Life is Strange: Before the Storm

WOUNDS: Frank Bowers x fem!reader

Summary: "In his own way, he tried to keep her and her friends out of trouble. Yet no one asked him if he was okay. He did so much for them - and she was the only one who wanted to honestly say thank you for that."

They both have injuries, they both worry for the other - so checking up on your loved one is a must.

Notes: English isn't my first language. I apologize for any mistake I made while I wrote this short story.

I think this one deserves a longer explanation :)

I was working on this / had this in my drafts for months - and now it's finally finished! Although I wanted to make this a series, a longer story following the whole plot of the game, I decided against it. It would've been mostly literal dialogues from the game and I wasn't sure if it would've been interesting that way. Since it was originally suppoused to be a longer story I apologize if the her in this case has a little bit of a personality.

Also, Frank deserves his own stories. He doesn't get enough appreciation.

Warnings: swearing, mentioned drug use, violence, description of wounds

•••

She took a deep, nervous breath as she looked at the path in front of her. It was dark and empty - and it definitely didn't show any sign of life anywhere. She had to admit, Rachel really left her mark on the forest and probably on the whole town. Dead trees were everywhere and when she breathed the dust in, it made her sneeze and cough.

She grabbed the bag on her shoulder, her fingers were slightly shaking and there was a weird feeling in her stomach. She wanted all those feelings to stop and disappear, so she could finally concentrate - but she just couldn't give that command to her body, because it didn't want to co-operate.

Then, after a few moments of silence, she walked towards the meeting point what was sent to her through a message. Soon enough, she saw life in the chaos. There were only a few healthy trees here and there at first, but then she was walking through the forest she knew. The green and lively one.

Was it worth it though? The silence, the walk, the pain?

Even getting the stupid phone number was hard and she blushed so hard when Rachel and Chloe asked why they need to cover for her. She didn't say anything though, she just asked them to drop her off at the Two Whales diner - yet she knew they were dying from curiousity and the fact that they didn't know what was going on with her, especially after the accident.

The accident, where she saved Rachel from Damon Merrick's knife and where she was stabbed because of that decision.

She still felt the need to vomit, whenever she thought about that moment.

She was in front of Rachel and Chloe when it started, so she couldn't see what was going on behind her, but in the next second she was pushed aside by Rachel. She almost fell, but luckily she found her balance. The next thing she saw was Rachel hitting Damon Merrick in the head with a piece of heavy looking plank. The knife - what he used to threaten them - fell out of his hand, he fell too and meanwhile he pushed Frank, who landed on the ground as well. Blood was flowing from the dark wound on Damon's forehead.

She looked at Chloe who froze from shock and most likely panic, then she looked at the knife. Rachel was still standing with the plank is her hands.

And then she jumped. She jumped for the knife, trying to get it, trying to get Damon's weapon far away from it's psychotic owner.

Damon was about to get up and get to Rachel who tried to hit him again. She was there, she could feel the handle... Damon caught the plank with his left hand, trying to catch the knife with the other, but then he felt her hand on the weapon.

She tried to grab it, but her hand was kicked away after the guy pushed Rachel away, who fell. Her fingers were numb from the kick, but she didn't have time to rest and check it.

Rachel was up again, she was about to hit Damon out of anger and frustration. But she saw something Rachel didn't. She saw Damon reaching for the knife. She saw him move towards Rachel. She was sure he was about to stab her...

And then she jumped again. This time to get her friend out of harm's way which was, well - successful. Too successful. She saw Rachel barely keeping her balance and then she felt the pain. The fucking sudden, strong pain in her stomach as she landed on the ground, unable to land on her hands to push herself back up.

She heard someone scream and gasp. Maybe it was her. Maybe it wasn't. Somehow she was sure nothing left her mouth.

She turned around. She was laying on her back and she tried to find the place where the pain came from with her hands. There was something sticky. And then there was a kick.

"Oh, for the fucks sake!" she was sure Rachel was about to hit Damon again who most likely just kicked her in the stomach.

