Have you seen her?

Tianna's Past

Michael's POV ~~6 weeks later~~

I was reading a bit while the kids hung out in the game room, but there was something bothering me, I don't get how someone in high school knows how to use a gun like Tianna. I couldn't place my finger on it. I heard Paris scream, so I ran to them, and saw a box, that was attached to a rock with a note on it.

"Don't anyone touch it," I carefully reached over and grabbed the box, and carefully opened the box.

"Dad, what is it?" Prince asked. I dropped the box with a scretch. It was a dead rat. I quickly put the lid over it, and looked at the note.

"Look, I want nothing to do with you, but if you don't cooperate, your kids will end up with the same fate as your sister, So I suggest you do as I ask. I want you to go to the old theatre down on main street. on to the roof, and Rene will meet you there and will explain what I want, and don't try anything or else, we'll kill more than one family member, starting with your dear mother. Be there at 11, and no time later,"

I was in utter shock, they threatened my mother, I have to go, I can't let anyone hurt her, or anyone in my family.

"Kids pack, you're going with your uncles in Atlanta for a while," I say, trying to make it seem like it is not as big of a deal. They did as told, and I got them first class, and called Tito and Marlon to pick them up as soon as they land. I stayed home, and made sure that the doors and windows were secured and sat on the couch. It was only 2:30 in the afternoon, so I had a while to wait. The good thing is they still think Janet is long gone, but the bad thing is, I don't know what they are going to do to me when I get there, and why did it say that 'They want nothing to do with me' I hope whatever this is ends quickly.

It was time, and I waited on the roof top for an hour before someone came and I stood, fixing my black shirt.

"Well, well, well; you decided to show up after all,"her cold voice shook my bones.

"What is it? Why are you doing this to me, you killed my sister, when she had nothing to do with any of it!" I shouted, as tears filled my eyes, though they were fake.

"You took my father, I took your sister, we're even, but that's not why I'm here," she said, as three other men came out behind her, one who was the tallest of the group, and probably the leader, smoked on a cigar and step forward.

"Hello Mr. Jackson," he said, puffing out a ring of smoke.

"Who are you, and why did you let her murder my sister?" I clenched my fist.

"That was all Rene, I just wanted to grab your attention. I admit, she went overboard, but it worked didn't it?" he smiled, his teeth were white and clean, though he probably smoked three of those everyday.

"What do you want?"

"Simple, I want her," he pulled out a photo of...

"Tianna? How do you know her?" I said.

"Long story short, she saw something she shouldn't have, and I have to get rid of her,"

"No! You can't! She only a child!" I yelled, and backed away.

"Look, I don't want to have to hurt you or your family, but if you don't tell me where she is, I will kill all of you, and leave you to watch," he threatened, I frowned, and backed away.

"No, I won't let you murder her like you did my sister,"

 "Fine then, I'll give you time to think," he left, and the two other men came after me, I ran towards the stairs, and raced down them to the first level, running through the movie theatre back room, to the entrance, and ran fast to my car. I quickly jumped in, and started the car. It didn't do a thing, it kept stalling! I got out, and saw my engine was damaged, and the fuel valve cut.
