.Out of breath and too drunk to continue, he quickly gave up.With her lungs ready to burst, Serena looked over her shoulder and watched the thug turn away.Ready to collapse, she slowed her pace and forced herself to keep moving.A minute later, with the men far behind and the apartments just in front of her, she slowed to a walk.Breathing heavily and her vision blurred, she was nearly on the edge of blackout.She crossed under a fence and headed into the apartment area, scanning for a place to hide.Located next to the apartments, she spotted a trash dumpster.With one more look around, she hurried in behind it and collapsed to the ground.Shielded on two sides, it was as good a place to hide as any.Lying on her back, she gasped for air as her vision slowly became clear once more.Physically and emotionally spent, she raised her weakened hands to her face and began to cry.~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~Misha was the first to enter.He stared at the broken door in disbelief.Panic crossed through his mind as he envisioned Nicolae’s rage.“Sergei, you idiot.Get in here! The girl is gone!” Misha shouted over his shoulder as he ran to the back of the room.Sergei instantly charged into the room and followed behind Misha.As the two stood in Serena’s empty room, a sense of dread and doom spread over them like a heavy blanket.“You fool.I knew you should have stayed, like Alexi ordered.They will kill the both of us for this,” Misha spat angrily.“Maybe we should run.If we leave now, we’ll have time to get away,” Sergei suggested in desperation.“You idiot, Nicolae’s hands can reach you anywhere.He knows too many people.If we run now, we’ll be dead in an hour,” Misha said.“We were only gone a short time.She can’t be far.Let’s search the area,” Sergei said.Without another word, the two hurried from floor to floor, searching every room, looking at every conceivable place one could hide.Frantically, Sergei ran outside and searched the grounds.He ran out into the road and listened.“Anything?” Misha yelled from the front door.Sergei only shook his head.Misha ran upstairs.He burst through the door to their office and grappled for the phone.Punching the numbers in, his shaking hands fumbled with the handset, finally placing it to his ear.“Alexi! We’ve got a big problem!” Misha shouted into the receiver frantically.“Don’t tell me it’s the girl,” Alexi guessed, now instantly anxious.“I’m sorry, Alexi.We left to get something to eat and when we returned, she was gone.Looks like she broke open the door,” Misha explained, nervously.Dead silence fell between the two men.The Alexi spoke.“You fools.You have killed us all.Nicolae will never stand for such incompetence,” he said, now seething with anger.“How long ago? How much time?”“About an hour,” Misha responded quickly.“Ok, she can’t be far.Make a five mile sweep of the area.Call me with any news.I’ll call Nicolae.”With the abrupt disconnection, Misha looked over to Sergei, his face filled with fear.“He’s calling Nicolae.We won’t make it through the night.”~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~Alexi hesitated momentarily.He looked down at his phone and figured his options.Swallowing hard, he dialed.Still driving his car, he listened to the dial tone with dread.“Alexi, where are you? I’ve been waiting,” Nicolae said, impatiently.“Nicolae, we’ve got a bigger problem right now,” Alexi said.There was only silence.“What is it?” Nicolae said suspiciously.“The girl escaped.I don’t have all the details, but all I know is she’s gone.”“WHAT!” Nicolae blurted into the receiver.“When?”“About an hour ago,” Alexi replied.“I can’t believe this.How could she have escaped? There are always two men watching her.”“I’m sorry, Nicolae.I don’t have all the details.All I know is that Misha and Sergei were watching her and then she disappeared.”“HOLY SHIT! This could bring us down.This could bring us ALL down,” Nicolae shouted in a panicked tone.“I’ve got them doing a five mile sweep of the area,” Alexi responded feebly.“Never mind that.This is a crisis.I’m calling the Inspector,” Nicolae said in determined tone.“The Inspector?” Alexi questioned momentarily, then reconsidered.“Yes, the Inspector.He’s perfect.”“Call everyone in the area.He’s going to need all the help he can get.”“Yes, sir,” Alexi replied simply.~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~Serena sat up and rubbed her calves.After nearly a half hour of rest, her body still felt weak.As she stood and surveyed her surroundings, the apartments looked run down and decrepit [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
