Jason's P.O.V.
The note said...
"Go to your house... -Killer"
So it said that I should go to my house, these stupid notes are wasting my time, why can't the killer just lead me to them already? Is this a silly game?! I really need to hurry! Allie, Uncle Ben and Cuddles are all captured by the killer!
I went outside of Allie's house, I walked and walked until I reached my house. I want to see what's inside. Wait, where's my bag?! I'm so stupid, I left my bag in Allie's house. The keys are in there too.
I slapped my self again and again in the face because of how stupid I am, but that won't do anything. I immediately ran away from my house, on the way back to Allie's apartment. When I reached Allie's house, I opened the door, it's not locked anyway. I went inside and I grabbed the bag immediately from the couch, I decided that I should lock Allie's door when I'll go out, so I tried to find the keys.
I searched in the desk, the table, the kitchen, the dining room, the living room, even her bedroom, but I didn't find it anywhere, then I saw the blanket, it looks like it's covering something. I removed the blanket from the bed, I finally saw the keys.
I grabbed the keys from the bed and I went to the living room. I grabbed my bag from the couch, and I went outside and tried to lock the door.. but.. It turns out that the keys I found wasn't the key for the door. But while I was searching, I found a locked drawer, maybe that's where the keys are.
I went back inside Allie's house and I put my bag in the couch, I got the key and I unlocked the drawer, and I was right. This key was the key for this drawer. But all I saw are Allie's dresses. No sign of a key. I kept on searching Allie's house, and while I was searching in the living room, I broke the vase where the clue was. And when I broke it, inside it was a key.
"This could be the key to Allie's door." I told myself then I laid down on the floor, tired and stressed, and worried about Allie and my uncle.
Then I stood up. I went outside of Allie's apartment and tried to lock the door, and finally the door was locked. I felt so relieved! I put the keys in my pocket. And then I started running back to my house.
I ran and ran, and I got back to my house. Finally! I can finish this. I grabbed my.. wait.. I left my bag at Allie's house again!
"I left my bag at her house again?!" I told myself
I slapped my face again and again and some bystanders saw me and made fun of me. I heard one say that I was drunk.
"I'm not drunk!" I shouted, then the bystanders ran away looking at me like they're annoyed by me and they're angry at me. Maybe I just creeped them out.
"Ugh, how stupid can I be!!!" I yelled loudly as I slapped my face, but Allie's slap is still harder.
I made up my mind and I ran again, back to Allie's apartment.
"The sky is getting cloudy, I should run faster." I told myself so I ran faster and faster.
I'm worn out, but still, I can run and I reached Allie's house. I grabbed the key from my pocket and I unlocked the door and I opened it. I went inside and quickly grabbed my bag and I went out of Allie's apartment. I locked the door and I walked back home.
"The sky is getting cloudier, I should walk faster, or maybe I should run." I told myself while the sky is getting darker.
I'm worn out. I'm tired. I'm stressed. All because of my stupidity!
"I can't run, my legs hurt! Some people are looking at me weirdly. I'm... so.. tired." I said while I started inhaling and exhaling.
"I... can't.... take...... this......... anymore.............." I said as I fell on the ground, everything went blurry and I'm getting dizzy. The things I saw looked like swirling objects. My head was hurting real bad. And then I closed my eyes. I blacked out.
--------------------
6 hours later...
"Where am I?!" I said as I opened my eyes, I also saw a person staring at me.
I think I'm at the hospital. When I opened my eyes, I saw Thomas looking at me as I was laying down.
"Hey Jason, It's me Thomas! What happened? I saw you unconscious near your house, I called the ambulance so you could be better. What happened to you?" Thomas asked me
"Uhh.. uhhhh.." I uttered
"Tell me!" Thomas demanded
"Okay, okay, just wait. My legs hurt." I told Thomas
"Then tell me." Thomas said
"Okay so here's what happened." I told Thomas as he started listening to me
"I found clues while I was walking towards Allie's apartment. You remember right? We talked in the police station?" I told him
"Yeah, I remember. Keep going." Thomas told me
"Wait, what time is it?" I asked Thomas
"It's already 9:00pm."
"Umm.. okay, I'm hungry, could you lend me my bag?... Wait, where's my bag?!" I asked Thomas
"It's just there, You don't have to shout, you're in a hospital!" Thomas whispered loudly at me
"Okay, okay!" I told him
Thomas stood up and got my bag on the corner. He carried it and he accidentally dropped it in my legs.
"Ouch! Why did you drop my bag in my legs?! My bag is heavy and my legs hurt!" I whispered loudly at Thomas
"Oops, sorry, it was an accident." Thomas apologized
"Okay, nevermind that." I told Thomas
I grabbed my bag and I opened it. I grabbed some food inside, I just wanted to eat, I know the nurse was going to treat me. Where is the nurse anyway? I grabbed a bottle of water and some bread in my bag.
