Janet received her phone from Jessica, very relieved that Anderson hadn’t felt the need to return to the hospital. It was just her and Jessica and she could easily get Jessica to give her some privacy when her sister arrived. Alone in the room as Jessica left to go pick up lunch from her favorite restaurant, she placed a call to the one other woman who she could align with in this situation. Her sister Mandy, picked on the second ring. “Hello… Janet…” Mandy screeched on the other end of the call. “Hello… Mandy.” Janet whispered. “Yeah, what’s the matter? You sound weird.” “Weird, more like trapped. I’m in the hospital.” “Are you alright? What’s wrong with you? We spoke last week and you seemed fine.” Mandy sounded concerned. “I had to fake a heart attack, Mandy, a freaking heart attack” Janet retorted. Bending her neck more to make sure no one in the hallway had heard her. “Why on earth would you fake a heart attack, I’ve always told you, you enjoy drama. Trying to scare

Mandy stepped off the plane in the bustling airport, moving out with purpose. Her fancy heels clicking against the floor of the airport, her presence commanded attention and her features and face gave her an air of authority. She grabbed her luggage and headed outside, she flagged down a cab. “Take me to Regius Hospital please and quickly. I’m in a bit of a hurry.” She said, her face expressionless. The cab driver looked at her through the mirror, their eyes meeting for barely a couple of seconds before he looked away. “You look like some of those old surgeons who come here for some consultation or the other. I wish I could…” “I’ll stop you there, I don’t appreciate the chit chat. Just get me to my destination, quickly and quietly. No talk about the weather, your family, my family or anything apart from instructions. This is not a therapy session.” She adjusted her dress suit as the cab driver nodded. The cab man weaved through the city, after a brief ride, the cab pulled up to t

“So do you have the full story for the job? Remember if anything goes south, just let me know…” Ethan stated. “Yeah. I think I’ve got everything. I’m ready for the job.” Frieda mentioned. Dr. Hensley walked into the room where Ethan was seriously last minute prepping Frieda. “Let’s pray that’s true because you’re the missing piece in our puzzle. Our ultimate weapon and the one in whom the entirety of my work rests on.” He shuffled around the lab and brought out five tiny spray bottles, they could fit in small purses. He handed them over to Frieda. “Hopefully, you don’t get to use them all. Spray once behind each ear, the nape of your neck and your wrists. That should cover it.” Frieda nodded. She kept the bottles in her purse. “So, we’re sorry we need to go through such measures but it is all for the success of the project.” Ethan said to Frieda.Frieda and Ethan left the lab, leaving Dr. Hensley alone. As they drove to the bus station, Ethan and Frieda talked about the plan som

Ethan couldn’t wait any longer. He was supposed to meet up with the goons who would join him to get Aria. There was no way he would be able to pull it off without their help. He told the driver to drive off. There was no need figuring out where Aria was staying, they would pick her off from the cemetery. He met with the guys at a small motel, they were three in number including himself. “The lady in question is a very important cargo. We do not need any scratches on her, your job is simply to grab her and we make a getaway. Then we meet up with the second one. Okay?” “Okay boss. So the lady now is the main one right?”“Yes. That’s exactly what I said. Isn’t it? Keep your head in the game. And you wonder why other people get the jobs and not you. You gotta learn to use your brain.” They had already picked up the truck they would use in the kidnap. “Let’s go boys, it’s a stake and take” one of the guys said.***Aria arrived at the airport and went out to her rented car. It was big

Frieda walked right to the door and knocked. Ethan had sent her the room number after he arrived, this part was going to be the hardest part that she had ever done as a method actress. “Ethan, it's me, Frieda.“ she whispered into the door. Ethan opened the door and she walked in quickly. Two of the guys went out of the room. “I told you you’d get here at the perfect time. I hope you didn’t let anyone important see you.” Ethan asked her. “Not really, just the cab driver. That’s not going to be a problem though. The man seems like a quick work. A drunk to be honest. He’d forget this face quickly.” Frieda replied. “Let’s hope so. You know we have to roughen you up a bit right?” “Yeah. You already mentioned but just so it feels real. Can you tie me to the chair first?” Frieda asked. “It’s not that kind of rodeo girl. But if you prefer it that way. It’s alright. I guess it’s just so it’s easier for you right?” Ethan asked. “Yea. Exactly. I just don’t want my reflexes to take over.”