But she wasn't sure. She couldn't think. She gasped, the air ran out of her lungs, her eyes opened in fear and realization. She hugged herself with her arms to try to get away from the pain, she wanted to curl up and disappear...

She tried to get the memories out of her head as she saw light not so far away. Fire, how poetic... - with a table and two chairs, the first one full of booze of course, but that was something she expected.

Her anxiety increased when she looked at the RV she wanted to find and she felt as if her bones turned to jelly. She didn't have time to mentally kick herself for these irrelevant feelings, because in the next moment her muscles moved on their own accord. She knocked on the RV's door, then she stepped back to wait.

She was sweating - she soon realized. She tried to explain it to herself that it was because she was standing so close to the fire, but even she couldn't believe herself.

The RV's door soon opened, the man who she wanted to see was standing in the doorway, but before she could find the right words to say, to begin with; the small puppy ran towards her, jumping on and bumping into her knees, trying to make her pet him. She couldn't however, because the wound still hurt, even if she was only breathing. The puppy's answer was a gentle bite. She just smiled and let out a small laugh.

"Still a killer, I see..."

"Pompidou!"

"It's okay. No need to scold him. He just wants to play, don't you?" she looked down at the puppy still smiling, then she looked up at the man, who was still standing in the doorway. "How are you doing? I heard what happened and I wanted to know if..." she shyly looked at Pompidou who was biting her shoelace, but this time to hide the fact that she was blushing. "you are all right."

She felt his gaze on herself, mainly on her face. She knew he saw the blush she was trying to hide so desperately and she knew he was studying her every expression.

God, she felt so bad that the only thing she can do is awkwardly standing there, waiting for an answer. She can't squat down to pet Pompidou or anything, because of the wound - and in that moment it was the worst thing in the world.

"I'm fine." the answer came after a while and she had to step back to let Frank fully get out of the RV. For a few short seconds they were just standing there, examining the other - even though she still didn't dare to look him in the eye. She could almost feel his breath tickling her forehead. "I'm sorry I didn't check up on you back in the hospital." his words finally made her seek his gaze - there was some kind of softness in his eyes. "I just thought it would be awkward... you know, with family members and all that."

"Oh, don't even start with them!" she laughed as she remembered how annoyingly kind everyone tried to be to her after they found out what happened to her. Her parents didn't want to leave her alone for a second and even Joyce wanted to go and see how she was doing. She adored that woman - especially after she smuggled some food in for her. "It's so weird to see everyone suddenly becoming so annoyingly soft with you, you know."

" 'Good to know you're alright." Frank said and for a moment she thought she heard some kind of relief in his voice. It made her legs shake.

"Yeah," the blush was back again "I'm happy to see you're okay as well."

Pompidou gave up on biting her shoelace and lazily sat down between the two of them.

"Take a seat, I don't want you to stand here all night." he kept his hand on the RV's door handle for a moment and then asked: "I have some beer in the fridge if you want one."

"Sure, why not..." in reality she had plenty of reasons to say no, but she didn't want to refuse the offer. "Thank you!"

Frank was gone for a few minutes and while she was left alone, she took a seat in front of the fire. Sitting down was still a hard and uncomfortable thing to do. She had to get rid of her bag for it and she had to keep her hand on the bandaged wound to slowly sit down and find a great position. Not so long after, Pompidou curled up next to her.

"Why did you want to meet up?" she heard Frank's voice from the RV. "You need something again?"

Her heart ached from that accusation for a moment.

"No." she answered sadly. "I just- uh... wanted to make sure you are okay. I heard what happened with Damon and I didn't know your number so I couldn't call or anything before, so I-" she finished her nervous rambling after he got back with two bottles of beer in his hands. She shyly took one of them and muttered a quiet 'thank you' as Frank took a seat as well.

"I'm happy you're here."

"Yeah, me too."

There was silence for a while as they opened the beers and took a few sips.

"The damn dog seems to like you more than anyone else."

