I DO NOT OWN BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Chapter 30

The three of them stood in silence just watching Lafferty who was still unconsious on the ground.

"So now what?" JT asked breaking the silence.

Catherine looked at JT but Vincent remained staring at his friend.

"Vincent?" JT asked.

Vincent continued to look at Lafferty. "If this..." Vincent started. "If this is what is going to happen to me then I've gotta go."

"What?!" JT and Catherine both said in unison.

"I mean just look at her!" Vincent said pointing to Lafferty. "She tried to kill me even though she knows who I am, which means I will probably end up hurting you two and I just can't live with that." he walked away from the cage with Catherine following quickly behind.

"Vincent..." she said putting a hand on his shoulder.

"Look Catherine, it just won't be safe for me to be around you guys. I mean look at Lafferty, she's past out in a cage." Vincent said turning around.

"Maybe there is something in my mom's notes." Catherine said

"There won't be anything, these are side-effects from ten years later, there will not be any formula's for them to create an antidote." Vincent said.

Suddenly Lafferty made a noise causing all three to look over at her.

"Then we have to figure out something." JT said.

"JT's right." Catherine said sitting down next to Vincent.

"Can I get that in writing?" JT asked.

Vincent got up and walked towards Lafferty who was waking up. "I want you two to go upstairs." Vincent said trying to unlock the cage.

"Excuse me?" JT asked. "Not happening dude."

"Vincent we can't just leave you here!" Catherine protested.

Vincent turned around to face them. "Just go upstairs, I don't want her to hurt either one of you."

"No man, not happening." JT said

"I agree." Catherine said.

"Seriously, can I get this all in writing?" JT asked.

Vincent didn't say anything knowing agruing was just going to get them nowhere.

Lafferty slowly turned around to lie on her other side.

"Wait..." Vincent said standing up. "JT the serum for the black-out's, do you have any of it still?"

"Vincent that stuff will only work for you." JT said. "If you want it to work for her then I need her blood. I would also need a Spartan RX Real Time DNA Analyzer."

Catherine looked at JT remembering were she head that before.

"Which is in a Police Forensics Lab." JT continued.

"So you're saying you need access to the Lab again?" Catherine asked.

JT nodded.

"No, we can't." Vincent spoke up. "Catherine will lose her job and-"

"Well JT doesn't need to be the one in the lab." Catherine said cutting off Vincent.

The two guys gave her a weird look.

"Then who would make the serum?" JT asked.

"I..." Catherine paused. "I know someone."

"No! Not Birthday-boy! There is absolutely no way another cop person needs to find out about Vincent. Nope. Not happening." JT said throwing this hands in the air.

"No, it's not..." Catherine paused. "Did you just say birthday-boy?"

JT didn't say anything.

"Are you talking about Evan?" Catherine asked.

"Guys." Vincent said while he aproached Lafferty. "She's waking up."

Lafferty slowly opened her eyes and they were normal color. Vincent sighed, he was glad to see she was back to normal. "Lafferty, it's me Vincent you're okay."

Lafferty slowly sat up and rubbed her head. "Where am I?" she asked.

"You're in a warehouse, you're okay."

"Where's Johnson?" Lafferty qucikly stood up making Vincent do the same.

"He's dead he's not after you anymore."

"Dead?! He's dead? How did he die?" Lafferty asked.

"He was found dead a few days ago." Vincent said trying to keep her calm.

"How the hell are you alive?!" Lafferty yelled taking a step back from Vincent.

"I escaped just like you did." Vincent said.

Lafferty gave Vincent a stern look. "Take me back to were you found me."

Vincent gave her a weird look. "What?"

"You heard me!" Lafferty yelled. "Take me back I have to go! They can't know you found me!"

Lafferty shoved past Vincent and made her way out of the cage.

"Lafferty!" Vincent said grabbing her arm.

"Look Keller! They are after me and if they find me here with you then we will both be dead!"

"Lafferty..." Vincent said trying to calm her down even though he is completely flipping out on the inside as well.

Lafferty turned around and her eyes shifted colors. She growled at Vincent. "If you know whats good for you, you will let me go."

Vincent began to feel the beast try to take over but he tried his best to keep it inside. "Lafferty, if you just talk to me maybe we-"

Before Vincent could finish Lafferty took her fist and broke the table next to the in half. She turned into the Beast and made her way closer to Vincent.

Vincent tried fighting off the beast but nothing he did seemed to work.

Lafferty growled at Vincent one last time before turning towards JT and Catherine who were only a few feet away.

