Chapter 14: A Brother's Story Pt. 2

Scorpius P.O.V.

"I know, I know…. Here's what happened…." Barry uttered as he ran a hand through his light hair.

"It all started 20 years ago, that's when things began to change. On the night our father died to be exact. Lytle and my dad had been in a fight. Lytle wanted to bring two friends to our beach house for the weekend. My dad refused saying that it was for family bonding . Lytle was real upset and ran to the roof, he always went to the roof when he was upset; my dad let him stew for a while, but eventually he went to talk to him. Lytle had always been his favorite, and he wanted to make amends." Barry said nervously, sneering by the time he reached the end. "He even gave Lytle his name for a middle name, Giselmaere. So, my father went upstairs to talk to Lytle. After about half an hour I heard shouting and a high-pitched yell and a thump. My mother ran outside, but I ran upstairs. I found Lytle leaning over the side of the roof with a sick smile on his face. I looked at him and he just stared right back with dead, unfeeling eyes."

Barry took some deep breaths, recalling the horrible memory and he looked up at me with the same, dead, unfeeling eyes he had explained Lytle to have. "Go on." James prompted.

"I didn't say a word because no one would believe that Lytle the perfect child would ever do that. But I knew, I always kept that in the back of my mind. He did it. This was only the beginning, though. Five years ago when he kidnapped the first victim, Patrick Jenderson, he came running to me. Now, Patrick ended up dying, but Lytle did get a hefty ransom for him. He was luckier than some. At the time I was living in the outskirts of London with my wife and three-month-old baby. I had heard a child had been kidnapped, but I hadn't spoken with my brother in two years, I had no idea it was Lytle. But, alas, he showed up at my door with the young child the next morning. I turned him away, but not before helping him plan on how to get away. Because, I still loved my brother and I knew, or, I thougt, he would return Patrick eventually. I helped him hatch a plan to run to Blackpool and stake-out in our beach house and have the ransom sent to a random warehouse near my home. I would go pick up the ransom and have it there for him to take." Barry continued.

"Wait, wait, wait! Did you keep any of this money?" I asked curiously.

"I got a quarter of it, yes." Barry whispered, "My wife had no idea I had the money or that I even helped him."

"Okay, carry on." I said, pondering what Barry had just said.

"So, that plan went off without a hitch. But, Lytle asked for more money and when it hadn't been given in time he killed the child. After that kidnapping there were three more plain murders and two were adults and one was a teenager. They were breaking-and-entering related. But then he went back to kidnapping and got some ransom the same way he had before but to different places outside of the city. But, as always, Lytle wanted more and murdered the victims before they gave more money. Two were under eight and the other was an adult. After that he was captured because of Horace and that was just that." Barry told us, wide-eyed.

"When he escaped and came to you with Porter what exactly happened?" James asked.

Suddenly Gunner knocked on the door and handed us a file. James and I took it and looked over what was inside before leaving the interrogation room to chat, "So, this secret lair was basically crawling with evidence and their plans to eliminate us and a couple others."

James sighed, "Looks like it, and since it was in Barry's house he had to have made it."

"Crap! So now we need to find out what this is about." I yelled.

"All we can do is talk to Barry and see what he has to say. He already is an accomplice and he was in possession of ransom money. We can nail him for that, thrown in Azkaban for a while." James explained walking back towards the room.

"Barry, we need to talk about the planning wall in your cellar." I sat down across from him.

"It's Lytle's."

"No way, you had to help." James slammed the file onto the table, displaying two pictures of the incriminating web.

"Okay, maybe I did a little more than turn Lytle away. We put together the web and he said that he would come back next week to see it and plan some more." Barry lifted his hands.

"I'm sorry Mr. Rosserin, but you're going to Azkaban." I said, standing up.

James and I exited the room and James said, "That's a bunch of crap. That web had to take a long time."

"Well, whatever, maybe he'll crack by tomorrow, but I need to talk to Ron about the findings at Blackpool." I rubbed my face with my hands.

"Go home, I'll talk to Ron." Gunner said, coming up behind me, "Go home Scorpius."

"I can't!" I shouted, "I can't let this go! And we still need to question May."

I ran towards Ron's office and barged through the door. "Mr. Weasley, I need to talk to you."

"Blackpool was a bust, just dust; but, some of the others are going over tomorrow morning to check every nook and cranny. Go home Scorpius, be with Rose. I have a buttload of paperwork to go over; go be with my daughter, your wife if you've forgotten. She needs you more than we do. Albus will interrogate May, don't worry about it. He is okay!" Ron stood up.

I walked out defeated and went home to not sleep.

Okay, there you go, Barry's story! Sorry that it's a little short. I am sorry once again for not updating! So, i do hope you enjoyed this chapter, the next one shall be May's interrogation!