"Yes, he's real cute." she said happily as she looked at the small, sleeping body next to her chair. "His name is really French. Pompidou was the name of a French president. It means: someone from Pompidou, a place in South-East of France."

"You really are a smart ass, huh?" Frank asked, trying to sound annoyed, but she saw the small smile he was hiding.

"Come on, don't act like it bothers you!"

"You're right. It doesn't." after he took a sip from his beer he added: "It's cute."

This time she tried to hide behind the bottle she was holding to hide her rosy cheeks. "I didn't know you- found me... cute." she said slowly and waiting for an answer she took a sip from the beer as well.

"Really? I thought I made it kinda obvious."

Her teeth bumped into the glass as she tried to not choke on the alcohol she wasn't able to swallow properly. God, she really turned a rambling, awkward idiot every single time she was talking to him.

Did he really make it that obvious though?

She didn't know him for long. They met at the Firewalk concert, where she went with Chloe to try and enjoy life after an awful part of reality. It was the day they pissed off Damon's pals as well. Since that day she hasn't heard anything but jokes, kind words and praises from him - and in his own way, he tried to keep her and her friends out of trouble. Yet no one asked him if he was okay after he kept those douchebags back at the concert or after he got in fight with Merrick to give Chloe, Rachel and herself an opportunity to run away. He did so much for them - and she was the only one who wanted to honestly say thank you for that.

She quickly grabbed her bag and looked down at it, not looking at Frank while she was trying to find all the stuff she brought for him. Meanwhile she was praying to the gods above, that her hair was hiding her face well.

"Yeah, so as I was getting here I grabbed a few stuff I thought you might need." she put a paperbag on the table with the Two Whales logo on it. "I didn't know what kind of burger you like, so I stayed with cheeseburgers - I haven't really seen anyone who hates them. Also, Joyce makes the best fucking cheeseburgers in Arcadia Bay and- oh God, I am rambling again, aren't I?"

Frank didn't say anything, but she could tell he wasn't ignoring the poetic question. His eyes were filled with surprise and adoration, and she did her best to hide behind her hair again.

"Anyways, the thought that I am lying in a hospital bed with stitched up stab wounds and not knowing what's up with you didn't let me sleep peacfully. I learned how to take care of stab wounds properly, the nurse kindly showed me before she let me go, so I-" she put a first aid kit on the table, what was filled up with all the things she knew she needed "I packed everything up and got here to check if the wound you have is taken care of the healthy way... If you let me, of course..."

There was complete silence for a long time. It made her sweat nervously and she grabbed the bottle of beer again, so she can do something with her hands.

"What makes you think my wound hasn't been taken care of?" Frank asked as he touched the place above his heart, where the knife stabbed him not so long ago.

"Oh! Well I thought that it would be too risky for you, going to the hospital after you were stabbed by Damon Merrick... You wouldn't want the cops to sneak around and start to ask questions..."

Frank couldn't hold back a chuckle. "Smart ass!"

"Hey! You say it again and I'll take it as a personal insult!"

"Sorry, kid. I really don't want to insult you in any way." he said with a smile, but his voice was full of honesty. "So, Price told you everything... You can't keep anything a secret in this damn town these days, can you?"

"No, with us around you really can't." she laughed.

"Right, so you sure you won't poison me, accidentally kill me or anything?"

"I didn't go to some fancy university, Frank."

"Yet. You could make it anytime though."

She proudly smiled while her cheeks turned pink.

"So it means you trust me enough to believe I won't kill you?"

"I trusted you with the money you and Price had to get from Drew, didn't I? You made sure Price gave it to me. You stopped Damon from stabbing your friend and now you're here to check on me- with food..." the smile Frank gave her made her melt. "I don't see the reason why it would be a bad idea to let you see my wound."

She just smiled shyly as Frank put his beer down on the table, so he could reach the first aid kit to check it out properly.

"So, how do you want to do it?" he asked as he looked through the small box.

"You were stabbed on the left side of your chest weren't you? Oh, come on! Don't look at me like that, you know Chloe told me!"

