‘Oh honey, where is my little slut? My little whore? I wanna play with you.’
Holy knew that the monster was about to take advantage of her, she went into the closet and locked the door. Since the intruder had freed her, she had cleaned herself up and she was almost about to call the police. “Shit Holy, here was you’re chance!” she said in herself.
Butch was upstairs and about to open the bedroom where he thought his wife was still tied up helpless and waiting for his arrival. In the meantime, Mitch left the toilet and also went upstairs, using his trick to minimise the cracking noise once again.
Butch entered the bedroom but didn’t found what he was looking for. ‘Holy, where are you! Show yourself whore! Daddy wants to play with you.’ Butch went to the closet and found out it was locked. ‘So, my little pet wants to play a game, you know, you could have become a great model Holy. After tonight not anymore.’ Then a shadow he noticed came from behind him, he turned around but was too late. The guy hit him with a snow shovel…
…Butch wakes up completely naked wearing nothing more than women’s panties. He is tied to a tree in the cold outside. He recognizes the place, here it was where they put Doug. Then Mitch shows himself.
‘You’re not very kind to your wife Butch, you deserve to be punished.’
‘Who are you, crazy man!’
‘I am Mitch Crowne, mostly they call me a drifter, but I’d like to see myself as some private investigator. This is how it works, from now on, you talk about what you did, every time you stop, I’ll shoot you. Ready? oh, and don’t test me.’
‘Fuck you!’ (Mitch shoots in his left leg)
‘Do you want to life, Butch? (Butch nods) Talk!’
‘My wife (Mitch shoots in his right leg) damn it you crazy basterd!’
‘Just one more rule, you’re wife is what you call now you’re angel.’
‘Okay I killed him three years ago, he fucked my.. (sees how Mitch aims for his left arm).. made love with my angel three years ago. Rusty found out and warned me immediately. So, me and the boys went straight for the.. man to teach him a lesson. It got out of hands man, I killed him with a hammer. Once I started, man I couldn’t stop my arm from hitting him. Afterwards, I beat my angel every now and then, that is.. that’s it.. I swear!’
‘Good, see it isn’t that hard. Who is the man and what do you mean by boys?’
‘Doug Raid, the boys, Rusty, Simon and Richard. We got him to this place and wanted to scare him.’
‘Damn.’
‘What?’
‘I just wanted you to feel sorry for your former wife.’
‘Your shitting me right now?’
‘No. I recorded everything. You don’t deserve a second chance mate.’

In the evening while Lisa was on patrol, she decided to take a look at the motel where the stranger is supposed to be staying. When she arrives, she finds out that Holy McCool’s sits in front of one of the rooms. Inside the office, Lisa finds out that the stranger’s name is Mitch Crowne.
Wendy Wayne is about to leave the hospital when she notices the same Grey Ford, which was standing outside at the parking space, that was used to pick up Alan. She decides to wait a little bit longer. Eventually, tired of waiting she walks over to another room. There she can see who is in it.
One hour later a doctor finds out that Rusty is death. Was he killed?…
Chapter Five:
The Shotgun
Easing, March 17 2009
Butch’s body lies on the ground in front of Mitch. He check’s if the man is death or unconscious. He can still feel a heartbeat. Mitch grabs the guy by his shoulders and drags him downstairs. Eventually he loses his grip causing Butch to fall the last three steps and on his head. ‘Oh, that might hurt’, Mitch jokes. But he is still alive. Mitch rips all his clothes of and tapes his feet and arms with duct tape. Then he puts his socks in Butch’s mouth and tapes it. Eventually Mitch goes back upstairs where he is discovered by Holy.
‘Which panties were you wearing this day?’
‘Wont you threaten me to kill me if I say anything about you?’
‘I figure you won’t say much.’
‘What are you going to do?’
‘Let’s say I’m going to teach this guy a lesson, but I want you to put the panties you wore today on Butch. Just to give him a little reminder of what he had.’
