Leaving Pain (TLB SEQUEL )

Leaving pain : Part 17

Omg! sorry guys for the long wait . because we got exams ;-; . So here  it is :3 ( i will write another chapter okie? :) )

Yusei, Crow, Kaylin, Jack, Akiza, Amanda, Luna, and Carly walked into the police station still in complete silence as they were in deep thought. It didn't make much difference though since the police was also very silent.

The police was a building that appeared to be small on the outside with one story and was one of the plainest looking building on its block with its brown-grayish color. Upon entering said building, the group noticed that the building was a lot bigger on the inside than the outside. There seemed to be many corridors with some rooms along the side. Some of the group gaped slightly at the magnitude of the building before remembering their reason for being where they were. Then their faces turned back to their gloomy expressions.

As they walked the front desk, a familiar face looked up from whatever he was writing and smirked at them. "So what brings you here?"

Yusei was the first to say anything. "T-trudge? What are you doing here?"

Trudge frowned deeply before saying "Paperwork."

The group waited for him to say more. After waiting a few more moments and seeing that the officer was not going to explain any further, Yusei spoke. "We would like to file a missing person's report."

Trudge raised an eyebrow. "For who?"

"For Leo," Yusei answered immediately. "One of the twins."

"When was the last time you saw him?" Trudge asked after pulling out a sheet of paper from a drawer out of the desk.

"About two or three hours ago," Jack answered.

Trudge raised his eyebrow again with an obvious question on his face, but he didn't bring it up. "What gave you the impression that he went missing?"

"We actually think he…ran away," Yusei said hesitantly causing Trudge to look up from the paper he was writing the information on.

"What makes you think that?" Trudge asked.

Yusei sighed, briefly glancing at the gang and back at Trudge. "It's a long story."

At this, Trudge stood. "We've got time. Follow me."

….Meanwhile at Ashley's house….

The family and Leo had long since finished their dinner and were in front of the huge television screen watching 'Finding Nemo' the movie. The movie was nearly done and Leo was still trying to decide how he was going to tell Ashley's parents the news. Was he supposed to just come out with it? That seemed like the best way to tell it.

Leo could literally feel his heart starting to pound outrageously as the movie came to a close. Then he took in a deep breath and calmed slightly. Leo looked at Ashley who nodded at him. They had to do this and they had to do it now.

So when the family started to go up the stairs, Leo and Ashley stood side-by-side without moving. Ashley's parents and Mandy stared back at the two with confused looks. Ashley's dad asked "Are you two coming or what?"

Leo swallowed and looked him in the eye. "We can't."

Ashley's mom raised an eyebrow. "And why not?"

"There is something we have to tell you," Ashley answered her mother.

"What's that?" Mandy asked her curiosity spiked.

Leo looked nervously at the ground. "You might want to sit down."

Ashley's dad's eyebrows furrowed as he and the rest of the family came down the stairs. They sat on the couch while Leo and Ashley stood before them. Ashley's dad spoke. "What do you need to tell us?"