" 'Course she did!"

"Right so..." she looked down for a moment at Pompidou, so she won't have to look Frank in the eyes, while saying these words: "I think you should take your shirt off or something- I mean it would be weird to stitch you up through it, wouldn't it?"

"Yeah. So this is the moment where I insert a 'if you wanted to see me shirtless all you had to do was ask' joke, right?"

"Please don't or I'll have to accidentally hurt you."

"Right, I get it." Frank said with a small laugh. "Wait a second."

He put the beer down and quickly got rid of his shirt, while she carefully stood up to get her chair closer to his. She kept her left hand on her stomach while she carried the furniture with her right. A few moments later she sat in front of Frank and tried to stop her hands from shaking.

"Were you the one who bandaged the wound?"

"Yes."

"All right. First I'll take this gauze off and then I'll take a proper look."

And then she put her left hand on his shoulder as she tried to get the gauze off with her right. She did her best to avoid his gaze. His skin was warm under her touch and with that it was also comforting. She let out a shaky breath as she realized he put his complete trust in her, he let her feel the way his chest moves with his breathing, he let her feel the warmth of his skin, he let her see the damaged area of his body - she can't fuck this up.

The fabric peeled off rather easily, even if it was stuck to his skin from the dried blood. Frank didn't let out any noise, but his expression meant that it wasn't painless.

"Did you take anything? I can't give you painkillers if you did unless you want to have a heart attack or something." she asked as she opened the med kit and grabbed a small, clean piece of fabric.

"Who do you think I am?"

She let out a laugh as she opened a water bottle and made the fabric wet. "Right, it was a dumb question."

She started to clean off the dried blood, but she was careful not to rub the wound or the stitches directly. She had to say he did a good enough job on the stitching. The thread seemed strong and medically acceptable, and the little holes in his skin where the thread came out seemed healthy and to her relief it wasn't infected at all.

"I have to say that you did a great job." she said as she put the water bottle and the fabric away. "I have close to nothing to do in this case."

She then grabbed a towel from the first aid kit and made sure she dried the area. Soon she was opening a white package what was full of square gauze and put one on the wound.

"Keep it in place, please."

She got some surgical tape and cut four pieces after measuring the gauze, then applied them along the edges of the square gauze so it was half on the dressing and half of his skin.

"Here, that's all I can do. At least I'll sleep calmly at night." she said as he put his shirt back on.

She was about to stand up and put the chair back to its place when he grabbed her hand as gently as possible causing her to stop her movement, and remain sitting on the furniture. "Thanks."

"It's fine. Don't mention it"

"I do appreciate the things you do for me, you know. You look after me, you worry about me..."

"I do the same things you do for us."

"For you." he corrected her. "I do most of that soft shit for you."

Her face was burning up. She could feel it. She tried to hide, but he didn't let her do that.

Frank's thumb softly brushed along her hand and her fingers, but when he reached the ring one and the middle one he stopped. Those two fingers on her right hand were in a bad shape, they were red and full of small cuts, not to mention the nails. The nails were the colour between black and dark purple and they'll most likely fall off after a while. The kick she's got from Damon did a number on her hand.

"Does it hurt?"

"Sometimes." she answered honestly, her voice higher than usual.

"That son of a bitch did a number on you." his voice was full of anger and worry, sending her to a whole new state of mind.

"I could say the same, you know."

"That doesn't matter, I wasn't spending weeks in a hospital room."

"To me it does." she whispered, her throat was getting dry. "And it wasn't weeks, it was only like ten days."

And then it just happened. Frank leaned in, their lips collided and the state of mind she got to when she heard the worry in his voice overtook her. Her thoughts got fuzzy, she felt dizzy and she was unsure if she'd be able to answer simple questions after he kissed her like that.

There was no war, no battle for dominance only a silent statement: I'm happy you are okay. And that statement and understanding made the kiss that passionate, yet that sweet. It was a mix of many undescribable feelings. Her stomach made flips and her face felt hot.

