Killian's POV
A few days later

It's been a few days since the incident and although we have been trying to recover from it. Bad things just keep happening.

Emma is receiving endless threatening texts from a private number, which is more than likely Helen and Jack. David isn't having any hope at the station, and Sophie has been uncomfortable and has came down with a little cough.

It's getting closer and closer to August which means Henry and Liam are coming home soon and so is our first wedding anniversary.  Trying to live our lives during all this chaos was hard, it wasn't smooth, but we were really trying.

Today we decided to go visit the Sheriff Station and see David and Mary Margaret. My aunt Liz was going to look after Sophie so we could spend as much time as we needed over there.

We left the house at 11am and drove as fast as we could to the sheriffs station to get started on helping with the investigation.

It's now 2pm and we have had no luck with anything. Emma was getting frustrated and I was getting annoyed. David and Mary Margaret left the room to get coffee and give us some space. We sat on a couch and hugged eachother as Emma snuggled her head into my shoulder and began to lightly cry. I ran my fingers through her hair so calm her down but to be honest I knew it wasn't going to work. The only thing that would comfort her would be seeing Jack and Helen behind bars again.

When David and Mary Margaret came back in we went back to work on trying to get the cctv footage from the camera around the area of our house and follow them until we loose track of them. It was going to take some time to get into the system so me and Emma just sat back and tried to relax until David got in.

"Done."

"Done?"

"Yeah, I've just got access to all the footage taken in the past week."

"Go to Friday nights."

David scrolled until he found Friday's date and clicked into the link. It showed millions of videos and he continued to search until he found the camera closest to our home. He fast forwarded it to around the time of the attack and we just sat back and watched.

At around 1:39am we caught their first sighting. David continued to click on the cameras so we wouldn't loose them. After about 30 minutes of watching we saw them looking around before walking to a house together. David stood up and grabbed his jacket and jotted down the address of the house.

"Where are you going?"

"To catch these two."

"David, please don't go. Send your other men. I want you to come home to our kids. Not end up in hospital."

"Mary Margaret I would love to send my other men. But they aren't as motivated as I am to catch these two. They have attacked my friends and their child. Action has to be taken."

"David please."

"I'll be okay I promise. Now go home all of you. If I find anything you will be the first to know."

We all nodded and Mary Margaret hugged and kissed him before he left the station.

"What if he doesn't come home?"
