Chapter 48 - Locked Up.

"Ouch!" Denzel kept shrieking each time his feet stepped on something sensitive.

Owl walked, not even taking note of any of Denzel's reactions.

They both got to the front of a gate, in it was a building, that's wasn't too big and also not small, it had a moderate size.

Any random person that saw that building would think it was owned by a very rich person.

'Wow...' Denzel thought looking at the building that was painted with a cream colour.

On a little screen at the side of the gate, Owl placed his index finger on it, and then his thumb, and the gate opened.

Walking through it, they reached the door of the building, Owl then opened another little screen.

In that one, Owl opened his right eye and closed the other one. It seemed like it scanned his eyeball. What came after was a beep and the door opened.

Everywhere seemed quite organised at first, it showed on Denzel's face how much he adored the place. It was only a second it took for him before he realised what he was there for.

"Wait here," Owl said to Denzel as he opened a door that was at their front. Denzel took a peek inside the room, what he saw left him with questions.

The room was filled with computers, each showing four different segments of videos.

It didn't take seconds before Denzel knew what they were. They were footage of all the CCTV around Hilldale.

'Just who is Leia?' He thought, looking around it. The footage on the computer just at the front of the chair showed the last location where Denzel and Leia had their fight, the one next to it was the location of Grayson's house.

Denzel was still looking at the computers when he was interrupted by Owl, who came to his front and shut the door behind him.

"Let's go." Denzel followed him, still gazing around the house.

They got into another room, where they both entered. Owl moved towards a wardrobe, opened it, moved some clothes, and pushed the back of the wardrobe.

It moved back a little, then Grayson was able to move it like a sliding door, revealing another room inside of it.

In there was a completely unoccupied room, with different doors in the room.

Owl entered the room, looking back to tell Denzel to come in. They both walked towards another door in the room.

The door opened as soon as they got to it. In it was a staircase, that was leading down.

'A basement... What's down there?' Denzel looked down the stairs before he even started going down.

He began to walk downstairs, following Owl all the time.

As they walked down, Denzel began to hear different sounds, but he couldn't make up what could have made those sounds.

When they got down, what Denzel saw made him more mystified. There were different cages and jails, some containing animals and some containing humans.

'Is this my destination?' Still confused, Denzel looked at each cell, scowling his face at the sight of what he saw at some of the cells.

"Get in" Denzel's little confusion was ended when Owl opened the door of a cell, using his hand to tell Denzel to move inside it.

"What am I doing here? Aren't I meant to be with Leia right now? Or do-" Before Denzel could finish talking, Owl placed his index finger on his lips and made the sound, "Shhh"

Denzel obeyed and walked into the cell. Before he could turn his back, Owl had already slammed the door behind him and locked the cell.

"Owl...? What the fuck? Why am I locked in here? Where is that bitch?" Denzel kept yelling in the cell, as he kept on punching the gates of the cell.

"Hey, get it together and keep it shut!" A very deep voice echoed and Denzel immediately kept shut the moment he saw who it was.

It was a surprisingly huge man, with lots of tattoos on his body. The man seemed like a monster, actually, he was a monster.

The scar on his face allowed Denzel to make out how many battles the man would have been in.

The threatening look the man gave to him made him move back and sit, holding his legs together with his hands.

"Tch!" The man hissed and went back to where he laid down at.

"Damn, that man's size is monstrous," Denzel whispered to himself as the man went back to sleep. "How didn't I even see him earlier?"

At the room filled with computers, Owl walked to a chair and sat on it, pulling out his phone from his pocket as he sat down.

-Leia I have gotten Denzel-

Owl typed, concluding the message with a dancing emoticon, and then sent the message.

Owl could see three dots just below his message, showing that Leia was already typing in reply to his message.

"What? She never replies this fast..." Owl muttered to himself, anticipating praise from Leia for finally capturing Denzel.

~Landline ASAP...~

"Landline? Ohh I almost forgot..."

Owl immediately deleted the message he sent her, placed his phone on the table and then moved towards the Landline that was placed on the table.

After pressing some buttons on the dial pad on the base of the landline, he took the handset by the side and placed it on his ear.

"Hello, it's me, Leia..."

-"Yeah, I know... You finally abducted him huh?"-

"Yes, he is locked up right now,"

"Ohh, Good..."

Owl's face kept on glowing while he kept on listening to Leia's endless praises. He took the base of the Landline phone, sat on the swivel chair that was by his side and kept turning it as he wished.

"So, babe, what should I do with him?"

"Yeah..." Leia began to state out what she wanted Owl to do with Denzel. Owl kept on nodding and replying to her to keep her assured that he was listening to her.

At some point, Owl began to get agitated, because all Leia told him wasn't what he expected from her. The confusion he felt was already starting to show in his voice and Leia also noticed it.

"Is that all?" Owl ask her when he noticed that she wasn't talking anymore.

"Yes that's all, you may end the call."

"Okay-"

"And, I love you," That was what Leia said before he dropped the Handset.

Leia said that because she knew that was the only way he would be hyped to complete his mission.

Owl smiled once more and then walked out of the room.

Owl went back to the basement, opened the door and went to the front of Denzel's cell.

"Get out," Owl said to Denzel, who was lying down on his belly.