Alexander was in the fully air conditioned vehicle but he was sweating, he was fidgety and he knew that only when he saw Aria safe and sound, that would be when he would calm down.“That Ethan bastard better not be involved in this or else I would have him in jail for the rest of his life.” Alexander said under his breath. “Sir we’re here.” Lucas said.Alexander, Lucas and the driver got down from the vehicle, sure as day. They found Aria’s rental car at the entrance of the cemetery, there weren’t many people around to ask questions. The driver led them into the cemetery where there was a little security window. They knocked on it to get the attention of the sleeping guard. “Hello. Hello…”The guard jerked out of sleep, “yeah. Yeah. What do you want?” “We are here to ask if you know the owner of the car outside and if you know where she is in the cemetery?” The guard looked outside. “The heck if I know who owns the car but there’s been a few visitors today. Most of them were aroun

“Let me see,” he stretched his hands for the phone. He focused on the screen despite the headache, there was Aria coming in with a bottle of juice and her purse. She had tried to look into the guard office but she didn’t find anyone there so she went in, the video showed the time. There was no footage of her going out. Alexander clicked the link to the footage from the second gate, this one showed nothing from the timeline that Aria entered the cemetery then there was a black c pulled close to the gate. Three men in black came down, the first one he couldn’t quite see his face but he had a feeling that it was Ethan. The other two, he had no idea who they were but he knew they were thugs. They went in and after about five minutes. They came out with Aria and stuffed her in the back of the truck but Aria looked unconscious. “Damn it, they have her.” Alexander said. The driver seemed to speed up the vehicle, Lucas collected his phone and watched the video over and over again. Trying t

Ethan ran as fast as his legs could carry him, he was definitely not going to jail. He really hoped that he could spin this in a way that he’d still get his money. By the time he realized he had reached the ranch, he knew he was in trouble. His luggage was in that room, his passport and every other thing. There was no way that the police would not find out he was involved even if none of the others ratted out on him. All he had was his phone, he had to find a ride to the bus station and get a ticket before they got him. He got into the ranch, wondering what tactics he would use to get a ride to the bus station. He had just a few bucks in his pocket. Not sure if it was enough for the fare to the bus station. Ethan saw one of the farmers on the ranch, he looked around cautiously. His heartbeat was thudding so loudly in his ears, fear has enveloped him. He approached the old man, who was bent over a stack of hay and didn’t even notice Ethan lurking around. It wasn’t until a dog began

Dr. Hensley stood over Aria, watching her as she lay unconscious. She tapped her fingers on the steel table beside her gurney. Her face was getting paler but there was nothing that he could do about that, he couldn’t let her wake up anytime soon. The intravenous drip that supplied nutrients was basically just to make sure that she was getting enough nutrients to stay alive and healthy to an extent. His phone buzzed on the work counter, he moved to pick it up, it was a text. “Alexander and I arrive tomorrow. Don’t forget the gift.” A smile spread across his lips, things were working out rather well. The only plan left was how to eventually exchange Aria for Frieda when he was done with her. Hensley checked the machines monitoring Aria’s vitals. They showed that she was steady, though she was noticeably weaker than she had been a short while ago. He wasn’t too concerned with her, she could last a little longer and as long as she was stable, he would keep up his work. The only thing

“We’re heading back to the city, she comes with us tomorrow whether she’s on board or not.” Alexander said as they passed through the hallway. As they approached Frieda’s room, Alexander moved his shoulders, masking whatever emotion he was going through before putting on a practiced calm. He felt Lucas’s eyes on him, always watching in case he was needed to come in. When they entered, Frieda was seated by the window of her room, the remnants of her meal on the side table of the bed and the note that Alexander had sent her earlier neatly folded by the tray. She looked up with a smile Alexander knew was too perfect, her eyes lit up at the sight of them. “You’re back,” she said softly, her tone laced with a sweetness that Alexander knew was a lie. “Of course, I told you I’d be back.” Alexander replied, stepping closer to her. “I’m sorry I’m late though.” Lucas stayed in the corner of the hospital room, watching intently but making sure he wasn’t obvious. “So, how are you feeling ri

The case file in his hands, Alexander placed it on his lap not knowing if he should quite go through it in the car or at the apartment. Lucas looked through the mirror at Alexander, noticing the tension, Alexander had looked like he was going to rip through the whole case file just moments ago but now his hands hovered over it, hesitant. “Young Master, do you want to look at it now or wait until we get to the apartment perhaps?” Lucas finally asked, breaking the silence in the car.Alexander didn’t answer immediately, he let go of all the air in his lungs, as he traced the edges of the case file. “I think I’d prefer to look at it when we get to the apartment.” He said in a low tone “I don’t think I can do this in the car.” Lucas nodded, “Drive to the apartment…” he mentioned to the driver. Back at the apartment, Lucas looked on as Alexander sat on the table with the case file, the paper looked crisp. The title on the first page read: “Alexander Sinclair - Missing Child Report, 19

