Brothers aren't real

Part 16

Ainles pov
Candy man hasn't come back yet. I'm cold and hungry but I can't move. What if I don't remember my position and then candy man finds out I've moved. He could hurt me. My arms and legs won't stop shaking and my teeth are chattering. What if he doesn't come back? Maybe everyone's forgotten about me. Then I'll never get out of here. I want to go home.

Well if candu man isn't coming back then maybe I could just go home? I could get up and ask someone for their phone and call dad.

"WHAT WHERE YOU THiNkInG!? HE IS IN CLEAR DANGER AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME!? I SWEAR TO GOD! I KNOW YOU DOnT LIKE HIM BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS! hE COULD BE DEAD!..." dads voice went on and on and on. His volume never faltering nor his bulging eyes. Tears are rubbing down my face as I look at the ground trying to avoid that murderous look. None of us dare say a word. I can't even look at Emory or duke. For all I know they've left.

My face is almost frozen in shock and guilt as well as pain and guilt. Mainly guilt. I couldn't stop shaking as I slowly tried to drone out dad. It wasn't working of course. I mean it's dad yelling at us for possibly killing our little brother.

A sudden rapping noise was made on the door as a policeman walked in. He also seemed scared of dads load booming. "Hello sir. We would like to inform you that we have located the vehicle in which young ainle was taken." Why can't they just talk like normal? Like 'hey. We've found the car' would that be so hard?

The house was deadly silent for roughly 3 minutes before duke realized dad had gone. Bloody hell. Dad might just disown us. "So," Emory's voice was shaky and weak. Almost like he's been the one yelling for the past hour and a half. I looked over to see both of my brothers faces pale with bloodshot eyes standing out against there tear streamed cheeks. "so, maybe ainles okay and this will all blow over" duke looked shocked and simply walked upstairs to his bedroom I assume. I didn't here him slam a door or crying. It was just quite.

After an extra 10 minutes silence another nocking was heard at the door. Me and Emory shared a look. Don't open the door to strangers. We let the doorbell ring until we watched the lock slowly unlock and the door swung open. Both me and Emory humid to our feet ready to grab the first weapon in sight. I quickly grabbed the lamp and awaited the intruder to show them self's.

A familiar face appeared and looked apprehensive eyes set on the lamp in my hand. "Doctor? Sorry I mean smith. What are you doing here? Why do you have a key?" A look of understanding flashed across his face as he shut the door behind him. I drop the lamp and cautiously step back.

"Your dad sent me to keep an eye on you. He also said for you all to go to bed. Your grounded for life apparently. What happened he didn't tell me anything" why did dad call ainles Doctor? I mean if all people why him? And why does he have a key?

"We noticed ainle was gone, felt responsible, tried to find him ourselfs, found out he was kidnapped by a dude in a car so then we called the cops. Anyway why do you have a key?" His face reddens as he searches for an answer.

"Okay you guys bed."

"Bu-"

"Bed!" Jeez. He's not our dad he can't tell us what to do. But I'm afraid dad might actually kill us if we disobey our new babysitter.

My shaky legs stretch as I finally sit up. The world spins for a minute before finally it stands still. It's dark. Very dark. The window shows nothing but the night sky which is very pretty but doesn't help me try to find my way out. Huge doors stand at the end of the room. I know that's where candy man left from but it's heavy and won't open. He locked them didn't he?

From outside, I hear an approaching car and slamming doors. He's back! No! I shouldn't have moved! Maybe there's a back door. I can still get away. But what if he catches me? He'll kill me. I shouldn't have moved let alone tried to escape. My stomach growls loudly as I'm reminded of my ever-growing hunger.

As I look around I see another door which seems to lead to a kitchen like area. This door isn't locked and leads to another door which again isn't locked. With triumph I burst open the door and happily run out of the abandoned house. It looks smaller on the outside and more ruin like. The walls seem run down and dirty. I can't wait to get home.

The streets are empty and peaceful. It's not very light due to lack of streetlights and cars. It's very pretty. Looking up at the stars would be amazing if I was reminded of my hunger and lack of warmth. There's a few pennies here and there. I like coins. I get to see when they where made and where abouts. It sounds stupid.

I watch as the police men bust down the door yelling something about keeping there hands up and dropping all weapons. After no response all 12 ransack the place. No ones there. The back doors left wide open and looks onto an empty street. Ainles gone.

"Alright we'll keep looking. He's got to be around here somewhere"

Again I know my updating schedule isn't going great. I go through phases of reading then writing then reading then writing and right now I'm more interested in reading then writing. I should be back to normal soon
