Russian Roulette, B Sherif [great novels .txt] 📗

make them act this way, it must involve money a large amount of money. I am being beaten up and tortured  I need to escape and I have to do it fast.
Michael lays in bed having flashbacks on his life with Roulette and he thinking how she got involved in all of this.
Michael Carter hands behind your back, says the correctional officer. Michael gets up wondering what is going on. The officer takes him to the interrogation room.
   "Hello Michael, my name is detective Alice, please have a seat." Michael sets down and says, "what is going on?
   "Michael I am here to talk to you about your daughter Roulette." Michael at  this point starts to panic is she okay, he asks. Detective Alice asks, "do you have any idea on where she can be right now?"
   " Michael's voice starts to raise, "if I did I would tell you guys to bring her, what kind of question is that, what kind of father do you think I am."
 Detective Alice laughs a little and replies with "if you were a good father she wouldn't even be caught in this situation. Let me show you something."
 Detective Alice shows Michael the new footage that his daughter was in. Michael breaks down in tears and cries out "what have I done."    "Michael I am here to tell you that we will find her." Michael continues to cry in agony. "The voice in the video said something about returning what's mine, what is this guy talking about? Michael looks at the detective but  is silent. Michael I need to know what this man wants so I can help you. You were arrested because you killed three people but it seems like this situation is much bigger than that. I mean they have your daughter. Did you kill someone important to him?"  " NO," Michael says. Detective Alice reaches into her bag and opens her wallet to take out her business card, "here is my card when you are ready to talk let me know."
 Janet see's Alice leave the room. "Who are you?" Janet asked.
"I am detective Alice and I'm looking into the case of Roulette Carter. Look I know your his lawyer but I need to find this girl so if there is anything that you can tell me nows the time."
" There is nothing to tell he doesn't know where she is and neither do, and maybe instead of wasting your time and asking questions to the wrong people why don't you get out and actually do your job right."
Janet enters the interrogation room where Michael is sitting down in complete shock. Janet says "I'm am so sorry that you are going through something like this."
"I need to get out of here and find her. Can't you do something?"
" Unless you know exactly where she is I don't think they'll let you out of here" said Janet
" But they want me yells Michael they want me I have what they want."
" The gun right" asked Janet.
"Yes" replied Michael.
"So you are just going to hand the gun to them" asked Janet.
"I am going to let them think that I'm going to give them the gun" says Michael with a smirk on his face.
Janet looks very worried and said, "you don't learn do you, you're playing with fire here it's not just you on the line it's also your daughter now. I don't know these men but for what I have seen so far they seem capable of murder. Janet gets up and heads for the door and says, if anything happens to her I'll never forgive you," and Janet leaves the room fast.
Janet and Michael are speaking with judge Merin. "So these people that have your daughter seem to want something of theirs that you have. It has been brought to my attention that you want to get out and look for her?" asked Judge Merin. 
"That's correct" says, Michael.
Judge Merin asked "and what do they want from you?" Janet looks at Michael and gives him a look to  not say the truth. Michael replies with, "I don't know your honour that's why I want to meet up with them to find out."
 Judge Merin looks down and then up at Michael you can tell by her face that is does not look pleased. "The only reason why I am going to agree to release you temporary is because there is a 16 year old innocent girl's life here however, there are rules and conditions there will be 2 officers with you at all times, if you even think of trying to escape I will lock you up and you will never lay eyes on your daughter again, are we clear?"
" Yes yes Michaels says excited thank you your honour."
"Don't make  me regret this decision said Jude Merin.
" You will be wearing a wire says" officer Malone." A wire laughs Michael, you can't be serious, the first think they'll do search me."
"Judge Merin rules, said  officer Malone . "We'll also be placing a tracker on you, you know just in case you decide to act dumb and run away." Both officers start to laugh.
 "Well at least put the wire more discrete."
"Can we have the room please" Janet says. Both officers leave the room. Janet's  has a worried look on her face. I just wanted to say be careful.
"I will, I've never been so scared not because of them but my daughter Michael said. She's everything to me I don't know what I would do if anything happens to her."
 Janet cuts off Michael and tells him how Roulette is such a strong and brave girl, go get your daughter!
"Lets go" officer Ross yells, Michael starts to leave and Janet follows.
"And where do you think you're going miss" says officer Ross.
"I'm his lawyer and I'm coming whether you like it or not," says Janet as she continues to follow Michael out of  the room.