"Have you eaten yet?" I asked Thomas
"Nope." he answered
"Here, I'll give you some bread." I told Thomas as I gave him some of my bread
"Thanks." he thanked me
We ate some bread. After we were done eating, I drank some water from a bottle I had but I didn't finish it. So I put it back inside my bag and I continued telling Thomas what happened.
"Continue." Thomas told me
"Okay, so when I reached Allie's apartment, I put my bag in the couch and I searched for some clues. I searched until I found a writing on a vase. It said "Go to your house... -Killer" So I went outside to go to my house. Which is a little far away from Allie's house. Probably a 25 minute run. When I reached my house, I tried to open the door but it was locked. The keys for the door were in my bag and I left my bag at Allie's house." I told Thomas
Thomas laughed a little but not much. It's good that he takes this a little seriously. Then it started raining outside.
"Keep going." Thomas told me
"I ran back to Allie's apartment, I got really tired. And I went inside." I said
After I was done telling Thomas the whole story, he understood. I need to save Allie, Uncle Ben, and Cuddles!
"You know, you're really lucky to remember all of that, usually people that have blackouts can't remember such things." Thomas told me
"I know." I told Thomas
"So you really need to get going? Can you walk?" Thomas asked me
"I don't know, let me try." I told Thomas
So I went up and I tried to walk. I managed to walk but it was a little difficult for me because my legs hurt. The nurse came with some food and she sat down near me.
"Good morning sir, I am Nurse Lily, here are some food for you, and water." Nurse Lily told me
"Thank you." I told nurse Lily
"About your unconsciousness, the doctor hasn't seen any brain damage or any serious disorders, it's only about an anxiety disorder, do you remember what happened recently before you fainted?" Nurse Lily told me
"He remember everything." Thomas told the nurse
"Umm.. okay, next. Were you worried about something recently?" Nurse Lily asked me another question
"Yes, I'm a detective named Jason and at this point, my friend Allie, her dog and my uncle are in serious trouble. I need to get going now!" I told Nurse Lily
"So you're the famous detective Jason?" she asked me
"Umm.. yes?" I answered
"Umm.. nevermind. Besides your anxiety, were there other things that you think made you faint?" Nurse Lily asked me
"I was tired of running and running because of my stupidity." I answered
"Well, okay. There's no serious damage." she told me
"I really need to get going but my legs hurt." I told her
"I think it's better for you if you just stay here if your legs hurt, at this point when you find them, you'll go unconscious again.
"But I really need to--" I said but Thomas cut what I said
"You need to rest Jason, don't worry, you told me Allie is a strong woman, I know she can take care of herself." Thomas told me. When did he get so serious?
"Uhhh.. Fine." I told Thomas and Nurse Lily
After the conversation, I ate the food the nurse let me to. I drank the water she gave me even though I have a water bottle in my bag. After that I rested, thinking for a while. What could have happened to Allie and uncle? And Cuddles too? Who could be the killer, is he or she someone I know? I need to stop thinking and start resting. I need to be prepared tomorrow, I might face the killer. I closed my eyes and I slept.
--------------------
I was running down the hill, I was trying my best to run away from him. I knew he would kill me! I knew no one can escape from him!
While running, I tripped into a big rock on the ground. I started to panic. I can't even stand on my own feet.
The thunders roared and the sky watered down, pouring into my face. My legs were sore from running. My eyes are becoming blurry from all my thinking. My mind was only in one word: Fatigue. I'm tired.
Then I heard the laughter from my back. I heard the footsteps are getting nearer, and nearer... then I heard the daggers are being sharpened. While I lay my front into the ground, something made me shiver in pain, the violent voice coming from my right ear.
"Come on, Jason," he chuckled, I started to sob. "Let's play daggers, shall we?" Then he dragged me into nowhere, where I tried to escaped from his grip, pulling the ground, but only ended giving tracks.
I now know: "You cannot trust the Innocent."
--------------------
"WHOA!!??" I said as I woke up. Nurse Lily got surprised.
I looked at the clock, it's 8:00am
"Are you okay? What happened?" Nurse Lily asked me curiously
"Yeah I'm okay, just a bad dream." I answered
"Oh okay." she said
"Where's Thomas?" I asked her|
"Oh, he went back home yesterday." she answered
"I understand." I said
That dream I had about the killer, why did I have it? Is this dream another clue for me? Does the killer really have daggers? Who could the killer in my dreams be?
And more importantly, what does this mean?
"You cannot trust the innocent..."
