Jordan Again
The invisible something falls onto the ground and then I see what, or who, it is. The person is wearing a helmet and so I can’t see any face. But I think I know who it is. The only person I know who is three feet tall.
“You,” I growl. “Where is my sister?”
“Sister?” the person says.
“Yeah. My sister. You took her. Now tell me where she is!” I throw another piece of gravel at her. At least, I think it’s a female. The person who took my sister certainly was.
“Hey! Ow!” she cries, holding up her hands defensively. “Look, your problems are none of my business. I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Liar!” I launch another rock at her and it hits her helmet with a clang. “You took her! You took Jan!”
“Ow!”
“Where is she? Where is Jan?”
“Jan?”
“Yes, my sister. You know her! You took her!”
“No, I didn’t. I’m looking for someone.”
I slowly lower the hand holding another rock. “Who?”
“None of your business!” she snaps. “Thanks a lot for slowing me down.” She tries to start up the metal wing thingees on her back but they’re already dead. I throw another rock.
“Tell me!”
“Fine! Fine! Just stop throwing rocks! Her name is Janet Smyth. Ow! I said stop throwing rocks!”
“That’s my sister!”
“Wait…what? Hold it! Hold it!” I stop throwing the gravel for once.
“Now I know what’s going on here,” I say, frowning. “She had enough sense to run from you and now you’re looking for her so you can collect that ransom you want.”
“No!” she, I think, says. “Don’t you see? Your sister is a threat. If she isn’t stopped, a whole species could be in danger. She must be stopped.”
“That’s impossible! She loves animals.”
“Anima…listen, I have no time for little mu–boys right now. I’m busy.”
I grab her arm. “No, let me come. I want to find her.”
“No!”
“Let me! Please. I have to find my sister. I have to prove that Jan’s innocent. That’s what big brothers do.”
She looks at me, but I can’t tell what her expression is. “Big brother? Just how old is this Janet?”
“Ten. Shouldn’t you know?”
“Ten! How can…”
“She’s innocent. How can a ten year old brat cause so much trouble? By the way, if we’re going to find my sister together, what should I call you?”
She brakes free of my grasp. “We’re not doing this together. I’ve got a job to do, and you’ll just ruin it. And probably get me fired.”
I grab her again and say, “I won’t. You can count on that. I have to find my sister. If anything happens to her when I could have done something about it…I’ll never forgive myself.” I guess now, I couldn’t be sure if this person was male or female. At first I thought it was Ruby, the woman who kidnapped my sister. She certainly was tall enough.
“Fine,” this person says, and I let go of his (or her) arm. “And you can address me as ‘captain’. Nothing more, nothing less.”
“Alright, cap,” I smile.