Vincent couldn't control the beast any longer and before he knew it he shoved Lafferty to the ground. He wasn't going to let her hurt them.

Lafferty quickly got back to her feet and hit Vincent across his face causing blood to run down the side of his cheek. He looked at Lafferty and made his way closer to her. She gripped at his neck but he managed to grab her arm and flip her on her back. She quickly got up but before she made it back over to Vincent she instantly fell to the ground. Vincent saw the tranquilizer dart that was located in the upper part of her leg.

Catherine ran over to Vincent trying to calm him down while JT stayed in the same spot terrified.

"Vincent." Catherine said putting a hand on his cheek. "Vincent you're okay. She didn't hurt us."

Vincent slowly changed back into his normal self and looked over at JT who was about to pee his pants.

"You okay man?" Vincent asked.

JT slowly nodded but was still in to much shock to even reply.

Vincent felt the blood dip down his face and looked up at Catherine. "You okay?"

Catherine smiled. "I'm fine."

"She has GOT to go." JT finally said.

"JT-" Vincent started.

"Dude, she tried to kill you, three times." JT said putting the tranquilizer back on his research table. "And she broke the freaking table in half!"

"JT please..." Vincent begged. "She is our only hope on finding out what may happen to me."

JT threw his hands in the air. "Well I'm pretty sure we have a visual!"

"She knows stuff we don't." Vincent snapped.

"Vincent, look, I know you care about her but honestly? If Murifield's tracking her too and finds out where she is. We're all dead man." JT said walking over to Vincent.

"We have a couple choices." Catherine spoke up. "We can either keep her locked up, let her go, or..." Catherine paused. "Or we could treat her blackouts."

"We don't even know if she's blacking out." JT said. "For all we know it's just her DNA mutating and there is nothing we can do about it."

Catherine looked over at Vincent who couldn't seem to take his eyes off Lafferty.

"Then we will just have to find out." Catherine said as she faced JT.

"Find out how?" JT asked crossing his arms.

"We have to get that DNA Analyzer you were talking about." Catherine said.

JT shook his head. "No. Going back to the precint? No. That's just out of the question."

"JT we might not have a choice." Vincent said looking towards his room mate.

"No, no. We deffinatly have choices. It's called plan A and plan B. Which both consist of letting her go."

"We can't just let her go and risk Murifield finding out about her! She worked just as hard as I did to get Murifield off her back for at least a few years and now she is here in need of help and all you can say is let her go?" Vincent asked.

"If we keep her here it will be easier for Murifield to find both of you." JT said back.

"Wait..." Catherine said.

Both Vincent and JT looked over at her. "What?" JT asked.

"The case..." Catherine said in nearly a whisper.

"What about the case?" JT asked.

"Lafferty must of killed Gregg Johnson. Johnson found her, she panicked, kills Johnson, get's scared and takes his car, during her time driving she hits the woman and panics even more. She flee's the scene and drops her ID in the process."

Neither JT or Vincent said anything.

"Which means the precinct is looking for Lafferty. They found her DNA but noticed she also had a death certificate. They think the DNA is from 9 years ago before her time in the military. They examined Johnson's body and noticed crushed bones. My partner think's whoever killed Johnson is the same person who killed the man in the ally."

JT flung his arms in the air. "Great! Just great! Now the NYPD won't stop because they think there is a serial killer on the loose. First birthday-boy, then the Murifield agent in the ally and now Jensen, or what ever his name is."

"Johnson." Catherine corrected.

"Whatever." JT snapped.

"And seriously birthday-boy?" Catherine asked.

Vincent rolled his eyes and stood up. "Look JT, how about you go watch some TV or whatever while me and Catherine talk."

"Since when did I become the three-year old who can't be involved in conversations?" JT asked looking at Vincent.

Vincent just looked at JT not saying a word.

"Fine. Whatever. I think there is a new Dr. Phil recorded anyway." JT said as he walked away.

Vincent and Catherine both watched as JT walked away towards his room.

"He's such a happy person." Catherine said sarcastically.

Vincent rolled his eyes. "You have no idea."

Catherine followed Vincent as he picked Lafferty up and put her back into the cage.

"What if she escapes?" Catherine asked watching Vincent lock the door.

"She wont." Vincent replied pulling on a rope causing two red doors to close in front of it.

Catherine and Vincent walked over to the middle of the room and sat down in the chairs next to the broken table.

"So whats the plan?" Catherine asked.
