Person Of Interest |Chapter 3|

I brushed my pink and black hair. It felt good to be clean again. I stare at myself in the mirror, listening to the old tv that was standing at the other side of the room.

"Tonight the police is looking for a homeless girl with pink and black hair for further questioning. The unidentified girl is believed to be a victim of a violent assault in the subway." I walk to the bed, where the remote was on and put the tv on a fight show.

I lay down on the bed and watch how two guys were fighting. I giggled because of the bad special effects but continue to watch anyway.

I lay back on my side and feel my eyes close, letting sleep take me over. A sweet release of all the trouble in this world.

~~~

A brown haired boy was standing next to the curtains. Looking around like he saw something. Like he was scared of something.

"Tyler what's wrong?"

He continues to look around.

"Hey? Tyler? What's wrong?"

He starts to shake his head.

"Tyler?"

~~~

The ringing of a phone woke me up.

I look around confused.

This is not the room where I fell asleep in...

I try to grab the phone that was standing on the nightstand when something stops me.

One of my hands... It was tied up to the bed with tie rips.

I struggle around but stop when I feel a sharp pain in my hand.

The phone ringed again.

I turn back around and grab it, it was the least I could do.

"You need to understand Miss. Martinez. The information I have is incomplete, but it's never wrong." I heard Mr. Finch say trough the phone.

"You need to know what it's like to be forced to listen someone get murdered and not being able to do anything about it." I start to get scared and struggle more against my tied up hand, not caring about the pain anymore.

He hung up. With wide eyes I throw the phone back where it was and look around for something sharp so I could get rid of the tie rips.

A scream came from another room.

I sit up straight as I hear another voice from that room.

Someone is being murdered in the room on the opposite of the hall and I'm just here waiting till someone can release me.

I look around the room when I get a idea. I grab the lamp that was standing on the nightstand and throw it to the mirror. I quickly grab a sharp piece of the mirror and use it on the tie rips.

I get released from the painful grip of the tie rips and rushed to the door. I didn't get a glance of the hotel hall and bumped into the door of the other hotel room the noises were coming from. The door fell down and I run inside.

I stop as I see a radio standing on a table, the screaming stopped.

Mr. Finch was sitting on a chair behind the radio, holding a newspaper.

"Too late" he looks up to me from his newspaper "this recording is three years old. A woman was murdered in this room by her husband." He shows me the newspaper. 'Four star homicide' it said.

"You were too late for her. Just like you were too late for your friend Tyler. You were halfway around the world when he was killed."

I gave him a death glare and ran up to him and pushed him against the wall.

"You don't know anything about it!" I yelled at him. "It's the truth" he was getting red because of my strong grip. "You left the government because they lied to you. I never will. I think all you ever wanted to do is protect people." He yelled now too.

I release him from my strong grip and try to catch my breath. I sit down on the chair he was sitting in before.

"You're not from the government." I whisper to myself, but just loud enough that he hears it too.

"No, I'm not." He sits down in a chair that was in front of me "I guess you can call me, a concerned third party. You couldn't have saved this woman"

I looked up to him.

"Or your friend. But you could've if you'd know in time. And that's the thing I'm offering you, a change for you to be there in time."

He hands me a picture of Marina, the girl from before.

"It's not too late for her. You could help me stop what's about to happen. The question is, will you?" I glance from him, to the picture​, then back to him and slowly nod.
