Lethal Elite

[29]

Melanie then approached me and Pete. "Hey don't you think she should stay in the interrogation room?"

"Why? So she can get lost in the hands of you, Tim and Avery again? No, I don't think so!" Pete said as he strung me along with him.

"She doesn't leave my sight or yours. Do you understand?" Pete whispered to Keith.

"Got it boss." Keith responded.

Me , Pete , Keith, Briggs , Melanie , Tim and Avery all began walking down the hall.

"Do you hear something?" Tim whispered.

Avery then looked over his shoulder quickly and paused. "Nah man I didn't hear anything... but are we all just not gonna talk about how the guys eyes were changing colors n shitt."

"You weren't even in the room!" Briggs whispered.

"I was too in the damn room."

"Shh you idiots before you give us away!" Keith shouted.

"If anybody is gonna give us away it's gonna be you and your loud mouth." Pete whispered

As we moved further down the hall we began approaching Pete's office.

"The door." I whispered to myself.

"Did you say something?" Keith asked.

I then moved away from Keith and scooted closer to Pete. "I said I think we should all just split up."

"Good Idea." Pete said.

"Melanie you and Briggs take the bottom floor. Tim.. Avery you guys stay on this level and then work your way to the top. While me, Amilia and Keith check the outside area and Briggs get on call and make sure that every officer in the city knows that we have several gang members on the loose if they don't already."

"You got it Michaels." Briggs whispered as he and Melanie took off with the others splitting behind them.

Me Keith and Pete then started making our way slowly downstairs.

"I have to use the restroom." I whispered.

"Are you kidding me? We just passed the bathroom upstairs." Pete whispered.

"I know but-"

"But nothing. You are going to have to hold it sweety, sorry." Keith said.

I rolled my eyes and kept walking. I was trying to think of an excuse to go back to Pete's office and see if the door in the closet was still there but I could see that with these two at hand this would be a challenge.

"There right, you know." I whispered.

"Right about what?" they said in unison.

"His eyes... I mean I know you guys saw it."

Pete then glanced at me over his shoulder. "Yeah.." he said slowly.

"And the things he was saying.. About scientists working on him and having a cure for all sickness?"

"He said that the scientist wasn't a man but a monster. A monster that turned every night when the clock struck 12. I mean what does that even mean?" I shouted.

Keith then grabbed me and put his hand over my mouth. "You are really starting to bug me with all of these questions. It is not your job to ask questions because you do not get paid for it."

He then quickly pulled his badge out of his pocket.

"You see this? This is my name and my badge number on a badge that I literally get paid to wear to literally ask all the questions I want. So be quiet and let me and my brother here do what we get paid to do."