Her hands landed on his shoulders as he pulled her closer, causing their teeth to collide for a second - but that was easily forgettable when his hands were grabbing her waist, massaging the area gently as he pulled her towards himself more.

She was sure she would have landed on his lap if her wound was nonexistent. From the movement her stomach started to burn - and this kind of pain definitely wasn't from the passion. The feeling got a whimper then a pained moan out of her, ending the kiss sooner than she wanted to.

"Damn it, sorry." was Frank's reaction and then his right hand gently, with feather light touches found the place where the bandage on her stomach was applied to. "Didn't mean to hurt you."

His fingers started to draw circles around the wound, then he draw squares along the edges of the surgical tape.

"It's fine." she said with a smile she couldn't hide, a little out of breath. "I'm fine."

"You scared me, you know?" he started. "When you got stabbed. It scared me."

"But I'm fine. And I wouldn't be if you didn't look out for me and my friends."

"Yeah." there was a small pause, but he didn't withdraw his hands. "So do you want me to take a look at your wound as well?"

She blushed, but this time she didn't look away. "You know how to do it?"

"I learned from the best."

They shared a smile and Frank pressed a kiss to her forehead before he leaned back. "Now, those cheeseburgers are getting cold."

As she carefully stood up to get the food she bought, Frank placed the chair she was sitting on next to his one so there won't be anything between them. Pompidou, like he felt the change in the air, got up from his place and sat down next to her chair again. The puppy looked up at her with big, sweet eyes.

As they sat out there while they ate, one question formed itself in her mind: how will she explain this to her friends, who won't take secrets as an answer.

"Would you like to stay the night?"

"Can I?"

"You can." he answered with a smile as he took a sip from his beer. "Besides I gotta buy you breakfast tomorrow."

The stupid smirk what found its way up on her face was a clear answer. So was the kiss she initiated.

Damn the explanation. That can be a problem what'll have to wait 'til tomorrow.

Dreamcatcher Chptr. 19

Clark was in utter turmoil after the stabbing back at the junkyard.

The overwhelming pressure of what happened stressed him out to a whole new level as he couldn't properly settle, knowing that his girlfriend and one true love was suffering.

After half an hour of having his wound sterilised, stitched and bandaged, Clark was cleared from the emergency room and escorted out to accompany his sister. The brunette was so tired from sitting around for so long that she didn't notice her brother approach until he called her name. In an instant, Chloe shot up to her feet and threw her arms around his neck and squeezed tightly.

"You okay?" Chloe whispered into his ear.

Clark stifled a whimper and sobbed quietly. "No. H-Have you heard about Rachel yet?"

"No, nothing yet. I'm so sorry, Clark."

"Thank you, Chlo. I'm so glad I've got you here with me right now. I need you so much more than you think... I love you."

"I know. I love you too."

Breaking away from the hug, Chloe delicately sat her brother down in the spare seat beside her and sat in dead silence.

When the Amber's caught word of what had happened to their daughter, they stopped at nothing to go and see her at the hospital. But since they arrived some time after Rachel was taken off into the emergency room, there would only be so much time before she would be taken out and left to rest. So when they arrived, they met Clark and exchanged comfort and solace. Nothing else was said when they parted ways where only James and Rose were permitted to go and see their daughter.

The twins became dreary and fell into slumber due to the sheer boredom that was killing them. When they fell asleep, time flew by very quickly to the point that James Amber was able to report to them Rachel's condition.

Upon awakening, Clark jumped up to his feet and addressed James Amber.

"Mr Amber. How is she?" Clark asked anxiously.

"Rachel is going to be alright. The knife damaged her brachial artery, but didn't cut it. She's out of surgery, and now she's resting," he answered tediously. "Thank you for saving my daughter. But I need to know what happened."

"I don't... I don't know. Everything happened so fast. This junkie punk called Damon attacked us with a knife. He said he knew you and he wanted Rachel to tell him everything you were up to."

