Chapter 5
Kim's POV
I walked right over to Garrett and looked him in the eye.
"Why do you want to press charges against Jack?!" I asked him. I was quite pissed off and really angry.
"Because he kidnapped you! And killed my father!"
"I understand the 'he killed my father' thing by why do you want to press charges against him because he kidnapped me?! It has nothing to so with you! If I wanted to press charges, I would've. Jack and the guys kidnapping me was the best thing that ever happened to me"
"Wait. Jack and THE GUYS?" He asked me,"what guys?" He asked.
"Is this am interrogation?" I asked him, walking up the lawn toward Jack and the police officers.
"I demand for Jack to be let go and to be brought with me" I said boldly.
"Why would you like that Miss. Crawford? Unless you lost your memory, which would be yet ANOTHER offense Mr. Brewer, you should remember perfectly well that he..."
"Yes I understand he kidnapped me, but it's the best thing that's ever happened to me!"
"That's great kid" he said dully,"you can say that at his hearing" then they started pulling him away. Before they could do anything else I ran up and kissed him. He kissed me back. I had to do it because I knew that would be the last time I might be the last time I would kiss him in a very long time.
Garret came up and pulled me off of Jack.
"JACK!" I shouted across the lawn. Garrett brought me into a police car that was going to take us to the hotel we were going to be staying at until Jack's trial. Those were going to be long, Garrett filled days.
Jack's POV
I. Hate. Prison. It's like you're a cages animal in here. You get crappy food, and you have to wear orange. Ugh. It's been two days since they arrested me. The first day I got there I got in a fight with the prison bully, I guess you could call him.
I was thrown inside and I sat down. Pondering over what had just happened. I felt so bad leaving Kim with Garrett. It made me feel like I had nothing left to live for.
"Hey look everybody" I heard a voice say,"there's some fresh meat"
"Hey new kid" another one shouted. I looked up. There was a group of five or six boys who looked to be about seventeen standing in front of me. The one that seemed to be their leader had dirty blonde hair, with brown eyes and a huge nose.
"Yes?" I asked politely.
"What are you in for?" He asked me.
"Eh. I'd rather not talk about it" I stood up and walked away
"Awww!" He said mockingly,"the new kid is a little baby. Doesn't want to tell us that he stole his little sister's bicycle. Boohoohoo!"
"You know what" I said tuning around and walking back toward them,"that is the kinda stuff I don't like to hear"
"So what you gonna do about it pip squeak?" He asked.
"Oh nothing" I said, turning around. I heard a punch coming and I caught it in my hand.
"You probably shouldn't have done that" I said. Then I turned fully around and kicked him in the stomach. His other goones started attacking me. These guys weren't as good as Frank and the black dragons. They were better. A second came after me, so I ducked and flipped him over my back. I then took him, and threw him ino the crowd that had formed around us. The leader came back again. I moved out of the way and he crashed into one of his friends. The friend was out cold but I'm not sure if the leader was. The last two guys came after me, and I ran toward the wall. I jumped up on it then pushed off it. I kicked them both in the head then they fell to the ground. Now all of them were on the ground either totally unconscious, or moaning.
About five minutes later the cops came in. They dragged me back to my cell.
That's where I was sitting now. I'm my cell. I guess you could call it time out. A two day time out. The only time I got to leave was to eat. And even then I was handcuffed to a table far away from everyone else. I guess you get a reputation from taking down the prison bully.
A cop came and got me out of my cell. He told me I had a visitor. I just assumed it was Kim. But it wasn't. When we got there, Garrett was on the other side of the glass. I sat down in the chair, and picked up the phone.
"What do you want Garrett?" I asked dully.
"I just want to let you know, that you should get mighty comforterable in that prison cell"
"Why is that? We still have the trial" I said, confused.
"Yeah. You're so going to be found guilty"
"What makes you think that?"
"You've got nobody to speak for you" he said.
"Yeah I do. I've got Kim"
"No you don't" he laughed,"she's not going to be at the hearing. I am"
"What do you mean she's not going to be at the hearing? She said she'd come when I talked to her yesterday"
"Yeah. Yesterday. I'm going to make sure she doesn't come. Enjoy prison Jack" he said as he hung up the phone. Then he stood up and left. I needed to talk to the guys and I needed to get out of here. The officer grabbed me and started bringing me back to my cell.
"Officer. Wait. Kim. The girl at the scene with me. She is in terrible danger. You need to let me go. I have to go save her!" I shouted.
"No way kid. You're going back to your cell"
"No I'm serious! That guy Garrett is going to keep her from going to my hearing!" I shouted. The officer just shook his head.
"Fine. If you won't let me do it. Then will you please get SOMEBODY, anybody, to look after her"
"No. We're not going on a wild goose chase because you want your accuser put away" then something came over his radio,"you've got another visitor" he dragged me back to the visiting area. This time I was happy to see Milton on the other side of the glass.
