Fallen (crawford collins fanfic)

chapter 13

"What was that!?!" Alex yells.

"I dont know. There were cameras. That's why they weren't there. They wanted to get me to come. But why?. . .wait if they wanted me to come alone that means they wanted to get me away from you guys but they never tried to even catch me they were just making sure I went. Oh my god they have them!"

"Who has who?"

"The people after me. They have Emma, Ariana, and the guys."

We went up to the room they had gotten in the hotel. We searched the whole place but they were gone.

"Hilly, come quick!"

I run to where alex was. "What?"

He pointed to the bed. There sat a box. Just like the one I got the gun from. . .It had my name on it.

I slowly began to open it.

"Don't open it!" Alex snatches my hand away.

"Why not?"

"It could be a bomb for all you know."

"And we won't know if we dont open it."

I reach out and open it. My eyes widen when I see what's inside. It was a knife with blood on it.

"They killed them?" Alex says confused.

"No. . .Its my knife."

"You killed them!?!"

"NO!" I yell

Are they doing this because I stabbed one of them? I mean they did try to kidnap me. And now they took my friends. Why? They have nothing to do with this. They wanted me not them.

"Come on. We're leaving," I take the knife and put it in my back pocket after wiping off the blood.

"Where are we going?"

I just smile back at him and walk. "We're paying them a visit."

"Why are we here again?" Alex asks.

"We need to find something that can lead us to them." I grab the door knob and once again the voices come crashing all at once.

I couldn't make out what they where saying. They were whispering a number.  I listened carefully.  It was......1......9......2....6

The number is 1926. But what does it mean? There's not enough numbers for it to be a phone number.  Maybe an address.  Yes! An address. 

"Alex, do you know a house here with the address of 1926?"

"Well,  that's not very specific. Maybe we should ask someone from here."

And I know exactly who.  I take out my phone and dial the number and press call. After the second ring they picked up.

"Hilly. Are you ok? Where are you?"

"Hey, Crawford. Can you come pick me up?"

"Yeah, of course. Where are you?"

"Um, at the alley you left me before they kidnapped me."

Before he could yell at me for not telling him I left the fairy realm to the place he specifically told me not to go to, I hang up.

A minute later Crawford arrives. He stepped out of the car. I can tell he was upset.

"I know, I'm sorry for not telling you where I was going and lying to you. I just had to come and I knew you would tell me not to. I thought I wouldn't need you but now they're gone and it's all my fault."
