I had just gotten back to the surface and was about to head back to the beach when I got a call from Makai. He told me that Abraham had decided to put the big plan into action. From there I was told that I needed to make sure that the girl I had just went to see was at the hospital before the morning.
Did they not know what I had already done? Did they know what kind of work it was going to be for me to bring that evil girl to the surface and then to the hospital? Hahh. This was going to be a long night for me.
I agreed to it, though. After having heard the entire story about what had happened and why she needed to be there, I had no choice. Not to mention, this was another strike against the girl. This would just be one more thing that they could use to punish her.
Right now, I needed to head straight back down to where I had just been. You know, it's a damn good thing that I love to swim. Oh, and let's not forget that it's a really good thing that I actually have the authority to take that girl out of the prison and do what needs to be done.
When I showed back up at the prison, they were surprised to see me. And needless to say, the captain of the Mer Army that had been put in charge of this prison was even more surprised when I told him about what we needed to do.
It took us about an hour to get things prepared, and another two hours to finally get fed up with Brittney's attitude and just sedate her so that we could take her to the hospital for Justin. We hadn't told her why she was leaving her cell, we couldn't risk that, so she had thrown a temper tantrum and tried to physically fight with the different guards. Now that she was sedated though, it would be easy enough to get her up to the surface.
Dammit, this meant that I needed to prepare a few other things as well. I had almost forgotten how I was going to get her to the hospital without amassing concern. I mean, she was going to appear to be unconscious, or dead.
I would need to hire an ambulance to take us there. Not one that was reputable and run by a legitimate company, but one that was typically used for shady dealings like that. The more you know of the darker side of society, the more resources, such as this, that you have at your disposal.
Thankfully, I had a few contacts and was set to arrive at the hospital sometime around ten this evening. That should be plenty of time to get this whole thing done before the boy was to go into surgery.
But damn, I just can't believe that Abraham had actually managed to pull this off. That man had an amazing gift for planning and executing strategies. He was the best tactician that I knew, and that was saying something with all the military experts I knew in the sea. Abraham was a force to be reckoned with, that was for sure.

Ocean and I hurried away from our house and to the hospital. After the other officers arrived, they no longer acted like we were suspects of some kind. And they greatly appreciated the fact that the entire incident was caught on camera. That would make it a lot easier for them to investigate. And when Dr. Malachi proved that there were no other injuries or drugs or anything like that to have caused the accident, then they would know that we hadn't harmed Justin in any way. No matter what Ocean thought or felt.
And I truly wanted to make him stop feeling so guilty right now. He's had a rough couple of weeks, and I know that it has been taking its toll on him. He needed some time alone, some time to relax. What he needed more than anything else, was some tender loving care. And I would love nothing more than to give it to him.
We had a little more work to do right now though. We needed to play our parts in the rest of this. We needed to see it through to the end. That was our only choice. Our only option.
When we got to the hospital, we were taken back to a special waiting room that Dr. Malachi had prepared for us. We were also given Justin's phone so that we could call his parents.
The numbers were stored in the phone, obviously. And thankfully, the phone did not have a screen lock on it. We were able to open it up with no issues at all. None of us had thought to ask him about his phone while he was hypnotized. That could have been an issue.
"Justin? Is something the matter? You never call, you usually just text." I heard a slightly surprised female voice on the other side of the call.
"Hello, is this Mrs. Jeffries?" I asked her, letting her know that I was not her son.
"Who is this? How did you get that phone? What do you want?"
"Is this Justin's mom? Is this Mrs. Jeffries?"
"Yes. Who is this?" She was even more worried now.
"My name is Makai, and I am a teammate of Justin's."
"I have heard of you. Didn't he go to your house today? What happened to him? Where is he?"
"He is at the hospital, Trinity hospital." I made sure to clarify this for her. "While he was at my house, he got a headache and left. However, he didn't make it out of the driveway. He seems to have passed out while driving. A family friend was at the house, he's a doctor and he is taking care of Justin now."
"Oh my God. Is he going to be OK?" I could tell that she had moved past the angry worried stage and was into the frantic stage. "Tell me what's happening to him right now. Tell me what I need to do."
"Dr. Malachi told us to have you come to the hospital. He is with Justin now. He's getting a scan of his head done."
"A scan? Like an MRI or a CT Scan? Oh my goodness, is it that serious?" She was in a slightly depressed state now.
"I don't know, Mrs. Jeffries. I will be here, and I will find out whatever I can before you arrive."
"Thank you. We will be there soon. If you see him before we do, tell him we will be there as soon as we can and that I love him."
"Yes Ma'am, I will."
With that, the call ended and my job for the time being was done. There was nothing else for me to do but wait for the next phase of our plan.
**Getting The Parents**

