Cats & Dogs (A Robert Downey Jr Fanfic)

chapter 28

Jack's POV

"Cold! Cold! Its cold!" I woke up with a jerk as someone splashed cold water while I was in deep sleep, who could be so demonic to do such hideous thing.

I rubbed my face and eyes to recognize the foggy frame standing in front of me... I was in a daze...

"Want another bath, you moron?" The foggy shadow came closer and slapped me. I know this voice... Bess?

I looked up to see two Bess-es standing in front of me in angry manner, I flickered my eyes and shook my head and looked again, one Bess disappeared. She had an empty pitcher in her hand...

"Where's Ditto?" She shouted making me shudder.

"What... I... I don't.. I don't know!" I was confused sleepy, Cold , wet, but then I sat up and shook my head once more to gain some consciousness...

"Listen I know about last night. Ditto called me she told me everything, Jack! C'mon you cannot be that stupid, She has been living her entire life with the guilt of killing her own sister, when that wasn't even her fault at all. She didn't kill her sister or your girlfriend. IT.WAS.JUST. AN ACCIDENT, Jack." She was right.

Dammit! She was right. I held my forehead. I was mentally cursing myself.

"Now, where is she? tell me." She again asked with a partial anger hinting in her voice...

"What do you mean by that?" I was confused...

"She called me... But then I don't know suddenly the line went blank. Tyler drove me here as soon as possible but she was no where to be found, I looked everywhere..." She said while combing her fingers through her blonde silky hair with frustration...

I was now full awake, I tucked my long brown lock behind my ear. I was worried, where is she?

"Should we call police?" Bess suggested...

"No, we should wait... You tried her number?" I asked while getting up from the floor...

"yeah! But no luck, its switched off...!" Suddenly her phone rang, She quickly looked at it... "Ditto!" she exclaimed looking at the screen that was flashing Ditto's name..

"Pick it pick it!" I rushed...

"Jack n Jill... went up to hill... To fetch a pail of water..." A masculine voice sang from the other side making Bess confused.

She instantly turned phone on loud speaker.

"Looking for something?"

"Magnus?" I recognized his voice and the masculine voice laughed...

"Getting smart, ain't we?" He teased from the other side but both Bess' and my eyes swelled up to hear a scream from back ground...

"Ditto!!!" We both shouted in unison. Magnus laughed again...

"Leave me! Its hurting!" Ditto again cried out...

"Ssshh!! I hate violence Ditto... Ssshh!" I heard Magnus threatening and then heard a scream of her that made me jump...

"You do not touch her, Magnus! I swear I'll cut you in half!" I shouted on top of my lungs earning another laugh from him...

"We'll see that, tough guy! Why don't you meet me at the place, where you snatched away my Madison from me... Huh?" With that he disconnected...

"Magnus!" all I could do was yelling...

"What was he talking about?" Bess was confused...

"I don't know!" I yelled in frustration and kicked the leg of bed but I was the one jumping with a hurt toe...
