The elevator was silent as me and Dallevante were taken out of the lobby and up into the hotel. The cops hold us both away from each other and with their arms interlinked with ours. I felt as the elevator stopped and the elevator door opened. I saw that we were on the top floor of the hotel. We were marched out and the cops holding me took me to a door, while Dallevante was taken further down. The old cop fished out a card from his pocket and waved it in front of the scanner. It beep and he opened the door. Inside was a regular looking room, like the one me and Clayton shared.
"This will be your new home for a while" The old officer said
I didn't respond as I was pushed into the room.
"You have a bed and bath. We get you food. If you leave here without a supervisor, you will just be stuck here longer. Understand?"
I didn't respond
"I said, do you understand?" The officer repeated
I kept my mouth closed
The officer figured that it would be a waste of time trying to talk to me, so he motioned for the other officer to undo my handcuffs. My arms flopped to my sides and the two excited my new jail cell.
"YALL, REALLY THINK YOU CAN JUST KEEP ME HERE?! I WAS THE ONE ATTACKED, DUMBASS THIS IS UNLAWFUL IMPRISONMENT." Dallevante was taking the opposite aboarch I did.
While hearing his screaming, I took a look around. I saw a bed,nightstand, and a tv that probably didn't work.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Dallevante screamed and crackling can be heard.
"Sounds like they tasing him" I thought
I saw on the bed, it was warm and comforting. Making me luckier than most prisoners. I searched the nightstand. Inside was an eye mask,breath mints, a bible, lip plam,water, earbuds, and pen and paper.
I turned from the nightside and got up to look out the windows. Opening the blinds, I tried to push the window open but the lock was in the way. I looked at it to see that it was tampered with. He couldn't unlock it.
"They had this planned, not for us obviously, but still" I thought.
I went over to the door to see if I could sneak out. Jiggling with the doorknob proved that wasn't gonna work. They somehow locked the door from the outside.
"Probably got something up against it"
Feeling defeated more than usual, I went back and got in the bed. Trying my best to go to sleep.

"Clay, you saw what happened" Zima said
"I know. But those that seem like the guy you were just talking to yesterday?" Clayton questioned
Zima went quiet for a second and responded "I don't know,ok?"
"We don't know the history between those two. We have on idea what was said, so let's not jump to conclusions"
"Conclusions? You saw the other guy"
"Who we don't know"
"This plan is still stuipd"
"We are not gonna break him out. We gonna break in and ask him a few questions"
"And get caught?"
"Not if we do it right"
"I'm sorry, I can't do that. My parents already hate you."
"They won't know"
"Ok,Clay"
"Ok, i'll go and talk to him"
"What?, no! Thats stupid"
"I just want his side of the story"
"Listen, we learn everything in due time"
"Yeah, form the cops that don't want to tell us anything"
"I am not asking you to trust them. Buts they our best source of information"
Clay looked exhausted with the situation, but inside knew Zima was right.
"OK, But i still gonna talk to Aston"
"Ok, i'll help you when you get caught"
Clayton flashed a smile at Zima and turned to Ann.
"Nope, I'm on her side. You don't know where he's at or even how to get to him if you did"
"I improve," Clayton said as he slipped out of the girls' room.
