Chapter 04

Running was no longer an option for Sarah as she knew she had been cornered by the vicious looking stray dog. Thoughts of a certain Animal control training came back to her, but all she could was think of it but not act it out. Because approaching this dog was no longer an option, as the dog had closed the distance between them.

And then it spoke telling her to come to the same place they were right then...… when she woke up. And it came down on her, she had been "DREAMING!"

It was no surprise that the dog spoke, as it had been the order of her dreams lately to entail strange sights, but the real problem was finding where the place was. From what she could remember the walls had yellow or was it green algae on it?, and there was a mobile trash can, and a closed window with three compartments and four bullet holes in the two top halves of it .... Equally shared...

Sarah had not had a good sleep since the Ambassador's demise, being the one to 'usher' the assassin into his office, she was held responsible, and was going through the court process of being either convicted for being an accomplice to the murder-amongst other charges- and getting acquitted on the grounds of being a victim herself; that is, if her lawyer was good enough. From the look of things the former was the case here.

MEANWHILE...

Preparations had begun for the birthday all for Jared not to sleep in, it was the height of his stupid pranks and yes they were 'stupid' indeed. He got everyone excited about how much it would mean to him for them to "make it happen" and it was noon already before they began to suspect that one of his stupid antics were in place and much to his loss they fell once again, because it was indeed a celebration to behold. Only Sarah would enjoy it for it was fit for a lady, but as thought Jared took his girlfriend along with him (or so they thought). The backyard was swimming in hot pink ribbons and deco-clothes making it seem like the birthday of a two year old girl, the only thing that would attract him was the grill stand. He had never wanted to celebrate his birthday after 'the' incident with his friend; so they wanted this to be well remembered, and what better way to do that than to make it a pay-back prank for him.

"ahhhhrr," Isabella his mum sighed with frustration.

"Not today Jared" Adam murmured.

This was getting to all of them, and all was angry with him.

'Where's Jared? Bernard' Izzy couldn't hold it in any more, she continued almost like a rave now

"This is all I need, in fact I need this like I need acute cold and fever" Bernard the assailed muttered under his breath.

"Calm it Izzy" Adam tried calming her, but it seemed to fall on deaf ears. And turning to Bernard, he continued "you were with them yester-eve right?"

"ye-yes sir" he stammered, nervous and shaking like a leaf in winter. Because of the large build of his imminent questioner. Mr. Adam Rynn was a man that rarely spoke harsh words or even got angry, but that was because he didn't have to say it to silence many people; Bernard being one of the lot.
