Chapter 3: the reunion
Nick and Hank are searching for every hotel for names that could have been used by Eric to come into town and discover his whereabouts. As they are searching Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence come into the police station.
"Where is she? Where is my Kimberly!" demanded Mrs. Lawrence hysterically.
Hank and Nick get up to comfort her "I assure you, Mrs. Lawrence we are trying our best to find her." Said Hank
"You! This is all your fault! " she yelled at Nick ignoring Hank "If you hadn't arrested my baby she would have been home instead of that horrible ward and none of this would be happening. "
Mr. Lawrence looked at the officers "As you can see my wife and I are very upset about this. Have you made any progress in finding her?" he asked them
Hank answered "We think we may have a lead we are trying our best to track the suspect down but we assure you that your daughter will be found and the culprit brought to justice."
Suddenly, the door opens and Kimberly enters the police station. She sees her parents and hugs them both. Then she says hello to Hank and Nick.
"Kimberly, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence, Hank, Nick… I need to see all of you in my office right now." Said the captain
They all go into the captain's office.
"Kimberly, you've been followed here." The captain informed her
"What do you mean she's been followed?" asked Mr. Lawrence
"The man who took her has tailed her here. He doesn't want to lose track of her." Said the captain
"Who doesn't want to lose track of her?If you know something we have to right to know what, captain! We are Kimberly's parents after all!" yelled Mr. Lawrence
" Normally I would agree with your, Mr. Lawrence but your daughter's case is very special and is on a need to know who knows about it is at risk so for your safety and your daughter's it's best if you don't know…. Now everyone get down! " said Renard. Everyone gets down on the floor and bullets start to shoot through out the department. The door to the office slams open and the reapers step through "We've come for the grimm."
"I'm right here!" said Nick .
The reapers go towards Nick and he jumps over them knocking them into the captain's desk then he rams them against the wall. They try to shoot him but he jumps out of the way. He start to fight him but the ends up getting the better of them. Every time they try to shoot him he jumps out of the way. They take their scyles out and try to kill him with that but he ducks out of the way each time. He then steals one and swipes it killing both of them blood spilling over him in the process. They slowly get up.
" What was that about?" asked Mrs. Lawrence
"He lied. He said I was free to go." Said Kimberly
"Who?" asked Renard
"He said his name was Renard. Eric Renard.O, and he seemed to want to make it very clear that he was a prince." Said Kimberly
"Yes, my brother would. " said Renard "Kimberly, what exactly did he say to you?"
"He said that if I didn't hand over my key he would make me and everyone I cared about disappear. So, I gave it to him." Said Kimberly
"You gave him your key!" yelled Nick
"He was going to hurt the ones I love what would you have done?" asked Kimberly
"The same thing… I'm sorry but his having that key means the end of the world as we know it is closer." Said Nick
Mr. Lawrence stands up alarmed "Come again?"
"The world is about to end Mr. Lawrence." Said Nick
" We can slow things down if we get that key back from my brother. But first thing's first. Is there a place you can go for a while until we get this sorted out?" asked the captain
"We have a friend in town who we may be able to stay with." Said Mr. Lawrence
"Good. Go to that friend's house and stay there. Nick, you and Hank keep tracking down my brother." Said Renard
