Chapter three: A bomb In a package
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning before the sun was up, someone was knocking on his door.
"Kyle?" called Rosa.
Kyle looked at the clock only an hour pasted by the time he was on the Roof to the time he got a minuet of sleep.
"Your manger, paper work time."
"No!" Kyle put his pillow over his head, "I'm not going!"
He could hear Rosa get the extra keys, "I'm coming in!"
"No!" Kyle yowled.
"Your acting like a child."
Rosa came in and crossed her arms because he was curled in blanket, "Dunning always did paper work at this time!"
"That's why he died!" Kyle lift up his blanket just to say that.
"He didn't die because he stayed up to do work!" Rosa pulled off the blanket.
"Did you do this to your son?" Kyle sat up, "Where's my coffee then?"
"Downstairs with Louis."
"…Meaning that he drinking it." asked Kyle fixing his bed.
"You got it, I said 'this is Kyle's don't touch', then I walk to the stairs and I saw him take a sip."
"I'll get more, what brand of coffee?"
Rosa crossed her arms, "The only kind of coffee that Dunning would buy, "America's most disgusting coffee!"
A man after my own heart. Kyle smiled at the thought of the coffee.
"Then again, someone like you would drink that awful stuff!"
"Yeah." He walked to the door, "We been here long enough, lets go down and you tell me what my work is!"
"Your work is simple, you have to talk to me and Louis about the supplies, and when were done, you go to town and buy the supplies."
"You should have told me that when I first came!"
"I didn't think you would take your job seriously once you found out you had to buy supplies."
"I don't mind going to the city, but supplies? Do we really need them now?"
"That's why we talk to Louis about the bar."
"Booze? I'm in." Kyle followed her downstairs.
Rosa sighed and found Louis in the office drinking coffee.
"Good morning ya'all." said Louis.
"…" Kyle sighed, "My coffee."
"Louis get off the manager's chair." Rosa put her hand to her hip.
"Louis?" Kyle noticed he looked tense.
"What's wrong?" asked Rosa.
"…" Louis looked at them.
"Louis tell Rosa." Rosa leaned over a little, "Kyle what do you think?"
"I think it has something to do with this." Kyle lifted a box that was on the counter.
Louis nodded.
"What is it?" Rosa looked in and gasped.
"A bomb." Kyle looked in again, "I guess motion sensitive. So as long as Louis sits there the bomb won't go off. I guess this was the bomb in the hotel."
"What? Your joking! I can't stay here forever! What if I need to use the bathroom?"
"Hold it." Kyle laughed to himself.
Rosa crossed her arms, "This must be a joke, you to planned this on old Rosa!"
"No joke, this is a real bomb. We all could leave the hotel and Louis could then stand up, killing himself only, wouldn't that be brave?"
"But being so calm about this!" Rosa was frantic.
"Calm down!" Kyle slapped her.
Louis gasped as Rosa held her cheek.
"I'm calm." Rosa looked down.
"Sorry about that, but if someone heard about this. I would be out of business."
"We know." said Louis and Rosa.
"Louis will stay on the chair, pretending to be me, so if anyone asks he'll say he's taking over."
"What will you do?" asked Rosa.
"I'll go to town, get the stuff and ask some of connections about bombs."
"Ok, sounds easy, I don't mind playing boss… I just don't want to die." Louis sighed and leaned on the chair.
"I wouldn't lean on a chair that is tied to a bomb." Kyle picked up his car keys and walked to the Bar door.
"What do I do?" asked Rosa.
"Stay here with Louis, and make sure none of the guests panic."
"Ok." Rosa nods and turns away, "I'll get the food ready for breakfast."
Kyle nods, "I'll be back soon." as he was going out the door he called back, "Louis don't move!"
"Like I have a choice!" called Louis. Louis made his self comfortable.
Kyle was walking down the hall when he heard a door creak. He looked up and saw Melissa walking toward him.
Kyle gave a start. "What are you doing here?"
"Hello mister Hyde. My dad is still asleep, but I'm hungry, so I got up to get breakfast."
"Melissa!" Kyle looked at the restaurant door and back at her. I can't let her know about the bomb! I have to do something!
While Kyle was in thought, Melissa was walking past him to the door.
Kyle ran over and put his arm on her shoulders, "Melissa, how would you like to go to the city with me?"
She tilted her head, "The city?"
"Yeah, the city. We need supplies, and I thought it would be good for you to get out of this hotel for a while!"
"What about breakfast?"
"I'll get you ice cream!" Kyle added in quickly.
She thought about it and nodded.
That's good, now she won't know about the bomb in the restaurant. "Lets go now."
They were in the driving down the open road to the city, now and then Kyle would check both mirrors, until Melissa notices.
"What's wrong mister Hyde?"
Kyle was busy looking the mirror to hear, "What did you say?"
"I asked why you looked in the mirror so much?"
"I'm making sure I don't hear sirens."
"You don't need mirror to hear a siren."
Kyle leaned back and his chair and sighed, "Say kid, have you ever heard the legend of big-shot?"
