The Escape, Alexis Renee' Chavers [book series to read TXT] 📗

crimson eyes and her mouth hanging wide open. She smiles and giggles. “What’s so funny, Angel?” I ask Ally softly. "Mommy's got a boyfriend! Mommy's got a boyfriend!" she screams repeatedly. I don't know how she knows what a boyfriend is. But I don't make much of it, I don’t make much of anything these days. I walk pass her and pat her head. "Mommy has to go get dressed, okay Ally?" I tell her. She looks up and I look down. "Okay, mommy I’m going to go call my friend." she tells me. "Ok, Ally if you need me I’ll be in my bedroom." she gives me a thumbs up and I do so also. I walk out of my massive kitchen and into my large bedroom. It is bright in my room. The sun looks so beautiful as it reflects off my silver painted walls and red ballroom flooring. My windows are open. My room is well brightened by the sun and my skin sparkles unusually. I ignore it though. I walk over to my red dresser and grab a black tank top and a pink tank top I also pick out red high heels and a black mini skirt. Even though I am a mom I still dress like a teenager. I don't want to dress like an elderly person. Actually I really don’t want to! I go into my bathroom and get dressed quickly. I brushed my hair also. I put on my heels and was ready for the day. I walked into the living room. Today was Sunday. I just got up ten minutes ago. And I already have a call from work. I am a secret agent. My fake name for my new case is Jessica Parker. I am from New jersey. None of that’s obviously true. I'm really from Louisiana. My real name is Destin Perne. I go to my office, my heels echoing. My computer has Skype opened up. I answer the call, it is from Chief Miguel Armstrong. Or Chief Armstrong. "Chief?" I ask. "Hello, Destin. There is a problem." he says sternly.” What is it, what happened?" I ask concerned. Chief doesn't answer for a long time. He finally does. "Well, it involves your sister.” he says quietly. "How? I thought she was dead, or gone, or whatever you want to call it." I say sadly. They aren't tears of sadness. They are tears of happiness. And joy. I'm crying tears of happiness because now I know that she's alive. But the next words that come out of Miguel's mouth are horrifying. "She is in danger." he says his voice breaking." “I left her in that truck for a reason, to keep her safe and not look up at me as a homeless broke sister?" I say almost screaming. "I know your sad and a little mad but you are our best agent. Plus you Amy, and Darveous are our only agents that haven't died or were murdered." he replies. I don’t take that as offensive so I just say "Fine." and end the call. I don't know how the heck I’m supposed to find her. I turn on my large computer. Then I remember I have a searching device. If I can just remember Justin’s' last name Justin...........Jackson! That’s it Jackson! I Type in Justin Ray Jackson. It takes a couple minutes to load. One click away I will find Justin and Serenity. Right when I am about to click open my daughter walks in. "Mommy, what are you doing?" she asks. "Working, why?" I tell her. "Well, I wanted to tell you that Aunt Amy is in the kitchen." she replies. "Ok. Tell her to come in." I said. Ally did as I told her. She opened up the door and called Amy in. Of course Amy isn't her real aunt. But she's close enough. “Hey." I said. "Um hi look have you heard about Serenity?" she asked. "Yeah. Why?" I asked. "Well since your working on the case I was wondering do you want me to watch A-” "AAAAAHHH!" *BOOM* A GUN WENT OFF! Amy and I ran outside my office and out the kitchen, up the stairs and opened the door to Ally’s room. "No!" I cried. "No!" I cried again.” No." I said. A pool of blood led to her bed and under the covers. I walked over and pulled the covers off the bed. Nothing but a woman. "Where is she?" I asked. "I have no clue. Shall I call the police?" she asked. "I am the police." I replied. "I know you are, but look maybe we should call-" "SHH" I said holding back my tears. Crying and whimpering came from Ally’s closet. I walked slowly and as quietly as I could and turned the knob. The crying stopped as if the person stopped breathing. I opened the door. "Hello?" I asked. Eyes full of fear stared at me. “Mom?” she asked. I grabbed her out of the closet and picked her up, smelling her beautiful brown hair. "Mom." she kept whimpering, rocking back and forth in my arms. "What happened to that woman?" I asked. Moments passed by with no answer. "Ok then, what happened?" I asked. "She climbed through the window, there." she said pointing to the nearest window above her bed. "What happened after that?" I asked her curious. "Well, she took out a gun and pointed it at my brain." she said making a gun with her hands. "How did she die?" I asked her finally. "I." She stopped her self. "It's ok, you can tell your aunt and me." I told her putting her down. "I." she paused. "I, threw the phone at her head and then she dropped the gun and fell on my bed. I screamed then took the gun and shot her twice and ran to my closet." she