‘A pussy to f*ck?’
‘No, his manhood.’
‘Are you going to kill him? Because I won’t mind.’
‘Listen Holy, you have dirty hands, so I’m not planning to do so. But if he’s found, he’ll go away for a while.’
‘Thank you.’
‘People are going to ask questions, you just say what you want to say, but keep me out of the picture.’
Mitch brings the shovel back to where he took it from. He didn’t clean off the blood because there are no traces of him left on it. When he returns to an unconscious Butch, he discovers that Holy did her job quite well. Butch body is put into the trunk of the old grey Ford and he drives away.
Easing, March 19 2009
As soon as Lisa is informed that Rusty has been murdered, she went to Wendy Wayne early in the morning to ask her some questions. She already knew they had to deal with a professional, but why does a professional kill him after he first let his victim alive?
(…)
‘So you say a stranger was waiting in the parking lot?’
‘Yeah, I don’t know what car he was driving, but I do know how he looked Lisa.’
‘I mean his face.’
‘Was it be a person with dark hair?’ Lisa asked
‘Yeh he had, half long hair, you know, like Henry Cavill I thought.’
‘Eyes, piercings?’
‘No, nothing of that all. However, he did have the beginnings of a beard.’
‘Can you be more specific?’
‘I thought he hadn’t shaved in four days.’
‘Thank you Wendy, please call me if you cook up anything more.’
‘I will Lisa.’
At the same time, the old grey ford passes Wendy and Lisa while Lisa was on her way out. Mitch takes a look at the two. Lisa was stunning, they did some good scouting work at the police academy.
In the afternoon, Simon Wilson and Richard Red arrive at the motel where Alan is the owner. The two remaining gang members pay a visit to Alan who is in their eyes collaborating with Mitch Crowne.
‘Here is our big hero Simon, faggot!’
(Richard grabs Alan by his shirt over the counter, together with Simon they pull the guy to their side.)
‘What the hell is this supposed to mean!’, Alan yelled.
‘Your friend in room four has a problem with how we life here.’
‘And why is it my problem, bunch of fuckheads!’
‘Richard.’ (Richard punches Alan in the stomach.)
‘Still a smart guy hah. Now does he pay well Alan?’
‘Answer the question faggot.’
‘F*ck you!’
Richard and Simon both start to fight with Alan. Eventually they stop when Alan has given up. Both Simon and Richard destroy Alan’s office. The computer, the chair, the counter and even the microwave. ‘So far for lunch…’
‘What did he say? Do I have to knock your teeth out to keep yah quit?!’ Richard said.
‘Hah, you can’t even spell the word.’
(Richard takes his gun but is stopped by Simon.)
‘Okay, that one you deserved Richard. Let’s not lose our minds here.’
‘Yeah bitch, listen to your pimp.’
(Simon kicks Alan against his head while Richard starts firing shots with his gun.)
At the same time in Mitch his room
‘Wow, did you hear that Mitch?’ Holy asked.
‘Gunshots. Alan has problems.’
‘Do you need to go?’
‘He needs me. And I kind of started these things.’
Mit
ch put on his trousers. Holy examines his well trained eight pack. He is maybe not the biggest person she knows, but he has an impressive body. Afterwards he kicks open his door and witnesses how Richard and Simon leave in Simon’s car. Mitch finds an almost unconscious Alan who laughs about what had happened.
‘Alan, you’re ok?’
‘You should see the other guys.’
(Both laughing.)
A few minutes later, Lisa appears and finds Mitch and Alan in the office. Alan has gained full conscious again and is treated by Holy. Mitch looks at the blonde deputy. He receives an angry look in return.
‘So, let me guess. Lisa said. No comments? No declaration?’
Alan looks at Mitch and then towards Holy.
‘Good guessing Lisa. You should be Chief of police instead of Roberts.’
‘Dammit guys, well okay, as you wish. Mitch Crowne?’
‘Asks who?’