The underground laboratory smelled of sweat and chemicals as Dr. Hensley wiped his brow of sweat. His hands trembled slightly, the paralyzed goon lay slumped on the floor near his workbench. The body of the guy was a dead weight that was becoming more trouble for Hensley. “Damn it! You could have tried to attack me towards that area, that way it would have been easier to move you.” Hensley complained. He gripped the man under the arm and attempted to lift him but the man’s size and bulk made the task almost impossible, but Hensley had no choice but to keep trying. Even though no one would stumble on the body in the laboratory, he liked to be able to move easily around his own side of the laboratory. “You could have just left or better still put a call through. I’d have paid you and moved on but now look at you.” He grumbled to the goon on the floor, he dragged the limp figure toward the corner of the lab. The man’s head lolled left and right as he blinked slowly, the only indicatio

Back at the diner, Alexander, Lucas and the driver were finishing their meal when the driver wiped his mouth with a napkin and cleared his throat. “Sir, if I may say something, I might have a suggestion….” Alexander looked up from his meal, a bit intrigued. “Okay. A suggestion about what?” “Well,” the driver started. “I’ve been in the car with you on your different outings since you got here and I hope I’m not overstepping but if you’re trying to jog your memories, there are a couple of inner places that might help.” “Okay. What types of places are you talking about?” “Old places, There’s the old townhouse on Elm Street, it’s still standing and then there’s also the town school. People use the path through the schoolyard to get to the football field so it could be worth a look.” Lucas took a glance at Alexander. “What do you think?”Alexander wiped his mouth with a napkin before nodding. “It’s worth a try.” Lucas sorted the bill and they headed out, the afternoon sun added a la

As soon as they were back in the car and driving off, Alexander’s curiosity piqued, it got the better of him. He tore open the evidence bag and dug out the wallet. “Let’s see what we’ve got here,” Alexander muttered, flipping open the wallet. His eyes immediately found the driver’s license. “Frieda Bane,” he said. “Young Master, do you have an ID?” Lucas asked, turning around in his seat. “Yeah. Her driver’s license. Her name is Frieda Bane,” Alexander repeated, passing the license to Lucas at the front seat.Lucas wasted no time in pulling out his laptop. “Sir, you might want to search for the phone the deputy Sheriff spoke of.” Lucas said, as he quickly typed the name onto his laptop. Alexander dipped his hand right back into the evidence bag and brought out a phone, truly a face like Aria was covered in heavy makeup as the screen saver. He passed the phone to Lucas and collected the driver’s license, he put it back in its position and continued to sift through the wallet. The

“Young Master, perhaps I have a suggestion. Maybe we should visit the police station. Ask about the case file, what do you think? It might hold more information.” Lucas said as they drove through different streets. “You’re right. Mrs Smickums said something about the past sheriffs not being available but the case file would surely be available. Let’s got to the police station then.” The driver turned the car around, the ride to the police station was simple. He didn’t have any memories on this road, that was understandable. It wasn’t like he must have frequented the police station as a child. Alexander sat with his hands on his knees, his mind racing about the possibility of knowing everything at once. “Sir, we’re here.” The driver announced as he pulled into the driveway of the police station. “I’ll find somewhere to park sir.”Alexander and Lucas exited the car, Alexander’s migraine was back now, persistent as always. “Are you okay sir?” Lucas asked. “The migraine is back, let’

Alexander and Lucas had returned to the apartment, they sat in the living room. Lucas was seated at the dining table, his laptop was open and his phone was connected with a short cord, he scrolled through his laptop trying to find the app that could decipher the now deleted call logs from the phone. “Young Master, I’m almost done,” Lucas said, his eyes remaining on the screen. “I just need a few more minutes.” Alexander rubbed his hand over his face. “I don’t know what I’m feeling but it feels like every second we waste is another moment for Hensley to continue doing whatever the fuck he’s doing to Aria right now. She’s somewhere out there and we don’t know where…” Lucas kept on working. “Young Master, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that we find her. I understand your worry and I will make sure we find her as quickly as possible. Hensley and Ethan will rot in jail for this.” Alexander exhaled sharply, the dull ache of his migraine was adding to his anger and frustratio
