Chapter 31

“ahhhhhhhh” I  scream. Without noticing who it is, I right hook the figure and I hear a familiar voice swear

“What the fuck is wrong with you?” Avan whispers, holding his noise in pain

“Shit Avan, Why the fuck didn’t you answer me when I called you?”

“Cause unlike you, I actually want to get in and get out without getting notice .Your screaming isn’t helping” Avan says

“What the fuck are you doing back here anyways?” I ask

“Looking for a way in”

“The door, I got it open” I say, I slowly walk to the front with Avan behind me. I reach the door and slowly push . It creeps open. I look both ways before I enter the house and I slowly creep in .

“Alex” I whisper slightly, hoping to hear her. Avan punches me from the back, putting his pointer finger on his lips and telling me to shut up.

“How will we know where she is then, if we can’t hear her” I whisper back and he pushes me again and points at his eyes. I glare at him. He takes the lead and we slowly circle the room. It looks like we enter in a stone living room. There’s a nasty, smelling couch in one corner and a small TV  in  another. There are beer cans and god only knows what else is littered all over the room. I mistakenly breathe through my noise and I almost fainted because of the stench. I cover my noise with my shirt but the nasty odor still gets through the cotton of my shirt. No sane person can live in this stench. We turn a corner and enter what looks like to be a crappy kitchen. We keep walking around the house, and after making sure no ones in it. I look towards the wooden steps

“I’m going to go look upstairs” I say to Avan.

“Alright, I’m going to go look around the living room some more. Maybe we can find a clue” He says

“A clue? We’re looking for Alex. We don’t have time to act like fucking Sherlock homes” I say a little irritated

“I’m going to look for clues to see where Alex might b, asshole and no one insults Sherlock homes… No one..” He says and I roll my eyes and start up the creaky steps. Every time I take a step, it creaks and by the 5th one, I’m cussing the stupid stairs. I slowly make my way up the stairs and let a relived sigh that I made it up the stairs without getting anyone to notice me, although at this point I’m pretty sure that no ones in the house. I walk down the small corridor. All the doors are closed and I’m scared to open them. I get to the first one and put my hand on the door

“Come on you can do it. For Alex” I say to myself. I hold my breath and slowly open the door, I open it enough that I can peak a little bit inside but anyone on the other side would not notice that the door had opened. Realizing no one was inside, I slowly exhale and open the door wider and notice that it’s just an empty room. I go through this procedure with the next 2 rooms. I stop at the end of the hallway, in front of the smallest room. It can’t be a room. At this point, I’m ready to give up , my hope and faith gone.

“Alex where are you?” I say to myself. I put my hands on my head and exhale loudly. That when I hear a faint nose. I freeze up, thinking that I may be wrong and someone is in the house. I start to move towards the stairs, slowly as possible until I hear a faint voice trying to say my name

“Jo…o..sh…” The voice weakly says.  I freeze up, my heart starting to pump three times faster than it was just a second ago

“Alex” I whisper back and I hear a faint moan. I walk towards the door and put my ear against the door

“Alex?” I say again but this time louder. I get a groan in return and that’s when I finally realize that it is Alex. I turn the handle but it’s locked. I push and shove the door but it won’t open.

“Jo….sh…..h…h.elp” Alex cries, this time her voice more audible and all  reasoning and sense fly’s out of my head and I start to manically ram the door. Nothing happens. The door stands strong as ever, and I’m pretty sure my shoulder now has a bruise. There must be a key.

“Alex, I’ll be right back” I say and run down the stairs. I go down the stairs to the basement, finding Avan digging through some papers

“What the fuck are you doing? I found Alex, but she’s locked behind a wooden door. Help me find he key” I yell and he wordlessly follows be up the stairs and we start to look around. After 5 minutes of looking around. I start to cuss, getting frustrated. The guy might be any second and here we are in his living room, defenseless.

“Calm down Josh. We need to think rationally” Avan says

“How the fuck are we going to fucking find that fucking key. We looked everywhere. Her fucking brother may be back any fucking second and were standing here like fucking idiots” I yell. I don’t think I have sworn that much ever.

“Hold on her brother? I need to speak to her” He says and takes the stairs two at a time.

“She can’t speak” I yell up to him but its useless. I cuss again and start to look around again; cussing every time I come up empty handed. After 2 minutes Avan comes back down.

“What happened?’ I ask him. He doesn’t say anything but goes to the kitchen. He starts looking in the cabinets

“No one would put a key in the kitchen. It’s too easy to find” I say to him but he continues to search. He looks through all the cabinets and on top of the fridge.

“Where the hell can it be?’ He stops and scratches his head .