‘Deputy Lisa Neagley mister. You must come with me.’
‘Is this an arrest?’
‘Not yet.’
‘Than I won’t go with you, unless this is a date.’
‘Mitch Crowne, put your hands where I can see them, as of now, you ARE under arrest.’
‘On which grounds?’
‘We figure it out at the station.’
An hour later when everyone had left, Alan looks around in his office and something snaps in him. He thinks about the harassments. Money will be the problem to rebuild this place. He already had trouble with paying the bills and now this shit. It’s such a mess. The thing that bothers him the most, is that Simon and Richard get away with it. Then he remembers what Mitch told him. That people life by rules that aren’t even there. Its hunt or being hunt. Are you a wolf or a sheep?
Alan walks towards room number four and finds nothing but a briefcase. He resists the temptation to look in it, perhaps because he’s afraid of Mitch. Definitely, because he’s afraid of Mitch. Then when he is about to leave the room, he sees the shotgun. A nice one too. For a moment there, he just stands there thinking about shooting both Simon and Richard. One minute later, he has left the room already. The shotgun is still at its place.
In the meantime at the police station
‘Mitch Crowne, who are you?’ Lisa asks.
No answer.
‘What do you do for a living?’
‘Nothing.’
‘Where do you life.’
‘Is this conversation going anywhere?’
‘Why? Do you have an appointment?’
‘Not really. I just don’t like wasting my time.’
‘Since your arrival, one person is killed, another is missing and a body is found outside town.’
‘Yeah I read that in the newspaper.’
‘You’re making it hard for yourself mister Crowne.’
‘Call me Mitch, and no I don’t. In about five minutes you’re going to say it’s a mistake.’
‘Funny man you are.’
‘If you say so.’
‘This is not the time to joke around mister Crowne.’
‘Listen to me Lisa Neagley. I like you. You are ambitious and motivated. But hey, there is never a right time. And there is no such a thing as coincidence. I think you agree with me. So, what does my sudden appearance say to you? I mean have you watched Fargo or something? I am not the answer miss Neagley. I am the question.’
‘Than what is the answer mister Crowne.’
‘Well misses Neagley, isn’t that were you are paid for to find out?’
‘You’re making a mistake mister Crowne.’
‘Like I sad. Am I free to go?’
‘You’ve been very helpful Crowne.’
(Crowne laughs and walks away)
‘I Know.’
Around 10 in the evening
Simon was watching television, while talking with Richard Red over the telephone. They discuss about the things that happened the last days and what they have done three years ago. The both blame Butch and agree that they can’t be harmed anymore. At the same time someone is walking towards the back of Simon’s house. The shadow doesn’t make clear who that person is, but he does has a shotgun with him. The man with the shotgun breaks in a glass and goes inside. Simon is warned…
Chapter Six:
He’s Called the Savage
Easing, March 20 2009
Mitch pulled over in Bouwman street. This was one street away from Domino street, the street where Simon Wilson lived in a land house. Mitch left his car and walked right into a firebreak. This led him behind the houses that were settled at Bouwman street. It was passed midnight which was for the better. No one was awake at this moment, at least not visible. Mitch climbed in a tree which stood at the end of the firebreak. Afterwards, he jumped over a wall landing in Simon’s garden. He wasn’t a gardener obviously. Most of his garden was made of stone, then there was this big ass pool and a hot tub and terrace made of wood attached to the house. The backdoor was open. When Mitch was about to enter, he saw one of the door’s windows was broken.
‘Alan, where are you?’
‘Mitch, come in here, help me man, I screwed things up.’
‘Then learn to be quiet fool.’
‘Okay, okay.’
Mitch walked towards the living room. But, even before he already figured out what Alan had done, Mitch lighted up a cigarette and let it all in. Bullet holes everywhere. Starting in the kitchen. All the way through the hall into the living room. From there it was also slippery, bloody. a real mess.
‘What the f*ck have you got yourself into Alan. You spilled more bullets than a warlord my friend.’
