Chapter 18 - That Wasn't A Tunic!

The building was a tower and some of it's rooms were slightly litted up, this was the operational building of the police, it's pure white paintings represented justice.

The atmosphere around the building was serene and you could only see guards walking around in patrol.

Dan and the patrol officer walked towards Liam in gentle footsteps.

Lieutenant Dan frowned slightly when he saw Liam, he knew Liam and recognized him easily because Liam had some striking features. His hair was always very curly and he had an almost beautiful face that was always looking tired. Only this time his face looked troubled.

"It's you? I don't remember telling you my name or mentioning it in your school." Dan's frown deepened as he recalled not telling his name to Liam.

"Ummm.. I think you did, anyway that's not the reason I am here, I am here for Max." Liam said hurriedly, he didn't have time to explain anything to Dan, Max could loose it any moment from now.

Dan raised his eye brows with a frown, "Don't you know he is under custody?" Dan asked with a bit of annoyance in his voice.

"Yeah, I do but....." Liam said but he was interupted.

"Leave, I don't care about what you want to tell him." Dan said raising his voice.

Liam was worried shit, what the hell does this guy mean by leave?

"You don't understand Lieutenant, Max forgot his drugs at home, don't you remember the severe cold he complained about before heading out with you guys? It's nighttime now, when cold is at its peak, without his medicine how do you expect him to hold on." Liam said his quick wits kicking in again.

"What type of cold is that? I dont know what you and your friend are playing at but know that it won't work here, I still want you to leave." Dan said shaking his head, he felt that Max might be strange even if he wasn't an exaggerated blood sucking monster.

Liam calmed down after hearing those words, he felt like he reacted a bit to out of normal and gave Dan some doubts.

He didn't know yet why they came for Max, but what if they knew what he was already?

Because thinking about this, there has been no prior arresting of Max since they have been together, so why now?

"Well I am with his drugs and I will be heading back, but know this, anything that happens to Max, you'll be the one to be blamed." Liam said calmly as he turned around to walk out.

Meanwhile inside the building, Max breathing was becaming more and more rapid and all he could think of was blood.

He could hear clearly the heartbeats of the patrol officers and he was also sweating profusely.

Seeing that he was reaching his limit, Max suddenly stood up and banged his head on the wall, he had one motive in mind and that was to knock himself out, he knew that he wouldn't know what he'd be doing when he woke up but he had to for now.

Thud!

After several tries he finally fell limply on the floor after a hard knock on the wall.

Outside the tower Dan looked at Liam's fading silhouette with a worried expression, although the cold they talked about seemed untrue and was for another motive, but just what if what they said was true?

Just then a guard came rushing towards Dan.

"Why the rush? Is there any problem?" Dan asked.

"Yeah, there is a problem, a detained fainted."

"Who?"

"I don't know, a young man."

Dan's eyes looked back at Liam's fading figure.

Liam who was going away slowed down, his super hearing ability came unpredictably, anytime it came and he tried to listen in again, it wouldn't work.

But suddenly it starts up again without warning. Just now he heard what the guard said despite the distance he was from them.

"Wait!!!!" Dan's voice sounded like a speaker in his ears, this time around he felt like his ears were about to explode.

That shout was expected to sound faintly in his ears but it sounded like he was directly in Dan's sound box.

Fuck!

Liam almost cried, that sound occupied his whole mind.

Liam immediately turned around as his face twitched.

But he wasn't in the mood to bother about this super hearing of his, he had to get Max out of there first.

"You chamged your mind?" Liam asked as he got to where Dan was.

"Your friend fainted." Dan replied.

"What?" Liam immediately searched his pocket and brought out a small bottle.

"Lead the way or I should still leave?" Liam said in a hurry.

Dan rolled his eyes at Liam.

Inside, seeing Max on the floor unconscious but breathing rapidly, Liam immediately opened the small bottle and poured it inside his mouth.

He them breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile outside the building a silhouette came out from a more dark area, as everywhere was dark already.

If Liam was here he'd know who this was.

It was Jack.

Jack actually didn't plan on following Liam, but he felt like Max and Liam were behaving too strange, and with Liam suddenly going out of the dorm he decided to follow him.

And it led him here, this building, a police station!

Well if that was all then he'd head back or even wouldn't follow Liam in the first place.

After all, they were all bothered about Max, and maybe Liam decided to visit to know exactly why they got Max arrested.

But that was where things were complicated.

When he followed Liam at first he saw Liam take out a bottle secretly and cut his hands.

Then he dripped enough blood inside and then headed towards this place.

Jack had a thought in his mind but he tried to screw it.

But the harder he tried, the more he thought about it.

The thought was,

The red liquid Liam gave Max earlier today wasn't a tunic, was it?
