Chapter 14

Travis and Pue


Travis Journal

It's been 1 week since Sam, her sister Sarah, and the friend Tony vanished from inside the house. I have been thinking of all kinds of possibilities of how they might have escaped from my vision. The plausible one is that they sneaked out through a small tunnel under the house and now they are hiding from my boss Pue Dexter. Speaking of my boss, he almost fired me for "creating this entire situation". I don't know why he is making this out to be a big deal ..OH YES I DO! Aliens from another world or universe are putting pressure on him. I can't believe I said aliens like it's normal. Okay recap, I accidentally saw a green vine man,a floating blob of water, and a man that was leaking lava out of his head threatening my boss for that house. I need to know what happened in that house and why it's so important. It seems like my boss won't be telling me any time soon so..... 

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Knock Knock!

       I roll off my bed and open the door to see my little sister at the door smiling. As I grunted "What you want Tallie?" Tallie sees the journal and says "You still write in your journal..aren't you kinda too old for that?" I look at her and say "It's therapeutic to have a journal..we all can't have our walls up and hold everything in like you. Also, when are you moving to your new place? You told me that you were only going to crash here for like a week or two. It's been a month." Tallie smiles and sweetly says "Bro, I need like one more month, then I promise to move out. I have to stack my cash up also, how's it going at work? How's the big boss? Seriously, tell him thank you. I really appreciate what he did to help our family out." I walk to my bed to close the journal and say "It's going...good, but I gotta go now. Yeah, I think he already knows how much we appreciate him. He basically saved us. I'll be working late so I won't be home for dinner." As I was walking out, Pue Dexter called him to meet him in the office.



       As I began walking to my job, Buck called after me to slow down. As Buck catches up with me, he says "Bro, I haven't seen you around. What's going on?" I side-eye him and say "What you mean, I've been doing field work." Buck laughs and jokingly says "So you didn't get fired? Look, I have to make sure that my bro is doing okay. Also how is the case going? Did you use my advice?" I stop and look blankly at him. Travis says "No and why are you invested in this case?" Buck looks down and grimly replies "Look, I can help you with this case. I have some buddies that can track down those girls and we can have everything solved. They won't kill them, but they will keep them quiet." I sighs and says "Buck don't do anything stupid. I got this handle and leave those girls alone." As I'm walking in the building, I see my boss waiting in the lobby. He tells me to follow him to his car.


       When we get in the car, Pue tells me that they are going for a ride and to buckle up. I couldn't handle the silence, so I asked "Any luck on the case?" He tells me to be quiet. Ten minutes later, we arrived at a burgundy house that looked like a dilapidated house. I laughingly asked "Are you here to kill me because you didn't have waste gas to do it!" Pue walks up to the stairs and nonchalantly says "I saw you trying to look into the XF Family case. This was their house ...well at least what used to be their house. Follow me and don't touch anything." As I walk into the house, I see red tattered curtains falling from the rods. The old wooden floor has small holes that had a bright light shining through it. The house smell has a metallic taste to it.


       I ask "So what happened here? We are only in the walkway and a lot of possible outcomes are popping up in my head. Is there a basement in this house? It didn't look like it?" Pue walks to a wooden wall that has a gaping big hole in it and says "It smells sweet..wait what are you trying to show me?


      Pue finally looks me in my eyes and asks "Where do you think those sisters disappeared to....?" I bend down to look through the hole and see blue thick grass and snails that fly. In shock I ask "Is this an illusion or something? This can't be the backyard. Wait, you think they somehow arrived in this place? What is this place? Did the XF Family go through this hole?


      Pue laughs and says "sometimes, we have people slip through to Clashings. It is a world that is similar to Earth, but different at the same time. It is also where my associates come from, you know about them. You were there in the meeting with me ..watching. What? Did you think I wouldn't find out?


       I drop down on my knees and beg for forgiveness . Pue laughs and whispers "How did the date go with ...Sam?


       I freeze up and say "You've been following me...why?

       Pue smirks and snidely remarks "I wanted to see if I could trust you, but it seems like..."

       I interrupt him and say "I wouldn't do anything to lose your trust.."

       Pue smiles and says "Really because you were looking very happy on that little date of yours..." I might just use him to get to the sisters, then kill them all


       I began to sweat bullets and stood up to face Pue. I plead "Anything..I'll do anything to earn your trust back. Just say the word." He's been following me this entire week. He probably knows about me trying to get information about the XF Family case. My family...they might be in trouble because of me. Just when everything was starting to settle down and actually be good... I can't lose his trust but I can't betray Sam. She trusts me. Oh no..What do I do?


       Pue smiles and says "Well if you want to earn my trust back, then I have a way..."

       I done laid down the bait..now it's time to trap him

       I gratefully smile and say "I will do anything!" Pue smiles and starts patting me on the back. He happily says "It's alright son..BREATHE! I just need you to bring back Sam and Sarah to earth. That's all you need to do!


       I take a deep breath and finally look him in the eyes. I asked "Are you sure that's it? No one will get hurt?"

       Pue smiles and says "I guarantee you that all I want to do is talk to those girls? Don't worry...treat it as a business meeting between colleagues. They have something that I want and I can give them something that they want..SIMPLE SON!"

     I happily smile and say "Okay, I will bring them back and we will all talk to end this!"

       Pue pats me on the back and says "Great! First let's get you ready! Now the trap has been set down, so all I need to do is sit back and watch...
