BadGirl?

68. Code.

I uncrossed my arms and looked down at him, he had also stayed all night.

"Don't think like that, it only makes it worse," I cleared my throat pushing his words to the back of my head, "what's the progress report?"

"There's no trace of her. At all. It's like she just vanished into thin air," Justin ran another hand through his hair frustrated by the situation, "her cell phones disconnected, her credit cards untouched, it's like she knew exactly what we would do before we even thought of it."

"What are you saying?" I asked.

"I think she's being fed information, like our strategy plans and where we would look..."

"So you have a mole? Are you fucking kidding me?" Toby snapped.

I pulled the door closed, if there was a mole the world didn't need to know about it.

Justin lips were in a thin line, he could only hold his anger for so long. And if Toby kept on going he would be pushed past his breaking point.

"Toby stop being a dick to him, his trying to help."

He glared at me but didn't respond.

"How do we find out who the mole is?" Jesse spoke up his voice croaky.

"With false information, it might even bring Penny out," the detective leant against his desk.

"Tell them that we've found where she is and that a team is preparing to move on her," I followed on.

"Then Penny will run and you'll be able to catch her."

"What if she gets to spooked and just kills Jackie?" Toby asked.

Justin shook his head, "Judging by what Penny's already done, she's not stupid enough to just kill her, if this is some form of revenge then she'll prolong it."

"Get the word out," Toby sighed and Justin walked out.

I heard him yelling at the others to get ready to move and that he had found the location.

He walked back in throwing us each calvary, "we have to make it believable, so strap up guys."

Taking off my suit jacket I put on the vest and the others did the same.

"What do we do now? Wait?" Toby asked once we were ready.

"Yes, I told the guys that we will be moving in a hour, they're all suiting up at the moment."

**

It had been half an hour and everyone was suited up and about to leave to and invisible location.

My phone vibrated in my pocket and I frowned at the unknown number, "Hello?"

"Hi Logan," my body stiffened at the cruel and venomous voice on the other side of the line.

"Penny Im guessing?" My voice was cold.

"Yeah, someone wants to talk to you," she laughed slightly and I heard shuffling.

"Sup beefy, can you tell Hannah that I regret funding the schools lockers, because all they've done for me is throw a party at my house," Jackie's voice was slightly strained.

"What are you saying?"

"No don't worry about me, my cousin is taking good care of me," she winced slightly.

"We're working on getting you out okay, sit tight," I whispered.

"I have a pretty shitty view here, hopefully I'll get moved so I can watch the sunset, other than that my living conditions are fine," she mumbled.

The phone was taken away from Jackie and Penny came back on, "if you ever want to see your darling Jackie again, you'll drop your acting, you don't know where I am, and you'll never know."

The line went dead.

"That was Penny, and Jackie is still alive, Penny knows it a fake, whoever is the mole knows your normal movements, meaning his closer to you than you think," I turned to Justin.

"What did Jackie say? Is she okay?" Jesse asked standing up.

"She called me beefy and them talked about the lockers at school," I frowned.

"Meat locker, she's in a meat locker, anything else?" Justin questioned.

"Then she said her cousin is taking good care of her and that she has a bad view and wants to get moved so she can see the sunset."

"Penny's moving her at sunset," Toby whispered figuring it out.

"What does the first part mean?" Jesse frowned.

"I have no idea, lets start looking for places that have a meat locker," the detective said grimly.

**

"It's almost six, the sun goes down at seven thirty, hurry up," Toby muttered more to himself then anyone else.

"Every fancy restaurant in Jai has a meat locker in it."

"It would be a old one, one that isn't used anymore, other wise she would have been frozen by now," Justin mumbled looking through so papers.

"She said her cousin is treating her well, so try a meat locker that is connected to her," I said off handedly.

All three of them looked up at me, "Where does Penny live?"

"In her families mansion..." Justin trailed off.

"They don't happen to have an abandoned meat locker...?"

"They do," Toby whispered holding up a blue print for the mansions security, "they only use it when they host events."

"She's been at home all along..." I frowned, "didn't you have your guys search her house?"

"Yeah I had the Killeen agents do it..." The detective stood up in a hast and stormed out of his office.

"What just happened?" Jesse frowned confused.

"We just found our moles, and Jackie's location..." Toby said in shock.

"Why aren't we leaving?" Jesse jumped up and looked at me expectantly.

"How the fuck am I suppose to know?" I shrugged.

"Strap up guys, we are in fact leaving," Justin told us walking back in.

"What about the agents?"

"They did try an make a run for it but they're in custody and will be questioned later," he dismissed the issue.

"Lets go then," I smiled for the first time, letting myself feel some sort of hope.

<><><><>

I'm pretty sure this is short but, oh well.

Anyways I hope that did explained a bit of stuff but if it didn't then yeah...

Next chapter in a week like always. It'll probably be about more explaining then the resolution hopefully. If I don't get it done by next Sunday then you guys may have to wait a few extra days and if you do then I'm sorry.

I'm off to watch more Awkward~ and wait for my new neighbours to move in so I can see if they're hot...

Kay bye.
