Max X Chloe (pricefiled) ep.6

Ch.5 A broken family

About 10 minutes passed and Chloe and Max headed to the mess hall to eat. "Man I'm staving " Max said as she griped her stomach. Chloe on the other hand just walked along without saying a word. " Chloe I know this must be difficult for you, bringing Amber back after this crazy week, but I just want to let you know that I'm here for you." Max said as she puts her hand on Chloe's bare shoulder.
Chloe looks over at Max and smiles . She floods the paper and puts it in her back pocket.
"Thanks Max, I...I'm glad I got you on my side."
On their way the man they encountered earlier was waiting for them at the entrance. " glad to see you ladies again, you must be hungry after all you went through?"
They headed to the line that resembled a normal cafeteria. They grabbed the food from the line and head to the table were they started to eat.
" so first things first, how do you know Rachel ambers??" The military officer asked.
Max stop eating .she wasn't in the mood ,but this was the time to get some real answers.
" she was an old friend....well more of Chloe's then mine, look earlier you said something about Rachel and her family, can you tell us more about it, like when she went missing or her brother?".
"Well first things first, call me Jeff , I'm not the biggest fan of being called sir. Secondly I was her parole officer. You see about five years ago Rachel's mother died from brain cancer, and this hit her hard. She started to get in to a lot of trouble, fights brake ins,and even.....well let's just say she was a hand full, but her brother , i think Michael was his name? He always got her out of trouble, sometimes taken the heat or claimed it was all his idea. Those a two were inseparable, until the incident."

Chloe's eyes widen and she heard about this incident." That happens?what incident and where?!?"
With chloe nearly jumping from her chair,Max pulled her down."sorry Jeff, I'm just ..."
"No no no, it's fine. I understand how you feel. Rachel was someone important to you. Now back to the story. After Rachel's mothers death,her father remarried and this women was....well she was something. I don't know what hell she raised but it was enough to her her killed."

"KILLED!!!"
The words dropped out of Max's mouth. Did Rachel kill her stepmother or was it something else.
" that's right. One night I get a call around 12:37 and it Rachel on the phone. And I can't make out not one word that's coming out of her mouth. I get my team together and we come in to her front door. The only one to answer was her brother with a bit of blood on his lower lip. We all come in and head to the kitchen where...........where only God could scare the living daylight out of me."
Jeff looks down at his tray of food and eyes are so wide he begins to tear up.
" wh...when we walked in to the kitchen all we saw was a skeleton with with its bones almost singed. We had it taken back to the lab and the bones and ashes seemed almost incinerated,but the was no cause of fire or ....well anything. About a few years latter,Rachel disappeared of the face of the earth. We spent months looking but we came up empty. And her brother, well dame he couldn't be the slightest bin interested. Not even in the least.

Max POV:
I don't get it.....so Rachel had a brother and her mother died of cancer and he wasn't even concerned even a little?!?!? And this doesn't even begin to scratch the surface!!!!
Chloe's POV:
Omg!!!! What the hell Rachel!!! I thought I knew you, I thought you trusted me....I thought......I thought you were my friend.
" so mr.jeff um, so you know where we can find Rachel's brother um... Michael? Was it?" Asked Max
" shore thang, he moved out of his old mans plaice about a few months ago after the search was called off."
Jeff took out a pen and a peace of paper and scribbled some number and an address and handed it to Max.
"Thanks sir....Jeff "
     "Not a problem "
With that Jeff got up and Wales away.
Chloe turned to Max."so what now? We got an address so that's a start.
Ya but then what? We're just going to drop by and say"hi were you dead sisters friends"!!
Ya I don think that's going to fly.
Look I know this isn't easy for you Chloe but....it's a start so pleas just give it a shot?!?"
Chloe looks over at Max and grins."fine, first lets at leas get settled."
Max Jumps in to Chloe for a hug.
"....um Chloe are you ok??"
"What....ya I'm fine why"
"Well yours hearts racing like hella crazy?"
Chloe blushes and tries to hide it when she hears her mom call over across the mess hall.
" hey girls, come on and give the old lady some love!!"
Max and Chloe look over at each other.
The nurse that's pushing her in her wheelchair looks I've and said " they gave her some pain killers about an hours ago but she'll be ok soon."