"Start over and tell me everything. Did you and Rachel try to contact Sera? I'm not going to chastise you or blame you, Clark, but I need to know the whole story."

Clark took a minute to compose himself before he gave his explanation.

"It all started after the talk last night. I was comforting Rachel when she said she was interested in finding her biological mother. So... I told her that I could help. My sister knows this dealer since we thought he might know Sera. But this Damon guy was with him."

"I know who you're talking about. Damon Merrick. He's scum. Merrick wanted dirt on me, did he?"

"He asked us why we were so interested in Sera. W-We didn't say anything. I-I-I promise."

Even when he spoke, Clark was still in shock about what happened; about how horrified he was in coming so close to losing the best thing that ever happened to him.

"Is that how it became violent?"

"W-Well, I was the one who started it - the fight, I mean. He drew the knife on us and when I got a chance, I hit him over the head with a two by four. But that was after Rachel got angry when he wouldn't tell us where Sera was." Clark explained with a trembling voice.

James sighed deeply out of his nostrils and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"This is exactly what I've been afraid of." James shared. "Rachel won't let anything stop her. She is like her mother. Quick-tempered. Rash. I've always been afraid of losing her the way I lost Sera. What happened next?"

"Frank - Chloe's dealer - held him off while we got in the truck. I-I was so focused on trying to keep Rachel away. I used my belt as a tourniquet to try and stop the bleeding. I don't know what happened to Frank or Damon afterwards."

Chloe was busy trying to process everything they were saying, seeing as how she was still missing some bits and pieces.

"What if Rachel still wants to meet Sera?"

"After all this? I'm hoping she'll finally see reason. I was told that if Rachel had arrived only a few minutes later, she might not have... You saved my world, Clark. Rachel should be awake soon."

When James got up to his feet, Clark did the same. He was anxious to see Rachel and even if James was going to mention he would inform Clark once Rachel was awake, he was going to see her regardless.

Clark looked back at his sister and managed half a smile before he made his way down the hall and disappeared inside the room his girlfriend was in.

Underneath the bedsheets laid Rachel Amber. She had regained the natural element of her skin tone but was still a bit pale now that she was recovering well after coming out of surgery just over an hour ago. The brunette's eyes didn't fall off of Clark as he made his way over to her bedside and sat down beside her near the end of the bed.

Her parents left the room to give them privacy.

Now that they were close up, Rachel could only just clearly see the wet streaks down his face beyond the stitches where he also got hurt. Clark took ahold of her nearest hand and cupped it gently in the palms of his hands.

"I'm so glad you're here, Clark." Rachel groaned weakly from how physically drained she was.

"Anything for you, baby. How do you feel? Do you need me to get you anything?"

A smile formed on her face in admiration of his devotion to her. Seeing him so gentle and loving towards her made her stomach do somersaults.

"You're so cute."

Clark blushed madly and muttered, "Stop."

"I mean it."

When she noticed he'd gone completely silent, it irked her that he looked so depressed. She could understand the situation she was in, but she was more worried that his mental state was taking its toll.

"Sweetie, what's wrong?" Rachel asked upon noticing the discolouration in his face.

It proved very difficult for Clark to fight back tears. Even though he'd been in that situation before where he struggled to keep his emotions in check, he was yet again disappointed by his lack of strength in hiding his pain.

"I'm sorry, Rach. I-I'm so sorry." He muttered, biting his lip to resist the urge to cry as tears began to build up.

"What? What for?" Rachel croaked hoarsely.

"You got hurt because of me. I failed to protect you - and you almost died because of me. Oh God, R-Rach... I can't fucking lose you. You mean the world to me. Y-You are my world, Rach. I love you so goddamn much, it'd kill me if I lost you."

Shocked, Rachel's eyes widened at his blurted confession. It took a minute for Clark to pick up on what he said, and when he did, his face was as red as a tomato.

"You... you love... me?" Rachel murmured.

There was hope in her eyes that he would confirm his love proclamation for her. Regardless of how early it was in their relationship, love was true and love was there. Clark found it difficult to look her straight in the eyes.

