Freak [On Hold]

Chapter 27: you want a job done, do it yourself

The police officer looked up unamused from her paper work. "Alright so you're saying you want me to take my men to some boat, to infiltrate an underground prison that illegally houses supernatural creatures?"

Zayn pulled a face "well when you say it like that it sounds crazy!" I kicked him in the shin.

"Yep that's it!" I said cheerily.

It was 11 o'clock in the morning on a Monday and this was the result of us exhausting all our options, and Zayn being too much of a baby to try and do something.

"Sir, I don't have time for this." the woman turned back to her papers and continued to scribble various notes and information.

I turned to the others shooting them a what now? look. Liam shrugged and I stepped closer to her desk quickly getting her attention.

"Ma'am, I don't think you understand the seriousness of the situation. There is an illegal prison out there, and our friends are at the risk of being killed by a psychopathic maniac, who at the same time is a murderer. Does that not concern you?"

She blinked, her face passive.

She sighed pulling out what looked to be a missing persons form.

Now we're getting somewhere! I thought.

"Can you give me the name's of your friends?"

"Niall Horan and Harry Styles." Zayn answered.

"Brief description of Mr. Horan."

"Medium height, blue eyes, dyed blonde hair, and he's age 20. Is that enough?" Liam asked.

She nodded. "Are there any striking features that could distinguish Mr. Horan from a crowd?"

Liam thought for a second and quickly answered. "He can shape shift into different animals."

She glanced at Liam writing down what he said not taking her eyes off of him.

"How about Mr. Styles?"

I rattled off information about Harry until she asked the striking feature question.

"He has cat ears instead of human ears and has a cat tail because well, he's a hybrid."

The woman sat back in her chair examining Louis carefully.

"Aren't you going to write that down?" I asked.

She waved over a male police officer, her eyes never leaving us. "Can you get me a blood test ready for these three gentlemen?" The officer nodded and walked off.

I stood there appalled.

"Are you suggesting that I'm high?" I asked, my mouth gaping.

"Boys if you'll just have a seat over in the chairs, someone will be with right with you." she gestured towards the row of chairs on the far right wall.

"Excuse me but we will do nothing of the sort." I retorted. I felt Liam's grip suddenly on my bicep.

"Louis, calm down, that's a police officer you're talking to."

"Yeah some police officer." I snorted.

She narrowed her eyes at us and spat back through clenched teeth. "Have a seat sir."

I stood my ground. "We will not have a seat until someone decides to help us! you're the police god dammit! I thought your job was to help people!"

"Sir, I would love to do my job, but it becomes particularly hard when people like you take the law and see it as a joke!"

I was about to reply in my usual sassy manner but before I got the chance I was being quickly herded out of the office by Liam, despite the woman shouting at us to stay. I guess she was still suspicious of us being on drugs.

...

"So that was helpful." Zayn uttered once we were far enough away from the station. "I hope you now know we can get arrested for a) insulting an officer, and b) suspected of being "under the influence" "

I waved my hand dismissing his comment. "Zayn, even if we did get arrested we'd be able to pay bail and be out in no time. At this point we need to focus on the situation at hand, Niall and Harry."

He nodded seeing my point.

We sat on the stairs of a nearby building watching as some officers emerged glancing up and down the street. The three of us didn't bother moving seeing as they hadn't spotted us and that they had already begun to go back inside, probably thinking we were a bunch of pranksters anyways.

"So what's our plan now? I mean the police were such a huge help!" Liam sighed leaning back on the steps.

Zayn threw his hands in the air. "I don't know! for all we know Harry and Niall could be dead! Basicay there's nothing we can do! I mean who am I kidding, what chance do we have." I glanced over at the others who were both staring at some unknown objects in the sky. Defeat planted deeply into their expressions.

"You know, " I began. "We still have that theory about where the prison might be, and if the police aren't going to help us..."

Zayn shot me a look. "No! no, no, NO! I swear to god Louis I am not getting my ass killed by some maniac."

I stood up and nodded my head to Zayn and Liam. "Fine." And then I began to walk. I wasn't in the mood to fight with Zayn again.

"Where are you going!?" Liam shouted. I heard their foot steps behind me. They soon came to stand on ether of my sides.

"I'm gonna go save Niall and Harry." I replied. Liam and Zayn exchanged looks of bewilderment.

"By yourself?"

I nodded.

Zayn stepped in front of me. "Louis I can't let you do this. You'll get yourself killed!"

"Well if you care so much why don't you help me!?"

"Because I'm scared! I'm scared of this going completely wrong and we end up getting killed. Have you even for once considered that!? Louis I don't wanna die!"

"How about you for once stop thinking about just yourself and think about our friends!"

At this point me and Zayn had started quite the argument and began attracting a few bystanders. I guess Liam had enough of our fighting and finally stepped in.

"Guys that's enough!!" Liam shouted. "For gods sake will you quite the arguing!?"

We were immediately silent, allowing Liam to continue.

"Now look, Zayn, yes we all know that death could very possibly be in our future, we get that! Not only you feel that way okay? and Louis, instead of trying to be a hero why don't you stop and think for a second, and maybe consider asking us for help we care about the boys too! Now if we're actually gonna do this let's figure out where HMS Belfast is and figure out what our plan is and fast, if Mr. Seneca did keep Harry and Niall alive it won't be for long. So how about we all shut up, stop thinking about ourselves for ten damn minutes, and let's go and save a entire race of supernatural beings why don't we!!"

And so, we did.

...

Phew. this might very possibly be the longest most stressful chapter to get finished. I really have not had a good school experience this week😤. Anyway. I hope you've enjoyed my chapter and i'll try really hard to get another one up. It will be hard though. I'm telling you guys now I'm soo busy with school. It's really difficult to find time to even do this. But I try for you guys!

So I really hope you've enjoyed. Do what ever you want here. I love you so, so, so much!
