Chapter 1 Foggy Existence
As I exhale a single tear falls from my fridgid self my feet won't move and...
I wake up in a cold sweat "Elliot" my mom would call out asking the same question Are you going to school is been almost a month.
Newspapers are Sprawled out covering the kitchen table.
I. Can't walk in there neither can my father.
Head of Police and he can't even get answers from lomg term colleagues booted from his role.(Temporarily)
Walking into the living room wearing a red shirt and baggy black jeans with a hoodie I haven't spoken to my parents in six months thats when it happened.
Anyway back to my misearble mute for the momment self you could feel the tension in the Air its like its suffocating.
My dad would look up sip his coffee and grunt from the dining room table after my mom would repeat "oh look hank its our son elliot" with a broken tone mom she'd hand me my lunch from the edge of the couch with her head stuck the tv with watching crime shows then she'd dial the police department's number talking to them by first name she'd suggest "why can't you try what they did on this or that"
My mind ponders what happened my friends keep telling me. And then her ex came up to me one day "I'm sorry for your loss man I mean I know she was your sister" and pow I punched him 15 year old Elliot Web is now known for beating up my sister's first and last boyfriend. I didn't know what came over me but I got called into the principal's office which smelled like week old coffee and wet dog.
Everytime i'd fall asleep fragments would pop up. Cold rainy forest evyone trying to find her somehow i crossed over into the next town cottondale I heard my sister scream then tires squeel.
The night I told my dad...
That I saw her he took it as I. I did nothing thats the first time he got violent last time I went to school with a black eye and the last time I felt like we were a family....
As I breathe in day by day I got a call from an unknown number during 6th period gym I picked it up.
After six months I heard my sisters voice emmaline crying "elliot find me" the line went dead all i could do was muster back tears and tell emaline to call back soon.
Thoughts racing through my mind I got a ride from my friend jason a senior. We became friends after the search party for my sister he rallied the entire basket ball team.
Chapter two Police
The location to said ride from jason bingo the police.
My mind was swirling the way there; I didn't freak out, I just sorta did.
Their response have three police officers on speed dial and bugged my phone so next time she calls..the station can trace and hopefully track down my sister.
She didn't call for a about two months the month of April was different.
I felt like standing still the entire time while the wirld around me inched forward. Intill one night my phone rang.
An unknown number called me like instructed I picked up. Muffled and static came through. It was about 11 pm at night and my mouth moved but my brain couldn't find the words. Crying I heard on the other line again it was emaline' I told her "please don't cry are you alright" there was a long pause I had to check my phone to make sure the line was still connected. Then she said something earth shattering emaline spoke in a whisper "Elliot (She said through tears) I don't know where I am I want to come home... I have to tell you something.
I haven't had my period, they knock me unconscious with some liquid- and... leave me alone for days on end.
My heart sank so low I felt like I was gonna puke. I asked if she was ok emaline just started crying histraically then I heard a mans voice she screamed and... and the line went dead.
After puking which seemed like forever I got dressed blowing up jasons phone till he woke up he was pissed because he was at his old ladys house. Once I explained the situation he drove me to the station. Jason told me he felt sick to his stomach and he wanted to murder those pychos.
Once we arrived ten troopers were on standby and my dad was there which could not be good.
Once we walked in my dad was downing a shot of Rum. Then fireball swearing up and down that he wants whoever hurt little girl well- Mr. Web " I want those bastards dead! You fucking hear me dead!" It broke my dads colleagues hearts to see him like that... it took four of them to detain him into the holding tank till he sobered up.
While he was there the police informed me that they got a postive id on the location of my sister she's been missing for over 9 nearly a year with summer quckly approaching.
We came up with a plan.
The head of the police who used to be second in command before this case popped up.
He Told me that she had been taken into the next couple States over.Since we live in Jackson, Mississippi.
My sister Emeline was taken into Florida by those! Those ruffians! I thought.
Once I collected my cool they called up the local police department, swat, and ems letting them know that they would be doing the drop and needed back up tomorrow night.
Chapter 3 Rescue
The following day I stayed home from school while collecting my thoughts.
Only 15 never would a thought like this race through my mind I get to hold, shoot and learn commands and phrases cops use everyday on the job.
Nerves took overcame me,as the clock struck four pm
We all drove well except me I drove in the back with my knees shaking horribly.
Looking down then up hearing the swat team move in busting down a door in the process after aperhending the subject;my sissters kidnapper he was taken into custody. I had propped up my hoodie over my head I was told my sister Emaline was calling out to me and for obvious reasons she would only come to me.
Walking into the dust ridden house I couldn't help but cough into the wrist end of my navey blue jacket while the swat team directed me towards my little sister who was only three minutes younger than me.
I heard her crying "Emaline" I cried out "its your brother Elliot" Seeing her shaking in the corner clutching something in her hand with only a spare baggy tee shirt and what looks like hand me down sweats crying uncontrollably.
It broke my heart the once smiling, laughing teen who was looking forward to sophomore year her spirit broken..
"Emaline" Once she caught a glimpse of me she stopped crying.. "Emaline" I said again my voice shaky "I'm here it's me your brother I'm here to take you home can you walk"?
Emaline hesitated then shook her head.
Allowing me to walk closer I was now at the edge of the bed next to her I could hug her and cry with reilf if I wanted to.
"Can I pick you up if you can't walk"
All Emaline did was nod.
Picking her up bridal style while she clung to my shirt Enaline was shaking with unease.
Walking out of that Dust whole that had become my sisters hell for almost a year had finally come to a halt, a close I guess.
Its been a month since my sister has come home and... Emaline;my parents reactions well let me just let Emaline tell you the rest.
Signing off for Now.. Elliot H. Web.