Analise

Originally, the girl was never going to see her father again. That was something that we had all agreed on. As sad and heartbreaking as that might seem, it was the way that it needed to be. None of us planned on bringing the girl back from the prison. She was going to be having her trial there and fulfilling her sentence there.
However, new information had come to light and that had meant that we needed to deviate from that plan. This deviation allowed for the girl's father to see her one last time before she was put on trial.
There was no way for the human man to make it to the prison and survive. It was too far below the surface of the water and any equipment that he might use for deep sea diving would not work within the domed prison. This was the only chance he had to see her.
And of course, being the bleeding heart that he was, Reef insisted on having the man here to see his daughter and tell her that he loved her. Of course, he insisted on this being for the father and not for the girl. I could relate though. If the situation was reversed, I would want to see my son again. No matter what had happened, I would want to see Makai.
It was a quarter after nine in the evening when I went to visit with the Cartwrights. When I knocked on their door and waited for them to open it. Though it wasn't them that opened it.
A female staff member opened the door and greeted me.
"Yes? May I help you?" She didn't seem all that happy to see me. I could guess that none of the people in the house were happy right now. Given what had happened recently and all.
"Good evening. My name is Analise Rivers, I am here to see Mr. and Mrs. Cartwright." She could immediately tell that I was here for Brittney and I could practically hear her saying to herself 'what did she do now'.
"Come in, please. I will take you to see them."
The woman let me into the house and led me straight to the living room where I saw a very dejected looking man and woman sitting on the couch. They weren't watching TV, they weren't talking. They were just sitting there.
"I have a Ms. Rivers to see you." Their heads popped up and it was clear that they recognized the surname.
"Are you with the other man? The one from before?" Mrs. Cartwright's eyes were focused intently on me.
"I am indeed. I would like to talk to you, privately." They understood and rose from their seats.
"Come with us to the office." Mr. Cartwright said as he started to lead the way from the room.
I tried my best to remain calm and professional as I followed the grieving parents from the living room to the office. Once we were inside, the door locked to stop us from being interrupted, I started the conversation without being prompted.
"As you have already guessed, I am here about your daughter. I am the wife of the man you spoke with before."
"What is happening now? Is there something wrong with our daughter?" The father was on the verge of tears now.
"There has been a new development. It seems that your daughter put a spell on a boy from school. Aside from attempting to put one on my son. The boy in question is Justin Jeffries and he is currently in the hospital. I do not think that the reason he is in the hospital is related to your daughter, however we need to have her remove the spell on him. I am sure you know that there are consequences if we do not have it removed." I saw that she was nodding in understanding. She was fully aware of what needed to be done.
"What did she try to make him do?" Mr. Cartwright asked me after that. I was reluctant to answer, given the state they were in now. However, not knowing would be just as bad as knowing. I gave in and decided to tell them.
"She tried to get him to kill her ex-boyfriend."
"OCEAN?!" The two of them said his name loudly.
"Yes. Apparently, she was upset that he would not take her back. She couldn't deal with that and ended up trying to have him killed. She very nearly succeeded too, since Ocean was in the hospital just recently."
"Oh my God!" I watched as all the color drained from Mrs. Cartwright's face.
"The reason I am here," I told them as I tried to move on, "is because your daughter is being taken to the hospital that Justin is at. She will remove her spell from his mind before he goes into surgery. While she is at the hospital, you may briefly visit her. I know that this may be your last chance to see her for a while, Mr. Cartwright. That is why my husband and I wanted to give you this opportunity."
"Thank you. Thank you so much." Tears poured down the man's cheeks.
"When should we be there?" When should we leave to see her?" Mrs. Cartwright was just as moved as her husband had been.
"Now would be the best time. Prepare yourselves and anything that you wish to bring with you. I will escort you there and mediate the meeting with your daughter."
"Yes. Yes, right away. We will get ready right away."
"Thank you. Thank you so much. From one mother to another, I can't express how much this means to me and how much I appreciate what you and your husband are doing for us."
I tried not to show how much that was upsetting me. I didn't want to cry in front of these people. I never wanted to cry in front of anyone, except for my husband and close family members.. I didn't like to show that sort of weakness.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

I know that this may be your last chance to see her for a while, Mr. Cartwright. That is why my husband and I wanted to give you this opportunity.""Thank you. Thank you so much." Tears poured down the man's cheeks."When should we be there?" When should we leave to see her?" Mrs. Cartwright was just as moved as her husband had been."Now would be the best time. Prepare yourselves and anything that you wish to bring with you. I will escort you there and mediate the meeting with your daughter.""Yes. Yes, right away. We will get ready right away.""Thank you. Thank you so much. From one mother to another, I can't express how much this means to me and how much I appreciate what you and your husband are doing for us."I tried not to show how much that was upsetting me. I didn't want to cry in front of these people. I never wanted to cry in front of anyone, except for my husband and close family members.. I didn't like to show that sort of weakness.
