Daddy Mars (a Bruno Mars fan fiction)

Chapter 46

* Bruno's POV *

Computers, phones, and headsets filled up the Penthouse Suite... Genie and Rachelle's room were treated like a crime scene. My room was filled with flowers and letters from my fans, friends and family.

Paparazzi showed up awhile ago too, taking my pics while I was looking at Genie's plush Ninja Turtle. I'm such a wreck....

I called Phil and the others to tell them the news. They said they already knew. Turns out Americans are quick to pick up gossip.... they tell me that everyone is mortified. That they hope Genie and Rachelle's safe return. I hope so too...

I'm waiting and waiting for any sign of life. Nothing. Lenora was always on her laptop, typing nonstop. She never told me what she'd type though... I don't blame her. Then again, I don't blame myself.

It's been 2 days since I lost my kids. Then... I got signs of life... a phone call was all it took...

I was sitting on the couch, looking at all the cops and Investigators looking through our things. Then the phone rang. A cop was about to answer it, but I shoved him away and answered it myself.

- Phone Conversation -

Bruno: "Hello?"

???: "Do you love them Señor Hernandez?"

Bruno: "...who is this?"

???: "I'm the one who took your children Señor Hernandez. I shall ask you again, do you love them?"

Bruno: "of course I do you piece of shit!!"

???: "temper temper... I'm afraid your children will have to pay for your arrogance" (scream)

Bruno: "... Genie!!"

???: (screaming fades) "now, do we understand eachother?"

Bruno: "you mother..."

???: "I'm glad we're on the same page Señor Hernandez. Listen closely.... how much money do you have?"

Bruno: "...."

???: (scream) "I shall ask again... how much money do you have? and please respond quickly. Genevieve does not look so well"

Bruno: "I have more than a million dollars in my account...."

???: "excellent. 500 thousand each for your children yes?"

Bruno: ".... yes"

???: "Very well then. 500K each. A million dollars for both Genie and Rachelle."

Bruno: "...yes"

???: "you will drive to La Diana fountain at 1 am. You'll drive around the circle twice. Remove your shirt and hold it out the window to identify the car. There is a payphone in the southeast corner. It will ring. Answer it. Await further instructions"

- Hang up -

I threw the phone and grabbed my keys and went to the car. We rented one for the week. I drove to the nearest bank and withdrew the million. They thought I was nuts. I don't give a fuck.

I drove to La Diana fountain, arriving exactly at 1 a.m.

I drove around the circle twice, taking off my shirt and stopping at the payphone. I hear it ring. I answer it to hear the asshole's voice again.

- Phone Conversation -

???: "Ahh you've made it!"

Bruno: "What's next?"

???: "there is a map at the top of the phone"

Bruno: "I see it"

???: "follow it. Put the money in the trunk of the red car. You have one hour"

- Hang up -

I ran to the car and drove to the destination. It was a half hour drive and half hour walk to the destination. I dragged the bags of money to a fenced wall.

I heard a whistle. Not again....

I took out the pistol I taken from Lenora's belt. I've no idea how to use one. But I've seen enough movies to have an idea.

I see something move in the shadows. I shot it. There was a scream and the shadow fell. Then the guns roared. I dragged the bags in one hand and shot with the other. I'm not losing my children so easily.

I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder. I saw a bullet lodged into my skin. I felt another go into my chest.

I fell to the ground with numbness surrounding me. I heard footsteps as I felt the bags of money leaving my grip.

"Okay boys, we're done here"

That voice.... I was able to choke out her name. "Natalie"

I felt her cold lips press against mine.

"You should've never trusted the Snake Bruno"

*I've tried my best to make this as suspenseful as possible!!!

Well here's the chapter. Just a few more updates and DM will be over! And the sequel will be up!!