"No." said Melissa, "Could you tell me?"
Kyle closed his eyes briefly, remembering his first encounter with big-shot.
Kyle looked around once more, "There's a legend in these parts kid, of a cop."
"A cop?" Melissa asked.
Kyle nodded. "A cop called Big Shot. He will always appear out of nowhere… almost like a ghost-"
Melissa hugged her seat belt.
"-And the rumor has it that he will pull over anyone for any law that he can get you in trouble for. It goes like you have to be careful not to invoke the wrath of Big Shot or…" Kyle cut himself off, looking into the mirror once again.
Melissa looked around and asked again, "Or?"
Kyle looked to Melissa, "Or he will haunt you forever."
"Oh no! Will he haunt us mister? Huh, will he?" Melissa asked, looking around.
Geez, I hope not. Kyle looked back to the road. "Nah…we didn't do anything wrong… yet. Heres is the city." Kyle pulled into the road that led into the city.
In the city.
Loading the supplies into the car, Melissa was eating ice cream while talking to Kyle contact.
All of these years, I almost forgot of Big Shot…
Kyle closed his eyes and thought of all the times Big Shot pulled him over.
There was that time: Kyle was driving down route 36 to get home when he heard sirens, "What is this?"
A navy blue car pulled up behind him.
Isn't that Big Shot's car? Kyle waited while the cop came out and walked over.
Kyle waited a second when the cop tapped the window.
When he unrolled the window the cop asked for "License and registration."
It is Big shot… "I wasn't speeding. We're both on the force, why pulled me over?"
"Because. Now License and registration." he said it all with a straight face.
"I need a reason." Kyle crossed his arms.
"I'll give you tickets for that."
I never knew the reason why… The other time he pulled me over:
Kyle was in his car driving to work when the way he usually took was block, "That's weird."
So he had to go through a store parking lot.
"I haven't been here in awhile…" Kyle saw a road that lead to the office.
He looked around for any cars and drove that way, as he did he saw a car go down the lane he was going, but the opposite way. Which only made one thing he saw going the wrong.
"Oh man!" Kyle looked at the car that went past him, as he reached the end a 'one way' sign was placed were no one could see if until they realized they went the wrong way.
"…" Kyle saw Big Shot waited for him at the end of the road.
"License and registration, please." He smiled evilly, "You must have a hangover or something…anyone would know this is a one way area."
"…" Kyle just took the ticket.
Big Shot smiled again and drove away.
I never knew how the sign got there…
Melissa interrupted his thought, "Kyle!"
Kyle jumped and looked at her, "Wha?"
"You almost dozed off. Your friend just said good bye and I help load a few things."
"That's good."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Kyle said, slamming the trunk closed. "Let's go kid."
On the drive back, Kyle was only half-paying attention to Melissa chatting away about something. His mind was on Big Shot.
Could he really have forgotten all about me? Big shot was never one to let you go so easily…
"--and then he said that one day he might show me the zoo! Can you believe it-?" Melissa's voice said in the background.
A car passed them on the road, Kyle jumped. Oh…it was a normal car. He could relax again.
"That's nice." Kyle said, bringing his attention back to the real world.
"- Then mom said-" Melissa continue to talk.
Kyle sighed now that his thought were on the bomb, his contact old him find another source, he said wires were one thing a bomb could be hooked to. I'm not the bomb squad, what do I know of bombs?
"Kyle…" Melissa looked up.
"What?"
"We past Hotel Dusk."
He hit the brakes and made a U turn, "I knew that!"
Melissa shook her head, "Old people."
Kyle shook his head, "Kids."
"So back at the city, it was fun."
Kyle took a quick glance at her while pulling the car into the Dusk parking lot.
"What did your friend do tell you at the city?"
"We're here, lets go."
Melissa sighed and followed, "Hello Rosa!"
Rosa came of waving, "Hello Melissa."
"Now Melissa go up stairs." Kyle pointed to the second floor, "Go."
Melissa sighed and went inside.
Kyle looked at Rosa, "So what happen?"
"Louis been sitting on the chair, I cleaned, no one knows about the… You know."
"Yeah, I was told that the bomb may have something connected to it, wires or other."
"Wires? The boiler room?" Rosa asked unloaded some things.
"That's what they said, so I don't care about Louis, so well load this stuff up and help Louis."
"…Ok" Rosa nodded.
In the store room they finished the last pack.
"That's all? I don't care if the bar isn't open I'm getting booze! That was back breaking!"
"Oh stop it!" Rosa crossed her arms, "We can both relax now, the job is done, we can go."
They both walked to the door, but when Rosa tried to open the door, it wouldn't open.
"What now?" Kyle groaned.
"It must be the new lock that Louis put… I told him to do it so no one could break in…"
"That's great, now were stuck!"
"Not necessarily, I hear foot steps." Rosa smiled.
"So were not doomed after all, well if we were, there whiskey." Kyle held up a bottle.
"That's suppose to be in the cellar, Louis must have been sneaky booze."
The door opened. Kyle and Rosa looked up, "Louis!"
Louis was standing in the door way.
