Another short chapter to follow on from "Good luck" I will try and make the chapters longer but I'm new to writing, also there may be mistakes, thank you all so much for your brilliant reviews
Fear, the emotion that grips people the most, the emotion that nobody likes to feel. Sharon was brought back to reality by the thud of her phone dropping to the floor, her body was frozen she couldn't move, she knew she had to get Andy and tell him what happened but the fear was taking over her body, even with all the training sharon has had over her career and her ability to forget about any emotion she was feeling, sharon was a mother, a mother who's son was in danger. "Sharon, Sharon what's wrong?" Andy grabbed sharon by the shoulders and looked in her eyes, she was stood completely still, he didn't think Sharon had even noticed he was there, her face was blank, she was pale, "he's got rusty, he's got my son andy".
"Rusty...time to wake up rusty, wakey wakey". Rusty woke up hearing the gruff voice of Philip stroh, his head pounding, his whole body aching, as he opened his eyes he wished it was all just a bad dream but as he looked around him he realised it was all real. "Mamma phoned, isn't that cute?". Rusty heard what stroh said but didn't reply mostly because he didn't have the energy. "Come on get up let's go for a walk" stroh orderd as he pulled rusty to his feet.
Andy picked up Sharon's phone from the floor and took hold of her hand, it was like she was frozen, the strong steadfast police captain he knew was now fragile, "Sharon look at me" andy grabbed told of her face and gently pulled her towards him, "stroh is playing a game, he won't hurt rusty I promise you" he gently stroked Sharon's face softly bringing her back to reality "your right he won't hurt him, he's just trying to scare me, well it's not going to happen" with that sharon grabbed her phone and headed towards the front door. Andy walked to the coffee table to get his own phone and dialed for fritz and told sharon he would meet her downstairs at the car.
As sharon got in the elevator she tried to think of a plan, she had to make sure her and the team worked quickly and effectively in a way that wouldn't put rusty in anymore danger, during Sharon's years with the police she's worked countless cases like this but with her own son being in the middle of it made everything more real and put more pressure on Sharon to do everything right and make no mistakes, a mistake could cost her rustys life and that was something she never wanted to be by her own actions.
As sharon entered the parking garage in her building she had a sence she wasn't alone, it might just be her mind playing tricks but she had a horrible feeling it wasn't, sharon took her next steps wisely and tried to be as quite as she could, as she came closer to her car she could feel the burning of somebody else's eyes on her body, she turned round and scoured the parking lot but couldn't see anyone or anything out of the ordinary but something didn't feel right, she had a feeling that she shouldn't be there, as she turned to face her car again she decided to phone Andy she knew he was locking up the condo and she knew he wasn't far behind her but she still phoned just to be on the safe side "Hay sharon, you ok? I'm just in the elevator." Andy could tell just by the fact that sharon was phoning that something was wrong, why would she phone when she knew he was just behind her? "Andy I think somebodys here" Sharon made herself barely audible, "what do you mean sharon" Andy wondered if maybe sharon was just frightend by the phone call with stroh and her mind was playing tricks on her, stroh wouldn't be that stupid. "Andy sombodys here, I think someone's following me andy" with a loud thud the phone went dead "Sharon... Sharon!" Andys heart skipped, the elevator was on the last floor before the garage, it felt like time had stopped, he hit the elevator wall willing it to move faster, as the doors opened he took out his gun and made tracks to Sharon's car, maybe she just panicked and ran to her car, as he neared the spot her car was usually parked he saw something on the floor, Sharon's phone. Andy felt his chest tightening and a pain in his stomach, he tried to reassure himself, maybe sharon noticed whoever was following her and dropped her phone and ran to the other elevator on the other side of the garage, Sharon's smart she wouldn't let somebody take her. Andy noticed her car he pointed his gun at the vehicle and took small steps towards it as he got closer he noticed something stuck to the window on the drivers side, it looked like a note. He put his gun away and took the note off the window, a sence of dread came over him as he read the words...
"Catch me if you can"
