Chapter 21
Third-Person
Momo and Tyrone arrived at a two story house, in a quiet neighborhood. The house was modern, and black seems to be the owner's favorite color.
"Whose house is this?" Tyrone asked as they got out the car. Momo was hesitant to tell her brother that her complicated friend owns it.
"A friend of mine." She smiled then headed to the door. Tyrone grew suspicious about this friend that Momo was speaking of, but he put it aside and followed after her.
Momo knocked on the door and waited for it the open.
"Who is it?" A deep male voice yelled from the other side of the door. Tyrone rolled his eyes and looked at his sister.
"It's Tyrone and Momo" He said.
The door opened and a white man with brown hair stood at the door. He had on a baggy stretched out gray shirt with black stained pants. His height towered Momo but was the same as Tyrone.
He smiled when he seen Momo, "H-hi, it's been a-a while." He stuttered as his cheeks grew red.
Tyrone scrunched his face up in confusion. Why would he only acknowledge his sister and not him.
He cleared his throat loud enough for both of them to hear him, "And who are you?" The man asked.
Momo gestured to Tyrone, "This is my brother, and we need your help."
The man nodded in understanding, then opened the door wider for them to come in.
Once the door was closed the man walked them to the living room, he gave them a nervous smile. "You can take a seat, I'll be back with with some beverages for you both."
Momo smiled generously as she sat on a single seated couch, "Thank you, Nikolas."
Nikolas blushed and went away. Tyrone still had on his confused mask. He looked at his sister, then in the direction Nikolas left, then back at his sister. Finally his confusion turned into shock.
He gasped loudly and dropped his bottom on the long couch, "Oh my g-"
"Shut up" Momo gritted before he could even finish his sentence. She knew he figured it out quickly, now half of the secret is out.
Nikolas came back with a bottle of wine and three tall glasses. He placed the glasses on the table, center of the four couches. Then poured wine in each.
Momo and Tyrone took their glasses as Nikolas sat down. "So what do you need my help for?"
Tyrone put up his finger, signaling him to wait. "Your accent, it's European, where you from? Poland? Netherlands?"
Nikolas shook his head no as he smiled softly, "I'm from Switzerland"
Tyrone hummed, "So like were you born here? Or...."
He shook his head no again, "I was born in Switzerland."
Momo kicked Tyrone's leg from under the table and played it cool when he yelped in pain. She didn't want Tyrone invading into Nikolas's personal life, he gets sensitive about that and she don't like seeing him vulnerable.
"So I was wondering if you can help us find our sister." She smiled at Nikolas, who at first was concerned about Tyrone's sudden injury.
He nodded happily, "Sure, um I'll need a few information from you first to pick up a lead."
He stood up and started walking away, Momo did the same and followed after him. Tyrone remained seated as anger was coursing in his blood.
When Momo didn't sense her brother behind her, she turned around. She grew annoyed at his pettiness.
"Let's go." She gritted.
Tyrone looked at her, unfazed by her authority. "Let's go" he mocked her.
Momo really didn't want to make a scene but at the moment a scene is what she had to do. She took out her taser gun and tased her brother.
50,000-volt electric shots fired into Tyrone's body making him fizz.
A quiet short laugh exited her mouth, seeing her brother like this only gave her an idea. She could leave him being continuously shocked, but that would be mean so she released him.
He continued to fizz, and when he stopped he just laid on the ground. Momo approached him, "When your ready to meet us just ring the doorbell and I'll come get you."
She gave him a smile before leaving. This house wasn't new to her, every corner was explored by her when she was here a few months ago.
Nikolas's bedroom door was opened meaning that Nikolas went in here. So she went in, "Nik?"
There was no sign of him, so she called out for him again. "Nik, where are you?"
Large arms wrapped around her waist and someone's breath fanned her cheeks. "I'm right here." His deep voice rang in her ears.
He planted kisses all over her cheeks making her giggle. She leaned her head back on his broad chest, "I've missed you."
He turned her around and looked in her eyes, soaking in her honey brown eyes. 7 months without seeing them, to him it seems like it's the first time again.
"I've missed you too." He smiled.
