Fighting Off The Demons

Chapter 11

Lara's pov

I was back at the library again just to find out about what happened to George when he was still young.

I had almost finish searching the newspapers now. I knew I was getting nearer and nearer to my answer.

I had reached the section for month November now. I was tired and exhausted but I just kept flipping the pages lazily until I flipped past a page.

I think I see something similar.

I flipped back quickly and impatiently. I saw him.
"This is the boy I saw in my dreams"

I switched my eyes to the story beside it and it read

TRAGEDY STUCK IN THE HOME OF THE WASHINTONS.

George........Washinton? Yea thats his surname....he's the boy in my dreams?

I laughed quietly "Now I'm seeing visions about him.......I'm f**king seeing visions about him"

But again a vision passed through my eyes.
"Angel will you marry me when we are older" Little George asked .

"Wait till we grow up..... I will give you my answer then" The girl replied.

I regained my composure.
Seriously? Now who was George and this unknown girl to torment me like this.

I remembered what they said to each other.
Angel will you marry..........hugh He loves that so called angel.

But now thinking about the vision it was more like I remembered.
I curiously glanced back at the newspaper to read the story.

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

I had finished reading it now. Tears formed in my eyes.

George you went through that?

Immediately I stood from where I was seating and walked briskly out of the central Library.

I must see him......I must see him now.

I went straight to the parking lot and as I entered my car, my cellphone rung.

"Hello......who's this?" Asking since it was a no named number.

"It's George................" His deep voice erupted from the speaker of my cellphone. I was carried away by what I had read about him so I couldn't hear what he said.

"Lara.....are you there"

"Yea....What did you say" I asked hoping I didn't sound weird.

"We caught Mr Fleetwood's muderer........You are to interrogate him because every body says you are good at that"  He said slowly dragging every word.

"Okay...I'm my way" I started the car and I drove out of the parking lot.

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

"I called your phone but it wasn't going" George said when I entered his office

"I was busy" I shrugged.

"You were busy.....huh....you were busy" He was angry.

Calm down Lara, calm down.

"Even.....I did the most work....I did" I said slowly smiling not wanting to argue with him.

He scoffs "You did the most work huh.....Are you joking with me now" His voice had increased slightly now.

"You know what.....He's in the interrogation room right....I'll go" I turned and I walked out of his office angrily  but tears were in building in my eyes.

I went straight to the bathroom.

"He's very good at being a jerk......a cold, emotionless jerk" I said as I washed my face.

"Why was he even angry because I didn't answer a mere phone call"

Its because he doesn't like me at all.

"But he promised that he won't be like that again"

Suddenly I remembered.
"Ahhhh.....Interrogation" Immediately I cleaned my face with my handkerchief and I dashed out of the bathroom.

In a minute I had packed the note pad  used for interrogations and I was in the Interrogation room.

He was already sitting there. A cup of coffee was on the table in front of him. He had a smile on his lips.

"Ahhhh the beautiful Detective is here to interrogate me" He said with a smirk.

I sat on the chair facing him, I dropped all the things I was holding table.

"Now tell the beautiful Detective why you killed your brother" I replied with a stern face.

"Woah woah no need for the bold face....I'm gonna tell you right now and clear" He said still smiling.

I used my hand to remove my hair blocking my face pressing the button of the recording device in my hair.

"I'm listening.... Go on"

"Since you just pressed the recording device......I'm starting"

I was shocked but I covered it up with a smile.

My silence gave him a cue to continue
"Now a safe is in my brother's house and it's containing millions..millions of dollars"

Aahh so you killed your brother because of money.

"Many gangs are already targeting that house...that safe but...." He stopped

I lifted my head from what I was writing into the interrogation pad
"But what"

"Nobody knows the location of the safe.....I went to him that night to tell him that many gangs were targeting that safe so that I could get him to tell me the location but he didn't......so I decided that if I don't know the location then no one will know it"

"So you killed your own blood brother because of some money you don't even know if it exists" I said looking at him irritatingly.

"I'm not the one in command....I have my own gang and my boss would've sent another person for the job.....I even granted him a painless death....it could've been much worse....they were planning to torture him to death if he didn't tell the location of the safe"

I shake my head in disgust.
"Well you are going to iron heights to spend the rest of your life there"

"I doubt that lady" He replied still smiling

I realized he was smiling the whole time. He must be thinking that killing a person is a joke.

"You think this is a joke......" I banged my hand hard on the table.

"Nope....." He brought his face close to mine

"They will be coming" He continued then he sat on seat and threw his head laughing out loud.

"Who....." I asked guessing the answer but wanting to hear it directly.

He lifted the sleeves of his shirt. At his right lower arm I saw a mark or a tattoo. It looked like a scorpion.

Suddenly I heard the door open with much force. George went directly to Chris and he gave him a hard punch that sent him to the floor.

He then sat on Chris and started raiding him with punches after punches.
"I'm gonna kill you....you son of a b*tch" George said with fire emitting from his eyes still punching.
