Finding Maze

Chapter 24

Haze POV

"she could be anywhere in Times Square " I said, as we looked at the flock of people walking.

" I can't get any further. This the farthest, I need to be closer to her if I want to exactly find her " she said, as she furiously typed on the tab.

"We wouldn't be needing that tracker if we knew that" I pointed out, I sighed and looked around. There were only lots and lots of people, if anyone gets lost here I don't think you can get back without a phone.

"I know, dammit " Miley gritted.

"Are you sure this is the right place? I mean Liam is a hacker too. What if he did something to her phone? " I asked.

"Her phone is in the backside of her sports bra pocket and I am pretty sure he doesn't know about bra pockets" she said, not glancing my way. " And I don't really think, we not finding Jenna, is his intention right now"

"bra pockets? " I whispered to myself but nodded my head nevertheless.

"She is more towards the direction pointing towards left. That's the most I can get" Miley said, closing the tab.

"Fine. Let's search that side, from the background check I have done on Liam. I don't think he can afford a fancy place to hide Jenna. So look out for closed shops or places that look baren but not hidden" I said.

"Alright" she said nodding her head and got on my bike.

I drove the bike slowly looking around the place, for any shop which looked out of place but was in it at the same time, I stopped my bike when I saw a shop which had neon lights which said 'open' but the lights inside the shop were switched off.

I glanced at Miley, she got down from the bike looked at the entry for cameras. She picked up her cell phone from her back pocket and dialled Jenna's number. We waited. And of course a minion themed song echoed from that shop for a second and then complete silence. Miley pointed to the door with her index finger. I nodded.

I parked my bike near the shop and got down, I broke the window on the main door and opened the lock from inside. We crept inside the room, I looked around the place for any sign of Jenna. There was nothing but neon lights and darkness.

"I will take upstairs, you take the basement and this floor" I said.

Miley nodded. I climbed upstairs slowly and tightened the grasp on my gun, I pointed it out the moment I reached, but there were no one.

I walked slowly, hiding behind the pillars and moving. I stopped when I heard the voices coming from the right. I walked slowly and carefully and hid myself behind a shelf.

"She is now completely out" a voice said.

"Good. That's what I wanted" Liam said.

"What do we do now? " another person asked.

"We wait" Liam answered.

"For Haze? " the same voice asked.

"I don't think he will actually come. Cause Jenna is nothing but a dealer for Haze. We kill her, Haze no longer gets weapons. I am sure he will find another way. But the person we are waiting for, is not him, it's her niece, Miley Collins " Liam informed playing with his gun.

"Miley Collins? Why her?"

"I have plans with her. She can be an asset to me"

"So this is not a revenge plan, at all? "

"I mean we are gonna kill Jenna in the end, so it will benefit us as Haze won't have any weapons for a period of week or so and we will also get Miley. If you consider that, then it's a revenge " he said.