The door slammed open and a breathless Tyrone walked in, making them quickly back away from each other.
Tyrone trudged to the bed and sat on it. He chugged down the remaining water that was sitting on the night stand, then discarded it back on the nightstand.
"I hate you." His huffed to his sister.
Momo smiled, "And I love you."
Nikolas chuckled at them, "Come on, let's go to my lab."
He walked into the closet and moved all the clothes aside. His hand glided on the wall before he pressed on it. The wall opened up revealing a big white lab mostly filled with computers.
Nikolas guided them in, Momo was not surprised by any of it since she's already been there already. On the other hand Tyrone's eyes could not get any bigger, "Damn you rich rich."
Momo rolled her eyes as Nikolas laughed, "Thank you I guess, so does your sister have a name?" He asked going over to one of his computers.
"Janunu Williams." Momo answered following after him.
He nodded and became typing, a picture of a younger Janunu pulled up. It looks to be her juvie mugshot, "Is this her?" Nikolas asked.
"Mhm" Tyrone confirmed.
With that Nikolas went to typing again as Momo watched him and Tyrone wondered off.
"Wow" Nikolas muttered.
"What? What is it?" Momo asked worriedly.
"She's a wanted criminal in 54 countries." That didn't surprise Momo, she knew that with Nunu's new line of work she'll be wanted.
"What else do you have on her?" She asked.
"Well from this not much. Just her life in the U.S until she left it. Also the wanted criminal part too."
Momo groaned, "I know she's in the U.S. but I need to know where. Can you look into the cities's cameras and other stuff?"
Nikolas nodded, "I can but it's going to take a while. I'm tracking a supposedly dead person, and those people are hard to find."
Momo placed her hands on Nikolas's shoulders and gently began massaging them. "Well then it's a good thing I got time."
He moaned lowly and smiled, then he went back to typing.
27 minutes and a loud gasped escaped Nikolas's mouthed. Momo stood up from her station and headed to Nikolas's station, "What is it?" She asked.
"Y-your sister."
Tyrone came running and stood next to Momo, "This better be good, you both interrupted my new hobby."
Momo rolled her eyes, "What about our sister?"
"She's Shadow." He answered
Tyrone crossed his arms and sighed loudly, "Shadow? A damn shadow? Explain shadow"
"Shadow isn't a what, it's a who. As of right now I thought shadow was a male but this video from a year ago tells me otherwise." Nikolas pointed to his screen.
He played it, the surrounding area looked to be like an office building with lots of guards were posted everywhere with lots of guns. It was dark out and in, but a dim light for an almost broken light bulb helped portray a little.
A guard dropped dead out of the 10 guards, making the rest become alert. Something dropped on the ground causing the guards rapidly shoot in that area.
While everyone was focused on the area, a figure came out the shadows and took out two more guards with a knife. The figure was quick and quiet.
When the bodies dropped the live guards turned their attention to them. "It's Shadow!" One yelled causing the others to panic.
"Everyone keep your eyes open, he can come from anywhere." Another said
Then the figure emerged from the darkness, from it's physique you can tell it was a woman. A woman dressed in all black, and her face was covered. "I'm not a he, I'm a she." The woman said. From the voice alone, Momo knew it was Janunu.
They watched her take down 7 men with just a single knife, and when she was down to the last she did something horrifying.
"N-no! No! Please!" The guard yelled as he was on the ground backing away from her. Janunu had an axe in her hand, one that she found in the emergency box.
A sinister smile was all she did before swinging it to his head. Then again and again and again.
The video was now over and everyone was silent. Momo disappointed, Tyrone scared, and Nikolas twice as scared. "How did you get this?" Momo asked.
Nikolas cleared his throat of his fear, "Um, it's a footage from the office building cameras. It was a backup camera, since the others were switched off."
"We have to find her." Tyrone whispered as he stared out.
Momo placed her hand on his shoulder, "We will, don't worry."
"W-what else did you find?" Momo said looking at Nikolas. He pointed at his other screen, "I've been connecting dots, starting from the accident on the bridge. And following up on the news, I believe your sister is not alone."
"Then she must be with that cop." Tyrone stated.
