Entry 84. June 20, 2009.
[x] Give Clarissa's cellphone a try.
"Hey, that's actually a great idea. But shouldn't we focus on Selest first? I don't think we can continue to trust her."
"We agree, for the most part. She is certainly suspicious. However, she can wait. Focus on Clarissa. It's your best lead. Good luck, Felix. Be careful."
"What are you doing? Who are you calling?" Roberta asks. "Clarissa. I might be able to catch her off guard or something. Plus, there's something I have to try and find out. I have a plan," Felix explains, dialing Clarissa's number.
"Turn here," the mysterious woman says. Ever since kidnapping Melanie, the strange man has grown more nervous and guilt-ridden. His careless driving, sweat-soaked face and continual wrong turns clearly remove any doubt of this. "I SAID TURN THERE! WHAT THE HELL?" she screams, hitting him. He slams on the brakes and turns around. "I...I'm sorry... I'm sorry. It's just really hard to focus..." he explains. "WHY? We can't let Rose down! You KNOW that!" she yells. "I know... But George... What if Felix beat him? What if he's not okay..." he cringes. She glares at him with unforgiving eyes. "YOU PATHETIC MAN! I TOLD ROSE WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE TRUSTED YOU!" she roars. Instead of standing up for himself, he cowers in fear and takes the proper turn. "Fool! Weakling! INSOLENT! How can you be so pathetic to let emotions get in the way of Rose's plans?" she continues to berate him. "But h-he's my b-brother..." he stutters. The mysterious woman's eyes ignite with anger. Her face contorts more foully than one might think possible for such a woman. She slaps him again. "YOU THINK THAT MATTERS AT A TIME LIKE THIS? IF GEORGE FAILS, IT IS HIS OWN FAULT. WE HAVE OUR OWN TASK, AND WE WILL NOT FAIL! DRIVE FAS-" she shouts into his ear, before being cut off by the ring of her cellphone. Her eyes take on a different light when she looks at who the caller is.
On the road, safely out of her hiding place, Rose begins to regain her collected composure. She's too wrapped up in her plans falling apart to even shed a single tear for who was probably her only true friend, Oscar. "I swear, that man. Curse him! Couldn't he just stay in prison like a good boy? Was it really too much to ask, Chad?" she laughs. She speeds past a sign that says Lixmilo is 150 miles away. "Oh well, I guess. Haha. It's a damn good thing I already put my contingency plan into motion. I love being smart..." she smiles.
Felix taps his foot impatiently while waiting for Clarissa to pick up. "Goodness. Is she not there or something? Taking forever! Just try her later. We're wasting time," Selest points out. Felix gives her another dirty look and keeps waiting for an answer. After another couple rings, the line connects. "Hello? Clarissa?" Felix asks.
"IT'S FELIX! HOLY SH'IT! WHY IS HE CALLING ME? HE CAN'T POSSIBLY KNOW IT WAS ME!" Clarissa panics. George's brother grows even more nervous. The phone keeps ringing. "AHHH WHAT SHOULD I DO? HELP ME! WHAT SHOULD I DO?" she yells, begging. "Answer it... You can't let him get suspicious. Maybe he's just calling you for help or advice or something..." he replies, hopeful. "DAMMIT! Okay. FINE. Calming down... Calming down... I'm calm," Clarissa settles down and answers the phone. "Ah, Felix! Yeah, it's me! What's up?" she asks.
Felix motions for Roberta and Selest to quiet down. "Clarissa! I'm so glad I managed to get ahold of you! Are you okay?" he asks, laying his trap.
Clarissa's palms start to sweat. "Hum? Of course I'm okay, sweetie. Why do you ask? Is everything alright?" she responds, doing her best to stay calm.
Ever since Roberta revealed she was attacked by a man, Felix has had his suspicions of who he might be. He knows his friends well and uses it to his advantage. "I'm so glad... I'm so scared, Clarissa! They got Mel... They took her... Oh God they took her! THEY KILLED GEORGE! I BARELY GOT AWAY! I THINK THEY'RE AFTER ALL MY FRIENDS... EVERYONE I KNOW! PLEASE HELP ME!" he cries, focusing on the kill.
