Chapter 7: Stopped in his Tracks
At Gazelle's mansion, she was just relaxing. Sophie told her that her schedule was free, and she could do whatever she wanted for the day. Usually she would've been shopping, at the gym, or going to see her fans.
But because of her stalker she had to stay put at her house. She was reading a magazine in her room, Marina was in the kitchen, Sophie was on the phone with Trevor, and Officers McHorn and Higgins were guarding her.
But while they were outside checking the perimeter Lucas was hiding in the bushes. He took out a blow stick, and blew out two tranquilizer darts which hit the two officers, McHorn in the neck and Higgins in the leg.
They both fell to the ground, and were knocked out. Lucas quietly snuck into the house, and spotted Sophie talking on the phone in the living room, and heard Marina in the kitchen. But he didn't see Gazelle, so he figured Gazelle must've been up in her room.
The only thing he was going to get to his true love, were to get Sophie and Marina out of the way.
"Yes, thank you, Trevor." said Sophie, and she hung up her cell phone.
"Hey, Sophie could you come help me with something?" called Marina.
"On my way."
As she walked to the kitchen, Lucas grabbed her from behind, gagging her with a handkerchief. She tried to break free, but Lucas knocked her unconscious, and put her in a closet.
"Sophie, are you coming?" Marina wondered.
When Sophie didn't come she figured something was wrong, so she stepped out, and the minute she did she was hit the jaw by Lucas. Once she was knocked out, he gagged her, and put her in the closet with Sophie.
Once there was nothing in his way, Lucas made his way upstairs. Gazelle had just finished reading her magazine, and she was now on her computer checking her social media pages. She heard the door close behind her.
"Sophie, that you?" asked Gazelle.
When she didn't hear Sophie's voice, she got nervous. She slowly turned around, and screamed when she saw Lucas. He attacked her, and hand cuffed her to her bed.
"Finally, we get to be together my love." he told her.
"Why are you doing this?"
"Because I love you, and you know you love me. You just don't know it yet." Lucas explained.
Outside Nick, Judy, and the other officers had just arrived at the mansion. When they saw McHorn and Higgins on the ground they rushed over to them.
"They're okay, they've just been tranquilized." said Judy.
"This is Officer Fangmyer, we're going to need paramedics at Gazelle's mansion." Fangmyer ordered, into his radio.
They went into the house, and saw that Sophie and Marina were no where in sight. Suddenly they heard banging and muffled voices coming from the closet. Nick opened it, and saw Sophie and Marina tied up and gagged.
Nick put his finger to his mouth, telling them to be quiet, as he got them out, and freed them.
"He's upstairs." whispered Sophie.
The two were sent outside, while Judy, Nick, Delgato, Grizzoli, and Wolford hurried upstairs.
"Please, I don't know you." Gazelle begged.
"But we've been in love for years, didn't you read the letters I sent you?" asked Lucas.
"Just let me go."
"I said you're mine!" yelled Lucas, slamming his paw on the nightstand.
Suddenly, the police broke down the door, and had their stun guns ready.
"Lucas Spots, ZPD!" shouted Nick.
Lucas jumped, and took out a pocket knife, and held it to Gazelle's throat.
"Step away, from Gazelle." Judy ordered.
"Get out of here, she loves me."
"Look at her Lucas, she's scared to death." Wolford told him.
"Don't come any closer. If I can't have her no one will."
"You won't kill her...not if you love her." Nick challenged.
Lucas looked at Gazelle and back at the officers. He stepped back and lowered the knife.
"Now put the knife on the ground." Grizzoli told him.
But in a split second he cut Gazelle's arm, and Delgato shot him with his stun gun. Wolford and Grizzoli apprehended Lucas, and Nick, Judy, and Delgato freed Gazelle.
Outside paramedics attended to Sophie, Marina, and Gazelle, and officers took Lucas into custody. Chief Bogo had arrived to see what had happened, and was currently talking to Gazelle.
"Well Gazelle, looks like Lucas Spots won't be bothering you anymore." he said.
"I can't thank you or the ZPD enough, Chief Bogo." Gazelle told him.
"It was our pleasure, Gazelle." replied Judy.
"That's what we're here for." Nick added.
Gazelle smiled gratefully, she could finally go back to her ordinary life as a pop star.
