Imprison

Chapter 3

Sebastian followed Ellie and the man silently as they made their way outside and into the car park. He hated the way that Ellie would smile and talk with him so familiarly. It made Sebastian doubt as to who Ellie was actually working for. Right she seemed too comfortable with TESS. Especially the man who seemed to be getting on too well with Ellie.

Sebastian stopped when they stopped at a motorbike. Sebastian almost growled as the man took out the keys for his bike. He could clearly see the delight in Ellie's eyes as she saw that they would be riding a bike. He saw Ellie say something to the man who then laughed heartily at whatever she said. Sebastian strained his hearing but even as a vampire he couldn't hear what they were saying.

Ellie eagerly climbed onto the back of the mans blue GSX-R1000 and they drove off. Sebastian didn't find it too difficult to keep up with them with his vampire speed but it was difficult to keep out of sight.

Eventually they came to a halt outside her uncles house. Sebastian frowned at the thought of Ellie leading someone from TESS right to her uncles door steps especially since he was already in danger.

Sebastian sighed and leant against the trunk of the tree his was hiding up while Ellie was inside. When they both came out again Sebastian followed them back to the TESS building. Ellie was driving her uncles car back to TESS while the man followed on his bike behind. He sat in the tree outside Ellie's window and watched as they went back and forth with boxes.

When they both left to bring up some of the last boxes Sebastian's phone began vibrating. He took it out of his pocket and almost dropped it when he saw who was calling him.

"What do you want?"

-It's Sam. He's gone. They took him.- The. voice on the other line broke down into sobs. Sebastian sighed impatiently having not understood a word that the voice had said.

"Could you calm down a speak slowly. I don't have much time to speak to you." Sebastian spoke in a hushed voice because Ellie and the man returned with some more boxes. There was only one left in the car downstairs in the car park.

-Seb. They took Sam. He's been missing for two weeks. They found him.-

"What?!" Sebastian looked back through Ellie's window to see her taking books out of a box. The man was downstairs getting the last box. "I'm coming over. Just try and calm down. I think I know what I can do."

Sebastian hung up and slipped his phone back into his pocket. He took out a bit of paper from his pack and scrawled something onto it. He slipped it into the window and knocked quietly on the glass before disappearing into the night.

*********************************

Ellie lead Damon up to the front steps of her uncles house and opened the door with her key. She didn't feel too worried taking Damon home with her since she knew her uncle was out for the night. When she unlocked the door she had a strange feeling that someone was watching her. She turned and looked around the empty street.

"What's wrong?"

Ellie shook her head and walked inside. "Nothing."

Ellie and Damon were able to pack her room up in three hours. Damon helped carry her boxes outside to her uncles spare car. She drove back to the TESS building which was starting to empty as six o'clock neared. Damon helped her carry her boxes back to her new room.

"So do you know what this emergency meeting's about?"

Damon shrugged as well as someone could while carrying two heavy boxes. "Keith didn't tell me much except that something happened to his partner while they were investigating."