Clarissa stares blankly through the window, now more confused than nervous. George's brother nervously listens to the conversation. "Calm down, Felix... What did you say? Who took Mel? What happened to George?" she asks, feeling safer.
Robert and Selest watch Felix's surprisingly convincing act unfold. "I DON'T KNOW! I DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE! THEY KILLED HIM! RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! OH GOD!" Felix screams, getting ready to pounce.
Sincerely caught off guard by Felix's sudden burst of emotion and bizarre statement, she responds without even considering who her driver is. "How could they have killed George? What did they do? You didn't see their fa-" her questioning is quickly cut off. George's brother slams on the brakes and rips the phone out of Clarissa's hands. "FELIX! WHAT HAPPENED? HE'S DEAD? WHAT HAPPENED? PLEASE TELL ME HE'S OKAY!" he cries.
Felix grins in victory. "Tyler! Oh...I'm so glad you're okay too! They got him...I'm so sorry... I tried to stop them! But...but..." Felix pretends to break down.
Tyler truly does break down in tears. "No... NO! NO! I DON'T BELIEVE YOU! I SAW YOU FIGHTING HIM! DID YOU KILL HIM? DID YOU?" he yells, losing himself completely. Clarissa struggles to get the phone back, but Tyler pushes her away and gets out of the car.
That's all Felix needed to hear. His fear is confirmed as more betrayal reveals itself. "I knew it was you, Tyler! I knew you were there! You kidnapped Melanie! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER?" he screams. "Answer ME! Did you kill my brother?!" Tyler yells. "He's still alive. I have him hostage! I trusted you guys! How could you do this to me..." Felix lies. "Felix...I'm so sorry... I didn't want any of this to happen! I just wanted George to think more highly of me... For once, accept me... Please don't hurt him, okay? Please!" Tyler pleads. "You can fix this. Bring Melanie back to me. I'm still at the arboretum. Bring her back to me in one hour... Or it's all over," Felix threatens and hangs up.
Clarissa frantically races over to Tyler and knocks the phone out of his hands. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU IDIOT? WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM?" she roars. Tyler is ready to stand up for himself this time. She prepares to hit him again, but he fights back and knocks her to the ground. Tyler rushes back to the car and drives away. "DAMMIT!" Clarissa stands up and curses, punching the road. She picks up her phone and makes a call in desperation.
"Wow, Felix. Fill-me-in time. What just happened?" Roberta asks, stunned. Selest's cellphone starts ringing before he can respond. "Eh, sorry. I have to take this. I'll be right back," Selest says, getting out of the car to take the call. "Eh...anyway. Seriously. I think that was amazing. Was it?" she laughs. Felix watches Selest suspiciously as she gets out. "I think so, yeah. I definitely got him. George's brother looks up to him like a god. It's a little weird. I feared he might be involved in this too, and I was right. He's most likely the person who attacked you. If he thinks we have George, he's going to want to get him back safely. I just hope he's on his way here with Melanie," Felix explains. "Crazy... And lucky. Brilliant, but definitely lucky. Haha. What about this Clarissa woman?" she wonders. "If I'm right in thinking Tyler is going to want his brother back more than anything, I'm sure he can take care of Clarissa. I guess we have no choice but to wait. It's our only hope right now," he says.
"Dammit, Lizor. Where the hell are you?" Chad curses, closing his phone in frustration. All of his attempts to contact Lizor have been in vain. "That bastard better not be trying to get out of this now. He owes me far too much! He's not stupid enough to let Rose get him. I just need to find that coward first," he thinks. He curses again when he drives past the "Welcome to Lixmilo!" sign. "I hate this damn city," he moans.
Felix and Roberta watch Selest through the window as she talks on her phone. "Can you think of who might have called her?" he asks. "Well, not anyone she wouldn't want us hearing her talk to. She's been acting so strange. It's really not like her," she answers. "I think we need to question her on a lot of things when she's done, okay?" Felix suggests. Despite her usually sister-like friendship with Selest, Roberta nods in agreement. She can't deny her own suspicions. Suddenly, instead of coming back to the car, Selest takes off running towards the arboretum's grounds. "Oh this is just great!" he yells, shocked.
[] Chase after Selest.
[] Stay in the car.
What are the voices inside Felix's head suggesting he do?
