I honestly can't say I remember much from that night we spent the whole night with the police telling them and where we saw her, the last his she said, what she drank and ate. So many questions were asked that at some point I just couldn't answer them anymore, I knew the answers I just couldn't understand. But looking back even if I had gone home that night I wouldn't have been able to sleep, Sh.e.l.ly's gone, her place was trashed, and her cat was ruthlessly murdered. I don't think I'll ever look at a bathtub the same way since that night.
Morning finally came we were released with only 30 minutes till we had to clock in to work since I lived further away, we both just went to carols house to freshen up and change. Thankfully carol wears the same size as me, so I was able to barrow some clothes.
After work we both went our separate ways and headed back to our own apartments. When I arrived at my apartments parking garage I had an odd feeling, something didn't feel right. I waited a few minutes for the parking garage guard to come around to my end of the garage on his patrol. I quickly got out and went to the elevator, making sure I was in his sight and no one else was around. After getting to my floor I quickly got to my apartment and unlocked once inside I turned and locked both the dead bolt and the chain lock on the door.
I took a long sigh of relief and turned around and slid down the door, I glanced up at my apartment and saw my living room straight ahead of me. But something didn't feel right, that's when I noticed that there was some one laying in front of the couch on the floor, I could see there arm and some of there hair. My heart began to race, who on earth was in my apartment and why were they sleeping on my floor, as I was thinking what to do I noticed that it was a women's arm and she had a bracelet on. That bracelet I recognized it, that was Sh.e.l.ly's bracelet, not just that, that was her. How did she get into my apartment? why was she sleeping there?
I got up and sprinted to her, as soon as I got to her I shook her trying to wake her up. There was blood on her head, I suddenly got the strong smell of tobacco. Out of no where a puff of smoke came out from behind me right in to my face.
"What on earth?" I stuttered to say as I violently coughed from the smell.
I turned to find myself face to face with a man crouching down behind me and smoking. He had long black hair and in even though he was crouching I could tell he was tall easily 6 foot. Behind him stood two more tall men, these two looked some what like military men right down to the hair cut only difference was they all wore shades and suits.
" Who are you guys? How did you get into my apartment? What did you do to Sh.e.l.ly?" I yelled at the man crouching in front of me.
"Nothing much, we just had a little bit of fun with her. She didn't feel like giving us what we wanted, so we made some use of her and released some of our stress out on her. So what about you?" He said as he grabbed my chin and lifted my face to reach his gaze.
"What are you talking about? What do you want?" I stuttered.
"Don't give me that s.h.i.+t, you know d.a.m.n well what we want! Now hand it over or we'll do the same to you as we did her."
"I don't know what your talking about, please just don't hurt me and ill..."
His phone started ringing, he stood up turned to his men and said "keep an eye on her" and left to the other room to answer his phone.
"oh G.o.d, what's going on? what's gonna happen to me?"