explained. I gave Amy a worried look. “Am I in trouble?” she asked. “Of course not. But please do not have me worried like that.” I said putting her hair behind her ear. “Ok, momma.” she replied. “Amy, will you please watch Ally, I just can’t bear her getting hurt. Whatever that woman wants from Serenity, she wants me dead when she does it.” I said after her and I cleaned up Ally’s room, and buried the woman. “Of course. If that assassin was bad, those people are probably going to send an even better one, that can’t be killed so easily.” she replied. “Yeah but I don’t know what to do.” I said frustrated. “You could start with finding Serenity and Justin. Before the other people do. I don’t know what to say or do if something happened to Serenity. You know what I mean?” she said. “Yeah, I do. I guess that would be a good start. I tracked where Justin was on my laptop, so pack Ally up and I’ll go check my computer, deal?” I said. “Deal.” she agreed. Amy and I walked into the house and I went into my bedroom, making sure windows were locked and my bedroom door was open. I sat down at my sparkling silver desk and opened my laptop. Then finally breathed slowly, in and out. The page loaded within seconds. I took out a note and a pen. Then read his address. [Justin Jake Jackson] Address: ‘1320 Pine Field Road’. Yes! 1320 Pine Field Road, Remember Destin! Okay now remembered. After I printed out Justin’s address I helped Ally pack all her clothes up. Her bed, dresser, and all of her belongings went in the back of Amy’s truck, so no one could use her fingerprints to find her. We got all our important stuff out the house also, everything that meant something to us. Then we burned it to smithereens. “Mom, will I ever see you again?” Ally asked. “Of course, mommy just has to go on a business trip. Now, listen don’t talk to strangers, and always stay with Aunt Amy.” I ordered her. “Yes mam. But what if Auntie tells me to run?” she asked. “Then you run.” Amy told her. “As fast as your little legs can!” I finished tickling her. She smiled and laughed. “I love you mommy.” she replied running to my open arms. “I love you too.” I told her, kissing her on her cheek and fore-head, while tears streaming down my face and out of my eyes. “Go in the car, Ally.” Amy ordered, crying. “I will miss you.” Amy said. “I’ll miss you guys too. But a girl has to do what a girl has to do. Everyday tell Ally that I’m ok. Please.” I said. “I will.” she replied. She went to her truck and got in. I ran to Ally’s door. Ally was crying into her jacket. “Ally, put your hand on your heart,” I said. She did as I said. “Now every time you put your hand on heart I’ll be with you. I’ll always be with you. Now stiffen that upper lip.” I said crying and wiping the tears off her face. “I love you mommy, and I’m gonna miss you and I cant wait till’ I see you again.” she said having her hand lying on her heart. “I will too. Bye Ally!” I screamed, running to my neon purple Tahoe. It started to rain as we parted. So the house stopped burning as much. But in my heart it kept burning. I pulled out of my driveway and typed in Justin’s address on my GPS. Serenity here I come! Just stay where you are. I promise I’ll find you. Someday… I look at the time on my clock, in the car, it’s 6:00 pm. 2 hours to spare. I must call him. I pull out my cell phone and track his number. 331-7703. *RING* *RING*. “Hello?” he asks. “Hey, Karter this must be awkward that I’m calling you and you never gave me your number but I just wanted to ask if you would want to meet up in 30 minutes?” I asked. “Um, well I’m a little caught up in.. uh work. I was… uh… we should, talk later.” he stuttered. “So, you were gonna stand me up.” I said. “No. It’s just. I have to go.” he said. He hung up before I could say anything back. I waited on the phone not hanging up, hoping for his voice to say sorry, to say he would meet up with me anytime, even though I knew there wasn’t a soul there. After a minute of driving toward Serenity and Justin some thing beeped over and over again in my ear, it startled me so much I swerved a little on the road. It was the phone, I hang up and finally get to the road, I’ve been waiting to get on. I turn onto Pine fields Road, and look on the house addresses, and find I’m in the one thousands, I drive a minute down the road and finally see 1,200, I count as the houses fly by, and stop when I see 1345 I reverse and turn around and look for 1320. Then I see it and park my car 3 houses down and walk casually to the door, and knock. No one answers. I look around for a doorbell, but they don’t have one. I knock louder this time and someone answers. It’s a tall man, with brown hair and emerald eyes. “Hello, can I help you?” he asked. “I’m looking for Serenity.” I say confident. He hesitates. “I need you to be more specific.” he replies. “Serenity Perne. Age: 24. 1 sister named Destin Perne, Father: died, mother: jail.” I say in a powerful and harsh voice. “What’s your name?” he asks. “I just answered your questions I think I should see her now.” I say. “I asked you another question
