They pulled up to the warehouse that Mason said he was in. Matt got out with Joy right behind him. A few squad cars turned up silently. They made a circle around the building and Matt called everyone over. He delegated jobs and sent five officers around the back to search for any and all exits.
“Do you know where Ava is?” Matt turned to look at when she spoke. He shook his head and turned to Holly.
“Any idea where Ava is?”
“You could try calling Buck Robarts. He’s the chief of police around here and she always has a knack for knowing the local cops.” Holly said as she continued to check the weapons she brought with her. Matt nodded and grabbed his phone. He call the local station and got Chief Roberts number. He then tried Buck’s phone.
“Chief Robarts.” He answered and Matt moved slightly away from the group that had surrounded Mason’s unconscious form.
“Chief Robarts. This is Agent Matt Papadoorous. I was wondering if you’ve had any contact with a woman named Ava Taylor.” Matt asked getting to the point.
“Yeah. You wanna talk to her?”
“She’s there?”
“Yeah. Hang on a minute.” Matt heard the sound of Chief Robarts voice carrying across an open space before he heard the sound of him handing over the phone.
“What do you want Papa. I’m in a very important meeting.” Matt heard Ava say in a bored tone. Somehow he just knew she wasn’t in a meeting.
“Ava. We found him. He’s okay but badly beaten.” Matt said quickly.
“Does that mean I can kill this bitch?” Matt froze at her words.
“You got her?”
“Willingly walking into a trap does have its perks.” Ava said but Matt didn’t hear any humour or sarcasm in her voice to think she was joking.
“What? Where are you?” Matt asked starting to get a little concerned.
“Don’t worry Matt I had back up and I’m fine. Now back to my question…” there was a pause before Matt heard the sound of something hitting flesh.
“Can I kill the bitch now?” Ava said slowly, almost like she was talking to a child and Matt became more worried at her attitude the longer he spoke to her.
“Ava…” Matt trailed off not quite sure what he was going to say
“Two seconds Matt or I’m going to do it no matter what you say.” Ava said her voice demanding he make a choice
“Give us five minutes to get to Mas, and then you can talk to him about it.” He said. Trying to come up with something to hold off her blood lust for just a few minutes.
“You want me to sit on her for five minutes? I might catch something?” Ava said and he almost laughed at the disgusted tone of her voice.
“Get off her and chain her up then. Just at least wait for Mason’s input. Alright?” Ava rolled her eyes again.
“We’re just about to go in now. A minute Ava. That’s all.” Matt said softly hoping she would do as he asked. They began moving towards the building when something crackled over the radios.
“Officer down. Officer down. Shots fired. Shots fired.” At that second the hair on the back of his neck stood up and he knew something wasn’t right.
“AVA-” he started to say before the connection broke.
“Shit.” He muttered as he ran over to Joy and Holly.
