Chapter 4:
Karr couldn't believe his eyes...or his mind. There's no way this was Kitt. There's no way. This was probably done by some sick individual trying to kill off the last link to a murder or something.
Then how does that explain Kitt's clothes everywhere?
I don't know! Karr argued mentally. Many people wear the same clothes. That's nothing new! It's probably some homeless person's stuff.
Then his mind reverted back to when the baby opened his eyes at him. The color was a very rare one to find in people. But there was only one person that owned the finest ever seen by man. A person who Karr was honored to call a little brother.
So then this has to be Kitt.
No, Karr grated mentally. There's lots of people with sky blue eyes. That doesn't mean anything.
So there are other people out there that contain not only the finest, but the perfect shade of sky blue?
"YES!" He bellowed, pissed that he's been arguing with his own damn thoughts for the past 20 minutes.
The tiny baby stirred in his arms and began to cry again. Little tears streaming down the corners of his eyes. Karr mentally cursed himself a 100 times over. If this truly was Kitt, he's gonna have to get used to having a baby around.
"Nononono," He murmured softly, rocking the baby gently in his arms. "shhh, you're alright. Shhh...you're safe little one. I promise."
Again, at the sound of Karr's voice, the tiny infant slowly quieted down and opened up his eyes. The little sky blue eyes stared curiously up at Karr, as if he were questioning who this man was that was holding him. Karr smiled warmly down at the infant, earning a happy giggle from the baby. Karr chuckled as he gave the tiny infant one of his hands. The child quickly latched on to his hand, the baby's small hands wrapped tightly around Karr's fingers.
Oh yeah, Karr finally, happily agreed. This is definitely Kitt.
Then, as if the baby understood him, he began to giggle loudly. His little sky blue eyes full of amusement as he stared back up at Karr. Karr's mirrored them exactly.
Ok, now they needed to find out where the hell they were exactly. Karr surveyed the area. Keeping an eye out for more than just clues of their location. His baby brother cooed up at him quietly, wanting attention. Karr softly shushed him back into a doze-like state.
Down the ways some, he saw the entrance along with a little paved pathway that led out to the gate. Karr stood up, making sure the precious infant in his arms was still asleep, before making his trek towards the entrance. When he reached it, he looked around to see if by some miraculous way the Trans-Am followed their fate as well...
Nope. There were zero cars of any kind parked in the lot. Though on the other side, the streets were buzzing with activity. Hmm...maybe he could find a phone and call home...
"Hey, excuse me? Sir?" A man's voice polite voice said from behind Karr. Karr quickly faced the man, ready for anything. Thankfully, Kitt didn't wake.
"Y-yes?" Karr replied levelly. The shorter, burley looking man smiled at him. The other man was older, ranging around maybe 55-60 from the looks of his chiseld, greying features.
"Is everything alright? You look a little shaken up. Do you need help?" The man said as he looked between Karr and the sleeping baby in his arms.
Karr was going to deny the favor, but bit back his ready reply. This guy didn't have the typical evil vibe Karr easily picked up on. The man just simply wanted to help. And besides, Karr could use the help and all with his current situation. Namely with the thing snuggled in his arms.
"Where are we?" Karr asked the burley man.
"Why, downtown LA of course. Are you not from around here?"
Downtown LA. Great. He knew where they were at now. Step two was getting home.
"Ah, no. More like just a little turned around, if you will." Karr simply stated as another gust whipped about, the tiny infant starting to wake again and whimper.
"Here," The other man said. "let me give you a ride home, that is, if it's alright with you. It's awfully cold out here."
"No, no that's fine. Thank you."
"Of course. I'd hate to see the two of you freeze to death out here."
Karr gave the kind man a smile as they headed over to his car. Kitt, as if he knew what was going on, began to coo and giggle. Making the adults chuckle at the baby's antics.