"Yes."

He met her stare where he found her smiling brightly at him. She struggled to sit up but was physically restrained by him putting his hand on her chest while he held her hand with the other. The hand that was on her chest moved up to her face where his fingers brushed hair off of her face and tucking some behind her ears. Rachel tilted and rolled her head into the palm of his hand out of comfort.

"Would you do something for me?"

"Anything."

"Sera." Rachel sighed deeply. "My mom. That's so weird to say. I'm not even sure what she is, honestly. But... I think I still want to meet her."

Clark stifled a chuckle while she brushed the back of her fingers around his wound. "Figures. Given your current state, you're in no state to do shit."

"I want to find her. I bet my dad has her number. Maybe in his office. Can you get Chloe to look? The key is under the mat, and the code for my dad's office is zero. Seven. Two. Two."

Rachel broke eye contact and rolled her head around to stare at the shrouded windows.

"You want me to stay with you?"

"Please..."

Sliding across just a bit to make room for Clark to lie down with her, Rachel felt weary and dozed off. Clark laid down on his back and made himself nice and comfortable before he messaged his sister the details of what he needed from her while he kept Rachel company.

To: Sis Hey, can I ask you for another favour?

From: Sis Sure. What do you need?

To: Sis Can you go to Rachel's place and see if you can find anything on a woman called Sera?

To: Sis Key should be under the doormat and the code to the office is 0-7-2-2.

From: Sis What's the address?

To: Sis Chlo, everybody knows where the Amber's live.

To: Sis I'm surprised you don't.

From: Sis Who's Sera? Is that Rachel's mom?

To: Sis Her biological mother. Ring me if you need anything.

Chloe took her leave from the hospital and made her way to her truck and then to the Amber residency she was supposed to know - although she did have an idea as to where it was since she had seen it once or twice before.

"So this is the place, huh? Neat crib." Chloe said to nobody but herself as she pulled up a bit down the road from the house.

Hopping out of the car, Chloe made her way up and across the driveway towards the front door. She then knelt down and lifted the doormat to collect the key underneath.

"What a cliché place to hide a key."

With the front door unlocked, Chloe entered the house where she got to explore the foyer; to almost her immediate notice, she spotted a security keypad. Chloe looked at her palm where she'd written the access codes and used that to disarm the alarm. Upon entering the room, Chloe found herself in James Ambers' office.

She first observed the statue on a shelf that read 'BEST DAD'. But when she shook it to see if it was a legitimate statue, she heard something rattle inside. When Chloe broke it, she found a key inside that was supposed to unlock something, so she stuck it in her pocket for safekeeping. She then observed a folder on the shelf that read a person's name.

Sheldon Pike.

It had very minimal significance to Chloe but she swore she had heard the name before somewhere.

Chloe logged onto the computer and scrolled through various with a woman whom she could assume was the person her brother was looking for. Alas, no hard evidence as to where she could be, only about her involvement with Rachel's father.

She then checked the drawers at the desk when she found one that contained booze and another that was locked. Using the key she found, Chloe unlocked the drawer and pulled out a shoebox that contained a phone and folded letters inside. The first thing Chloe looked at was the letters which would give her a good representation of what kind of a person James Amber was.

'To my Rachel,

My name is Sera, and I am your biological mother.

The first thing you should know about me is that giving you up was the worst mistake I ever made. I was struggling with something at the time, something I have been battling with ever since. That battle has taken everything from me, most importantly you. But now I am in a place where I know I can be a part of your life. It is more than I deserve, I know, but I would love to try if you want to.

Please take your time, and if you have anything to say, or any questions, hearing from you would mean the world.

I love you very much, and I hope to meet you soon.

Love,

Sera'

"Sera sent all these letters, and Rachel's dad never gave them to his own daughter? That's so messed up. No wonder Rachel asked us to find her mother. Damn. She was really trying to start a new leaf and be with Rachel." Chloe muttered to herself in disbelief.

