Chapter 224 - Emma (4)

Jessica rolled her eyes at him and created a magic bubble around her which made her invisible. Robert made sure she was in a safe spot and then he turned into something he never thought he would have to 'A c.o.c.kroach', he took in a deep breath and began to move towards the house with his tiny legs getting annoyed with every step that slowed him down. 

He finally made his way into the house by crawling under the door and carefully began to survey his surroundings. After careful evaluation he found a place in the corner of the room where he could easily hide so he slowly made his way to that place and changed into his human form. 

Now he was easily able to negotiate the dangers as they expected he could see there were traps laid all over the place but the problem he was facing right now was which path to take. He knew he had to save Emma and protect Rachel at the same time or saving one may be dangerous to the other so the first thing he had to do was get rid of the traps and clear a way out for Jessica to enter. 

He carefully moved forward and killed all the guards quietly by placing a hand on their mouth so no one would know his presence. All the guards were taken down and not a single sound was heard, it was so skillfully done that if he was to rob a bank, no one would ever know about his presence. 

Next there was a door with a pass code on it, he linked it to his phone and easily hacked into the system, unlocking the door within a few minutes. He made sure the path was clear then he opened the door and went back to Jessica to bring her in. Both of them marched into the house silently and with full alertness and when they were in the depths of it Robert finally spoke "I am sure he must have kept Rachel in the bas.e.m.e.nt and in the same room as she described so we have to find Emma first. Initially we will just find out where she is and not do anything then I will go to where Rachel is and on the count of three we will together enter the respective rooms, you will save Emma and I will bring Rachel back."

Jessica thought for a while and said not satisfied by what he said "Why do I feel like it's not as easy as it sounds."

He looked at her and his tone was completely serious "That is because it is not, there will be someone guarding Emma and I will have to deal with Kevin. I am sure we are missing something about him or the way I beat him, even I could not get out of bed if someone had beaten me that bad."

Jessica felt a little scared but it was her duty to protect her best friend so she swallowed and taking a step forward said "Let's do it then."

Robert gave her an encouraging smile and nodded at her, with that Jessica moved forward looking for any clue of Emma. As they entered deep into the house, it kept getting darker. Although Robert could see even in the dark so he told Jessica slowly whispering in her ear making sure his voice was not heard, of someone was following them "Stay very close to me and do not move until I do."

She looked at him, not able to see his face but she could tell just by looking at the figure who it was so she replied "Alright"

Robert moved forward and Jessica traced his every step not taking the risk of exposure if her slightest step went wrong. They searched for nearly an hour when finally they stumbled upon a door that was well hidden in the darkness and in the depth of the wall. It all appeared really creepy but Robert walked in the door as Jessica slowly walked behind him. 

After walking in for a while finally a room came into view as it was lit brightly and they spotted Emma, lying unconscious on the bed. There were marks on her body as if she was a food and wolves had been fighting for her but they eventually gave up. Jessica was about to scream but Robert had anticipated that so he placed a hand over her mouth. She relaxed realizing the situation and nodded at him that she was ready to go ahead. 

They moved a little forward to have a good view of what was protecting her. She was lying in a glass cube, totally trapped and a lot of guards surrounding her. Jessica looked at Robert "I can deal with these guards but I don't know what to do with that glass cube in which she is trapped."

He looked at the guards and realized that no one was watching Emma instead they were watching guarding the room from any entry "Do one thing, they are not looking at her, use your magic and break that cube and do not make any sound."

She nodded and did as she was told but the problem was that the glass shattered into pieces with slot of noise making her panic. Robert came into action ready to run to Rachel because his power of teleportation was not working in this house as he had checked that on entering the house. He turned around and spoke "Start fighting and save Emma, I will go to Rachel."

He rushed out and ran out as fast as he could, he found his way through the darkness and to the room where Rachel was trapped in, what he didn't know was Kevin was smart enough to have set a trap for him in the room too. 

Robert broke the door and his gaze directly landed on Rachel, she was n.a.k.e.d and all covered in small cuts, his heart clenched and he ran towards her but as he stepped into the room, he was trapped. As he stepped his foot, metal bars appeared around him from the ground, it was so quick that he could not escape and was now trapped in a metal cage of his own size.

A loud laughter was then heard from behind him.