"Oh Milton thank god" I said sitting down. Then alarms started going off. The officer ran from the room and I was alone with Milton. How convient.
"Milton! I HAVE to get out of here"
"Yeah no duh. The food probably sucks"
"No Milton! Kim is in trouble! You and the guys have gotta break me out"
"Yeah. About that. Jerry and Eddie got taken in"
"What" I said. This put major flaws in my plan. At least I had the smart one.
"I can try and break you out alone. What's your cell number?"
"Sixteen" I replied.
"Cool. I'll see you tonight"
"Hey Milton. I'm going to try and get out now. If I do I'll be in th forest out back. If I'm not there in an hour, resort to plan B"
He gave me a thumbs up and left. I stood up and walked to the door. Surprisingly, it was unlocked. I looked don the hallway. I heard sirens and fighting coming from one end, and a bright, peaceful light coming from the other. I decided it would be smart to go to the bright peaceful light.
I walked down that hallway then turned the corner. I heard dog barking coming from a few of the rooms. Scary. Then I realized I'd have to go threw the police station to get out. First I took off the orange jumpsuit. I still didn't have a shirt, but it was fine. Then, still with the jumpsuit in hand I climbed into the air ducts.
Once inside I threw it aside and started crawling. Soon I came upon an air conditioner. I peered through it and saw outside. I saw a car parked right outside the woods and I could have sworn I saw some red hair in it. I pushed on the air conditioner. It didnt budge. I kept trying and trying but it didn't move. I kept crawling but I couldn't find anything. I went back to the air conditioner and started pushing again. Then I saw someone get out of the car. He took out a shot gun and aimed it at the sir conditioner. I moved to the side as he fired the gun. He fired it four times until it fell to it's death. That had to have caught the police's attention.
I peered at my escape route and gasped. We were our stories above ground, but I needed to get out. I slid out and grabbed onto the bricks. Thank god they were uneven. I started climbing down, quickly but carefully. I was about three stories above ground when my foot slipped. Since I wasn't wearing a shirt my stomach got all scratched up. I managed to grab onto a brick about a story from the ground. From there I just dropped. I could hear the police officers coming.
"MILTON START THE CAR!" I screamed. He jumped in the car and started it. There was no way I would make it across the lawn before the police came.
"START DRIVING STRAIGHT AT ME!" I shouted. He looked at me like I was crazy. I was crazy, but either way I was probably going to die. He shook his head then started driving straight at me. As soon as it was close enough I jumped. I landed on the hood of the car then I jumped on top. Blood still coming out fo my stomach I'm pretty sure I got some on Milton's car. Oops. As we drove toward the cops they swerved to get out of the way. Then I heard gun shots. I banged on the sun roof.
"MILTON OPEN THE SUN ROOF!" I shouted to him. The sun roof started opening slowly as we approached the highway. Just as we got on the sun roof was open and I dove into the passenger seat. Milton closed the sun roof and continued driving.
"Milton. Pull off at this exit. They'll expect us to keep going. I think there's a car dealership up here. I think he sells used cars. We need a new one"
"But Jack. Cars cost thousands of dollars and we don't have the money to put down..."
I cut him up by holding up wades of hundred dollar bills.
"Go into the dealer. By the cheapest, FUCTIONING, car, and come out for me. My face is all over the news" I told him. He pulled into the car dealership and got out of the car. He went inside the dealership and I slumped down in the seat.
About an hour later Milton came out with a set of keys. I kept my head down as we walked to the new car. Once inside I asked him,"can I have your hoodie? It'll hide my face, and I can go in somewhere and get service"
"Sure" he said, taking off his hoodie, and handing it to me. I put it on and zipped it up. Milton started the car and we were off.
"Milton give me your cell phone" I told him. He took it out of his pocket and handed it to me. I dialed Kim's number and held the phone up to my ear.
"Come on Kim. Pick up!" I said under my breath. Then the phone stopped ringing and I heard a voice on the other end. It wasn't Kim's.
"Jack. It's about time you called" I heard him say.
"Garrett" I wasn't at all surprised,"where is she?"
"No where you need to be concerned of"
"768 north currington way!"(A/N. Idk if that's a real place)I heard a voice shout. It was Kim. Then I heard Garrett shout,"will somebody PLEASE shut her up?!"
"Don't lay a hand on her"
"I won't. Harry! Call the FBI. Have them track the call"
I immediately shut the phone and threw it out the window.
"Dude what was that for?!" Milton asked.
"They're tracking the call"
"Oh. Right. Ill but another brand new iPhone 5. Don't worry"
"I'll take care of it. Just go to 768 North Currington Way"
Milton punched the address into the GPS and we were off.