Both officers, Janet, and Michael are setting in the SUV, "don't forget we got surveillance on you, this is the phone you'll be using all calls are recorded, if you pull out the wire or confess anything to them you would be violating the agreement which will then cause my team to be forced to come and arrest you, do you understand?" says officer Ross.
"Yes, now can I go and get my daughter please?" replies Michael.
Michael looks back at Janet and smile before opening the car door. Michael gets into the other car and makes the phone call to the two men that have his daughter.
"Hey we got a call" says Peter. Peter answers the phone but doesn't say a word.
"Hello? it's Michael.
"Well well Michael I see you got let out of jail, Peter says."
" I got released for lack of evidence, laughs Michael. Where is my daughter?"
 "Do you have what I want," asked Peter.
" Yes it's with me, just tell me where you are and I'll bring it in exchange for my daughter," said Michael.
"I'll text you that address," Peter says.
Michael gets into the car and Janet gets out as well Michael asks "what are you doing?"
" Be careful" says Janet and hand him a pocket knife, she doesn't say what is it because of Michael's wire. Michael hugs Janet, Michael gets in the car and receives the address and proceeds to drive to the location. As he is driving he can see in the mirror  that the car is following him.
The guy  opens the door where I am  laying there  on the floor still in pain. "Guess who's coming, I  look up , and he continues to say, your father is coming, so good news for you if he gives me what I want then you'll be free to go." I look back down at the floor. I am happy that my dad is coming but I need to know the truth and hopefully soon I'll find out.
Am I really going to leave this place, I've never wanted to go home so badly, and I miss my dad but I'm also very upset at him for putting me in this situation I hope this is all just a misunderstanding and that my father isn't in trouble with the cops. Well, he must be innocent because he's not in jail anymore or at least I don't think so. He could be lying to me.  I still need to escape somehow. I don't even know how long I've been here, feels like a lifetime.  
I'm hungry I haven't eaten in days and I don't want to ask, the pain is unbearable for the first time in my life I think I am capable of actually killing them.  I look around the room again hoping to find something to use but all I have is this lighter. I wait for my father to arrive I just want him to explain everything to me, I need to know that truth and what is going on. I hear a car pull up, then a car door slams I think its my dad so I yell "HELLO HELLO HELLO"  can anyone hear me! Then a "SHUT UP" comes from upstairs so I stop just because I don't want him to beat me up again.
Peter opens the front door as he see's Michael pull up on his driveway. "Right across the street now why didn't I think of that" says Michael. Peter has a gun pointed in Michael's face and Michael tells Peter that he is unarmed and that he just wants his daughter.
"You'll get her when I get the gun or my money."
 Let me see her so I know that she's okay." said Michael
 Peter turns to Oliver "I'll take him" he said.
"No we'll both go" Peter said angrily.
"She better be okay,"
    I hear my dad's voice I get up I'm finally going to go home now. The door opens and my dad ran and hugged me and he whispers in my ear that I am going to be okay, which was great to hear I thought for a second that my life was over. A part of me still believes that this is too good to be true, I just want this to be over.
"Do you have it" Oliver says.
 This other guy barely spoke and now he speaks. My dad says "yes I do, but its in my car."
 Peter shakes his head and says "go and get it."
" I don't trust you with my daughter she's going to come upstairs with all of us."
Peter comes close to me and I flinch every since he hit me I have become even more terrified of him. He grabs me by the arm and I cringe a little my dad see's how much pain I am in and I see his fist roll up into a ball, I thought for a second that he was going to punch him. We all go upstairs. "Wait" Peter says and he starts to search my dad, but he finds nothing. I wish my dad had something to kill these awful men. We all go outside, I say "you're hurting my arm" to Peter my dad says "let her go she's still standing right beside you." He let's go of my arm. My dad opens the trunk of the car and tells both the men "if you want it then go and get it."
 Peter says, "Oliver go and check," then and pulls out the gun at my dad and I yell  'NO PLEASE NO."
"It's okay baby it's okay" my dad says trying to calm me down although it's not working.

Janet is in the car shaking, "shouldn't we go in."
"Not until I see what he wants" says the officer.
Janet looks at Officer Ross and says, "he wants money that's why he took his daughter he owes him money from a long time ago so drive before I drive for you."
 The officer is stunned by what he just heard from Janet and says "feisty I like that, and drives. "ALL UNITS LETS GO" he says over the radio.
   "It's not here Oliver" says but before
