Title: Finding Out Who

Chapter 15
I was in a small, and very bright room. The glare of the lights was almost painful.
What really confused me though, was why the bad guys wanted me here. What could I do
for them? I didn’t have any information about my dad’s papers. My dad didn’t even have
enough time to tell my mom about the papers! Even less time to tell his 2 year old
daughter, which was how old I was when my dad was killed.

After about 10 minutes of sitting in the burning lights, two men dressed in heavy
black uniforms, and holding guns, came, untied my legs so I could walk, and took me to
another room with lights just as bright as the ones in the room I was in last.
Yet, it doesn’t mater how bright the lights were, as much as it matters who was in
the room, tied up as I had been. With a two day old beard, I saw poor, beaten up, sweaty
old Perry. I was relieved to see him alive, it was just the look on his face. It looked
painfully scared, and ready to just give up hope of anything, and when Perry saw me being
pushed into the room, he went back to staring at the floor, and began to cry. I could
understand when he cried for my dad a month or two ago, but crying now? I didn’t like
seeing him cry because of me coming into the room. What was going to happen?
There was another man standing behind Perry, with an evil grin curling his lips. He
was dressed much nicer than the guards, and looked evil. An evil man with evil thoughts.
He was kind of pudgy, and a very thin ring of gray hair around a mostly bald head.
One of the guards pushed me farther into the room, and then he stood to
attention.
"You know this girl, correct?" The pudgy man asked Perry.
"Yes sir." Perry managed to wisper out. His voice sounded hoarse. For all I knew,
he’d been through torture since the last time I’d seen him.
"If there was a gun up to this little girl’s head, would you give me the information
I want?" The pudgy man asked Perry in a little baby voice.
All of a sudden, Perry’s eyes widened, "Please, I’ll do anything if you don’t hurt
Kitty! She means to much to me! Please! I’ll do anything! Just leave Kitty alone!"
"Go ahead, boys." The pudgy man told the guards in the middle of Perry’s plea.
I heard someone cauk a gun, and then I felt the cold barrel of a gun being pushed
right on the back of my head.
"No!" I heard Perry yelp.
"Now," the pudgy man began as Perry said, "Please! I beg of you! Oh, gosh, not
her!" but the pudgy man continued, "Where is Ozrob hiding out! Tell me now, or the girl
dies."
What? Ozrob, as in my last name? Did Perry help my mom to hide out? This was
really starting to scare me.
"I. . . I. . ." Perry stuttered.
"Well? Who are you rooting for? Will you let Ozrob die, or not tell us anything
and let the younger Ozrob die?"
I couldn’t believe my ears. Who was who? I just couldn’t think. My head was
spinning.
"He’s in the deserted old Smith house. It’s about 9 miles west of my hideout."
Perry seemed to wisper it ever so softy. I could barley understand what he said. All I heard
was "9 miles west", nothing else. I had no clue that he was talking about a man. I thought
that my mom was in trouble.
The pudgy man widened his grin, which now stretched from ear to ear, and as he
grabbed me by the arm and led me out the door, he yelled back at the guards still standing
in the room with Perry, "You may now dispose of Perry."
I didn’t want to think of what they were going to do to him, But then I heard. . .
BANG!
It was a single gunshot.
