Thanks for the reviews! I know I haven't updated in over a month and I'm really sorry. I'll spare you guys with the excuses so just enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything…duh :P
Kellie POV
I glance at the screen. I cannot stand that pathetic Janis. Because of her, I am guaranteed another scold from mother. Who told that girl to capture Isabel's daughter? All mother said was to take the Cahill and not a single note on Natalie.
However, I must give Ian some credit. Choking the miserable girl like that? I'll owe him something.
I take a sip of coffee. The girl's face was turning purple.
I sigh. On my computer I type, Ryan Anderson. I turn on a microphone and wait for a response.
"What?" says a gruff voice with an English accent.
"Watch that mouth," I say threateningly. "Sophia Watson has some trouble. I want you to take the bodies of both the Kabras and the Cahill and bring them outside to the back. There is truck waiting there. And bring some natol liquid melatonin."
"Whatever," he said. I raised my eyes; I haven't heard him speak his regular American accent in a while. "I'll do it later."
"Now. You will go there quickly unless you want to watch your family gone before your eyes. I cannot say I won't enjoy watching those thickheaded people-"
"Shut up! I'm going now!" He hung up. Hamilton Holt hung up. Can you believe that Tomas? He was giving me attitude.
I make a call to Jordan in England.
"Hel-"
"Drive that van of yours to the subject's school and get there by ten minutes. Park in front of the back."
"Now?" he asks with a stupid tone.
"Yes 'now'. There is a reason why you are assigned to work in that school. I want you to drive Sophia Watson, Ryan Anderson, and the bodies of the subject and the Kabra children." I hung up.
I hate the idiocy infecting all the people of the world. Later in mother's world, or my world, none of this will happen. My mother is a fool. She actually thinks she can become a dictator at such age. No, this world needs an appropriate leader, me. I smile lightly.
"Kellie? Why haven't you answered me? Reports?"
I straighten my face as I focus on the present. I look at my mother directly at the eye. "The young Janus girl, Sophia Watson, is failing quite sadly. She, apparently, is being disobedient and injected natol liquid melatonin to Isabel Kabra's children. The brother found the Janus and discovered the bodies. I sent Hamilton to help her. Therefore, expect three bodies tomorrow at our meeting with Isabel Kabra when you reach London."
"And why did you allow this to happen?" I did not reply. Mother inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly. "That girl will regret of her actions. Send her here tomorrow with the Cahill."
She grabbed her files and left without another command. She never appreciates my work. When the time comes, people like her with cease to exist. I will only allow those who deserve to live on this Earth. Those who have done something good like my father.
Hamilton POV
Sophia Watson. She is probably more stupid than a Tomas, and that is saying a lot. I'm even taking away my Tomas pride to say that. It is so ridiculous. I'm being more like a Janus, pretending to be some British kid.
I laugh bitterly. Amy actually believed me, but not enough to remember about our little tour. Ryan Anderson? Such a stupid name…I don't even know why I picked it. I hate my stupid job, but I have to do it for my family. I convinced them to come to England about some sports thing, but they have no idea about what I'm doing.
Sophia was practically turning purple. I swear. And you should see that face on Ian Kabra. I walked closer to them without a sound. So ninja like Dan right? Just when I was behind him, I got a better look of his face. It was full of anger. I gave a laugh.
There should be a T.V. show on the Cahills or something. It would be a hilarious comedy.
He released Sophia. She fell to the floor and coughed violently. I've never thought of Ian as strong, but seeing Sophia like that was a surprise.
Ian's face turned my direction. Just like that I punched his face and knocked him out. Screw that poison stuff. I'm not a Lucian. This was way easier. I carried his body and put it on the cart.
"Why are you here?" Sophia's voice was cracked as she tried to breathe normally.
"Because you're weak so I've came to help?" I said in an agitated voice.
"I do not need help!"
"Cool. Explain how you're on the ground, almost suffocated because of Kabra. Next time I'll wait longer so you'll to appreciate me."
She had a scowling expression on her face. "Whatever."
I looked at her sitting there. "Dude, what are you doing? Stop sitting there like an idiot and help me bring these bodies to the Director."
She stood up and walk to my side. We pushed the cart together to the back of the school.
"Just so you know, you're so screwed."
"Why would I be-"
"Because you failed your mission," I told her. I don't know why, but I was really happy about it. Just seeing her made me want to punch someone.
"Well I hope the punishment will not be so severe."
I chuckled. "My ass. Like the Director won't kill you."
She said nothing. She was probably thinking about what kind of beating she was entering. I guess I kind of feel bad for her, but her fault, her problem.
We reach the back. A dark truck was parked.
Jordan stood in front of it smoking a cigar. "There you are."
"Yeah. The bodies are in here." I point at the cart.
We carelessly throw the bodies into the truck. I get on the truck with Sophia and Jordan starts driving.
"Halt!" I look at the mirror reflecting the back. The school's guards were chasing after us. A car was speeding towards us with other guards inside.
Jordan started speeding faster. "Damn guards."
"Really?" I say. "Now we're going to be seen."
Sophia sighed. "Let's play a game. Whoever throws the most darts at the guards win?"
