United

Chapter 2 Reunited

3:00am

Quietly and fast, Carly stepped out of her car and walked toward the house the crime took place in. She had parked a few blocks away so she won't be noticed, she still had a long way to go yet. As Carly walked she got lost in thought like she always does and looked up toward the sky. She already knew San Diego was a beautiful city but in the dead of night when most of the lights were out, the stars shone brightly and beautifully in the sky.

First her thoughts went to crime scene and what she planned on doing tonight but then her thoughts went deeper, to her family, her sister. Carly ripped herself from her thoughts the minute her mind went there. That was not something to think about, at least not to night when she had a mission.

A couple of minutes later Carly arrived at the house. The wind blew coldly as she walked up the front steps to the house. She tried the door and like usual, it was locked. She leaned down to the lock and picked it with a hair clip. With a satisfyingly click the door opened and Carly walked on in.

The first thing she noticed was the mess and the blood. Knowing it would be there Carly wouldn't have paid attention to it but something was off. The window was wide open and she heard voices, no, yelling in the other room.

She slowly took the shot gun out of the rim of her jacket and walked toward the door that contained the yelling. They must not have heard her come in. Why were there people hear? Carly thought, what ever the reason it couldn't be good. It didn't sound like a supernatural creature was in the room so she decided to put her ear to the door to listen, to see who she was up against.

The voices sounded oddly familiar which wasn't a good sign. Carly may have met good people while on the road but she also met and gained a lot of enemies. Getting tried of trying to pick out what they were saying Carly final busted into the room after she heard things breaking. Two people stood ahead of her, one female with brown hair with dyed red in it and a male with reddish hair. Both were dressed in black but they both had blood and cuts on their faces from the fight they just had, the one Carly had heard.

Both of their heads whipped around and looked at her with shock. Carly knew why, she also knew why the voices had sounded so familiar to her. She had heard the voices years before in a classroom in a small school. The two kids were always fighting over something.

Carly was frozen in spot, how was this possible? They were in Canada and she hadn't seen them or heard of them in over 10 years. How had she let her past sneak up on her. They looked so different but Carly knew who they were. After a few moments of all of them frozen still, Carly finally spoke.

"Hayley and Brandon." she got out "What the hell are you doing here?"

They both snapped out of it and Hayley was the first to speak.

"I could ask you the same question, Carly, but first i want to know." "What the hell happened to you after your sister-"

Carly cut her off, she was not going to talk about this.

"That's enough, i'm not going to talk about this with you" Carly rose her voice a little

"You shouldn't be here, it's dangerous"

Brandon answered this time

"Wow, i never knew." " Now this was nice and all but i got a job to do and that's to kill a member of TBS!"

"The what?"

But before either of them could answer her, more footsteps filled the room. Carly swung around ready to shot but it was yet again another familiar face. This night kept on getting worse and worse by the minute.

"Jake?!" All three of them said together.

Jake stood there shocked for a minute probably not expecting anyone to be here 3:00 in the morning let alone people for his childhood. Before Jake could speak Hayley spoke again.

"Would someone please tell me what is going on here!"

"One of my gang members were killed and now all my old friends show up!"

"Gang member?!" Carly yelled in shock "You're in a gang?!" She took a breath "And why must i add does Brandon what to kill you!"

Jake became pale "Wait so Hayley is in a gang and Brandon wants to kill her?" He paused "Can't say i never saw this one coming, especially tonight."

" I want to kill her because she is in my enemy gang, i have orders!" Brandon yelled becoming very angry "And you motherfuckers are messing it up!"

Brandon is in a gang to great. Carly could wrap her head around it, Hayley was here because one of her gang members was killed. Brandon was here because he needed to kill Hayley because she was his enemy. Did she really want know why Jake was here.

"Why are you here Jake?!" Hayley asked

"Because i needed to find info on your stupid gang so i could find your hide out and kill you all, including The Viper, which i guess is your gang!" Jake shouted and then pointed at Brandon.

Great. Jake wanted to kill Hayley AND Brandon. Was she the only one not wanting to kill her a person here.

"So last but not least why are you here Carly?" Brandon asked really loudly.

Now she had to tell them what she did for a living, this should be good.

"I'm...I'm here to find out what kill the man"

"what do you mean What killed the man, don't you mean who?!" Hayley asked impatiently.

Shit

" I mean a ghost okay!" Carly finally spit out "YOU HAPPY!"

All Jake busted into laughter as Hayley and Brandon just looked plain confused.

"What are you?" Jake got out "GhostBusters!"

" A hunter actually" Carly responded

Jake stopped laughing and looked confused like the rest. But before anyone could ask Brandon yelled.

"ENOUGH OF THIS BULLSHIT" His face turned red "I'M HEAR TO KILL SO THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO DO!"

Brandon raised his gun at Hayley. Hayley raised her gun at Brandon, and Jake, well he was about to raise his gun but we all soon heard sirens in the distance. She one called the cops probably because of all the noise.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and took off out though the nearest exist.

A few minutes later Carly came to a stop at her car and so did the others because they had all parked close together.

"Tomorrow, met at the old motel outside of town" Carly said "We are figuring out this shit as soon as possible"

All three to out of breath to talk all nodded their heads and got in their cars/motorcycle and drove home. At least she hoped they did.

After they departed Carly unlocked her car and sat down in it. She put her hands over her eyes and thought to herself. How the hell was she going to control a room full of people all trying to kill each other. She took her hands away from her eyes, started the car, and drove back to the motel.
