Note: Thank you so much kittydog for finding the time to read this. I waited since June from where I began the first chapter in hopes you would find it. I tried to ask in twitter and youtube but I had no luck until now. I hope you like the rest of the story. Now on to chapter 11!

Chapter 11: The Great Escape

Potion and Horn as well as me were struggling to escape our ropes but with the flames rising quickly, I only knew we didn't have much time left. "We need to find a way to get Boob in here," said Potion.

"Try to stay silent," I replied. "It takes more air to speak. We need to preserve as much as we can but you are right."

"We do know that 6 didn't find Boob," added Horn. "But I don't know if they know how much danger we are in right now." At the same time, I was looking for a way to contact Boob. The structure of the burning building were leaving spaces of light to shine through. I noticed that there were now objects that appeared to be holographic. This gave me an idea.

"Quick," I exclaimed. "Move as much debris as you can. I'm going to call Boob by sending a holographic image of the danger." With us still tied up, we managed to move a lot of debris. "Great! Now let's see if this works." I got out my phone and the light from outside shining on the debris reflected onto it. This triggered Boob's phone to ring.

"Hello," Boob answered on his phone. The holographic image appeared on this phone. "What the heck?"

"Boob," I said. "It was a trap. I know who the main villain is now and they tied us up in a burning building. Thank god that you weren't seen. We need you to come save us now. Potion is struggling to stay conscious. Help us Boob, you are our only hope."

"Please dad," added Potion. "I'm dying."

"I got your message and on my way," said Boob. He turned off his phone and ran towards the burning building.

"I hope he can save us in time," said Potion.

"Same," I replied. "It's really only me and you that needs to be saved."

"I wish I could've helped," said Horn. "But the ropes are very strong."

"Yeah," I added. Boob was now right at the entrance of the building but before he ran inside, he checked his surroundings to make sure he wasn't being watched too. He seemed it was safe and ran inside. We were able to hear the running and made it our goal to get Boob to follow the sound of our voices.

"Boob," we all said. "We are down in the basement tied up on a wall."

"I hear your voices," replied Boob. "I'm coming to rescue you." The structure of the building was collapsing as we waited with floorboards splitting and falling right in front of us. Now I was starting to fall into an unconscious state. Potion was out now and only Horn was still sane.

"Hey," shouted Horn. "Wake up. Stay with me." But it was no use. We were slowly dying from the flames. Just then, Boob barged into the basement with the door making a SLAM sound.

"I'm here," said Boob.

"They can't move," said Horn. "The flames are too much for them and these ropes are impossible to untie."

"Leave it to me," replied Boob. He span his bow tie to create some energy. Enough energy to create strength to release the ropes. Finally, enough was created and he untied the ropes. That was only step one of the rescue. Step two was to get us out.

"Quick Horn," said Boob. "Assist the detective and I'll grab my daughter." Horn grabbed me and put my arm around hers as Boob grabbed Potion. We ran up the stairs to the door as they fell apart behind us. The door was only a few feet away. We were almost out at this point. When we got out, it was just in time because the building completely collapsed right behind us. The rescue wasn't over yet because we needed to know the status of Potion. Boob gently placed her on the floor and checked for breathing. Boob gave a sigh of relief when he found out she was.

"Phew," exclaimed Boob. "My daughter is still alive but there's nothing I can do now."

"Maybe I can help," said another figure. Boob turned around to see it was Lighght, the nusre

"How did you know about this," questioned Boob.

"I saw the smoke in the distance and wondered if anyone needed my help,"Lighght answered. "And appears Potion does." She inspected Potion and said to Boob that no major injuries occurred from the smoke. "Potion should be with us again in at least 30 minutes. I can stay here until then just in case if you want?"

"I would like that," I answered. "And thank you for getting here very quickly."

"I'm just doing my job," Lighght replied. We waited for 30 minutes and then Potion was regaining her senses.

"I'm I dead," questioned Potion. "Is this heaven?"

"Potion," Boob teared up. "Please give your father a hug. The flames almost took you away from me." Lighght knew her job was finished now and went away so Boob and Potion could have their moment. This made me tear up too.

"So now that I know I'm not dead," said Potion. "Does Boob know who trapped us?"

"I do not," Boob answered.

"It was all planned by 6," I put in. "Plus Bluewafflecopter is in it too."

"Not 6," exclaimed Boob. "Why them?"

"Don't know," I answered.

"Did we solve the mystery," questioned Potion.

"We are far from solving this," I answered. "We still need to find Crystal and capture 6 as well as Fluffy Hater and Bluewafflecopter. I guess we found my Moriarty (Sherlock Holmes' villain). Follow me guys we have somewhere to go."

"Where," questioned Boob.

"The popo," I answered. "We got some evidence that may change their mind."

"How," questioned Potion. "We can't prove what 6 said."

"Never doubt the detective," I answered as I pulled out my Google Pixel 7 (my irl phone). "I recorded the whole thing 6 said but we are missing something in his plan."

"What's that," questioned Potion.

"A motive," I answered. "A motive is why someone would do a crime. I'll be able to crack it soon but right now we should get back to the popo. The more support we have, the better the outcome would be." And so we made our way back to Sraivo.

What will we say to Sraivo? Will he reopen the case? Find this out in two chapters because it's time to introduce a motive. What is 6's motive? Find out in the next chapter.
