I DO NOT OWN BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Chapter 66

After Catherine was asleep that night Heather sat on her bed looking at the pictures from her father's wedding trying to find any of the random man that went by the name 'Vincent Zalanski.' She continued to scroll through until she found the pictures of him and her sister sharing a dance. She was happy her sister was happy but man did she not trust that guy. All she could picture was another Zeke.

She highlighted all the pictures she had of Vincent and uploaded them to the website with the caption: 'Vincent Zalanski' She hoped that someone would say something to reveal who he really was. She pressed share and then let out a deep breath. After a couple minutes of staring at her computer screen she shut her laptop and put it beside her bed for the night.

"How's everything looking for the boss's promotion?" Tess asked.

"Fine." Catherine replied. "How's your new partner?"

For a moment Tess didn't say anything. "Fine."

Neither of the two detective said a word. Catherine continued looking at her clip board while Tess just stood looking around the decorated room for the upcoming event.

"Double checked for the caterer and we are good to go."

Catherine looked up from her clipboard and over to Darius. "Thanks." she said with the smile. "I really appreciate you helping out."

Darius smiled. "Anything for my brother."

Catherine smiled and went back to checking her clip board and Darius pulled out the check his phone. He scrolled to check his email and on FaceBook he saw Heather posted some photo's. He pressed on the photo's and a small smile crept on his face. 'It was him...' he thought to himself.

Later that evening Catherine walked out of the precinct towards he car when she felt someone pull of her jacket. She quickly turned around ready to give however touched her a bloody nose but quickly stopped herself from doing so when she recognized who it was.

"A simple 'Catherine' would've worked." Catherine said in a joking manner.

"Sorry but there's something you should know..."

Catherine gave Vincent a worried look.

"Heather posted picture online."

Catherine grew wide eyed. "Of what? Of you?"

Vincent nodded.

"Where the hell did she get pictures of you?"

"The wedding."

Catherine let out a big sigh and rubbed her forehead. "God damn it Heather."

Vincent didn't say anything.

"Vincent I am...so sorry. I swear when I get home...I'll...I just...I'm sorry sorry."

Vincent swallowed. "Don't be."

"But everything you and JT worked for?"

"Don't worry about me or JT just worry about Heather."

"Heather? Why?"

"Catherine, they are going to want to know where those pictures came from."

Catherine let out a big sigh. "Oh my god. Okay, you're right I'll...I'll keep you up to date."

Vincent nodded and turned around to walk back to the warehouse.

"Hey." Catherine called out.

He his head around to look back at her.

"I'm so sorry if I knew she was going to-"

Vincent shook his head. "Worrying won't do anything."

When Catherine got home she slammed her bag and through her jacket across the room.

"Whoa tough day planning the party?" Heather asked with a smile.

Catherine looked up at her. "Go get dressed."

"Huh?"

"You heard me, get dressed."

"For what?"

"The party." Catherine replied harshly.

"I'm going?"

Catherine nodded. "Yeah you are. And that real estate agent is going to keep you company."

"Darius?"

Catherine nodded. "Now go, quick, we gotta go soon."

Heather nodded and quickly left the room.

Catherine let out a large sigh and then realized she had to great ready as well.

"Wow nice job setting it up." Heather said as she looked around the room.

Catherine looked around and smiled. "Wasn't just me."

Tess walked by Catherine without saying a word.

"Here is you're drink." Tess said handing it to Joe.

"Uh, thanks." Joe replied only seconds before another woman walked up to him and linked her arm around his.

"Hi, I'm Miranda Bishop, Joe's wife."

Tess smiled. "Tess Vargas, I work with your husband."

"Nice to meet you Tess." Miranda said as she held out her hand but then noticed two champagne glasses filling Tess's hands.

"Uh..." Miranda questioned as she looked back at Joe.

"Oh thank you Tess." Joe quickly said as he took the drink and handed it to Miranda. "Here you are, Miranda."

For a moment Tess was speechless but after Joe made eye contact with her she snapped back to reality. "Nice meeting you Miranda."

"You good to go in?" A man asked.

"Ready as ever." Darius replied loading his gun in the passenger seat.

"Just don't get torn apart." The man said.

Darius looked over at him. "I get the girl and ask her to talk, I'm pretty sure I'll be fine."

The man shrugged. "That's what Silverfox said." the man said under his breath.

"Come again?" asked Darius.

The man shook his head. "Nothing."

Darius took one last look at the man. "How about sending Claire in huh? I see she's got all ten finger's and toes."

