Chapter 3: A Clue
The dark suited police were staring at us with their cold, beady eyes as we were feeling quite nervous.
" Excuse me sir but..what did we do wrong?" said Amy.
" Don't try and trick us! Your with the Vox populi!" the officer said.
'' Wait...the what? Ok, you must be confused. Were from..." I paused.
" From where? You better tell me, other wise you'll be heading to the slammer." he said.
I started to hesitate and said " From down under."
" Down under..what are you talking about? I don't know anywhere that's...". He started staring at me like a was cold, murderous criminal. Then he whispered something into the other officers ear and looked back at me.
'' Your in even deeper trouble now."
He walked towards us with huge handcuffs and was about to grab us when a voice ran through my head. It sounded like a commercial voice and it said...
" Possession: Gives you the power to control machines. Give it a go!". Then the voice faded. A mechanized mannequin stood right behind the officers and I used it to my advantage. I summoned all the power inside of me and released it. A glowing figure floated from me, between the two officers and hit the mannequin. At first, nothing happened. Then the mannequin started to glow and grabbed the officers and pulled them into the air. Then it threw them across the street and they landed on a carnival tent.
" GET THEM! THEY ARE NOT COLUMBIANS!'' the officer yelled.
Everyone started to look at us with dark looks and started to run towards us.
" Run!" I yelled as we opened the bronze gate and made a run for it. We kept running and running but the citizens of Columbia were not as slow as you think. We made a turn and a saw alley that we could hide in.
" Quick! Through here!" I said. We ran through the alley and hid in two wooden barrels. I peaked through a hole in the barrel, trying to see if they spotted us. They past the alley and kept running. Then we climb out of the barrels, filled with relieve.
" Man, for a second there, I thought that we were toast." I said.
" All this trouble for our uncle." Amy said.
" Your uncle, eh?" A voice said.
We turned around and saw a man and a women with identical outfits. They kind of look nice, but something about their smile unease me.
" Ummmm...who are you?" I said.
" Sorry about that. My name Robert Lutece. This is my twin sister, Rosalind. I see your looking for your uncle. Booker Dewitt, right?" Robert said.
I was shocked. How did he know that?
" Wait. You know him?" I said questionably.
They Lutece twins looked at each other and looked back at us.
Rosalind said " We know "of" him". They both walked up to us and we walked back, hoping that they weren't dangerous.
" If you wish to find him, look for Elizabeth." Robert said.
" Who's Elizabeth?" I said.
" A old debt that has already been payed for." Rosalind said.
" You will find her in the Monument Tower. Be aware though. Just because its a tower, doesn't mean it doesn't have its fair share of dangers."
We turned around and saw the huge tower that the Lutece twins were talking about.
" Hey, thanks for the.." I paused. When we turned around, the Lutece twins were gone.
"...tip".
We started to carefully walked to the tower, even if we were 2 miles away. We went through alleys and shortcuts just to make sure that we don't bump into officers or columbians and to get there quicker. Trust me...in this kind of situation, you can never be too safe or too careful. The tower had a huge chunk of it destroyed, almost as if a huge explosion blew it off. We just headed up the road when I saw 6 officers near the tower. One of them had huge, bulking armour and started to summon fireballs out of his hands. Sure it could be easy to outsmart a bunch of officers, but would you really try to outsmart a guy who burn you to a crisp in a instant?
" Alright. I've got a plan. I'm going to distract those guys over there while you try and unlock the locks." Amy said.
" What?! Are you insane?! That..guy..has..fire!"
" Hey, do you want to find our uncle or not?!" She said.
" Alright, but don't get burned." I said.
" Ok."
" And Amy?"
" Yeah?"
" Be careful."
She nodded her head and ran off towards the officers.
" Yeah, ugly losers! Come and get me ya smelly officers!" She yelled.
The officers and the armoured guy started to run after her down the other alley. With no nobody around, I sneaked towards the tower door. Surprisingly, the door wasn't locked. Guess they really don't care about locks, just guards. I ran through the door and yelled.
" Amy, get back here! The door is unlocked!" I yelled. She started to run back, but the guy in the bulking armour was chasing after her with giant fireballs in his hands. She ran through the door and I closed it just in time as the fire dude threw a giant fireball at us. The fireball hit the door and almost burned it.
" Man, that was close." I said.
" WAY too close." she said.
" Come on. We have to find this girl named Elizabeth." I said.
" Yeah. Those other twins told us that she is at the top of this tower. " she said.
We both looked up. The tower was HUGE. It had metal walls with reinforced bolts screwed in. There was a large bronze staircase on the left side. From our angles, there were almost about 24 floors.
" Well..better start looking. " I said.
We started climbing up the stairs and looked around. We saw these windows. In them there were different rooms, like a bedroom and a kitchen. It was pretty strange. Then we saw a huge library filled with 3 stories tall. It kind of looked cool until we saw someone. She had a blue cloak over her head, but I can still see her hair, all black with strains of gray. She walked past the window when she turned around, looking straight at us. She came closer to the window and said...
" Hello. Have you come to visit me?"
