CHAPTER 7 MAN ON THE MOON

Violet P.O.V

I was exhausted; we'd been in this van for hours, and all I wanted was something to eat, a shower, and a nap. I could see five was very on edge and he was in a rush to put this 'plan' of his into action. He still hasn't told me his plan, but I'm just kind of going with it at this point. I don't have the energy to argue with him. I don't have the energy to do anything. I think the lack of blood is getting to me now. 

After a little while longer and a quick coffee run, I saw five sit up in his chair.

"There he is you ready scatter brain"

I gave him a quick nod. We watched as the doctor put his dog in the car, and before he could get in, Five and I blipped into the car. Five was in the front, and I sat in the back with the doctor's dog. Ah, I see what he was planning. I just hope it works in his favour because he doesn't have the best track record with this man. I put the dog on my lap and played with his ears as Five did what he needed to do. 

"Oh Jesus"

Five shot forward, holding a knife to the very scared doctor's neck. He was determined to get answers, and nothing would stop him. 

"One chance, that's all you've got. one change to tell us exactly what's going on in that lab."

The doctor cast a quick glance over to me, hoping that I would assist him, but all I did was sit there and watch everything unfold in front of me.

"Miss, will you tell your boyfriend to calm down?"

"One, he is not my boyfriend, and two, nothing I would say would stop him now. Especially not me, so I suggest you tell him what he needs to know before he loses his patience and kills you, and trust me, he will. "

Before returning to the doctor, Five gave me a sidelong glance. He pushed the knife a little more, and the doctor started to tell us the truth.

"I... I manufacture prosthetic devices for fake patients I bill the insurance companies and then sell them for cash on the black market. "

"Including eyeballs?"

"Yeah, they're my biggest seller. They sell like hot cakes. I've got a list a waiting list of probably 20 buyers. "

"So the serial number I told you ..."

"uh could've already been brought. yes off-- off the books "

"I needed that list, lance. names and numbers, and I needed it now."

The doctor was really starting to fear for his life. I could see it on his face, and it was rather amusing to see a grown man afraid of two 16-year-olds. I mean, I know we aren't actually 16, but he doesn't know that.

"I don't have it on me; the only copy's in my safe at the lab."

"Well, you start the car then, because we are going on a field trip."

Five set back as the doctor started driving, he gave me a look in the mirror before we headed on our way. Finally, we were finally going to get some answers. I hope anyway.

A few minuets later

We made it to the building, but it was ... on fire. Oh shit. Five jumped out of the car and started running to the building. I followed just after him. Just as we came to a stop, the building went up in a giant explosion, sending both me and five backwards. We looked up to see the damage. Shit, we were so close. I looked over at five, and he truly looked mortified. I stood up and gave him my hand to help him up, but he pushed it away, stood up himself and walked off. I rolled my eyes but followed after him.