“This is useless, you’re wasting my time” I say. I start to walk back to the living room when Avan tells me to turn around. I do and I can’t believe what I’m seeing. He holds a small golden key in his hands. My eyes widen and I run and grab it

“How did you know it would be here?” I ask

“Elementary my dear Watson” He says smirking.

“I love you and your obsessions” I say and we both run up the stairs. We get to the room and slowly open the door. When my eyes lay on Alex, I want to cry, punch her bastard of a brother , cuss and fall to my knees all at the same time.

“Fuck” Avan says as he enters the room

It’s not even big enough to be called a room. There is chair at one end and on the other a pillow with a blanket on the floor. This is what Alex lays on. I slowly walk over to her, afraid to even breathe to hard, scared I may hurt her. She looks so weak and frail. She’s covered in bruises, from head to toe and dried up blood. She wears a thin bra and some ripped pants. A pink shirt laying on the floor. She is so skinny that you can see her spine and it almost makes me want to gag. She has her eyes closed and she’s breathing heavily

“Alex” I whisper, tears in my eyes. She slowly opens her eyes and I see that her eyes are blood shot.

“Josh”  She mumbles. I reach out for her and touch her face and she cringes in pain.

“I’m going to fucking kill that bastard” I say, rage seeping through my whole being. I will make him cry and grovel on knees to what he has done to Alex.

“Josh, we need to get her out of here before he gets back” Avan says pushing my shoulder, but all I see is red. My hand starts to shake in rage. After seeing Alex like this, I’m not scared to face that monster; in fact I’m looking forward to seeing him.

“Take her Avan, I’m staying here” I say

“Josh, don’t be an idiot, you’re going get yourself killed” Avan says. He picks up the shirt that was on the floor and slowly pulls it over Alex to cover her. Her cries of pain, just adds fuel to the fire inside of me

“Don’t worry; I’m not going to get hurt. Just take her to the hospital” I say, balling my fingers into a fist.

“Josh, you’re not thinking rationally. Come one we need to go” he says. Pushing me towards Alex

“I’m not fucking going” I yell, my anger starting to seep through

“J..osh… I…need….y..yo..u” Alex whispers. She slowly reaches out to limply hold the bottom of my jeans.  My get down on my knees and hold her hand.

“I’m not going to leave you again” I whisper to her and lightly kiss her forehead. She weakly smiles

“Ok, I need to pick you up. It may hurt a little bit but close your eyes and it will be over fast” I say placing my hands under her. If putting a shirt over her head made her cry, this no doubt will cause her pain. I slowly pick up her and I can feel her go stiff in my arms. She cringes and starts to whine. I hold her in a her comfortable position for her, causing her face to be near my face.

“You can open your eyes” I say and she slowly opens her eyes

“We need to get the hell out of here now” Avan says and I nod. I make a mental note to come back and finish her brother off later. I will not let this go

“Where the fucks are the police anyways? They should be here by now” Avan says

“Probably stopped for some donuts” I say back sarcastically

“Yeah, probably eating their sorrows away about how they can’t get laid” Avan laughs. I crack smile that is until I see a huge figure appear from behind Avan. I freeze in terror and Alex stops breathing, she cowers lower in my arms, turning into a ball. Un-known to Avan, he continue to laugh until he notices our expressions

“What..?” He ask

“Avan.. Move” I say slowly

“Why?” He asks and he finally looks around. His eyes go wide and he walks backwards towards us

“I knew you would come…” The guys said. This guy was not normal. He was like body of muscles on steroids

“Fuck, were dead. Tell my mom I loved her” Avan says.

“Your mommy won’t ever know ya loved her cause that fuckers going to die too” The muscle on steroids laughed. I stand straight up, glaring at him.

“Fuck you” I say, looking directly at him. The guy smiles and gets this scary ass look on his face. I stand straight not backing down. I hold on to Alex a bit tighter and move her so she is covered by my body. I will not let anything happen to her

"Indiana Jones had it easy..."

i feel so bad neglecting the protagonist of my comic. that's what happens when you develop the villains more. Chaoter Hazardnovic is from the first book, his political nightmare begins when he returns from an expedition; only to find his house turned to rubble via stray missile. his koi pond was also not spared. in Zentrum, animals are tightly regulated, it takes two years to obtain a permit for koi. Chaoter's journey begins from there, to question the new political party who called themselves the CHAOS Organization.

and punch the 2nd-in-command in the face.

Hippocrates also hates Chaoter because he destroys his 'children'.

a common occurence during Zentrum's political uprising were the 'teatime treaties' hosted by Hippocrates. he was always busy making unethical weaponry in the name of love and progress so this was the only way to hold a peace talk between the Archaian government and CHAOS. (who at that time, bombed and helped their way into the hearts of the people).
