CHAPTER 9

“Hello?”  Dwight was perplexed when she answered the phone.  The last he knew, his number was unlisted, and it couldn’t be a friend calling, he didn’t have any.  So, who the fuck would be calling me?

“Do you have any information yet?” 

“Xavier how did you get my number?”  Dwight all but growled.

“Dude, you have had the same number for years!  Stop being so paranoid.”  Xavier chuckled.

Dwight couldn’t believe that he had remembered his number!  Damn! Dude had an impeccable memory…looks like I’ll just have to change my number then!  “It’s not safe to talk over the phone, how fast can you be here?”

“How fast can you get to the front door?”

Dwight hung up the phone while heading toward the front door, swearing the whole way.  Only Xavier could piss him off this much!  “You are a real asshole, you know that!  Why didn’t you just tell me that you were at my front door in the first place?”  Dwight all but spat as he opened the door.

“Well, if I didn’t, I do now!  I guess that I just like messing with you, I’m sorry.”  Xavier knew that he probably shouldn’t be annoying the one person that is helping him, but he couldn’t’ resist.

Dwight rolled his eyes.  “Get you ass inside before I change my mind about helping you!”  Dwight stepped away from the doorway long enough to let Xavier inside, then he bolted the door shut again.

“So…are you going to let me in on what you have found?”  Xavier asked.

“Well so far all I found out is that this guy is seriously terrifying!  He is really good at covering his tracks, he has at least three aliases’ maybe more.  He has an extensive knowledge of torture techniques as well as anatomy.” 

Xavier could tell that Dwight was scared to death of this guy; his voice trembled as he spoke.

“There is something else that I found out.”  Dwight shifted his stance uncomfortably.

Xavier didn’t understand why Dwight was so uncomfortable, but after a couple of minutes of silence, Xavier got annoyed.  “Well, what is it?”  Dwight still didn’t answer.  “I don’t have time for this shit Dwight just spit it out!”

Dwight finally looked into his stare.  “Xavier, this guy is escalating!  He is unpredictable, which make him extremely dangerous, and he is not afraid of getting caught!”  Dwight had real fear for Sierra, especially since this guy has his sights set of her.
