Nothing! We found absolutely nothing. I don't understand. He has to be around here somewhere. Marie's father called, he was having as big of a break down as me. He said I promised to save his little girl and I had been failing, my heart broke at his words.
He was right I failed her. I broke my promise and just like my dreams I find myself arriving too late. After he calmed down he said after the video was played police are finally looking for Marie and Randy. I told him about what we have done, I promised him I would keep fighting till I saved Marie.
I told him I wanted to turn myself in to Randy if it meant Marie could be safe but he agreed with Michael saying that was crazy and even there is a possibility that Randy will kill her as well. That he would not risk being caught, I realized he was right. But there is still one person that can help us. The backstabber! I have to talk to AJ soon. I am 100% sure he knows exactly where Randy is hiding.
It has been four hours since we found him. The doctors removed the bullets and gave him all the help he needs but he is still in a delicate state. The doctors said that we should let him sleep for a while to regain strength but time is ticking and I can't keep waiting. Not when my princess's life is in danger.
I walk into the room where AJ is laying and I look at the doctor. He gulps no matter how many times they help us they always seem to be scared of me. "Wake him up!" I command the doctor. "But sir if-" "I said wake him up now!" I yell. He tries to speak again. "Sir if I do that there is a chance his life might be in danger. He is in critical state." He replied, his voice shaking and his eyes looking everywhere but at me.
Aggravated at the fact that he won't listen to my commands I pull a gun out and point it towards him. I am sick of this shit. I am sick of waiting. I either get what I want of I will get rid of everyone. No one will stand in the way of me saving my princess. "Do I look like I care? I am not going to say it again, wake him up!" I am done playing games. "Yes sir" he replied. He then pulls out a syringe and injects him in the neck. Seconds later AJ wakes up grunting in pain.
"Get out" I command and the doctor does not hesitate to run out of the room. As AJ hears my voice his eyes widen. I can see fear plastered all over his face. His breathing gets faster and heavier. I should be happy that he is scared and knows I mean business but right now all I can feel is anger and disgust for his betrayal. He is lucky I need answers or I would put a bullet in his head right now.
"Luke I-" he tried to speak but shuts up when he sees me point the gun at his head. "You backstabbing piece of shit. I trusted you. I trusted you to take care of the one thing I love the most. Why AJ? We were like brothers, why did you do it?!" I yelled. I must have been very loud because not even a second later Michael barges into the room with a gun in his hand.
"Answer me!" I command him. As I yelled I glared at him with the looks that said I am going to kill you, and in that second that is all I wanted to do. "For her. I did it for her!" He yelled but immediately regretted it as he winced and cried in pain. Even the morphine could not protect him from the pain he would feel because at that moment I couldn't help myself, so I punched him straight in the face.
"Shadow calm down. Breath, stay in control." Michael spoke to me while pulling me back. "Let me go" I scream "I'm going to kill him." "Shadow stop" he yelled at me but I couldn't contain myself. "For her? Fuck you how was this for her? She is being tortured you motherfucker. Tell me how was this for her?!"
Randy had been hurting Marie and this backstabbing bastard is really telling me he did this for her? I am really trying hard to control myself but he is making this difficult. I am seconds away from putting a bullet in his small brain. AJ was breathing fast I could see he was in pain and that made me happy. He should suffer, he should suffer just like my princess is because of him.
"Shadow you need to control yourself, you know that. Let me do this!" Michael whispered. I paced back and forth for about a minute before nodding and sitting in a corner of the room trying to control my anger. *Think of Marie, Think of Marie, Think of Marie.* I kept telling myself. Thinking of her and how she would be disappointed if I lost control again was the only thing that helped during times like this.
"Okay AJ, I am going to make this simple. I am not Shadow Cat, you never meant shit to me and you know that. So you either answer my questions or I will show you what real pain feels like. Get it, got it, Good! Let's begin." Michael then pulls out a knife and brings a chair closer to AJ's bed. "So here is the first question and I think we are all wondering this. You said you did this for her? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Explain that us and from the beginning."
AJ was still trying to catch his breath but Michael both refused to wait and wanted to make a point of it. He is quick to push his knife slightly in one of the bullet wounds in his chest. I hear AJ scream in pain and that fills me with happiness. That is my brother. "AJ you should know I really hate waiting." He looks at me and I give him a smirk as a saying that I approve. After his betrayal all I want is for him to suffer worse than my princess is.
"He found me..." AJ struggled to speak as he kept breathing hard. This time way worse than before as pain filled his body. His heart rate picking up as the machines made warning noises. "2 months ago... he found me..." He cried in pain. "That's when... I found out... he was still alive" I clench my fist in anger. 2 months? He knew for 2 fucking months and didn't tell me?
Lord help me, give me patience or I will kill this worthless pig right here, right now. "He... had me cornered... I couldn't... run... He wanted me to... turn you in... but I said no..." And yet you did. You gave him the only reason I have to live. You gave him my world, my entire life. I kept thinking but said nothing.
"I swear...I said no..."
