Big Time Mystery
Chapter 7
Been a while...
Logan and Kendall were on their way back to Kendall's house to meet Katie and talk to her. It was quiet most of the way. Logan had been enjoying his relationship with Kendall; it was almost like paradise... apart from the whole 'people are trying to kill Kendall' thing. He pulled up to the drive way and parked. He killed the engine and got out the car, walked to the front door and opened it to reveal Katie sitting on the couch. She looked freaked.
"Where's Kendall?" Katie asked him
"Right here" he said "Wait. Where is he" he walked to the door and looked outside. He wasn't there. Katie saw the look on Logan's face and jumped up glaring at Logan. She looked outside and she didn't see Kendall.
"Yeah umm where is he?" She asked
"I don't know..."
"If we find him and he has been hurt, I am gonna kick your ass"
"I know" he said walking back out to his car. He stopped when he saw something attached to the door. He pulled it off, unfolded it and read it "Who is Brian?"
"Oh"
"Oh what?"
"Oh shit is what"
"Why?"
"When I was a little younger this kid, Brian, had a massive crush on me. He always being nice to me and buying me things, then one day, another kid asked me out and I said yes after Brian was spending years being nice. The kid asked me out tons of times, but I always said no. There was something about that kid that only I knew about. Me, no one else" She told him still standing at the front door "He had always been cutting himself on his arms, legs stomach and sometimes his face saying 'look what you've done to me' He was a sweet kid"
"Well why didn't you say yes?"
"He had been telling everyone for years that the reason he had no parents was because they were brutally murdered in front of him. They were, you could say he had front row seats"
"What do you mean?"
"He killed them. He killed lots of family members, that is if they said no to him"
"Wait. Why didn't he kill you? You said no to him"
"Could you kill someone you love?"
"He killed his parents"
"That love was forced" she told him "He was adopted"
"Oh. So he loved you more than the people who took him in?"
"Yea" she said walking to the car and getting in the driver's seat "I know where to go. Get in"
"Can you drive?"
"Please"
"Fine" he said. He got in and she started driving. The whole drive was silent. They were driving for a long time. Well it seemed like it, it was really boring. Every time he tried to turn on the radio or something, she swatted his hand away. He didn't like it. It wasn't fun, all was, was complete silence.
"Why did you really agree to help?"
"What do you mean? I love Kendall"
"Where were you goin the other day after school?"
"What?"
"I followed you? Where were you going?"
"To a meeting"
"Where?"
"At work"
"Where do you work?"
"The place I had that meeting I told you about"
"You are... difficult"
"Okay"
"Where were you going?" she asked "Why did you really agree?"
"You can't tell Kendall"
"Okay"
Meanwhile
"Who are you?" Kendall had kept on repeating that the whole time he was with him.
"SHUT UP!" it was really getting on his nerves. All Kendall could see was his feet. The rest of him was hidden in the shadows. He was under this one light in the middle of what looked like a shed; he could see lights coming from outside of it from what looked like a house.
"Your mother in there?"
"I swear if you don't shut up-"
"Okay okay" Kendall cut him off with, not wanting to know "You do know they're gonna save right?"
"Sure. They don't know where I am" then, ironically, they saw what looked like headlights coming toward the shed. Really fast "Scratch that"
"I told ya" he said as the boy came forward "How old are you?"
"Not very" he said as two figures got out of the car. Kendall smiled as he saw their faces. They came closer, opened the door and walked in.
"Hey!" Katie yelled "Brian!"
"What do you want?"
"Now, isn't that the most obvious question here?" Logan asked "Let him go"
"Nope" said Brian. Katie looked at Logan.
"Go for it" he said. Katie took the knife out of her back pocket earning a confused look from Logan. Then she ran at Brian.
Logan walked over to Kendall. He knelt down behind him and started to untie the ropes; just as he got it undone they heard a girly scream and looked over to see Brian with a knife going into his stomach.
"God. I thought that was you Katie"
"Nope" she said pulling out the knife "Let's go"
"I'm driving this time" Logan yelled. He looked from Katie to a very confused Kendall.
"You don't know how to drive"
"Meh" she said waving her hand. They all walked out of the door.
"Shotgun!"
"You are so childish" Logan said. Kendall ran to the car and jumped in the front seat "You seem happy"
"Yup"
"Why? You got kidnapped and someone tried to kill you"
"Still happy"
"There was a man killed in front of you"
"And..."
"Oh my god" Katie said face palming. She and Logan then walked to the car and they both jumped in. Logan started the car and started to drive. Kendall was talking to Katie so Logan didn't really get to talk at all until Kendall said he was hungry. Logan drove to the nearest gas station. He pulled up into the car park and stopped the car. They all got out and walked inside.
...
"We need to step up our game, they keep on getting away" a man said "We need to kill him. She killed everyone I loved"
There was a group of men in a room having a meeting and they were all ones of which had been hurt badly by Katie. Some of them she had put at risk, put them in jail for years or killed their family. They weren't gonna just let it slide. She couldn't go unpunished.
"They are too good. His boyfriends a friken FBI agent!" another yelled
"Well then we need to get to him first"
"But how?" a bunch of them said
"Okay here's the plan"
...
"Students as you all know, the school dance is coming up in a couple of days. We have entertainment; food and we also have music, from our very own Kendall Knight" the Principal tole the school. Everyone started talking to discuss things "So remember the date, it is this Friday on the 13th"
"That's unlucky" Kendall said to himself. The principal dismissed everyone and they all started filling out of the hall. Kendall saw Logan walking to his locker and followed him. He saw that Logan was on the phone, he had been fighting with his mother lately.
"Yeah, Okay! - Mom I know! You are always bugging me! Why can't I live a normal life! - No I'm not gonna quit! BYE" Logan said and hung up
"Quit what?" Kendall asked
"My job"
"What job?"
"I've gotta go" Logan said walking away
"Katie isn't here. You can't leave me on my own" he said catching up to him "Get back here"
"I don't wanna talk about my job. It's not a normal teen job"
"Well can we go now?"
"Oh yeah. Let's go then" Logan's phone beeped "Just a sec"
"Hello?"
"We are gonna need you to come in right now"
"But I've gotta drop off my- uh I've gotta drop someone off"
"I don't care come now. Bring them with you"
"Yes sir" h hung up and turned to Kendall "Well I guess you have to come with me"
"Where"
"Work. That was my boss he wants me in now"
"That's what she said"
"Shut up and let's go"
...
"WOW" Kendall said
"C'mon let's go in" Logan said
"Wow"
"Let's go!"
"You work at the FBI!"
"Yeah I know let's go" he said grabbing Kendall's arm "If they say anything about you or your sister, don't say anything"
"Got it"
"Let's go" they walked inside and he swiped his badge and walked through some doors "I'm gonna leave you with some friends" he walked to Lucy's office cubical knowing that both she and Jo would be in there
"Hey Logan" Jo said
"Babysitting time" he said. He let go of Kendall and pushed him onto and chair and ran out the room.
"Hi" Kendall said
"Hi" Lucy said "I'm Lucy, this is Jo"
"I'm Jo"
"I'm Kendall"
"Kendall Knight?" Lucy asked
"Yeah" Logan ran back to the room "Hey Logie"
"Don't talk about Katie. Any of you"
"Yup" Kendall said pretending to zip his lips. Logan ran off again.
