Even though he was trying to stay out of sight from the cops, Mason kept close tabs on Chloe. There were times when Chloe wasn't being watched by anyone and Mason followed her. Mason knew where she lived also, so it wasn't much trouble to know that she was home alone.
" If I'm going to go down, so are you Chloe," Mason thought," I can give the cops information that will send you up the river as well. I can tell them things that
Inside her house, Chloe was getting anxious to get out some more. Being cooped up inside was a drag. Chloe sighed and went out the door, only to look right at Mason. Chloe didn't know what to think, the man standing in front of her killed Derek then tried to kill her. Chloe tried to turn around and go back inside, but Mason grabbed her.
" Hey babe. Miss me?"
" The cops are looking for you."
Mason looked at her.
" Don't I know it and it's all because of you. Do you know why I go to Atlantic City?"
" You have a gambling problem."
" I have debts to pay which is why I robbed those banks, with the help of Derek and you. Okay, we didn't shoot anyone, but it will be still noted as a crime scene."
Chloe didn't say a word and looked away from him. She then tried to get out of his grip and scream, but Mason covered her mouth.
" You don't want to do that Chloe. Not one word. Now you are going to help me get out of this mess and keep me out of jail."
Chloe nodded her head and Mason uncovered her mouth.
" Good girl. Now, you're going to come with me."
Chloe could only think of one thing as she went out the door with Mason, he was evil, completely evil.
Meanwhile Flack was back at the station going over the evidence he gathered on Mason. He contacted someone from Atlantic City Police Department and told them that it was possible Mason was heading their way or that he could already be there. Flack got up and was about to go out the door when he saw Mac.
" This case isn't getting anywhere Mac. Chloe Donavon made her statement several times and has given us ideas on where Mason can be found, but nothing is hitting the target. Atlantic City P.D. has Mason's description and is on the lookout. They'll call if anything turns up."
Mac only nodded his head.
" Both Danny and I talked to Chloe, she seems to be okay, but scared."
" She has a reason to be. Her boyfriend apparently tried to kill her also."
Mac sat down.
" Danny believes that someone should be with her around the clock. He thinks Mason will show up to finish what he started."
Flack didn't know what to think.
" What's the deal with them two?"
" According to Danny they were just friends, maybe not even that."
Flack nodded his head.
" This is the only case that's active right now. I don't know, something tells me there's more to this girl."
" Chloe believes she's told us all she could. I also have a gut feeling that she's hiding something, out of fear of what Mason will do to her."
In the meantime, Mason wasn't going to let Chloe go.
" I have to fix this."
Chloe sat on a park bench with her knees up. Mason went up to her.
" Call him."
" Who?"
" Don't play dumb with me. That detective, I know you talk to him, I've seen you. Call him now."
" Why did you go off on Derek like that?"
" The phone call Chloe. Now."
Chloe got out her phone with her hands shaking.
" I haven't gotten all day."
Chloe was more scared then ever, but dialed Detective Taylor's number. Mac was going out of the station when he heard his phone ring.
" Taylor."
" It's Chloe. I need to talk to you. Meet me in Central Park, the north side. It's important."
Mac then heard a dial tone. Flack saw the look on his face.
" That was Chloe. Sounds like trouble," Mac said.
" Mason?"
Mac nodded his head.
" We need to do this carefully Don. If Mason has her, then we need to take action. Call Stella and Danny. Tell them to meet us in Central Park."
" I'm on it Mac."
" It's time to take this guy down."