The man didn't get a chance to reply because Darius slammed the passenger door. He checked to make sure his gun would stay in his black dress pants and luckily it wouldn't budge. He walked in to the room as he spotted Heather.

"Heather, Catherine, always a pleasure." Darius said while shaking each of their hands.

Catherine smiled. "I'm just gunna go check on the..food."

After Catherine was gone Darius whispered down in Heather's ear. "Wanna go somewhere?"

Heather looked up at him and smiled. "Where did you have in mind?"

Darius smirked. "It's a surprise."

Heather raised an eye brow. "Oh?"

Darius nodded. "Come on."

"What about Cat?" Heather asked.

Darius shrugged. "I'm sure she'll be far to busy to even notice."

Heather nodded and rolled her eyes. "So true."

Darius took Heather's hand and lead to her to the back of the building towards his car. He first walked over to open her door and once she was in he went around to get into the driver's seat. Before he opened his door he check to see if his gun was still tucked and hidden.

"So where are we going?" Heather asked as Darius turned the corner.

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you now would it?"

"Have you seen Heather?" Catherine asked Evan.

Evan shrugged. "Can't say I have."

Catherine sighed as Tess came up.

"Last time I saw her she was with that Darius guy. She sure makes friends fast."

Catherine gave Tess a confused look. "Huh?"

Tess shrugged. "They were talking up a storm when I saw 'em."

Catherine thought for a second and then turned to Evan. "Can you hold this?" she asked handing him her glass.

"Uh sure." Evan replied grabbing the glass.

Catherine quickly walked towards Joe while he and his wife were talking to some people she didn't recognize.

"Hi sorry to bother you, but have you seen Heather?"

Joe shook his head. "No sorry."

"Joe, the nice gentlemen with the mustache wants to talk to you." Miranda said tugging at his jacket.

"Hold on Miranda I'm talking to someone." Joe replied to his wife. "Sorry Chandler, go on."

"Joseph!" Miranda snapped. "The man over there wants to talk you! Lets go!"

Joe was about to say something to his wife when Catherine chimed in. "Know what? Don't worry. I'm sure she is around somewhere."

Before Joe could get anything else out Miranda dragged him away.

"Wow." Catherine mumbled to herself not realizing Tess was right behind her.

"Tell me about it."

Darius stopped the car near an alley and put the car in park.

"Why did we stop?" Heather asked looking over at Darius.

"Oh well the place is right through here."

Heather looked towards the ally and then back at Darius. "Seriously?"

Darius nodded. "Look's sketchy but this place has some mean steak tips."

Heather shrugged. "Alright, I trust you."

The two got out of the car and Heather began walking down the ally. She felt really stupid walking down an empty alley in the middle of New York in a dress and heels but she just rubbed it off.

Darius walked up to behind her and looked behind her shoulder. He walked closer up to her and grabbed her shoulder.

"What?" Heather asked gigging.

Darius grabbed Heathers wrist.

"Ow! Darius!" Heather yelled.

"Shut up." Darius snapped. "Where is he?"

"Who?" Heather asked trying to get her wrist free from his grip.

"Keller, where is he?"

"Who's Keller?"

"The guy, from diner"

"Vincent Zalanski? How am I supposed to know? Now would you just let go of me?" Heather snapped.

"'Afraid I can't do that sweetheart." Darius said lifting his jacket to expose his gun.

While some random man that neither Catherine, Tess, or Evan recognized was speaking on the podium Joe quickly stood up and tapped the man on his shoulder. The man stepped aside giving Joe the microphone. "Anyone see Darius?"

Everyone looked around the room but no one said a word.

"Darius you out there?" Joe asked right before Miranda walked up to Joe pulling him out from behind the microphone. "What do you think you're doing?" Miranda snapped.

"My brother, I can't find him."

"Well, maybe he left." Miranda snapped. "Now in the mean time here we are at your party and you're making me look foolish."

"You?" Joe asked.

"Yes me, now please pull it together."

Joe shook his head. "You don't know Darius, he wouldn't just leave like that."

"Why do you have that?" Heather asked in a panicked tone.

"Answer the question, and maybe you can live." Darius demanded.

"Maybe what do you mean by maybe?" Heather shrieked.

"Just answer the god damn question, where is Vincent Keller?!"

"I don't even know a Vincent Keller!" Heather snapped.

Darius sighed. "You don't talk and I'll kill you, right here, right now."

Heather shook her head. "No you wouldn't."

"Watch me." Darius said. "Now I'm not gunna ask again. Where is Keller?"

"I don't know!"