Chloe then looked at the phone and accessed the 'CONTACTS' where only one was being messaged. An unknown/unidentified contact, of course. To gain an idea of the conversation, Chloe scrolled up to the top and read the messages.

From: ME I'm told you can help me with my problem.

From: UNKNOWN Crossing the line, huh? Let's talk.

From: ME Will call tonight.

From: UNKNOWN I found who you were looking for.

From: ME Call you in 15.

From: ME Well?

From: UNKNOWN This isn't a charity. I'm gonna need you to do what we talked about.

From: ME I can't.

From: UNKNOWN Sure you can. Because I talked to your girl, and she has a big mouth.

From: UNKNOWN Turns out she's not so easy. We're going to need be more hands on.

From: ME Don't hurt her.

From: UNKNOWN Relax. I've got my best guy on it.

The conversation then drew to today's events.

From: UNKNOWN How's your daughter?

From: UNKNOWN You know she attacked me first, right? Same as her boyfriend. You really should teach her to behave better.

From: UNKNOWN Nothing? Guess you don't need this taken care of anymore...

"James is working with... Damon Merrick? That guy with Frank at the junkyard? This is insane. What were they talking about? Is the 'girl' Damon's talking about Sera? Whatever is going on, I need to see if Damon knows where Sera is. But how do I get him to tell me?" Chloe spoke mentally.

From: ME Where is Sera?

From: UNKNOWN So we're using names now? Relax man.

From: UNKNOWN It's simple, either you do what I want, or your little problem becomes a big problem.

From: UNKNOWN Now, did you take care of the evidence, or not?

"Shit. What do I say?" Chloe cursed aloud.

From: ME You first.

From: UNKNOWN I know you're new at this, so I'll give you a pass. Don't fuck with me. Let's see proof of the evidence.

Frantically, Chloe scampered to find something suitable for her to satisfy Damon with. By looking across the room at a steel cabinet, Chloe searched it for something of use. Inside was evidence belonging to a previous crime that she hoped was related to Damon. She stopped short when she realised that anything could be the right bit of evidence, so she had to go on a whim and pray she could dispose of the right bit of evidence.

By taking out a glove in an evidence bag, Chloe dropped it in a bin and set it alight before taking a photo with the phone she was using and sent it to Damon.

From: UNKNOWN Since you're destroying evidence, might as well tell me which of my guys was the snitch.

"Fuck! I hope James has something to tell me who's been snitching."

From: ME I checked with the ABPD. There is no snitch.

From: UNKNOWN Bullshit.

From: UNKNOWN Tell me who it is. Or maybe you'd rather deal with your problem yourself?

By expanding her search on James Amber's computer, Chloe discovered a tab on the Arcadia Bay Police Department with information about one suspect who seemed to fit the profile of a snitch, on account of the report provided about the suspect's high cooperation with the ABPD regarding drug trafficking.

Not only was there information about him, but also on Frank Bowers; Chloe's drug dealer and another man associated with Damon Merrick.

From: ME The informant is Rodney Sears.

From: UNKNOWN Shit, really? I kinda liked the guy.

From: UNKNOWN Good work.

From: UNKNOWN Guess all that leaves is our hand off. Show me you have my payment and I'll tell you where to meet.

Chloe let out a frustrated grunt and searched the room once again for anything that could provide the payment Damon mentioned.

She did recall noticing sawdust out of her periphery upon examining the trophy. Chloe observed the bookshelf with the sawdust and moved five books to the side where she found a secret hole, which reminded her of the one where she hid a secret joint in her locker back at Blackwell Academy.

Inside was a stack of money that she drew out and took a photo of for Damon to prove the payment was there and ready to be exchanged for Sera.

Fortunately, Damon approved and sent a photo of Sera in exchange.

An obscured photograph of a blonde woman in an orange shirt and blue jeans tied to a chair provided information as to whom the woman everyone was after, while the background she recognised anywhere.

She was being held at the burnt down mill.
