Jason sat in the dimly lit room of the police station, his mind racing with thoughts of how he could prove his innocence. As he pondered his next move, the door creaked open, revealing three familiar faces. It was the drone boy, accompanied by his friends, the other two of the crew. Their concerned expressions mirrored Jason’s own turmoil.“Jason, we heard what happened,” the drone boy said, his voice filled with genuine worry. “We know you didn’t do anything wrong as I have explained to everyone what happened that day. We want to help.”Jason’s eyes brightened with a glimmer of hope. “Thank you, guys. I really appreciate your support. But how can we prove that I didn’t do it? The evidence seems stacked against me.”“ truthfully, I need them to trust my words but they are not. They didn’t even believe Ashley.” Jason said.“To say they didn’t trust Ashley who was directly involved.” The drone boy said. One of them, always the resourceful one, spoke up. “Well, what if we could find the
Jason and his friends were left alone by the police officer after he had gotten an apology from them.“I love the team work just now, thanks for covering up for this dude” Jason said to them all.They gave him a weary smile. “That was nothing you know.”Jason held their hands on the table. “I’m sure I picked the best team.” he said to them. There was this atmosphere that exhume love, care and kindness, they all looked at each other with those eyes and the mood in the room was pensive.“Jason, you said something came to you earlier, what could that be?” one of the team asked him.“The thing is very simple though” he clears his throat and lean well on the table as if to call their attention to something that must not be heard by others.“Can videos be saved and retrieved on your drone?” Jason asked the drone boy in a very low but audible whisper.“Sure, so far I pressed the save button on the drone.” He responded. Wondering what Jason would do with what he is asking.The room was fill
Ashley has been grounded since she got back from the police station after the heartfelt talk with Jason. Her father wouldn’t let anyone in or allow her have her phone.He had warned the security men not to allow her step out of the house and not to allow her have anyone come in either.She really wanted to be there for Jason as all the mess started with her and the only way she could help was by standing next to him agitating and proving his innocence even though no one is believing her. Not even her Dad Ashley's heart pounded in her chest as she stood face to face with her father in the living room. She couldn't understand how he could be so blind, so dismissive of her plea for justice. Her voice trembled with frustration as she argued her case for Jason's innocence."He's not a dirty boy, Dad! He's my friend, and he would never do something like that!" Ashley's voice wavered, a mix of anger and desperation lacing her words.Her father's face remained stern, unmoving. "I've made up
Through the cold, metal bars of the cramped cell, Ashley and Jason held onto each other's hands tightly, their tears mingling in the dim light. It was a scene of desperation, regret, and a shared sense of injustice.The tears rolling down their cheeks would be now filled a whole bucket. She had that tears on and kept trying to clean it which she eventually didn’t bother again. She just allowed it flow.Even Jason couldn’t hold his tears. They kept streaming down his face like runny water and they both already have a runny nose as it shows through their sniffing at intervals. Ashley's sobs echoed through the cold, sterile walls as she poured out her heart, burdened by guilt for the trouble she had unwittingly caused Jason. "I'm so sorry, Jason," Ashley managed to say amidst her tears. "I never wanted any of this to happen. I never wanted you to be dragged into it." Jason, his own eyes brimming with tears, squeezed her hand gently, assuring her, "Ashley, none of this is your fault. I
She was walking through the room, trying to do hard to fix herself on something. It was a very hard time on her part too as she tried her best to not get moved by what the society calls stress.She was thinking so hard that steam was starting to exhume from her head. It struck her that she should call for help. She needs to do something as soon as possible to let out Jason. Ashley’s trembling hand pressed the dial button on her phone, hoping against hope that the leader of the Big Five would answer. After several agonizing rings, a gruff voice picked up on the other end, annoyance lacing his words.“What is it now?” the leader snapped, clearly irritated by the unexpected call.“It’s me,” Ashley managed to say, her voice quivering. “I need your help. It’s about Jason.”A derisive chuckle emanated from the phone. “You must be truly stupid to think I can be jailed,” the leader mocked.“you see, in this world of ours, you need to understand that power is everything. That’s what I have an
Ashley’s eyes widened in disbelief as she took in the sight of the room, filled with an unexpectedly large number of people. She mustered the courage to ask the Big Five leader what was happening, her voice betraying her confusion. “What’s going on?” Ashley questioned, her tone laced with both curiosity and concern. The Big Five leader’s response was laced with amusement as he mockingly replied, “Relax, Ashley. We’re just here to have some fun. Don’t worry, we won’t bite.” She reminded him firmly, “I’m here for you, not all of them.” The leader chuckled dismissively, his voice dripping with condescension. “Oh, Ashley, don’t be so uptight. They’re just here to enjoy themselves, and so are we. Loosen up a bit.” Ashley’s unease grew, but she played along, unwilling to reveal her true intentions. When offered a drink, she declined at first, but under the watchful eyes of the Big Five, she reluctantly accepted the first cup. However, once the others were distracted, she discreetly pour
Ashley’s heart sank as she entered the room and saw the Big five members, all undressed and inebriated, waiting for her. Fear gripped her as she questioned their intentions, her voice trembling with a mix of confusion and desperation. “What is going on here?” Ashley demanded, her voice quivering. “I told you I came here for the Big five leader, not for this. I don’t understand why you’re all undressed and behaving like this.” The Big five members burst into laughter, their drunken state making them oblivious to Ashley’s distress. They taunted her, making crude gestures and inappropriate remarks, their actions fueled by a toxic mix of power and alcohol. One of the members, his speech slurred, slung an arm around Ashley’s shoulder. “Hey, sweetheart, relax! We’re just having some fun here. You’re a pretty thing, and we thought you’d enjoy joining in.” Ashley’s eyes filled with tears as she pleaded with them, her voice choked with fear. “Please, I’m begging you, stop this. I only came
This chapter of the story revealed that Ashley’s suspicion had nothing to do with trying to get the Big five leader to confess. After the ordeal, Ashley had retreated into herself and had hardly spoken to anyone about what had happened. While she was alone in the room, the Big five leader came in and tried to talk to her. Ashley had been scared, but as the leader talked, she realized that his intentions were not bad after all. He was genuinely concerned for her wellbeing and wanted to help her. Acting like she is Feeling guilty for the way she had treated him earlier, Ashley apologized to the Big five leader for her behavior. “I’m sorry I accused you of thinking I was trying to get you to confess,” she said. “It’s okay,” the leader replied. “I understand why you were suspicious. But I promise you, that was not my intention.”“I am also sorry for my suspicions. Also for the tape, I’m not so proud of it, but if not for that, you won’t be here currently” Jacob said to her. Ashley smile
