CHAPTER FIVE
Trouble finding your pathetic son? Good luck finding him... Why not go back to where you started?
Brandon read the letter over and over, what does it mean? He guessed 'pathetic son' translated to 'Lucas', but, what had the rest meant? Someone had taken him? Oh gosh... Go back to where he started? Where did he even start? The hospital? His parent's honeymoon? Where had he started?
Brandon walked in his room, having a death grip on the sleeve of paper. He sat down, grabbed a notepad from beside the stack of mail and started to write down all the possible starting points.
After wasting twenty valuable minutes of his day, Brandon looked down to see the notepad a dangerous white. What was he going to do? He couldn't get the thought of where he could begin would be. Brandon picked up his phone after he had noticed that it was ringing.
"Hello?" His groggy voice spoke through the flat gadget.
"You found me yet?" Brandon could hear the smirk.
"Listen here and listen good, you either tell me where the hell your coward ass is or I'll be hunting you down and blasting you full of lead!"
The man on the receiver laughed deeply, making goose bumps make an appearance on the surface of his arms and the hair on the back of his neck stand to attention. Brandon cleared his throat, regaining his confidence, he asked, "Well, can I just have a clue to get some sort of bloody idea about where the hell I began?!"
The man laughed yet again reciting a few words in a mocking tone, words he knew all too well, "You didn't have to take her life, she was innocent in all of this, she didn't deserve it."
The statement made steam pour out of Brandon's ears. Was he saying that he had kidnapped Lucas?! Brandon shot up, ending the line between him and the man and started a sprint towards the door.
He snatched his car keys off the small table and ran out towards his car. Lucky Lucas and I don't have to share a car... Brandon thought. He slammed the door shut after sitting down on the seat and sped out into the empty roads. He looked onto the dash and saw the time.
Yellow, neon digits came into sight reading 1:42. Seeing the sky was a deep blue, nearly a black, and sprinkled with small white specks, he guessed the obvious; it was the early hours of the morning.
The wheels made a ridiculously loud screech as he slammed the breaks down. Brandon all but stumbled out of car and ran towards the rusted door. He wrenched it open, making a horrible noise and ran down the infinite stairs, two at a time.
Brandon burst through the door at the bottom of the stairs, entering a room filled with stale, damp air. He looked around to see nothing but pitch black and all he heard was the dripping of water. His footsteps echoed off the mould-covered walls and his breaths came out staggered from the sudden exertion of running.
He walked further into the dark room, only to be greeted by the door creaking shut behind him. Brandon instantly turned at the sound and on instinct ran towards the door. Loud thuds spread throughout the room as his fists bang against the rough, rusted metal.
After hours of banging on the door, Brandon decided to walk towards what he assumed was the centre of the room and sat down. As soon as he had done this, a breath-taking woman entered the room wearing a deep blue dress, a set of yellow heels and a yellow scarf.
She had long, black hair and beautiful blue eyes that matched her dress. Brandon sat love-struck and in a daze at the sight before him. The lady looked confused as to why he would be sitting down there, in a cold, dark basement type part of the warehouse.
Both beings struggled to find words. Brandon too taken aback from her beauty and the woman too taken aback by as to why he had been sitting down here and wasting his time.
The lady built up the courage to say a few words, "Uh, why are you down here, all by yourself, in a cold and dark room?"