‘What can I say, I’m not a trained shooter Mitch.’
Mitch walked towards the death body of Simon.
‘Only four hits. Damn you’re not good. Not good at all.’
‘You think he’s death?’
‘Alan, of course he’s death. Look at the mess you made.’
Mitch stood up again and grabbed in his back pocket for a notepad. Then he picked up a pen which lay on the ground. He crossed something of a list and then threw away the pen. Then he noticed a bottle of Cointreau and grabbed it.
‘What are you doing Mitch, you’re supposed to help me..’
‘You have to earn my help Alan. So, this is how we going to do things. You get that body of him inside his car. In the meantime, I fix myself a drink.’
‘Why do you need a drink right now?’
‘Well because its past midnight Alan, and when its past midnight and I’m awake, I drink.’
Mitch poured in a glass of Cointreau while Alan grabbed Simon and dragged him towards the garage. A huge blood trace was created from the living room all the way to the garage. Mitch followed it with a glass in his left hand.. ‘You left a trail Alan.’
‘Shut up Mitch, I’m done. He’s in the trunk. What are we going to do now?’
‘You my friend, are going to get the f*ck out of here. And don’t say a word..’
‘I screwed things up badly didn’t I?’
‘You want to hear the truth?’
‘No, never mind. Holy shit, where is the shotgun?’
‘Luckily for you Alan, I’m here. Just go before you kill yourself.’
During that same night, Wendy Wayne spend hours looking at security tapes that she stole. She eventually finds footage of Simon and Richard that came to visit Rusty Wood, just before he was found death. ‘Could it be them?’ she asks herself. Wendy makes a copy and returns the footage back to the security room. She left the hospital and drove back to Easing where she dropped the photo’s at the police station. Then she went to her house to get some sleep.
Mitch drives in his Ford towards a place twenty kilometres outside Easing. He finds a remote spot far away in the countryside where his Simon’s car seems to be parked. He pulls over with the back of his car against Simon’s car and opens his trunk. Mitch steps out and opens the trunk of Simon’s car where Simon’s death body is still in. Then he throws Simon’s deat
h body inside his own trunk where another corpse can be seen wrapped in plastic. Mitch closes both trunks and drives a few metres away before he returns. He drives Simons car just before the edge of a canal called van Starckenborgh. Then he pushes with his ford the car of Simon into the deep water where after he leaves like nothing happened.
Lisa arrives at Richard’s house and wants to have a chat with him. But she discovers soon that Richard isn’t at home. Because Richard is not at home, she decides to pay a visit to Simon. But on her way to Simon’s house she gets phoned, its Chief Roberts. As she turns around, she can see how the grey ford Mitch is driving makes a right thus probably heading back for the motel.
At the motel, Holy McCools is trying to find Mitch. She isn’t really smart you could say, because his car wasn’t even in the parking lot. So, after waiting for more than five minutes, she decides to have a look in Alan’s office. At this moment, Alan was just changing his shirt because one of his wounds started to bleed. He tried to stitch it himself, but he wasn’t that experienced with stitching wounds. They were both caught by surprise when they bumped into each other.. Alan helps Holy to stand up again after she fell on her ass. Holy was surprised by the fact that Alan stood half naked in front of her.
‘What brings you all the way to here Holy.’
‘Right now, I just forgot. What happened with you? Still from yesterday?’
‘Yeah, it started to bleed again I guess.’
‘Why didn’t you visit Wendy, she could patch you up.’
‘I am really not in the mood for others to start asking questions.’
‘Well let me have a look at it, I was once a nurse.’ Holy used Alan’s first aid kit to stitch the open wound. First she cleaned the wound with alcohol before she discovered the wound was cause by fork. Then, she stitched the wound and at last she put a plaster on it. Holy stood right in front of Alan and the two looked right in each other’s eyes. They started kissing. Alan grabbed Holy at her sides while Holy put her arms around Alan’s neck.