I smile. "Sure."
We get some tiny darts on the truck and start throwing it at them. It was like a shooting game on Xbox. I have to admit, Sophia's good. When they were all down, she screamed victory.
Jordan stopped the car. We got out and I opened the back of the truck. Amy and Natalie were still unconscious. On the other hand, Ian was standing with a confused face.
I grabbed him I slapped him on the face.
"What the hell was that? Where am I?
Sophia came out the truck. She looked at Ian and grabbed his neck. Her hands squeezed his neck as strong as she could.
"We don't want him dead, idiot. And you're not making him suffer that much with that weak hand."
"Shut up." She released him.
I took out an injector and gave him a little of that natol stuff. We brought the bodies to the meeting area and tied their arms, wrists, knees, and ankles. Sophia duck tapped their mouths. We waited for the Director to come. She wasn't going to be here in hours.
"What do you think the Director will do to me? I mean, I had almost gotten caught.
"Scream at you probably. Then maybe kill you?" I shrug.
Her face was like a statue. She eyes were widened with fear.
"Just relax and deal with it. Not my problem."
"But she threatened all of us that if we fail the slightest bit we will die. And to clarify die, I mean to never breathe again!"
I sigh. "I think I know what it means."
"Well I don't want to die." Said says.
I shrug. I don't want to be involved with anything. I'm doing everything I can here to protect my family. And at the end, I'll be rewarded with power. Nothing will interfere with that.
We waited hours. Finally, Jordan alerted us that the Director was here.
Heels clicked. My heart started beating faster. I've done nothing wrong, but being in the same room as the Director and Kellie made me paranoid. Every moment I'm there with them makes me feel like I'm going to be punished.
Dan POV
My eyes opened. Every inch I moved ached.
"Dan! What are you doing?" Nellie took off her earphones and looked at me sharply.
"I'm getting this bad feeling. It's like I know Amy's in trouble or something."
"Kid, I'm pretty sure she's okay."
I shook my head. "I'm serious. She's not. We have to go find her."
I tried to get up, but I fell down.
"You're going to hurt yourself even more. Just wait two more days. Maybe we'll get you out early."
"No, we have to go now!"
"Amy's fine. I just talked to her last night. Just relax."
"Nellie, I know I joke a lot, but we really have to go!" I forced myself up, trying not to fall back. The pain was crazy. It was like someone punching my back continuously while a bus was weighing on my chest.
I groaned. Nellie rushed towards me. "Stop it! You can't go yet!"
I pushed her and got on my feet, but suddenly, I felt dizzy. It was like the walls were coming closer trying to flatten me. Suddenly everything turned black.
When I woke up, I sat up with no pain at all. Weird.
In the room, Nellie slept on a chair with her iPod. I got off the hospital bed and looked around for my shoes. I looked for a bag. There has to be some of my clean clothes somewhere. After a few minutes, I found a gym bag with a T-shirt and shorts inside under Nellie's chair. Really? This isn't really the season to be wearing shorts in 50degree weather. I changed myself and got ready to leave.
"Hey," I said to the cell phone. "Can you get me the old man on the phone?"
"Who?" asked the receiver. "Hold on, you are supposed to be at the hospital!"
"Mr. McIntyre, get Uncle Fiske on the phone!"
"Dan, you have to back to the hospital. Where is Nellie?"
"Stop it! You need to let me talk to Uncle Fiske," I shouted. Can't he see that it's important?
"Well, there is a problem. He has gone missing. We-"
"Missing? Where is he?" Uncle Fiske is missing? That's like a load of garbage. I mean, yeah there are lots of reasons to take him, but how? It's not like someone can just kidnap him under the protection of the Madrigals.
"I don't know. But the Vespers are behind it."
Of course it's because of the Vespers. It's always them, right? Then, I realized that Amy might be there. My instincts are telling me that. My anger rose. "They probably have my sister!"
"How can you say that? She is safe at the school in-"I hung up on him. I have to go help her. I ran back to my hospital room. Nellie was still asleep but I shook her up.
"Wha'? Dan? What are you doing?" She rubbed her eyes.
I grab her hand out of the room. "We're going to England."
"Dan, go back to your bed. I'm tired."
I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the door of the room. I looked for around for security and nurses. None of them were watching us. I grabbed Nellie's hand and rushed out of the hospital.
"Dan! Stop!" She struggled to get out of my grip.
I called a taxi and shoved Nellie into it. "We're going to the airport!"
"No, we're not!" Nellie screamed. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Hurry up! Start driving!" I told the driver. The driver nodded and started for the airport.
Nellie widened her eyes. "Why are you listening to the kid? Dan, what's with you?"
"I told you about Amy and we're going to help her."
"But you're still weak. You can't go! Driver stop!" I stuffed my hand to her mouth.
"Don't! Keep going!"
Nellie glared at me and removed my hand. "Fine, we're going to England. Have you thought about how to find Amy?"
I'm glad my begging for reviews worked…but I'm going to beg again. See that funny looking button there? Click it. In doing so, you just might make someone walking on this same Earth happier. ;D
