "Well, come on, we better get back out there before Emmitt starts bashing on us again. You know how that's his favorite thing to do." He rolled his eyes and moved out of the room.
Casey watched him leave. As he left the room he saw Chuck near the games and watched as Morgan ran up to him. Casey saw Chuck's facial expression change from a simple frown to a look of worry.
Chuck made his way back over to Casey. "Casey, I think we have a problem. Morgan said that he was just over at the Orange Orange, and Sarah's not there, it's closed up early." He looked out the front window's towards the small yogurt shop.
"Let's go check it out. She wouldn't just leave without saying anything. She would have at least called." Casey grabbed his phone and tried to call Sarah, she wasn't answering her phone. "We'll have to go over there."
When the two of them reached the shop, Casey noticed the note on the door that read, "Family Emergency, Closed until further notice." Casey used his spare key to open the door and the two of them went down into the Castle.
"Sarah? Are you down here?" Chuck tentatively asked before Casey shushed him. Casey stalked down the stairs with his gun drawn. He looked around but found nothing out of the ordinary. He turned on the computer screen that showed the camera's upstairs to see what happened to Sarah.
As Casey thought, he watched as a man with a hooded jacket walked into the store, Sarah looked nervous at him sulking around. The man walked up to her and said something to her, pulling a gun out and placing it on the counter. Casey glared at the screen.
The man said something to Sarah and she turned to find paper, probably to put up the sign on the door. Casey also watched as she placed something under the counter up in the shop. Sarah tapped the note to the door of the shop and she left with the man, who stopped to look up at the camera and smirk.
Casey couldn't see the man's face from the nose up, but he could see a white/silver beard and tanned skin. He instantly knew that it was Douglas Wilson. He didn't go after the asset. He went after my partner. That bastard. Casey thought to himself as he yelled up at Chuck who was looking around for any sign that Sarah might have left in the Castle.
"Chuck, we have a problem. He wasn't after you, he was after Sarah." Chuck froze.
"What? What does he want with Sarah!? She doesn't have anything to do with this!" Chuck practically yelled out.
"Chuck, calm down, he may have taken her, but I promise you she'll be fine. He knows that I know he took her, and he also knows that I know what he wants." Casey looked at the floor and grimaced. "I'll have to get him out."
"Casey, you can't just take that guy out of jail! He's a murderer! A killer, you said it yourself, he killed more than seven people! Why can't we just find him and sneak in and take Sarah back?" Chuck was freaking out now. His breathing was escalating and he was starting to sweat.
"Chuck, calm down and listen to me. This guy is not someone we can easily find, and he's not exactly one to be fooled so well. He wants his nephew back, and I'm going to have to retrieve him." Casey managed to pick Chuck up and he almost forcefully had to drag him up the stairs back to the shop.
Chuck pulled away from him and sat in one of the chairs as Casey searched around the counter for whatever it was that Sarah had left for them. He found a small folded up piece of paper that had information on it.
"Casey, keep Chuck safe. Cover up for me, my father is sick in the hospital and I needed to go take care of him. This man seems to be after something that you can give him. He said something about a nephew. He said he wouldn't hurt me as long as he gets what he wants. I don't know what's going to happen, just keep Chuck safe."
Casey read the letter again. "Chuck, we've got a cover story. Her father's sick in the hospital and she needed to go take care of him. And now we've got a trip to make."
Casey led the two of them back to the Buy More. Chuck was still frustrated and upset. He worried about Sarah and what this strange man was going to do if he didn't get this man that he wanted from jail.
"Casey, don't lie to me, I wanna know who these guys are, and why is it so important to get the other out of jail?" Chuck wanted an answer. He wanted to know why someone would steal Sarah. He wasn't sure if he could trust what Casey told him, so he had to tell him names, something to get him to flash.
Casey looked around as they entered the Buy More. Morgan was looking for Chuck to tell him why Sarah was missing.
"Listen, Chuck, you go and tell your little hobbit friend over there Sarah's cover story, and then meet me in the break room." Casey moved off as Morgan moved it.
Chuck glared after him as Morgan began barraging him with questions.
"Hey, Chuck, where's Sarah? I was kinda worried about what happened when I saw she wasn't in the shop." Chuck sighed.
"It's fine, I'm a little worried myself, and apparently her father was sent to the hospital. He's sick, at least that's what she left in a note. Said she had to leave immediately." Chuck feigned being the worried boyfriend, but he also had to keep that touch of 'It's my girlfriend's dad, I'm worried, but he probably hates me anyway' tone.
"Ahh, well don't worry, I'm sure that he'll be fine, and she'll be back sooner or later." Chuck sighed.
I can only hope that it's sooner rather than later. And I hope she's okay.

Author's Note: I worked on this today, I deleted most of it actually, I had Chuck yelling at Casey, and cops were involved, but it felt like that was too much, so instead I just cut them out altogether. It made too much of a scene. It's shorter than it was a few hours ago, but thats okay, it's now moving in a better direction than it was before. I'll have the rest of the chapters up here shortly.
Thank you all for your lovely reviews, it's nice to know that people enjoy reading this. At least now I don't feel the need to scrap it. And in a few chapters we're actually gonna meet the killer person. Can you wait? Maybe, Maybe not. Either way, it's gonna be awesome. ... Maybe...
So, throw some more happy reviews at me, I love them, and please, no flames, they are a waste of my time and yours, [I promise, they really are a waste of time, so don't even bother]. Constructive criticism however is alright.
Untill the next update, good day, or night.
