Jane was left in the dark with no idea of where Lucas had gone to. Her parents have gone to bed and she was left alone sitting on Lucas’ bed wondering where he is. The night was chilly. The chilly night howled through the open window. She quickly got up to shut the window. Her best thought was that Lucas might have gone out through the window. She can’t still place her mind where he might be. She became worried. At first, she thought he might have gone back to the strange land he told her about a while ago. Her main concern was the safety of Lucas. A lot has been going on in New Orleans and she doesn’t want him to fall victim to that. She thought of the best way to help. She finally made up her mind to call Detective White. “Hello Mr. White, Lucas is missing,” she said over the phone. Detective White already had a rough day. His encounter in the woods has left him wondering. He has spent all day in the station going through some case files. It’s now clear to
Detective White was lost that he couldn’t help. He reluctantly drove off without bothering to send Jane away. He didn’t want to miss the dispatch call. The last dispatched call was described as a ‘wild beast in human form maiming innocent citizens.’ He didn’t want to miss out. At least if what the dispatch call said is true, he will not have difficulties in proving to his department that werewolves are in existence. They finally came to a stop at Bailey Avenue. Detective White pulled over beside the police barricade. He turns off his ignition. With a serious look on his face, he said to Jane: “You stay in the car!”“I’m coming!”“No, you are not! Don’t you get it, do you? This is police official business!” Detective White walks out of the car and slams shut the door leaving Jane inside the car. He makes his way to the lead detective who first arrives at the scene. He flashed his badge to identify himself. “Detective White,” he said.“Detective Carter.” They both
It was an old woman. She was lying helpless in the restroom. Detective White couldn’t help but wonder what the old woman was doing here? “Ma’am, are you alright? This is Detective White!” His Akdal Ghost TR01 was held firmly between his sweaty fingers. The light was still flickering that he could barely see. He was bold enough to enter the dark restroom to check on the old woman. “Is anyone here with you?” “Talk to me, ma’am!” Obviously, Detective White arrived late. His gaze was drawn to the hole in the old woman’s left chest with her heart gone. “Fuck!” he exclaimed. He didn’t know what to do but was certain that the suspect is still in the building. He steeled his failing nerves and breathed out a puff of cold air and sprang back to his feet and continued with his search. He noticed a weird movement behind him. He quickly flicked around steadying his Akdal Ghost TR01 and ready to pull the trigger but there was no one. As he turned around to c
The multiple gunshots continued as Detective White passed through the alley. He instinctively ducked behind a dumpster taking cover. From the dumpster, he peeped to see who his colleagues were shooting at. A bloodcurdling scream escaped from the shadowy alley behind him before he could get a response from his team after he radioed demanding to know what was happening. His heart raced inside him as beads of cold sweat streamed down his smooth cheeks. With his years of experience as a cop, he has never experienced such gunplay before. He needed to know who it was that screamed. He caught a glimpse of a corpse of a young lady wrapped in red clothes. Only her head and neck were exposed after being wrapped. At this time, he was lost and couldn’t make any sense of the situation at hand. He has seen an old woman dead with her heart gone. Now another corpse of a young lady amid multiple gunshots. Blood was coming out from her neck. From the look of thi
It’s over 14 days after the incident at Bailey Avenue. Detective White has got his apartment back. Lucas seems happy having their apartment back. He might have gotten their apartment back but he lost his relationship with Jane. They are no longer on talking terms after Jane found out he had affairs with Bonnie. She would have easily dismissed the incident and forgiven him if she never used her ability to experience what happened in the inn. She felt cheated on. To her, Lucas’ heart belongs to Bonnie. If they made out in the inn and also in Bonnie’s apartment in New Orleans, then she’s never meant to be with Lucas. Lucas has been doing all he can to make peace with Jane. The last time he visited, Jane yelled at him: ‘I can’t be with a cheat like you!’ she slammed the door to his face. She’s heartbroken seeing the one she has feelings for with another girl. She thought she was having a nightmare. It all became clear to her when she had a flash of a vision of
Without waiting for her to say a word, he pulled her to a corner. “Start talking, who told you that?” His mind began to go wild. Since he’s not in talking terms with Jane, it could have been her. Perhaps she just wants him to make more enemies by revealing his secrets. “Nobody told me.” “Then how in the hell did you know that?” “If you are curious to know, I will tell you, but…” “Oh come on no ‘but.’” “I will tell you after school.” “Oh come, why wait that long? You said my life depends on it.” “Yes, it does. That’s why you have to play by my rules.” “Fine then, after school it is.” “Yeah, after school, in your house.” “Why my…” Their conversation was interrupted by Jack as he approaches with Philip. “Well well well! Look who we have here?” Jack makes his way to Lucas. Standing face to face. Toe to toe with him as he stares at him with a stone face gaze. “I thought I warned you to stay away from my girl, didn’t I?” said Jack. “You know you can’t jus
Lucas came home for the day with Alicia. He wasn’t comfortable bringing her home. He just didn’t want any trouble with Jack. He just wants to stay on his own. Because he was so determined to know how Alicia came to find out about his secret, he didn’t care much about what Jack will say or do. “So, here we are… Tell me how…” Before Lucas could finish speaking, Alicia pulls herself to him and kissed him. Lucas tried to make her stop but she pushed him to the couch. She joins him as well. Lying on him, he started kissing him again and at the same time rubbing his chest. “Stop, just stop!” Lucas pushes her away. He rose to his feet narrowing his eyes on her. “What are you trying to do?” “Can’t you see I haven’t forgotten about you? I still…” “Stop! All I see is a setup. What’s the catch?” “Forget it!” Alicia angrily rose to her feet and picks up her backpack. She glanced at Lucas and said: “Your hatred for me will get you killed. You will never know what’s coming.”
Jane was devastated walking in on Lucas making out to someone they believe was his enemy. She couldn’t say a word as tears rolled down her cheek. She only came to inform Lucas that she has forgiven him only to see more reasons not to forgive him. She didn’t want Lucas to come any close to her. She left and slammed the door after her. “Oh no!” Lucas cried out in a disappointed tone falling back to the couch with both hands on his head. “What was that all about?” asked Alicia. With Alicia able to manifest a psychic ability, she could easily get information out from Lucas without asking. She chose not to. She just wants Lucas to be the one to tell her. Lucas glanced at Alicia. “It’s a long story,” he said. He made his way to the couch and threw himself on the couch. He covered his face in shame and at the same time felt remorse. He didn’t expect Jane to show up. He just got busted. Getting busted didn’t feel good. Alicia joins him on the couch. She sat at the e
