Target Zero

[3] Blame it On Him

Eveline had finally cracked her father's profile, surprisingly it wasn't kept protected. The FBI had lead facts and family about him, but what troubled Eveline that he had married another woman. 

NAME: THOMAS ANDERSON MORTE

AGE: 44

LOCATION: UNKNOWN

FAMILY

Linda Inde Morte - Mother (Decreased)

Tim Anderson Morte - Father (Decreased)

Amanda Lace Morte - Wife 

Damien Lace Morte - Son

Eveline was jealous. Her own mother wasn't even on the list, neither was she. How was she not? Eveline decided to look up more about her father's secret wife and son. She exited out of the files, heading onto search engine. 

 Who is Amanda Lace Morte

Her hands moved with ease as she typed her name out. It sounded familiar. Maybe it was a stupid idea to type a wanted suspect into a world wide search engine, but Eveline was in a hurry. What if Amanda wasn't anyone famous? 

Apparently, she was.

Several pages about Amanda popped up, she appeared on a TV show for unusual habits.  A TV show that ended 2 years ago. Eveline soon found a article about her, and clicked it right away.

Amanda Lace Morte appeared on Unusual Ways episode 58. She liked pulling her hair out, and slowly chew on it. Amanda could've died from eating too much hair, luckily she got help. She did have to get surgery to get the hair out of her stomach, but it was all worth it. Without Unusual Ways help, Amanda would be dead. Eveline's mother wasn't anyone important..

The site still had a ''CONTACT US'' page. Eveline was't going to wait for weeks for a reply, instead she hacked into site. No one would notice.. Eveline had a few other tabs up, such as video sharing sites. Just in case anyone walked by.

She scrolled down episodes, adresses, until she hit 58.

GUEST STAR: AMANDA LACE MORTE

ADDRESS: Maplewood St. 48571.

And that was all that was listed..

Eveline pounded on the door with her fist, waiting. She heard a few steps approaching. Damian peeped through the eye door. Damien didn't recognize Eveline, but proceeded to open the door anyway. Damian was about 3 years younger than Eveline.

   ''No time to talk, where's your mother?'' The first words that popped out of Eveline's mouth. 

   ''Um..upstairs..'' Damien wasn't very bright. He would pour info to everyone without thinking. Eveline shook his hand, giving quick introductions. 

''My name is Eveline, call me Eve or whatever. Go pack, and you'll probably are going to need 2 suitcases. You're in danger, for sakes the FBI could come at any minute. Hurry'' Eveline pushed Damien up the stairs. Eveline looked into the all the rooms, until she hit the master. Amanda was watching cheesy romance shows.

  ''Oh, are you one of Damien's frien-'' Amanda got up from her bed, standing up to greet her.

    ''Nope. You're in danger, pack all the clothes you think you will need. We might be gone for weeks'' Eveline was bossy, but she was doing it all to save her dad..and their's.

     Amanda, frighten of the random girl popping out of no where, had packed all her clothes into three suitcases.  Damien was all ready to go. Since Eveline had no car, they used Amanda's. Her cousin Lily would be driving them to the airport. Lily was deaf, Eveline was so relived that she was..Just for that moment. 

  ''Okay...Not to frighten you, but you're seriously in danger'' Eveline's voice tone dropped after the word ''frighten'' Amanda and Damien started to face the facts, Eveline was just a stranger to them. She barges in, telling them in danger..Amanda and Damien didn't believe her one bit.

    ''Pff, yeah right. Mom, tell Lily to stop somewhere..'' Damien chuckled, laughing at Eveline.

   ''I'm serious. If you love your father, believe me'' Eveline narrowed her eyes at Damien, Damien taken back.

    ''What does this have to do with him..'' Damien pouted.

   ''Everything. It's why you're in danger. He's being hunted down by the FBI'' Eveline warned. Amanda was too scared to peep into the conversation.

   ''Then what are you? A FBI agent? What do you have to do with him..or me and my mom?'' All this pressure landed on Damien. He hasn't spoken to his father for years. Eveline gulped.

    ''I'm your step sister'' Eveline unfolded the secrets. Damien and Amanda shocked. 

   ''Shocking..'' Amanda whispered. Uneasy at the thought that the man she once loved had a child before her.  Lily had screeched on the breaks. Eveline had forgotten that Lily was even driving. They had to be quick, cars behind them waited in line for a spot. Amanda took her bags, rolling them to get the tickets. Damien and Eveline followed.

   ''So..you're my step sister? Cool'' Damien tried sparking a conversation. It was awkward between Eveline and Damien, and it stayed like that until they boarded to France.

   ''So...what was dad like?'' Eveline asked. Amanda was sitting on the right, next to the aisles. Damien squished into the window, and Eveline in the middle. 

    ''I didn't know him that much, but he was frugal. He never wanted us to buy stuff unless he couldn't invent it..'' Damien laughed at one of those moments. 

   ''Oh..I only saw him a few times, my parents divorced right away. I stopped seeing him when I turned 4'' Eveline sighed. Eveline was a bit jealous, Damien had known him for years. Eveline and Damien had chatted about their lives, until one flight attendant caught Eveline's attention.

    ''Hey! What are you doing with my bags..'' Eveline had ripped the seat belts off. The flight attendanthad frown all the bags in one room. Amanda, Damien, and Eveline all got up. Another flightattendant had gotten security to go after them. Amanda was frighten, and Damien also. Eveline was wimpy but she was brave. They all sprinted into the room with the bags, shutting the door as quick as possible. They would be landing in 5 minutes. The security guard tried ripping the door open, but it was too late. Amanda was breathing loudly. The plane had started to descend onto ground. They all tried not falling. Eveline had gripped onto the bags, Damien hanging onto the door. Amanda was hanging onto to Damien's shirt. Finally, the plane had reached it's end. Before thepilot could warn the people to not connect the tunnel to the room with Eveline, it was too late. Damien ripped open the door, their bags behind him. They rolled down the passage, hurrying. Passengers blocked security, taking forever. Eveline wanted to get out of the airport as fast as possible. 

   ''GO GO GO'' Eveline pushed Amanda and Damien. It was dark, and they were starving. Eveline had a hotel room checked in for them. They were huffing, but they kept pushing forward. Finally they reached the exit, strolling out. There was no time to find a car, they decided to hitch a ride on a bus. Three seats were left, and Eveline was lucky. Eveline had placed her wig on her head, wearing a pair of sunglasses. No one would reconigze her. It was a smooth ride to their destenation, all relieved. Eveline quickly checked them into the hotel, up the stairs. It was time for a good night's rest, all too tired to eat or say good night.
