Marcus:
"So, where are they?" James growled into the phone.
"I'm searching! I know they are staying at a hotel in California…I just do now where!" I snapped, typing into the laptop on my desk.
"Well, hurry! Didn't you say Madison and Jason are on their way back?" Victoria said, in the background of the phone.
"Yes! But, all of you rushing me in my ear isn't helping the cause!" I remarked, logging into the precinct's system.
I typed in the witnesses' names to find out where they were relocated to.
"Los Angeles, California!" I announced, searching through the logs.
I wanted to find more specific information on where exactly they were staying. I didn't want to ask Madison or Jason because they already believed that someone in this precinct who's working on the case with us is a snitch. I just want to know do they think it's me.
"New York's police department is so ridiculous!" Laurent declared, completely irritated over the phone.
"HEY! I still work for this department!" I proclaimed, logging out of the system.
"Well, it was stupid of the department to send three pathetic girls who witnessed one of the most notorious crimes this year to one of the most popular cities in California! That's the first place we were going to look!" Laurent asserted, as I noticed through the glass door Madison and Jason enter the precinct.
"Madison and Jason are coming into my office because we have a meeting so I have to go, but before I go I have one more thing to tell you all. Rosalie stayed at the hospital." I informed them, watching as Madison and Jason neared my office.
"Alone?" James questioned, as I could hear the grin through the phone.
"I don't know. All I do know is Alice and Isabella were taken to a hotel in Los Angeles. Most likely she's alone because I believe they feel the hospital staff can watch after her." I explained, before quickly hanging up as Madison and Jason entered my office.
"What were you doing?" Madison asked, suspiciously.
"Just catching up on some unfinished cases." I lied, shutting down my laptop quickly.
"We think we have a snitch in our midst." Jason started, as Madison's head quickly whipped in his direction.
"Why do you think that?" I wondered, propping my feet up onto my desk.
"Because every change of plans and ideas is told. They're finding out everything. Besides all of the evidence we had in the lab is gone. How is that possible? No one is allowed to go inside the lab unless they have the proper identification." Madison answered, resting her head in her hands.
I felt my phone vibrate and looked quickly down at the message that I received from Laurent.
Get rid of Jasper, Emmett, and Edward.
"Maybe we should order Jasper, Emmett, and Edward back to New York." I said, sliding my feet off of the desk.
"That's taking a huge risk." Madison whispered, looking at her daughters.
"When it comes to the safety of your daughters…we have to take those risks." I replied, resting my hand on her shoulder.
"Alright…we'll make the call." Jason responded, grabbing his wife's hand before quickly rushing out of my office.
I grabbed my cell phone and wrote a quick text in response.
The plan is in action. Take those girls out before everything goes downhill.
Review:
Sorry for the long wait. This chapter is more of a filler until I can get the next one out. I'm going to try to update everyday so I can finish this story by the 16th of February.