"Fine have it you're way..." He lifted his gun and pointed it at Heathers hand while placing his finger on the trigger. Just before he could pull back he fell of his feet. Heather fell to the ground and covered her face with her hands praying for her life. She began to shake while she heard the sound of flesh tearing. She wanted to look at what it was that was murdering Darius but she couldn't bring herself to look. She couldn't even bring herself to move a muscle.

The beast continued ripping Darius to shreds. It took its claws and cut through his flesh like scrissors and paper. He suddenly stopped and jerked his head up. He looked over at the direction he heard the faint sounds of sirens and then back at Heather who had her head in between her knees. He then looked back at Darius who was currently scattered all over the alley. Vincent slowly regained his normal self and took one last look at Heather before turned to flee the scene.

After the sound of ripping flesh stopped Heather looked up towards Darius who was lying dead on the ground with open gashes all over his body. She quickly brought her head back towards her knees when the cruisers and ambulance pulled up near her. She wanted to get up and run. Run far far away from whatever the hell just happened right in front of her. But she couldn't. She couldn't get herself to move.

Catherine ran towards the scene but stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Darius lying dead on the ground and Heather in the corner. She held her breath until she saw Heather slightly move. She was alive. Catherine took one last deep breath before running over towards her sister. Only two people were on her mind. Heather and Vincent.

"Heather!" Catherine yelled as she ran towards her sister's side.

Heather slowly got up and watched as Catherine ran towards her.

As Catherine got closer she saw the tears running down her sisters face. "It's okay." Catherine said as she knelt down next to her petrified sister.

"Wha-What- What was that? What hap-happened?" Heather managed to say.

"Shhh..." Catherine said as she rubbed her sisters back.

Heather didn't say anything else she just rested her head in her sisters lap and began to cry.

"What the hell?" Joe yelled as he tried to hold back his tears. "Get him to the hospital now!"

Catherine watched as one of the paramedics ran over to Darius to check his pulse. "I'm sorry sir but he's-"

"I said get him to the god damn hopsital!" Joe snapped.

"Sir I'm sorry but-"

Joe turned towards the paramedic. "Get him to the god damn hospital you son of a bitch!"

The paramedic sighed and ran back over towards the ambulance. Before the paramedic went to get his medical equipment he went over to Evan.

"You may want to get him a ride home."

"I'll do it." Tess said as she began to make her way towards Joe.

Miranda quickly went up to Tess. "I don't think so, how about you go back to you're little desk job huh?"

Tess swallowed. "Look you-"

Evan quickly grabbed Tess's arm. "Easy Tess, it's not worth it, not now."

Tess agreed and Miranda made her way towards Joe. "Come on let's leave the professionals to their work. I'm sure they will keep you posted."

Joe turned towards Miranda. "My brother he's dead Miranda! He just got murdered! He's...he's..."

"Joe let's go." Miranda said.

As another officer came up the scene Joe grabbed his arm. "I want you to get this son of a bitch who did this to my brother. I want him behind bars and in prision the rest of his damn life and I want him dead or alive. I don't care what it takes I want him brought to justice and I want you to get him at all costs."

As Miranda literally dragged Joe off the scene Heather rested her head in Catherine lap against a wall. A paramedic came over to them but Heather just wanted to stay were she was with her sister surrounded by people who could protect her at all costs.

"He wanted Vincent..." Heather said as she watched the paramedics cover Darius's body.

Catherine didn't say anything.

"Cat?" Heather asked in a shaky tone.

"Hm?"

"That night, something saved you in the woods, they way you described it...it sounds just like how I would describe what just happened."

Catherine didn't say anything.

"How are you so calm?" Heather asked looking up at her sister.

"I'm okay because I know you're okay. And that's all that matters to me is that the people I care about are okay."

"I heard flesh being ripped." Heather said as she turned towards her sister.

"Are brain does weird things when it can't come up with a reasonable answer."

Heather shook her head. "I'm serious."

"Well you feel on pavement, lets get you checked out."

Heather nodded.

"Hey!" Catherine called to one of the paramedics who quickly ran over.

"She okay?"

Catherine nodded. "Just tired but mentally I don't think she's all that well. I hope this is not too much to ask but could she stay in the hopsital for the night? Just to make sure she's okay."

The paramedic nodded. "Absolutely."

WOOHOO done. Now I wrote this before I wrote these past chapters only based on the promo and the little clip with Evan and the Murifield guy. Nothing else. I finished before I watched the episode so I have no idea if it's gunna be similar. Anyway, next Chapter will be up sometime this weekend. PLEASE REVIEW!
